2,013 | How to Apply Makeup as a Man | 1. Highlighting and Contouring Your Face
1-1. Highlight areas of your face you wish to feature.
A liquid highlighter will make the important areas of your face look more radiant. Highlight your nose by brushing a thin line down its bridge. Fill in the area between the eyebrows with diagonal strokes. Use gentle strokes as you move and watch as your skin begins to look younger and smoother.
Try highlighting other areas. Color in the space between your lower eyelids and upper cheekbones. Place a little bit around your nostrils and above the arches of your eyebrows.
Your highlighter should be two shades lighter than your skin tone. Those with light skin, for instance, wouldn’t want to use brown or orange highlighters.
1-2. Blend in the highlighter with your fingers.
Tap or massage the highlighter into your skin. You don’t need to use a lot of force. Small areas, such as around your nose, can be handled by patting in the makeup with a single finger. For larger areas, such as the bridge of your nose, rub your finger lightly up and down the highlighted area.
When you’re finished, the highlighter won’t leave any obvious lines.
1-3. Contour your face with foundation.
Apply foundation over the areas you wish to sculpt. For your nose, brush on a line all the way down both its sides. The darker foundation should be next to the highlight on the bridge of your nose. Later on, your nose will appear thinner and more shapely.
Try contouring other areas. Start at eyebrow level on the side of your head and follow your head’s curve upwards to your hairline. Also, suck in your cheeks and paint from near your lower eyelid, along the hollow of your cheek, and down into your jawline.
Your foundation should also complement your skin tone, but be about two shades darker.
1-4. Blend the foundation with your fingers.
Gently go over the foundation lines. Pat them down and rub them into your skin. The goal is to soften the lines so the foundation blends in and becomes undetectable.
1-5. Cover dark areas with light-colored foundation.
A stippling brush is useful for applying and blending in this second coating of foundation. Dip the brush, a cotton ball, or makeup sponge in the foundation. Tap the brush against the areas you wish to cover. When you get to your nose, work from bottom to top and finish blending it with your fingers.
This lighter foundation should be two shades lighter than your skin tone.
1-6. Powder over highlighted areas.
The powder is used to reduce the unnatural skin glow some makeup, warm temperature, and bright lights can cause. Get a pressed powder a shade lighter than your skin tone. Use a brush to spread a light coating over the areas you highlighted earlier.
1-7. Color your face with bronzer.
Bronzer is useful if you think you look a little pale. Get a bronzer two shades darker than your skin tone. With your brush, follow the contour lines you made earlier. Use circular motions to blend the bronzer and highlighter.
After this, you may continue to make adjustments. Try blending in some blush on your cheekbones, nose, eyelids, and chin.
You can also use a lip liner to draw on freckles and other beauty spots you covered. This will ensure your skin maintains a natural, no makeup look.
2. Concealing Dark Circles and Blemishes
2-1. Test the concealer on your arm.
Find the veins on the underside of your wrist. Rub a little bit of the concealer into your skin. If it matches your skin, it’ll hide the veins. A concealer that matches your skin will look natural when used to hide marks on your face.
Men with oily skin should avoid cream and stick concealers. Those with dry skin should avoid liquid concealers.
Colored concealer, used in place of your regular concealer, can help cover up certain marks. Use the opposite color from what’s on your face. Orange pigment can help cover bluish dark circles and green pigment can help cover red blemishes.
2-2. Apply the concealer around the blemish.
Dab the concealer near the blemished area. You can do this directly with stick concealer or by using a finger or brush. Look into a mirror. Spread small amounts of the concealer all around the border of the darkened area. Don’t forget add some concealer on the top of raised blemishes.
Foundation works the same way as a concealer but doesn’t blend in well with facial hair. Avoid using foundation and concealer at the same time under facial hair..
2-3. Blend in the concealer with your fingers.
Take your fingertips and tap them against the concealer. Gently rub the cream into the area. Keep a delicate touch when working around painful blemishes. It won’t take long for the concealer to blend in with your skin.
3. Filling in Your Eyebrows
3-1. Brush your eyebrows into shape.
Start near the center of your face. Use gentle strokes to draw the hairs upwards. Continue doing this down to the thin part of the eyebrows. As you reach the end, brush to the side so your brows end in points.
A spoolie is a tiny brush used on eyebrows. It looks similar to a mascara brush, but make sure you don’t grab a makeup-filled brush by mistake.
3-2. Pluck your eyebrows with tweezers.
Any loose hairs can be removed. Grip the hairs and pull them out one by one. Work slowly so you don’t thin your eyebrows more than you want. Take some time to step back from the mirror and see how your eyebrows look. Groomed eyebrows should complement your facial structure.
Start at the thicker part and end at the thinner part. Keep the hairs at an even length on the top and bottom of the eyebrow.
Facial structure is important. For an oval face, for example, make your eyebrows square with space between them. For more square faces, a slight arch in your eyebrows will look better.
3-3. Fill in your eyebrows with a brow pencil.
Press the pencil gently against your brow. Find the place where the hairs begin to slant towards the side of your head. Make short strokes to the side to add color. For areas of vertical hair, start at the bottom of your brow and work upwards until your eyebrows look full.
3-4. Hold the hairs in place with brow gel.
Dip the brush in the gel. Again, lightly stroke the brush along your brow. Drag the brush along the area of hair that slants towards the side of your face. Return to the vertical hair and stroke upwards from the bottom of your brow.
4. Using Eyeliner
4-1. Draw a line under your lower eyelash.
Use a black eye pencil to trace along the bottom of your eye. Move slowly so you draw on an even, thin line. For a more pronounced look, you can also close your eye and color your eyelid.
You can use gel or liquid eyeliner if you wish. These tend to be a little harder for beginners to use and are more expensive, but last longer.
4-2. Smudge the eyeliner with your finger.
To channel David Bowie or Johnny Depp, make your eyeliner a little messy. Take one fingertip and rub it back and forth under your eye. If you colored your eyelid, smudge that too. Don’t worry about it looking neat.
4-3. Line the inside of your eye.
Open your eye wide. Take the pencil to your lower eyelid. Touch the pencil to the inside portion. Draw a line around it from one corner to the other.
Feel free to customize your look. You may make them more colorful by adding silver eyeshadow to the inner corners or covering the black areas with a shiny lip gloss.
You can also add mascara to make your eyes look darker. This is done by gently dragging a mascara brush over your eyelashes.
5. Establishing a Skincare Routine
5-1. Wash your face with an exfoliant.
Exfoliants remove dead skin cells, which helps makeup settle better on your face. Apply some exfoliant. Don’t rub it in. Instead, gently massage or pat it in. Follow up by patting your face dry with a towel. Use the exfoliant at least twice a week. You should always wash your face before applying makeup.
If you have sensitive skin, use exfoliant sparingly.
A non-exfoliant cleanser can always be used. It’s a good idea to use once (twice for oily skin) a day even when you aren’t wearing makeup.
5-2. Apply toner to hydrate your skin.
Toner replenishes your skin, so it’s useful anytime you apply a cleanser. Get a cotton ball or cosmetic pad. Dip it in a little bit of the toner, then use it to dab the toner across your face. It’ll keep your skin smooth and soft.
Avoid using toners with alcohol. These can dry out your face.
5-3. Protect your skin with a 15 SPF moisturizer.
