Designer Planet:How to Put On Lipstick Professionally

 Lipstick is the most popular and versatile form of makeup. It has the ability to add just a hint of beauty or high drama to your look, depending on what you are going for. However, how you apply your lipstick will determine how good it will look and how long it lasts. While everybody will have their own technique or tricks for applying lipstick, if you follow these steps below you are sure to have a great finish.

The easiest way to apply lipstick is to start from the center of your lips and brush the lipstick outwards. Apply a second coat for a longer-lasting look. Blot your lipstick by closing your lips around your index finger and pulling your finger out. Read below to discover more details about lip liners, choosing the right color for your complexion, and much more!

What You Need

    lip balm, lip liner, lipstick, facial tissue

Follow These Steps

Prepare Your Lips

Gently go over your lips with a soft toothbrush to remove any rough or loose skin.

When applying moisturizer to your face, massage a little into your lips too. Don't, however, use lip balm, since this would impair the indelibility of your lip makeup.

Wipe the lip balm off, if necessary. Before you apply any lipstick or lip liner, check and see if there is any lip balm on your lips. If there is still some residue, wipe it off using a tissue or cotton bud. Any lip balm that's leftover will make your lips too slippery and prevent the lip liner and lipstick from sticking.

Setting Powder or Foundation

Professional makeup artists will tell you that priming your lips is a critical step in how your lipstick will look and how long it wears. It gives the lipstick something to hold on to, fills in any lines that might be present, and will minimize the chance of the lipstick bleeding. There are a few ways that you can prime your lips; you can use a setting powder or a foundation or you can use a lip liner as a base. If you are using powder make sure you apply lightly and remove any excess. The same goes for foundation. You can also use a lip liner as a base.

Use a lip liner

Choose a color that matches your lips, not your lipstick. Before drawing a line with the lip pencil, begin by dotting it at various points along the outline of your lips. Then, drawing very lightly, use the liner to connect the dots.

Apply Lipstick

The lipstick should be applied starting at center and moving outwards. You should apply at least two coats of lipstick, blotting in between coats.

Blot

Blotting serves to keep lipstick off of your teeth and to make the lipstick last longer. To blot the inside of your lips you can put your finger in your mouth, close your lips around it, then gently pull out your finger. You can also fold a sheet of tissue in half, place it between your lips and gently press down on the tissue.

Fixing Outside the Line

If you have lipstick on any area outside of your lip line, you can use concealer to fix it. You can use a cotton swab or a lip brush to take care of these areas, by gently touching them, making sure to blend the concealer into your foundation.

Designer Planet: How To Put On Eyeliner

It’s important to know the proper way to apply eyeliner so it enhances your eyes and doesn’t look thick and messy.
Keep eyeliner on the top lid three times thicker than liner on the bottom. And for extra staying power, use waterproof gel liners on the bottom lashline.Choose your eyeliner based on the look you’re after. If you want a softer or smudgy line, use a dark powder shadow or pencil. For the most dramatic effect or when you want a more graphic line, go for gel or liquid liner.it’s important to know how to apply it correctly.


What You Need

    dark eye pencil, sharpener, matching eye shadow, shadow brush  
Smudge-Proof Gel Eyeliners

Follow These Steps

    Sharpen eye pencil
    To guarantee a clean application, sharpen your eye pencil every time you use it.

    Tip: Sharpening your eye pencil before each use will help eliminate any accumulated bacteria.

Apply liner as close to the base of the lashes as possible. Start thick at the outer corner of the eye and gradually make the line thinner towards the inner corner of the eye. Always line the entire length of the eye; never line just halfway—this will make eyes look smaller.



If you struggle with eyeliner transferring onto the lid, it's worth setting down the flick with a little translucent powder. "Let your liquid eyeliner dry, and then set it by patting a translucent powder on top" says James. If you tend to get oily eyelids, the powder will keep the formula from breaking down and prevent it from smudging or transferring.
Whilst a super-fat liner flick can look kinda cool, it can also be a little heavy on the eyes and make them appear smaller than they actually are.

"First, use a pointed cotton bud (rather than a round one) dipped in some micellar water to remove the excess eyeliner" says James. "When it comes to re-drawing, try to ensure that the inner corner is the finest point of the line, and that it graduates in thickness as you make your way outwards."

If your liner wing is too short, it can make your eyes look smaller than they actually are. "Line the eyes looking straight forward into a mirror, that way you can see exactly where the wing is going to end" says James. "If your flick is too short it'll get lost in the socket line, so be sure to extend it past the crease of your eye - this way it'll elongate the eyes and make them look bigger."

Finish with the bottom lash

Sweep any color that’s left on your brush onto the lower lid, just below the lashes. Start at the outer corner of the eye and work the shadow inward toward the middle of the eye, stopping a little less than halfway across the lower lash line.

Cinderella Diet

Once upon a time, a Japanese weight-loss trend called the 'Cinderella diet' went viral, and created a Twitter storm.

The controversial and unhealthy fad tells people how to calculate their 'Cinderella goal weight', so that they can look like the fictional character.

The fictional princess is being used as a controversial staple for 'weight goals'.

The Cinderella Diet (sometimes called the Cinderella weight challenge) is expanding from Japan to the United States. The Cinderella Diet is basically what it sounds like: Dieting to achieve the same proportions as the fictional Disney character. To find that “magical” weight, you have to measure your height in meters, square it, then multiply by 18. This will spit out your "ideal" weight in kilograms, so you would need to multiply this number by 2.2 to get the figure in pounds.



According to the BMI (Body Mass Index) — which is shitty at correlating health and weight, but still the most popular method used — the Cinderella weight is either fully underweight, or on the border.

For example, a 5'4" woman with a Cinderella weight of 108 pounds would have a BMI of 18, which is veering between underweight and "normal" weight.

Plus, health looks different on everyone. Saying that one weight is a "goal" weight is terrifying, incorrect, and beyond messed up.
Is the Cinderella diet dangerous?

Those who have a BMI of 18.5-25 are considered to be a healthy weight so the Cinderella diet puts people below this healthy range.

Many medical professionals believe that having a BMI that’s too high or low can increase your risk of health problems, including heart disease, stroke and type 2 diabetes.

Many believe these fad diets, such as the new Cinderella trend, are a big red warning for disordered eating symptoms.

Plugging a few heights into the formula gives us the following combinations:

● 165 centimeters = 49 kilograms

● 170 centimeters = 52 kilograms

● 175 centimeters = 55 kilograms

● 180 centimeters = 58 kilograms

If those sound like especially low body weights, it might be because they’re actually 18 percent lighter than the weights recommended for women of that height by the Japan Medical Association. In other words, even by Japan’s already slim baseline (relative to other societies), the Cinderella weight reflects a remarkably light build. The Cinderella weight also works out to a Body Mass Index of 18, whereas proponents of BMI as a health metric maintain that anything under 18.5 is too low.

What is the Cinderella diet?
In a time where there is an increased focus on healthy eating, healthy living, and body acceptance/positivity, there has come along a diet that seemingly puts those that try it at risk. This diet, dubbed The Cinderella Diet, is dieting to achieve the same proportions as the fictional Disney character.
