10 beauty fixes for a fabulous new look
– Illuminate your brow bone

– Pump up your lips
After exfoliating your lips, apply a gloss that contains plumping ingredients such as ginger or peppermint.
– Try a new perfume
Switch up your scents to mimic your moods and try perfumed lotions or mists for more variation.
– A hairstyle a day
Change up your style every day – go straight one day, add curls the next, try a ponytail one day and then a messy bun. Even changing your parting from the centre to the side can dramatically alter your look.
– Try clip-ins
Clip-on ponytails can make you feel instantly chic and are easy to put in your hair. Start with a high ponytail and then clip in your hair piece. You can also try clip-in extensions to get instant long hair. Remember to find ones that are made of real hair so you can style with ease.
– Illuminate your face
Before applying your foundation, dab an illuminating cream all over your face and blend well. Once you apply your makeup, your skin will look as if it is glowing from the inside out.
– Sculpt your face
Try this trick from Too Faced Cosmetics: Lose ten pounds instantly by applying a matte brown contouring powder (such as Too Faced Chocolate Soleil) to the hollows of your cheeks, on your temples, across your forehead, down the sides of your neck and under your nose.
– Top it off
A stylish hat can instantly change your attitude – try a fab fedora or printed bucket hat to add
instant chic sentiment.