Moisturizer, when applied in the morning, shields your skin from the sun. It can be applied at night as well to reduce the formation of wrinkles and other marks that break up makeup. Look for a product that has an SPF rating of 15 or higher. Rub it over your face and neck.
Try using moisturizer before applying makeup and after you wash it off at night.
5-4. Clean off your makeup at night.
Always remove makeup before you sleep. Wash your face at night to ensure you don’t leave stains on your pillow. A cleanser will help guarantee that your face is free of all makeup.
An oil-based cleanser is effective for removing makeup, but shouldn’t be used on oily skin. Instead, stick to gels and water-based cleansers.
5-5. Wear lip balm.
Lip balms also protect your skin and should be applied every morning. Look for ones with at least SPF 15, since these will protect your lips from sun damage. Avoid balms that have a shiny or glossy finish. These tend to look feminine.
Tips
Try mineral makeups specifically designed for men. It protects your skin and can hide skin conditions.
Don’t be afraid to go to a professional makeup consultant such as those behind the counters at department stores. They can help with tough parts such as getting makeup that matches your skin tone.
You don’t have to stick to male-labeled products. Products marketed towards women will work on you too.
Warnings
Applying makeup to open or bleeding spots can make those spots appear worse. Wait until they close.
Do not exfoliate immediately after shaving. Doing so will irritate your skin.

2,014 | An Absolute Beginners Guide to Applying Makeup Like a Pro | 1. Skin Prep & Applying Your Base
1-1. Start with clean skin.
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser, or use a cotton pad with micellar water (skin-cleansing makeup remover) to wipe away any impurities from your skin. Starting with a clean base is a critical first step, as it helps your makeup apply as smoothly as possible, resulting in a more natural, blended finish.
1-2. Apply a light moisturizer.
This will keep your skin from getting too oily during the day and help moisturize any dry patches, so your foundation applies seamlessly. If you have oily skin, don't skip on the moisturizer—instead, try a gel-based formula which absorbs quickly, hydrates, and won’t make you shinier.
Wait five minutes before putting on foundation, so the moisturizer has time to sink in.
A primer might be a good idea if you want your makeup to last throughout the day. A dab of foundation primer should be applied before foundation and after moisturizer—apply it like you would your moisturizer, and you’ll be good to go.
1-3. Dab on a tinted moisturizer or foundation to your skin.
Apply just a few dots of foundation or tinted moisturizer with your fingers to your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. Then, gently blend it out with your fingers or a foundation brush, working the spots outwards from the center in all directions. Be sure to choose a foundation shade that matches your skin tone—when in doubt, go for a slightly lighter shade over a darker one. This will help you avoid looking orange and give you a more natural look.
If you want more coverage, you can use a makeup sponge to apply, using the same blending technique.
1-4. Apply a dot of concealer
Use a concealer brush to dot on and blend a bit of concealer underneath and on the inner and outer corners of the eyes. Then, add a dot of concealer to any blemishes or spots peeking through, and blend it into the skin once more with your brush.
For a brighter under-eye look, opt for a concealer one shade lighter than your natural skin tone. Use a concealer as close as possible to your natural shade for concealing blemishes, so they don’t stand out more.
1-5. Set the concealer and foundation with a translucent powder.
Carefully dip your powder brush into your translucent face powder, tapping the brush on the side of the container to remove any excess product. Make sure you’ve blended enough to where there’s no visible residue left over on your face.
Translucent powder reduces oil-causing shine and locks in your makeup so that it lasts all day.
2. Applying Eyeshadow, Eyeliner, & Mascara
2-1. Apply an eyeshadow
For beginners, try a single neutral shade like taupe or bronze. Use a blending brush or your finger to make windshield wiper like swipes across the lid, working your way up to the crease.
Using a blending brush will allow you to be more precise over blending with your fingers if you’re starting out.
If you're using a brush, tap it lightly on the side of the eyeshadow case to remove any excess.
2-2. Apply eyeliner
Use a black or brown eyeliner pencil to carefully draw a thin line along the rim of your upper lash line. Take your time here, and don’t get discouraged—nearly every makeup wearer has difficulty applying eyeliner. The best part is you can always remove it with a q-tip and micellar water before giving it another go!
If you’re brand new to eyeliner, you may have an easier time applying gel eyeliner instead of a pencil, as gel eyeliners have a more slidable formula.
Look down into a mirror as you apply your liner. This angle will make it easier to draw a straight line.
Eyeliner is one of the areas that you can experiment with as you become more confident applying makeup. Factors like color and line type, like a cat-eye, can greatly enhance the appearance of your peepers!
2-3. Curl your lashes
Place a lash curler at the base of your upper eyelashes (along the lid) and press for five seconds. Be careful and take all the time you need to position your eyelash curler on your lid comfortably. You don’t want to pull any of those luscious lashes out!
If you have stubborn, straight lashes, you may have to repeat this step 1-2 more times to achieve a lifted lash look.
2-4. Swipe on
Apply your mascara to the upper and lower lashes with the wand's tip oriented towards the outer corner of your eye, wiggling your brush from root to tip. One coat is enough for a natural look, but you can layer up if you’re looking for some extra drama.
Don’t worry about getting any on your eyelid. Just let it dry, and clean it up later with a q-tip.
Keep in mind that the more coats of mascara you apply, the more likely it is to get clumpy or spidery.
3. Adding Cheek and Lip Color
3-1. Apply blush
Smile as you do this so you can see where the apples are. Dab on the blush and blend upwards towards your temples using your fingers or a blush brush.
Try a cream blush for a natural glow that's easy to blend in.
If you opt for powder blush, use a brush that's fluffy yet dense.
3-2. Swipe on a lipstick
Pucker your lips like you're about to plant a kiss and dab the lipstick or gloss to the center of your upper and lower lip. This first application can be straight from the tube—then, use your fingers to blend outwards, adding color with your fingertips as needed.
If your lips are chapped, prep them before putting on lip color. Gently buff them with a warm, damp washcloth and put on a light layer of lip balm. Let the balm absorb before moving on to lipstick or gloss.
For beginners, the lips are a great opportunity to add color and vary your makeup regime without fussing over application technique, etc. You can work with anything from neutral, barely-there gloss to creamy, fire-engine red.
3-3. Check if your look is properly blended.
Take a moment to check yourself in bright light, preferably daylight if possible, to ensure everything is blended and beautiful. If you’re satisfied with your look, congratulations—you did it! If not, you can always go back in with your powder brush and blend out anything that’s bothering you.
Tips
Finding the right shade of foundation is very important. A good rule of thumb is to brush a little on your jawline: if it blends in, it's right for you. If not, try a shade lighter or darker.
If you’re out of blush or not allowed to wear it, pinching your cheeks brings a natural rosiness to your face.
A palette is a good option if you want to apply more than one eyeshadow color but aren't sure what colors look good together.
Warnings
Don't overdo your makeup. Start by mastering a neutral look and slowly work your way up to more elaborate looks as you gain confidence in your application skills.
Some products may cause an allergic reaction to sensitive skin. If you know you have sensitive skin or want to be cautious, seek out makeup that is labeled "hypoallergenic." It is also advised to do patch tests on your lower jaw (near your ear) before applying it over your entire face in case of irritation.

2,015 | How to Apply Makeup for Dark Indian Skin | 1. Putting on Your Face
1-1. Keep your skin moisturized.
