To give the skin a dewy finish, moisten a gauze pad or wash cloth in astringent and gently pat your already made up face. The astringent (witch hazel is perfect) will remove the matte look of makeup, while leaving the skin radiant.

Brush a dark powder eye shadow onto eyelids and smooth a dab of petroleum jelly (Vaseline) on top for a new eye gloss

Eye shadow can make close set eyes seem further apart. Try using a lighter color on the inner half and a darker shade from the middle of your lid to the outer corner, and don't forget to blend ;)

If you use a magnifying mirror (or lean in very closely to a regular one) while tweezing, step back and check your work periodically. It can be difficult to judge the overall picture while you are zeroing in on a small area - you may end up taking off way more than you planned.

Cosmetics have "gone bad" if they smell funny or if the formula has separated or dried out. Be especially careful with products used near the eyes as this is a sensitive area. If you suddenly react to a product that you have used faithfully, there may be bacteria forming, and therefore you have a reaction.

Use eyeliner pencil of slate gray, warm chocolate or navy shades with a light hand.

If you see any liquid or water coming out of the lipstick, keep it in a refrigerator.
