Back-To-School Make-up Tips...

<div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Oh yes, its that time again. The time where shops turn into classrooms, parks turn into text books and minutes turn into long, dragged out hours.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><em><strong>Oh yes, summers over, school here I come!</strong></em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Many of you may have returned to school already, but I start back at the dreaded building next Monday, like many of the other schools in England. Summer always seems to go way too fast, and although at the beginning of my 6 week holiday I made a vow this was going to be the best Summer ever, I very much doubt I've fulfilled this promise. However, its time to turn off my lazy, summery self and switch into geeky school Hannah! ;)</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">My school is pretty strict on the old uniform front, even going so far as to ban makeup, <em>shock horror</em>!</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Of course, me being the makeup addict that I am, there are always ways around this little problem. I know, I'm a rebel, tee hee! The teachers are extremely strict on uniform, although with makeup not so much, Ive only ever been caught out twice in my 4 years at the school. Here's what I wear, makeup wise, most days to school...</span><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq4QIUjyx7fD_XX7feX5lwhOg-vQugtSQ6qti70j7qwrXEsXdJiVvwJWD_7qJlm9FdDkgjVyS-9l9NoaOEiTWWg4szNd2mRnELp5ueT-WYaZdq9HY0IpQgFJcL_UN78QJXJJ1G9B9u-6Z-/s1600/DSCN4284.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq4QIUjyx7fD_XX7feX5lwhOg-vQugtSQ6qti70j7qwrXEsXdJiVvwJWD_7qJlm9FdDkgjVyS-9l9NoaOEiTWWg4szNd2mRnELp5ueT-WYaZdq9HY0IpQgFJcL_UN78QJXJJ1G9B9u-6Z-/s400/DSCN4284.JPG" width="272" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgopy8xENWylmgnw9UMnguaSEFIaWooLCJ2aMrNOZqy6rU5N6EqkbhaioDaDfXE5CN385D9A0_j-sz5U9p1EfZyTojJfjSpQIjjPMKAQWkxq2pQrNrhun7RFpE3wGpIukVGRGMG0sJJmpMh/s1600/DSCN4292.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" ox="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgopy8xENWylmgnw9UMnguaSEFIaWooLCJ2aMrNOZqy6rU5N6EqkbhaioDaDfXE5CN385D9A0_j-sz5U9p1EfZyTojJfjSpQIjjPMKAQWkxq2pQrNrhun7RFpE3wGpIukVGRGMG0sJJmpMh/s400/DSCN4292.JPG" width="277" /></a></div><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif; font-size: x-small;"><em>Excuse the pyjama top, it was a lazy day :)</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><strong>I'm wearing...</strong></span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">ELF Under Eye Concealer & Highlighter</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">ELF Warm Bronzer</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">Natural Collection Blush in Pink Cloud</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">Benefit Eye Bright in inner corner, waterline and on brow bone</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">Max Factor Masterpiece Beyond Length Mascara</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">Miss Sporty Eyeliner Pencil in Brown on the very outer corner and smudged under eye</span><br /><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia;">Natural Collection Lipstick in Apple Blossom</span><br /><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">The key to having undetectable makeup at school is using everything in moderation. My top tips are...</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ Use tinted moisturiser instead of foundation for a lighter coverage and a less noticeable base. Blend well and in particular get a perfect colour match to your skin, so it looks virtually undetectable. And if all else fails, claim its a moisturiser, not makeup!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> ♥ Dust a sparing amount of a matte bronzer and/or blush to warm up your skin tone and make you look more awake in the mornings.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ Step away from the sparkles! Nothing is more noticeable than when you look like Edward Cullen walking down the corridors!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ If you have blonde hair, possibly try a brown mascara. Blonde eyelashes are always noticeable when coated in black mascara, but brown is a more subtle and natural way to <span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">achieve<span style="color: #666666;"> gorgeous eyes!</span></span></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ Curl your eyelashes to open your eyes and look more awake.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ Use a light reflecting concealer to make you look more awake after those early mornings.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">♥ Use a pale pink/pale yellow/ white liner in your water line and inner corners to brighten up your eyes and smudge a small amount of brown liner on the very outer corner of your eyes to make them darker and smokier. To look like you have thicker lashes, line your top waterline with black liner, but not the bottom, as that's pretty bam in your face makeup.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"><em>A quick rant...</em></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">How does makeup affect my learning!?!?! Arghh! Who are my teachers to say that I can't wear makeup when most of the girls at my school feel ugly and insecure without it. Makeup is a form of self expression and art and should not be stopped, it should be celebrated. My school seems to care more about my appearance than my education...