Darker skin tends to take on an "ashy" look when not properly moisturized. To keep from taking on an unhealthy-looking gray cast, always apply a moisturizer to your face after your daily shower.
If you have dry skin, you may want to use a liquid or cream foundation. For added hydration, you can mix a few drops of moisturizer into your foundation before you apply. Just be aware that this will lessen the coverage.
You can also use a tinted moisturizer or bb cream for a dewy finish and translucent coverage.
If you have oily skin, apply a mattifying primer on your oily spots, like your T-zone.
1-2. Match your foundation to your skin tone perfectly.
If you choose to make foundation a part of your beauty routine, it's important to find a product that's as close as possible to your natural skin tone.
When shopping for foundation, swatch it against your forehead or jawline. It's common for people with darker skin tones to be a little lighter at the face, so using your hand may not give you an accurate match.
In some cases, you'll need 2 foundation colors—one for the center of your face, and one for the outer edges. Color match the lighter foundation to the apples of your cheeks and match the darker foundation to your jawline or chest. You can also use these colors as your contour.
You can also go to a local beauty shop or the makeup counter at a department store and ask for help there. These businesses often employ skilled makeup artists who might be better able to find the perfect match. Many will also offer a free makeover with your potential new foundation to help you decide.
You should make sure the foundation you're thinking about buying is perfect in all lights, not just under the ones in the store. Try shopping without foundation or concealer on your face when trying out new foundations. Go outside and use a hand mirror to make sure the product blends in perfectly in the sun.
1-3. Conceal dark under eye circles.
Dark under eye circles are common in people of Indian descent. They are caused by an excess amount of melanin being deposited in the skin, which is a process controlled by genetic predisposition. If you have these dark under eye circles, you may want to take extra care to cover them, as an even skin tone will give you a more youthful, vibrant look. Pick a concealer that is the same shade as your natural skin tone or 1 shade lighter. It should have a slightly warmer undertone.
To apply, swipe the concealer under your eyes and blend at the edges.
Try applying orange color-correcting concealer under your skin-tone concealer. Orange concealer is applied the same way as conventional concealer and helps make under eye circles disappear. In addition, it is a great all-around color corrector for blemishes on darker skin.
You can also use concealer down your nose, on your Cupid's bow for a highlight, or anywhere you need more coverage.
1-4. Use bold blushes.
Many blushes that look too bright to be used in everyday makeup on lighter skin actually blend beautifully into darker skin. Bright oranges are especially great for adding a touch of color to your cheeks if you have warm undertones.
More subdued colors like rose and coral also complement darker skin nicely. These are great choices for daytime looks.
For nighttime makeup, consider using deep, rich colors like plum, wine, and bronze. The metallic in bronze blush is particularly great for creating a healthy glow.
Avoid neutral browns and beiges. These tend to make already brown skin look dull.
1-5. Finish your routine with a setting powder.
You can use a powder that matches your skin tone or one that is translucent and matte. Setting powder will both help your makeup last longer and reduce shine. This step is especially important if you have oily skin.
Be cautious when using illuminating powders or "illuminators." Make sure it has been especially formulated with darker skin in mind. These contain warm gold tones that will prevent the ashiness that other illuminators can give to dark skin.
1-6. Consider skin lightening treatments if you want lighter skin.
While tanning is the trend in Western cultures, skin "bleaching" treatments are incredibly popular in India, especially among women with darker skin. It's best to stick to natural methods of lightening your skin, as many pharmaceutical products can have dangerous side-effects.
Examples of natural skin lighteners that some people find effective are lemon juice, turmeric, and dairy products.
The best way to make your skin a little lighter is to avoid sun exposure and to apply sunscreen when you can't.
Bleaching your skin is by no means necessary. Dark skin is beautiful in its natural state. Don't lighten your skin to conform to some beauty standard. Only do so if it's your own personal preference.
2. Complementing Your Eyes
2-1. Highlight your brow with a dab of tan or cream eyeshadow.
Using an eyeshadow brush, apply just a bit of tan or cream eyeshadow under the arc of each of your eyebrows. This will create the illusion of a more dramatic brow and bigger eyes. This trick is especially effective on dark Indian skin.
2-2. Try a base of cream or pale gold eyeshadow during day.
While not usually thought of as a traditional look in India, shimmery cream or pale gold eyeshadow used as a base on the lids make a great everyday makeup choice for dark skin. When properly blended, this eyeshadow can look natural on darker skin while highlighting the eyes.
A touch of cream or pale gold eyeshadow by your tear ducts can also make your eyes look brighter without covering the entire lid.
Remember that darker complexions can pull off all colors. Just choose a dark shade of the color you want to try. Feel free to explore any eyeshadow that suits your tastes.
2-3. Choose vibrant hues of your favorite shades.
Although you can wear any color, the best colors for dark skin are highly pigmented. Use an eyeshadow brush to dab the color onto your lid. Start near the inner corner of your lid and work your way to the outer corner of your eyelid. Bring the color up just over the crease.
For example, violet, teal, fuchsia, and red all look lovely. You can also experiment with metallics.
If you have warm undertones, choose colors that are based on a red/orange palette. For example, you could choose a dark orange shadow or a warm red.
If you have cool undertones, choose colors that are based on a blue palette. For example, you could choose a bright indigo or a red mixed with blue hues.
2-4. Be careful with nudes and ashy colors.
Nudes can make you look washed out, and ashy colors can make your skin look dry and dirty. If you want to wear a nude shadow, choose one that is metallic or has a shimmer.
2-5. Use kajal to make your eyes pop.
Lining the lower eyelids with kajal (either from homemade powder or a commercial stick) is a ubiquitous look in India. This tradition began with a belief in kajal's medicinal properties, but many people around the world now use kajal for purely aesthetic reasons.
You can also use kajal to give yourself smoky eyes. Smoky eye makeup is another classic choice for Indian skin of all shades, but it is especially stunning when paired with dark skin.
Heavy black eyeliner looks much less stark and more flattering on dark skin. People with lighter skin have more difficulty pulling off this look, especially when lining their lower eyelids.
Liquid eyeliner is another staple of Indian fashion, both in India and among people of Indian descent living abroad, that looks great with dark skin.
3. Adding Lip Color
3-1. Apply some foundation first to make your lip color pop.
Simply spread on a layer of foundation the same way you use it on the rest of your skin. This trick helps when applying brighter lip colors to darker lips. Otherwise, these colors may not show up very well.
Foundation will also help your lip color to last longer.
You can also use concealer or lip primer instead of foundation.
3-2. Use burgundy lip colors as a go-to.
This deep red suits all complexions and is a staple part of many Indian women's makeup regime in India and abroad. It is especially flattering on darker skin, as it is typically not far off from one's natural lip color. Unlike people with paler complexions, if you have darker skin, you can pull off burgundy as an everyday lip color without looking overdone.
3-3. Try bright reds when you want to look glamorous.
While much more bold and adventurous than burgundy, bright reds also pair well with dark skin.
Orangey "fire" red shades are great for bold daytime makeup.
Use cooler and more neutral bold reds for a dramatic nighttime look.
3-4. Stay away from pale and glossy lip colors.
While they may look great as blush and eyeshadow, these colors don't work as well when used as lip colors. They can make your skin look dull and lifeless. Lip colors that are very glossy, frosty, and shimmery can cause the same issue.
