Have you ever wondered how to get the nice fresh look that many celebrities have? Well, below are some simple and easy techniques that help you give your makeup a natural, fresh, and beautiful look.
Technique Number One
For softer definition, just fill in the gaps between your upper lashes and in brow spaces. This gives you a nice fresh look.
Technique Number Two
Make the most of your mascara wand. Jiggle it at the lash base for more intense definition. Use the tip to build outer lashers.
Technique Number Three
Highlights and lowlights, intensified eye color, smoky eyes… the effects of a quad eye shadow are endless.
Technique Number Four
For a more natural look, apply lip liner after lip color, and pick a color that matches your lip tone.
Technique Number Five
Don’t be afraid to try a new shade or finish of lip color. Think of it as a mini vacation for your lips. You can always come home to your favorite color.
Technique Number Six
For the most irresistible, juicy pout, lavish your lips with a hi-gloss shine.
Technique Number Seven
Less is more. Apply your foundation before your concealer. You’ll use less makeup and look more natural.
Technique Number Eight
Before you clip, snip, smooth, and shape your nails, soak your hands and feet to soften your skin and cuticles.
Three Bonus Tips
Do you want lashes that last? Then replace your mascara every three months. This will help keep your lashes from drying out and breaking
Summer is almost here. Even with sunscreen, your skin tone gets deeper in the summer. Go a shade darker than you do in the winter for a more natural look.
You can have too much of a good thing – too much fragrance can drive people away. You’ll know you’re wearing the right amount of fragrance if only you and someone close enough to embrace you is able to catch the scent of it.
Eye products should be used as the last step in your daily skin care regimen after cleansing, toning, treating and moisturizing.
I hope you have enjoyed these tips and techniques. Having that look of natural beauty doesn’t have to cost you a lot of money and time.

The Secret to the Best Day Spa in London Revealed - Ethos the Spa
The town of Spa in Belgium has long drawn people to use its name for its famed curative properties of its mineral springs. Since the medieval times, the association of spas with water and the earth’s minerals has only grown.
“Ethos” meaning “character”, “knowledge” or “expertise” is what influenced Katina Kritikos’s decision on a name for her spa. She wanted a strong name that would reflect and represent the work and dedication that occurred behind her spa doors and found it fitting to call it Ethos. Located in London, this spa uses the elements from the earth and sea to create new and innovative treatments to relax, rejuvenate and refresh the mind, body and soul of its customers.
Katina wanted to take the concept of ‘spa’ to new heights by emphasizing holistic care that balances science and nature. She believes that indulging in a luxurious spa treatment is good for your body and soul, allowing you the time to re-connect with yourself. By incorporating aromatherapy, reflexology and therapeutic touch, Katina believes you will awaken your senses and nourish your body.
The spa offers tempting treatments such as organic botanical facials, wraps and scrubs that detoxify and re-energize, hot stone and Swedish massages, aromatherapy, a selection of peels, make-up application, hand and foot therapies, and much more.
