Good products, specifically formulated for African American skin tones are hard to come by. That is why it is important to utilize the cosmetic products you already have to their fullest potential. The following are some of the unintended uses for common beauty products, allowing you get more bang for your buck.
Eyeliner:
If you have faint eyebrows, you can use eyeliner to fill
them in and make them appear darker. The trick is to use the liner very
lightly, so that your eyebrows do not look darker than your hair. Similarly,
you can use eyeliner to cover gray hairs.
"Just like you used the eyeliner to darken your
eyebrows on the previous occasion, you can put it to similar use on your hair.
Many young women are graying early these days. If you have just a few
embarrassing strands of gray hair, cover it up with a dark liquid eyeliner. It
is a quick fix method to cover gray hair," according Bold Sky news source.
Blush or Bronzer:
If you find yourself in a situation where you're going to
have your picture taken in a small outfit or bikini, blush or bronzer can be
used to make your muscles look better. You can apply the bronzer or blush to
your stomach, legs, arms, or anywhere else where you'd like more definition.
Eye shadow:
Most people know that eye shadow can be used as eyeliner,
but it can also be used to contour and highlight cheeks depending on the shade.
Lightly colored shades such as peach, cream, or gold can be blended on the top
of the cheekbone as a high lighter. Darker brown shades can be used in the
hollow of cheeks to define cheekbones.
Foundation:
For women with brown skin it is difficult to find a good
foundation that matches skin tone perfectly. The right color foundation can
also be used to prime eyelids for eye shadow. Just dot or brush foundation onto
your eyelids and blend carefully. When properly blended, discoloration should
not be visible and the skin of your eyelids should appear even in tone.