When you do choose to go pale and glossy, favor pinks and corals with intense rather than muted hues.
Tips
While some western beauty experts insist that you should use bold colors on only the eyes or the lips (never at the same time), the popular Indian aesthetic is to go all out. Feel free to combine smoky eyes with an intense lip color.[27]

Research source
Just keep in mind if you're living in a Western country like the US, going heavy with both eye and lip makeup may look too dramatic. You can compromise by wearing more subtle makeup during the day and pulling out all the stops for evening events.
Never use a foundation lighter than your skin tone. This can make your skin look patchy and your makeup caked on.

Consider skin lightening treatments if you want lighter skin.\\nWhile tanning is the trend in Western cultures, skin \\\"bleaching\\\" treatments are incredibly popular in India, especially among women with darker skin. It's best to stick to natural methods of lightening your skin, as many pharmaceutical products can have dangerous side-effects.\\nExamples of natural skin lighteners that some people find effective are lemon juice, turmeric, and dairy products.\\nThe best way to make your skin a little lighter is to avoid sun exposure and to apply sunscreen when you can't.\\nBleaching your skin is by no means necessary. Dark skin is beautiful in its natural state. Don't lighten your skin to conform to some beauty standard. Only do so if it's your own personal preference.\\n2. Complementing Your Eyes\\n2-1. Highlight your brow with a dab of tan or cream eyeshadow.\\nUsing an eyeshadow brush, apply just a bit of tan or cream eyeshadow under the arc of each of your eyebrows. This will create the illusion of a more dramatic brow and bigger eyes. This trick is especially effective on dark Indian skin.\\n2-2. Try a base of cream or pale gold eyeshadow during day.\\nWhile not usually thought of as a traditional look in India, shimmery cream or pale gold eyeshadow used as a base on the lids make a great everyday makeup choice for dark skin. When properly blended, this eyeshadow can look natural on darker skin while highlighting the eyes.\\nA touch of cream or pale gold eyeshadow by your tear ducts can also make your eyes look brighter without covering the entire lid.\\nRemember that darker complexions can pull off all colors. Just choose a dark shade of the color you want to try. Feel free to explore any eyeshadow that suits your tastes.\\n2-3. Choose vibrant hues of your favorite shades.\\nAlthough you can wear any color, the best colors for dark skin are highly pigmented. Use an eyeshadow brush to dab the color onto your lid. Start near the inner corner of your lid and work your way to the outer corner of your eyelid. Bring the color up just over the crease.\\nFor example, violet, teal, fuchsia, and red all look lovely. You can also experiment with metallics.\\nIf you have warm undertones, choose colors that are based on a red/orange palette. For example, you could choose a dark orange shadow or a warm red.\\nIf you have cool undertones, choose colors that are based on a blue palette. For example, you could choose a bright indigo or a red mixed with blue hues.\\n2-4. Be careful with nudes and ashy colors.\\nNudes can make you look washed out, and ashy colors can make your skin look dry and dirty. If you want to wear a nude shadow, choose one that is metallic or has a shimmer.\\n2-5. Use kajal to make your eyes pop.\\nLining the lower eyelids with kajal (either from homemade powder or a commercial stick) is a ubiquitous look in India. This tradition began with a belief in kajal's medicinal properties, but many people around the world now use kajal for purely aesthetic reasons.\\nYou can also use kajal to give yourself smoky eyes. Smoky eye makeup is another classic choice for Indian skin of all shades, but it is especially stunning when paired with dark skin.\\nHeavy black eyeliner looks much less stark and more flattering on dark skin. People with lighter skin have more difficulty pulling off this look, especially when lining their lower eyelids.\\nLiquid eyeliner is another staple of Indian fashion, both in India and among people of Indian descent living abroad, that looks great with dark skin.\\n3. Adding Lip Color\\n3-1. Apply some foundation first to make your lip color pop.\\nSimply spread on a layer of foundation the same way you use it on the rest of your skin. This trick helps when applying brighter lip colors to darker lips. Otherwise, these colors may not show up very well.\\nFoundation will also help your lip color to last longer.\\nYou can also use concealer or lip primer instead of foundation.\\n3-2. Use burgundy lip colors as a go-to.\\nThis deep red suits all complexions and is a staple part of many Indian women's makeup regime in India and abroad. It is especially flattering on darker skin, as it is typically not far off from one's natural lip color. Unlike people with paler complexions, if you have darker skin, you can pull off burgundy as an everyday lip color without looking overdone.\\n3-3. Try bright reds when you want to look glamorous.\\nWhile much more bold and adventurous than burgundy, bright reds also pair well with dark skin.\\nOrangey \\\"fire\\\" red shades are great for bold daytime makeup.\\nUse cooler and more neutral bold reds for a dramatic nighttime look.\\n3-4. Stay away from pale and glossy lip colors.\\nWhile they may look great as blush and eyeshadow, these colors don't work as well when used as lip colors. They can make your skin look dull and lifeless. Lip colors that are very glossy, frosty, and shimmery can cause the same issue.\\nWhen you do choose to go pale and glossy, favor pinks and corals with intense rather than muted hues.\\nTips\\nWhile some western beauty experts insist that you should use bold colors on only the eyes or the lips (never at the same time), the popular Indian aesthetic is to go all out. Feel free to combine smoky eyes with an intense lip color.[27]\\nX\\nResearch source\\nJust keep in mind if you're living in a Western country like the US, going heavy with both eye and lip makeup may look too dramatic. You can compromise by wearing more subtle makeup during the day and pulling out all the stops for evening events.\\nNever use a foundation lighter than your skin tone. This can make your skin look patchy and your makeup caked on.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Applying makeup when you have darker skin can sometimes be tricky, since many makeup companies cater to lighter skin tones. However, dark skin has the advantage of pulling off a much greater range of colors than lighter shades. People with light-to-medium skin often have to shy away from more intense colors, but bold and bright colors look amazing on dark skin.

2,016 | How to Apply Makeup for Dark Skin (Girls) | 1. Finding Foundation
1-1. Use the right foundation for your skin type.
Different types of foundations work with different skin types, so decide whether your skin is more oily or dry before picking a foundation. If your face is always shiny, you breakout easily, and you tend to have larger pores, you probably have oily skin. If your face has rough or red patches, barely visible pores, or flaking skin, you probably have dry skin. If your face has parts that seem oily and other parts that seem dry, you have combination skin.
If you have oily skin with larger pores you should use a matte foundation to help dry up your skin’s natural oils.
Girls with dry skin should moisturize first, and then use a creamy foundation rather than a matte one. This will keep your skin moisturized and looking fresh.
If you have combination skin, you should pick a foundation that will give you your desired end effect.
1-2. Match foundation to your skin’s undertones.
Undertones are the base of your skin’s color, and they are divided in three different categories: cool, warm, or neutral. Your foundation color should be in the same category as your skin’s undertones. You can do some simple tests to figure out what undertones you have.
The white vs. cream test: get two articles of clothing, one white and one off-white. Hold them up to your face, look in the mirror, and decide which color complements your skin tone better. Make sure you don’t have any makeup on when you do the test. If the white looks better, you have warm undertones. If the off-white looks best, you have cool undertones, and if both look great, then you have neutral undertones.
The vein test: Look at the veins on your wrist and try to see if they look green, blue, or blue-green. Green veins means you have warm undertones, blue veins means you have cool undertones, and blue-green veins means you have neutral undertones.
