RADIANT ROSY CHEEKS

1. COLOR: The best color blush is one that matches your natural flushed skin tone [links the color of your cheeks after your exercise]. Another way to choose is to match your blush to your lip color.

2. FORMULA: The type of blush you should use depends on your skin type. Powders are best for oily and combination skin, while creams work better on dry skin.

3. BRUSH: don't even think about using the tiny brush that came with your blush! Trade it for a large, professional, full brush that will give you maximum coverage.

4. SMILE: blush should be applied to the apple of your cheeks. Smile in a mirror so you know exactly where you should apply.

5. APPLY: using your large brush, sweep powder blush up your cheek bone towards your hairline. Dab cream blushes on with one finger and use your clean fingers to blend.

* BONUS: clean your brushes with baby wipes to keep them bacteria free...

MAKE UP TO GET THE JOB

    Interview make up should be nude and polished! For a professional look apply foundation, light blush, neutral color eye shadow, a little mascara and some light lipstick or gloss.
   
*FOUNDATION: to get a clean and polished look focus on foundation. Check your makeup in natural light to make sure that your coverage is consistent, smooth and flawless.

*EYEBROWS: make sure that your eyebrows are trimmed and shaped. They should look clean, but not overly plucked. Use a pencil that is the same color as your hair to fill in any spars spots.

*LIPS:
absolutely no bright color! Put on a clear close or very a sheer, light color. This will help you avoid having to worry about whether or not you have lipstick on your teeth!

BRIGHT EYES

1. Start with a base. Put concealer on your lids to hold the color in place.

2. Stick with a bright eyeliner or a bright shadow. Do not go over board with both.

3. Do not ever put a bright shadow from eyelash to eyebrow. Start at your lash line and blend up into a more subtle shade. Do not use the brighter color past your crease line.

4. Draw a line along your lower lashes with a liner in the same color or use a lash brush and powder.

5. Smudge a bit of lighter color (like or white) in the corners of your eyes. This will open them up and make your eyes appear larger.
