Makeup Tips

One of the first makeup tips you should survey is the importance of finding the right foundation. It could be the difference between looking as if you have naturally perfect skin or as if you are wearing a mask.
Most women have yellow-based skin. They include most Caucasians and all Asian, Latin and African women. To get that perfectly natural, perfect look they need to wear foundations with a yellow base.
Most foundations on the market however have pink or orange tones. Women wearing these foundations often end up looking artificial, ashy and two-toned. The only true yellow based foundations on the market are manufactured by Sacha Cosmetics.
We also manufacture maximum coverage mask foundations. It has overwhelming coverage, great staying power and is very natural-looking.
After getting your foundation right, the next step is to follow the makeup tips we have provided for you. With a little practice, you will be amazed how easy it is for you to learn to apply your makeup as professional makeup artists.
Pedicure tips
Follow these 10 pedicure tips, and your feet will thank you for it.
• Pedicure tip 1. Remove polish from toenails.
• Pedicure tip 2. Fill tub or footbath with warm-not hot-water. Add your favorite bath salts and one tablespoon of olive oil. The salts soften dry skin and calluses, and the olive oil moisturizes the skin. Soak feet for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Pedicure tip 3. Gently rub an exfoliating body scrub on the bottoms of your feet. Rinse your feet with cool water. Rub your heels and the balls of your feet with a pumice stone to remove dead skin and soften-not remove-corns and calluses. Don't use a callus razor, an instrument used for shaving dry skin from the feet. Removing corns and calluses in this manner can lead to serious foot infections.
• Pedicure tip 4. Thoroughly dry your feet with a clean towel.
• Pedicure tip 5. Trim toenails, cutting them straight across to prevent ingrown nails. Gently push back cuticles with an orange stick. Don't cut your cuticles, just gently push them back. Cuticles are necessary to prevent bacteria from entering the skin.
• Pedicure tip 6. Moisturize your entire foot-including your cuticles and in between your toes-with a good foot cream. Massage cream into skin.
• Pedicure tip 7. Apply a clear polish to your toenails. Wait a few minutes until the polish is dry.
• Pedicure tip 8. Apply a color polish to your toenails. For more intense color, repeat.
• Pedicure tip 9. Apply a clear polish to help prevent chipping.
• Pedicure tip 10. Clean up stray color with a Q-tip dipped in nail polish remover.
Allow toenails to dry for at least 30 minutes-several hours when possible-to prevent smudging.