The jewelry test: Get some gold jewelry and some silver jewelry to do this test. Try on both sets of jewelry and decide which jewelry flatters you the most. If wearing gold jewelry looks best, you have warm undertones, but if the silver jewelry looks best, you have cool undertones. If both types of jewelry flatter your complexion, you have neutral undertones.
1-3. Find the perfect color of foundation.
Sometimes dark skinned girls have a difficult time finding the right color foundation because many girls are naturally two toned and have a complex color. The best way to find the perfect foundation is to use several different colors together to match your skin.
If you need to conceal dark circles under your eyes, opt for a concealer with a deep orange tone. Apply it sparingly, then set it with a light layer of translucent powder.
You might find that your skin is lighter towards the center of your face and darker towards the outer edges. Using two different colors on the different parts of your face and then blending them together where they meet will help you get a very natural look with foundation.
2. Applying Foundation
2-1. Start with a clean and moisturized face.
You need to wash and dry your face before applying foundation. If your skin is dry, apply moisturizer prior to putting foundation on. If your skin is oily, try using a face priming gel to prep your face for the foundation.
2-2. Use a foundation brush to apply the foundation.
A foundation brush is a larger makeup brush with a rounded edge. Using a brush will apply your foundation consistently and smoothly on your face. Put the foundation only on the tip of the brush to avoid over saturating the brush.
Make sure to rinse the brush after every application to keep it clean and sanitary.
2-3. Shake the bottle of foundation.
Before every application you need to shake the foundation bottle well. The colors of liquid foundation can slightly separate and create an uneven tone if not mixed before applying.
2-4. Apply the foundation starting in the center of your face.
Start in the center of your face and blend the foundation out and up. Continue applying until your entire face is covered and evenly blended.
If you are using two different colors of foundation on your face, apply the lighter tone first, then apply the darker tone, and then use the brush to blend them together where they meet.
2-5. Buff your face.
Use a buffing brush or sponge to blend the foundation into your skin. Gently brush or sponge your face in a circular motion to blend the foundation and soften the look.
Make sure to buff around your jaw line and neck so you don't end up with a foundation line.
3. Picking Eye Shadows
3-1. Be bold with bright colors.
Girls with darker skin can wear very bright colors on their eyes and look great. The best bright colors for dark skin are bright jewel tones like blue,emerald, or purple. Bright colors really pop against dark skin and give you a dramatic look.
3-2. Blend complementing colors.
Using two complementing colors on your eye will create a fun, dramatic look. Try pairing gold and purple by applying the purple on your eyelid and layering the gold on top, closer to your eyebrow.
3-3. Try using neutral colors for a subtle look.
Wearing neutral eye shadows in shades of brown or nude can highlight your eyes and still look very natural. Blending several different neutral colors can create a unique look to wear everyday.
Stay away from whites or very light neutral colors. These colors can create a dry or ashy look on darker skin.
3-4. Use metallics to add some fun.
Metallic, or shimmering, eye shadows look amazing on dark skin because they are such a contrast to your rich, dark skin color. Eye shadows with shimmer really gleam on darker skin making it a perfect choice for a date night.
Eyeshadows in the gold and bronze family really complement the undertones of darker skin very well. However, only use shimmery metallic on your actual eyelid.
If you're using eyeshadow in the crease of your eye or directly under your eyebrows, it should be flat or matte.
Try using metallic jewel toned eye shadows to give you a dramatic look.
3-5. Finish the look with eyeliner and mascara.
Eye liner can make your eyes look bigger and create a dramatic look. Black and brown eye liners are great for a natural look, and colored eyeliners are fun to use to create a more dramatic look. Use mascara to lengthen and thicken your eye lashes to complete your flawless look. Find a good black mascara to use daily to enhance your lashes.
Try using a gel eyeliner if you want to line your eyes with a bright color. It may produce a bolder result than a pencil, while being easier to use and less drying than liquid liner.
If you need to conceal dark circles under your eyes, opt for a concealer with a deep orange tone.
4. Applying Blush
4-1. Use bronzer as blush.
A great trick for girls with dark skin is to use a bronzer as blush or applied over a neutral blush. Bronzer gives the cheeks a little extra color and highlights the cheek bones.
Apply the bronzer right under your cheekbones to create sculpt on your face.
4-2. Wear bright blush for a pop of color.
Bright colors can look great on dark skin if they complement the skin’s undertones. Bright pinks and corals are great colors to try out.
For a round face, apply the blush on your cheekbones and extend it up to your temples.
For a heart shaped face, apply the blush below the apples of your cheeks and pull it to your hairline.
For a long face, apply the blush below the apples, but don't extend it all the way to your hairline.
4-3. Combine blush and bronzer.
Using both blush and bronzer can give you a beautiful and elegant look. Apply a matte blush to your cheekbones and then sweep the bronzer over the blush to finish it off. You can also add more bronzer underneath your cheekbones to create a sculpting effect.
5. Choosing Lip Colors
5-1. Wear bright colors.
Bright colors look exceptionally well on girls with dark skin. Reds, oranges, and deep purples all are great choices for your lips.
To look the best, make sure the color matches your skin’s undertones. For yellow undertones, stick to warm colors like oranges or chocolate browns. For pink undertones, use cool colors like purples or colors with a blue tone in them.
5-2. Find a neutral close to your skin color.
If you want to wear neutral colors make sure you find a color that’s close to your natural skin tone. Light-colored nudes like white, tan, or pale browns may look less natural.
5-3. Finish with lip gloss for a luscious look.
Applying lip gloss on top of lipstick can be a great way to finish off you look. The lip gloss can help keep your lips moisturized throughout the day or night.
You can get a clear lip gloss or a colored gloss to enhance the lipstick.
Try using an oil like coconut oil as a natural lip gloss.
Tips
Use a black mascara to accent your eyelashes and a black or brown eyeliner to enhance your eyes.
Use a moisturizer before applying makeup if you have dry skin. This will help prep your face for foundation.
Practice doing your makeup at home with several different colors to find what looks best on you before wearing it out.
Warnings
Too much makeup can sometimes look overwhelming so make sure you use the least amount necessary to achieve the look you’re going for.
Follow the guidelines about throwing out old makeup. Over time, makeup, especially eye makeup, can harbor bacteria and give you infections when used, so it’s important to replace your makeup as needed.
Many people are allergic to some ingredients in makeup, so test any new makeup products by applying a small amount on your face and making sure you don’t have a reaction to it.
If you’re under 18, make sure you talk to your parents about wearing makeup and listen to their advice about how much and when it’s appropriate to wear it.

2,017 | How to Apply Makeup for Photos | 1. Starting with a Basic Foundation
1-1. Start with primer.
You want to start off with a basic primer. This lessens the appearance of makeup and fine lines. Apply a layer of primer to your face using your fingers. Make sure to especially target your nose, under your eyes, your forehead, and your cheekbones.
1-2. Use a matte foundation.
When applying foundation for photographs, you want to use a matte foundation. Matte makeup does not reflect light, making it a better choice for photography. To start, use your fingertips to dab some foundation on your cheeks, your chin, the bridge of your nose, and your forehead.
To avoid having an obvious foundation line, make sure that your foundation, concealer, and powder match the color of your skin as closely as possible. If you're not sure which product to choose, visit a makeup counter and ask a professional to match your skin tone for you.
