Dear Constant Reader,
Use clear mascara to set your brows.
Especially helpful if you use powdered color on them. You can get expensive brow setting gel, but this works just as well.
Friday Tip!
Dear Constant Reader,
Today’s tip comes from Betty Blaize.
You can’t overestimate the impact of an eyelash curler for making your eyes look bigger. When the lash is framing your eye, not covering your eye, the impact is enormous.
Making Up
Dear Constant Reader,
In my everyday life, I’ve been using a black liquid eyeliner for my usual pin-up make up. However, for The Wrathskellar I wanted a more dramatic eye. The liquid liner just wasn’t working for me. I couldn’t get the line even and thick enough. I tended to get big, wet patches, which I’d invariably smudge.
Enter gel eyeliner. This is my new favorite stuff: thick and easy to paint on, dries quickly, and waterproof. I’m sure you all have been using this for ages, but it was a revelation to me, so I’m spreading the gospel. I’m using this stuff, but there are plenty of other brands out there.
A little tip for you
Dear Constant Reader,
Friday seems to be tip day!
When working with feathers, confetti, glitter, or anything small and floaty, avoid wearing lipgloss. It’s very sticky and all those light little bits will stick to it.
Oh, The Glamourous Life!
