This is part 2 of some tips from Mally Roncal, celebrity makeup artist and the creator of Mally Beauty, a line that she has spent several years creating.
LA Times Image section’s Alene Dawson Special to the Los Angeles Times. Alene’s story is about how to come-back after pulling an “all-nighter” or a series of late nights with early mornings. I am not covering all the content that she talked about –which is definitely worth reading. However she did do a Q&A with Mally Roncal, founder of MallyBeauty and celeb makeup artist– which parts of her Q&A wil be featured.
What I have done is find the videos from MallyBeauty’s youtube.com channel so that you can get more information and indepth 411 on how to correct or apply the essential information of the tip she gave the LA Times.
Skin: “Radiant skin is the No.1 secret to looking awake. One of my secrets is that I always wear an under-makeup primer before I put on foundation.”
Here’s Mally talking more about her products that work for that tip.
Eyes: “Either brighten the eye area with light makeup or, if you have dark circles, break out a dark pencil for a smoky eye and go with it.”
Shimmer and highlighter: “Shimmer powder is ruining the universe because so many people are using it the wrong way. It [should be] used to highlight the highest areas of the face so that you look bright and lifted. If you take shimmer powder and put it all over the place, you just end up looking like the Tin Man in ‘The Wizard of Oz.'”
Blush: “If you’re not wearing blush at all or you’re not wearing a brightening blush, you are actually making yourself look more tired. So all of those tawny, beige, brown blushes are going to make you look more tired. The secret is a healthy pop of color such as a beautiful, fresh pink-peach cheek with a hint of golden radiance to really wake up the face. Apply not only on the apple of the cheek but a little tiny bit on the highest point above the eyebrow.”
Brows: “Filling in your brows can make you look more awake and 10 years younger.”
Lips: “When you’re tired, don’t use lipstick because it’s so drying. Use a lip gloss with a pink shine to it.”