Use a makeup brush to blend the makeup into your face. Use large, circular motions as you move the brush throughout your face.
Go over your face with the makeup brush a few times to make sure the foundation looks blended and smooth. Make sure to blend the foundation into your neck as well, so there is not a sharp contrast between your face and neck. Never stop blending foundation at your jawline.
1-3. Apply foundation more sparingly if you're photographing outside.
If you're doing an outdoor shoot, you do not need as much foundation. Natural light can make makeup appear more obvious and you may look overdone with too much foundation. Only apply foundation to areas where your skin is uneven and discolored if you'll be shooting outdoors.
1-4. Use concealer under your eyes, on your forehead, chin, and the bridge of your nose.
Once your basic foundation is laid down, you'll need to apply some concealer. This can help eliminate the appearance of dark circles under your eyes, and can also highlight certain areas to create a slimming affect on your face.
Use the brush that came with your concealer. Dab some concealer under your eyes. Draw a line of concealer running down the bridge of your nose. Then, add some to your chin and forehead. It may also be a good idea to add some concealer just above you lip.
Use a makeup sponge to slowly dab the concealer into your face. Go slowly and keep dabbing until the concealer is blended into the rest of your makeup.
Try applying a lighter, powder-based foundation below your eyes, on your chin, and on the center of your forehead. Then, use a fluff brush to blend it outwards.
1-5. Dab some highlighter over your concealer.
For photos, highlighter can help make your face light up a bit more. It can also help set your makeup and keep it from fading during a photo shoot. Using a large and fluffy makeup brush, dab a small amount of highlighter on the areas where you applied concealer.
Highlighter is best used for photographs taken in the evening or in low-light conditions.
1-6. Contour.
Even if you don't usually contour, doing so for a photo shoot can help your face look slimmer and more defined. Use a dark stick foundation to trace your face and blend the makeup from there.
Run the foundation from your temples to your hairline. Find your cheekbone by placing your finger on your face and finding the hollow part. Place a line of foundation here. You should also place two lines of foundation running along either side of the bridge of your nose. Trace your jawline with foundation, and then add a dab to your chin. Use a sponge to dab the makeup into your face.
1-7. Frame your face with a light layer of bronzer.
You do not need a lot of bronzer for photos, but it may be a good idea to add a light layer. This can outline your face a bit and help highlight your features. Take a small amount of bronzer and use a fluff brush to outline your face. Draw a circle around your face with the brush, applying bronzer along your jawline and forehead.
1-8. Use a brighter shade of blush than normal.
If you don't want to use bronzer, try applying blush instead. Makeup usually photographs about two shades lighter than it actually is. Therefore, it's a good idea to choose a slightly brighter shade of blush to make your cheeks look red and healthy. Pick a bright pink shade of blush and use a fluff brush to apply to your cheeks.
Start dabbing on blush on the apples of your checks. As you dab, move the brush backwards and up slightly.
After dabbing, use circular motions to blend your blush in a smooth, circular line.
Don't use blush and bronzer together. Choose just 1.
2. Applying Makeup to the Eyes and Eyebrows
2-1. Fill in your eyebrows.
Eyebrows may look lighter in photographs, so it's a good idea to fill in your eyebrows prior to a photo shoot. You'll need a brow powder that is 1-2 shades lighter than your brow color.
Take the brow brush and start at the bottom of the brow. Work upward, making short and direct strokes with the brush.
Fill in gaps in hair to make your eyebrows look fuller and more pronounced. Keep going until you reach the top edge of your eyebrow.
2-2. Add highlighter to your lids as a base.
You want your eyes to look bright and defined in photos. Adding highlighter to your eyelids can help prevent them from looking sunken in. Choose a shade of highlighting eye shadow that matches your natural skin tone. Use a large eyeshadow brush to apply it to both your eyelids. Use sideways, back and forth motions to cover the entirety of your lid, as well as your brow bone.
2-3. Avoid sparkly or shimmery eye shadows.
As with foundation, something sparkly or shimmery won't look great on camera. Stick to solid shades. Matte eye shadow works best here.
2-4. Apply a shade slightly darker than your skin tone to your crease.
You want your eyes to look defined. To create this effect, you'll want to apply a shade of eye shadow slightly darker than your skin to outline your eye. You will use an angled brush or a small eye shadow brush to apply this shade to your crease and the corner of your eye.
Use a corner brush to outline the outer corner of your eye. Then, run the corner brush along your crease.
Take a fluff brush and sweep it across your full eyelid in small circular motions. This will blend your corner and crease makeup with the rest of your eye.
2-5. Use an even darker shade for your lower lash line.
In order to make your eyes look outlined and defined, take a darker shade of eye shadow. Apply some of this shade to your corner brush. Draw a small line just underneath your lower lash line with this shade.
2-6. Apply the same highlighter you used on your cheeks to the inner corners of your eyes.
Once you've finished the main part of your eyes, you'll want to highlight your inner corners. This can prevent your eyes from looking sunken into your face. You'll want to use the same highlighter you applied to your cheeks earlier as it will match the rest of your face.
Use your fingers to dab some highlighter into the inner corners of your eyes.
Take a makeup brush and make swiping motions around the corners of your eyes. This should blend your makeup out.
2-7. Put on eye liner.
Eye liner is important in photographs. It outlines your eyes so they look crisp and noticeable. You can use a skinny brush, such as a corner brush, to draw a line just above your lash line. Keep the brush very close to your lashes as you draw a thin line all across your lash line.
Black eye liner is often recommended over brown shades. Black tends to show up better on camera.
2-8. Add mascara.
Once you're finished with your eyeliner, add mascara. To start, take an eye lash curler. Clamp it down on the base of your eyelashes to give them a slight arch. This will make them show up better in photos. Then, take a tube of mascara and apply it to your eyelashes. Use slow, somewhat wiggly strokes to elongate your lashes and separate them.
If any of your lashes clump, you can turn the brush on its side. Try to separate the lashes with the tip of your mascara brush.
If your mascara is clumpy, try adding 1-2 drops of saline solution inside the tube to loosen it up. However, if the mascara is more than about 3 months old, toss it out and purchase a new one.
3. Adding the Finishing Touches
3-1. Pick a lipstick shade you like.
When it comes to lipstick, brighter tends to show up better in pictures. However, it's best to pick a shade you like. You want to feel bold and comfortable in photos and a lipstick shade you love can help bolster feelings of confidence.
Line the lips first with a lip liner that is 1 shade darker than your lipstick to make the lipstick stay longer.
Apply the lipstick with a small lip brush to make the lipstick more precise and sharp.
As with other types of makeup, matte lipsticks work best here.
Place the end of the lipstick on your lips. Slowly trace the shape of your lips with the lipstick.
3-2. Make sure to add lip gloss.
You do not want to neglect lip gloss when putting on makeup for photos. Lip gloss can help your lips look full and plump in pictures. As with the lipstick, trace the shape of your lips with a complimentary gloss.
Alternately, if you don't want to use lip gloss, get a lipstick with a satin or glossy finish.
3-3. Finish off with a setting spray.
If you're taking a lot of pictures, your makeup may fade throughout the shoot. It's a good idea to finish off your makeup by adding a nice setting spray. Hold the spray about a foot away from your face, close your eyes, and mist your face in spray. This will keep your makeup intact.
Tips
Apply makeup in natural light. This will help you best see how the makeup looks on your face.
Pick colors you feel comfortable in for things like eyeshadow and lipstick. You want to feel confident when taking photos. If you're wearing a shade you dislike, this can cause you to look nervous or unhappy in pictures.

2,018 | How to Apply Makeup for a Beauty Pageant | 1. Preparing Your Skin for Heavy Makeup
1-1. Wash your face.
You want to clean your face of any dirt or oil. Think of this step as preparing your face so it is a blank canvas. You want to prepare your skin as best as you can so your makeup brings out your best features. To wash your face properly, follow these steps:
Use lukewarm water and a cream cleanser to hydrate your skin and wipe off lingering oils.
Avoid using hot water as it’ll dry out your skin. On the other hand, cold water will make your skin look red or splotchy.
Dab your face with a towel; do not rub. Rubbing may damage your skin.
If the skin around your eyes is particularly dry, use an eye cream to moisturize.
1-2. Exfoliate to remove dead skin cells.
Exfoliating your skin will remove the top, abrasive layer of your skin. Exfoliating too much may damage your skin, so be careful not to scrub too hard! To properly exfoliate your skin, do the following:
Concentrate on the rough and dry patches of your skin. Find the dull, flakey, or uneven patches of your skin.
Gently exfoliate upward, in smooth round motions. Do not be too heavy-handed as it may damage your skin.
1-3. Moisturize your skin.
The type of moisturizer you apply will depend on your skin and the look that you are trying to achieve. Moisturizer will help your makeup look clean and smooth as opposed to cracked and scaly.
If you have oily skin, look for a moisturizer that will combat the oil and not leave your face shiny.
If you have dry skin, look for an oil based moisturizer with natural ingredients.
If you use a tinted moisturizer, that can act as your primer.
1-4. Apply a primer to your skin.
A good primer is essential to building a blank canvas before applying makeup. It helps to hydrate and to smooth out the skin on your face. It will combat shininess or unevenness. This is similar to using a base coat when painting your nails; some may see this as an unnecessary step, but you will find it will elevate your makeup.
Primer is essential for pageant wear since you'll be under harsh light.
Use your fingertips to work the primer into your skin.
Primers come in gel, cream, or powder form and can offer varying levels of coverage or blurring/smoothing effects.
2. Applying Foundation to Your Face
2-1. Pick the right foundation for your skin type.
You will want to pick a foundation will work with not only your skin tone but also your skin type. Generally, foundations come in powder, stick, gel, or cream form. Follow these tips to pick the right formula for your skin:
– Choose a foundation specifically designed for hydration.
Liquid and stick foundations are creamier and may help moisturize your skin. Use a powder foundation to mask any stickiness from the foundation.
– Choose an oil-free foundation.
Using a powder foundation may help absorb your skin’s natural oils, giving your skin a matte, healthy look.
– Choose both a creamy and a powder foundation to help create an even and healthy skin tone.
Try out foundation looks before applying the makeup for a pageant.
Pick something that will look good during pictures, interviews, and under stage lights.
Since pageant makeup is traditionally heavy coverage, start with a strong foundation to apply color and more unique details.
2-2. Decide on the right foundation color.
You can find foundation in just about every shade imaginable; finding the perfect match should not be too difficult. Keep in mind that you are looking for a color that is more dramatic than everyday wear. You want something that will make you stand out on stage and hold up to stage lighting. Follow these tips to find what tone will work with your skin:
If you can, dip a cotton swab in your desired foundation and apply it on your jaw line.
If it doesn't stand out and looks invisible, you've found your match!
Determine if you should use cool, neutral, or warm tones.
Use a cool tone with a reddish or blueish base if the veins on your wrists stand out as blue, you burn easily, and you easily flush pink.
Pick a warm tone with a yellow or gold base if the veins on your wrist appear a greenish color and if you quickly bronze or tan in the sun.
Choose a neutral tone (with either warm or cool colors) if you have an equal number of green and blue veins on your wrists.
If gold looks good on you, you’re more than likely “warm.”
If silver looks good on you, you’re a “cool.” If both look great on you, you are a lucky “neutral.”
2-3. Apply the foundation with a brush or a sponge.
You want to apply your foundation evenly over your face. Makeup artists argue which tool to use when applying foundation. Some argue that brushes are the best with liquid foundations, while others suggest sponges for blending. Use your favorite application and apply these tips for best coverage:
Apply heavier layer of foundation on blemishes to make your skin look even and healthy.
Don't worry if it looks uneven on the first pass through. You can smooth and blend these spots out.
Blend the foundation around hairline and jawline so it looks natural and smooth.
2-4. Use foundation on your eyelids.
Just like primer will create a healthy canvas for your face, foundation will apply a canvas for your eyelids. This will help your eyeshadow and eye makeup stand out and stick to your skin.
Don't get the makeup in your eyes or it can be painful!
Use a small brush or your fingertips to apply it in delicate locations.
Buff out any creases caused by the foundation.
Once you've applied the first layer of foundation, go back through with a sponge and use a sweeping motion over your skin.
Pay particular attention to where the makeup cakes over blemishes, creases, lines, etc.
2-5. Pick a good concealer.
You can use your foundation to help combat dark circles or other blemishes on your face. However, for extra coverage for stubborn areas, you must pick a good concealer. You want to choose one that blends well with your foundation.
When picking and applying a concealer, choose one that'll blend smoothly.
If you don't blend your concealer, stage lighting will reveal "layers" in your makeup and accentuate your blemishes.
When buffing creases, look at your skin under different types of lights to catch any of these issues.
2-6. Create a matte look with a layer of pressed foundation powder.
By now, your face is probably feeling a bit sticky but for a pageant you will need a matte finish. Take a foundation powder, around the same shade as your first foundation, and dust it lightly over your face using a brush.
Powder will help your foundation stick to your face longer, and help with the “stickiness.”
It will also help your makeup look more natural and less like paint.
3. Highlighting Your Eyes
3-1. Pick three colors of eye shadow for your desired look.
You will use a light, a medium, and a dark color. The colors you pick are entirely up to you. You can pick colors based on your eye color or you can pick colors depending on what type of event you will be attending.
For example, if you are participating in a night event, you may want to consider darker, bolder colors with a sparkle or shimmer.
You may want to consider different looks for different parts of the pageant.
For an interview, swap a very dramatic look for the neutral colors of a more professional look.
3-2. Apply the three colors onto your eyelids.
Divide your eyelid in thirds. Use each color on a third of your eyelid, starting with the lightest shade.
Using the lightest shade, create a triangle on the inside corner of your eyelid, nearest to your nose.
Brush a line of the lightest powder along your brow bone. This is the first step to creating a bold eye look.
Apply the medium color to the middle of your eyelid. Make a medium-sized rectangle in the middle of your lid.
Use the darkest shadow and make a triangle on the outside of your eyelid. This should cover the last third of your eyelid, on the outside of your lid.
3-3. Blend your eye shadow.
Now you want the colors to pop but look like they belong together. Take a small brush and use the medium color to blend light to medium and then dark to medium. Blending is important! You want the colors to blend into one, not look like three separate parts. Using the medium color will make the color change look more natural. It bridges the two colors together.
Add a finishing touch using the darkest color.
Use a thin eye shadow brush to contour your eye shadow.
Swipe the brush from the outside corner of your eyelid crease to the inside corner of your eyelid.
3-4. Shape your eyebrows.
Pick an eyebrow pencil that is slightly darker than your natural eyebrow color. Determine what shape eyebrow you are going for. Do you want a thicker look or a more arched look? Again this depends on what look you want.
Using short strokes, form the desired eyebrow shape on your eyebrows.
Use your eyebrow bone as a guide for a more natural shape and always follow the direction of your hair.
Fill out your eyebrows well and make them bold so they'll stand out on stage.
Stick with a color that fits your hair and skin tone to prevent "bold" from being over-the-top.
3-5. Apply eyeliner.
If you are comfortable using eyeliner and have applied it before, you may go for a liquid or gel eyeliner. If you are new to using eyeliner, you may use a pencil eyeliner as it is easy to fix if you make a mistake.
If the liquid or gel eyeliner comes in a small pot, apply it using an eyeliner brush.
If you're using a pencil eyeliner, hold it like you would a normal pencil in your dominant hand.
Apply a thin line on the top inside of your eyelid, forming a thicker line as you move outward.
For your bottom lid, make a line on the inside of your eyelid (also called the water line).
Be careful not to poke yourself in the eye!
3-6. Pick a mascara that will add volume to your eyes.
You can even layer two different mascaras to get your desired effect. For example, some mascaras are great for volume while others are great for color. Use both for a fuller, darker look.
Slide the brush out of the tube slowly, making sure there is an even amount of mascara on the sides of the brush.
Apply the mascara to your eyelashes, starting with your top eyelashes.
Move the brush from the bottom of your lashes to the ends of your lashes in one fluid motion.
You can apply several layers of mascara, but avoid applying so much that you create clumps.
You can also carefully apply 1-2 coats of mascara to your lower lashes (though you’ll likely have fewer lower lashes).
4. Creating Beautiful Lips
4-1. Pick your favorite lip liner, lipstick, and lip gloss.
Your choice of lipstick with depend on your skin tone and your look. Always try to find a bold color to help you stand out from the crowd.
Identify your skin undertone. Is your undertone more yellow or pink?
Yellow is warmer, and pink is cooler. Pick a lip color that goes with your undertone.
For instance, if you have a cooler skin tone, choose reds that have some blue in them. If you have a warmer skin tone, choose orange-based reds.
Ask a beauty consultant at your local makeup store for more advice if you have trouble determining your skin tone.
4-2. Put lip liner on your lips.
Using short strokes with the liner pencil, fill in your lips. This will help the lipstick pop and stick to your lips. Think of the lip liner as adding foundation to your lips, preparing them for the lip color.
Make your top lip look a bit bigger that your bottom.
Use your lip liner and gently shape your desired lip shape.
Make this look bold, but natural. Don't exaggerate this too much or it will look unnatural.
You can also play around with the liner to make the shape that you want.
4-3. Apply the lipstick.
Follow your lip liner and apply the lipstick to your lips. Try to do this in a fluid motion, running the lipstick over your top lip and your bottom lip.
Once you apply the lipstick, fold a piece of clean tissue in half and close your lips over it to seal in the color.
Open your mouth and smile to confirm you don't have lipstick on your teeth.
4-4. Dab lip gloss in the middle of your top lip and bottom lip.
Avoid putting gloss all over your lips; instead, you want to contour your lips with the gloss.
This tip is very similar to how you can contour your nose to look different. Applying lip gloss on the center of your lips will make them look fuller.
Lip gloss will also help your lips photograph well and make them noticeable from the stage.
5. Applying the Finishing Touches
5-1. Use a large, puffy brush to apply highlighting powder.
Highlighting powder can be a good final touch for your face and help to bring attention to your stand out features. You should select a highlighting powder based on your skin tone.
, use a pearl-colored pressed powder.
, select a champagne-toned highlighter or a pale pink highlighter.
, go for a highlighter in a neutral peach shade and avoid highlighters with any yellow in them.
, go for a highlighter with a gold shimmer.
Start by lightly running the highlighting powder underneath the arch of your eyebrows and in the inner corner of your eyelids.
Apply highlighter on the bridge of your nose just between your eyes. Make sure you brush the powder away from your nose and eyes.
Run the brush on the high points of your cheeks to help your cheekbones pop and add dimension to your face.
Finally, put a small amount of highlighter above your lips, at your Cupid's bow.
Always brush out, moving away from your nose and mouth to avoid getting powder on your lips.
5-2. Apply bronzer to your cheeks.
This will help to thin out your cheeks. Apply a small amount of bronzer; you do not want to make it look unnatural or out of place.
Next you can finish your look by applying blush right above your bronzer to emphasize the apples of your cheeks.
The darker color blush you use, the bolder the look will be.
If you want a thinner nose, use a brush and brush the bronzer down the sides of your nose. This will highlight your nose and manipulate the way it looks.
5-3. Review your work!
Go over your face and add more color if you need to. Or, you can go back and buff out any trouble spots that you notice.
Because you have applied this look in layers, you can easily touch up any spots that you are unhappy with by repeating the steps of this process.
Remember to add a translucent setting powder to prevent shine on stage.
Finish the process with a setting spray to keep your make up from sliding off under the hot lights of the pageant.
Tips
Not all colors or makeup work for every type of person or skin tone. Experiment with colors to see what works best for you.
You want to go with a bolder look for competitions than you would for everyday wear.

2,019 | How to Apply Makeup for a Fancy Party | 1. Face Prep
1-1. Cleanse your face.
Before you apply makeup to your face, you'll want to wash it and remove any excess oils or dirt. Use a gentle cleanser and wash your face with warm water and then pat it dry with a towel. If you are going to a party at night and have makeup on from the day, remove the makeup with makeup remover cloths or solutions before you wash your face.
1-2. Moisturize your face.
Moisturizer is important to apply before makeup because it restores the natural oils to your face and keeps your face from drying out or becoming flaky. Use a moisturizer suited for your skin type and one that is oil-free and noncomedogenic, so that it won't clog pores. Apply a quarter size drop of moisturizer to your face and blend it in.
1-3. Apply primer.
Primer goes on before the rest of your makeup and helps your makeup last longer. If you are going to be up late, or at a party where there will be a lot of dancing, primer will prevent you from having to continually reapply your makeup. It also creates a more matte look on your face, which will remove any shininess. Apply a few small dots of primer across your forehead, nose, and cheeks and then blend it in with your fingers or a sponge.
A little goes a long way with primer -- don't apply too much as it's only supposed to be a light application. Try avoid the eye area as you will later apply an eyelid primer. Make sure you allow your moisturizer to dry before you apply your primer.
After you have applied your primer, let it sit for a few minutes before you apply your foundation.
1-4. Use a foundation.
After your primer has dried, apply foundation to your skin, blending it in with a foam sponge, your fingers, or a foundation brush. Use a foundation that is suited for your skin type and try to choose a foundation that matches your color. If you aren't sure, first test it on your jawline and then look at your skin in the light, making sure the color blends in.
To adequately blend your foundation, start by applying foundation to the center points of your face (your forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin). Then, blend the foundation outwards, going from the center of your face, to the outside of your face.
Make sure to compare the shade of your neck and jaw before you move onto the next step. You want the colors to blend together -- you don't want your face to be a different shade than your neck, so blend it in well.
1-5. Conceal blemishes or dark circles.
Using a concealer that also matches your skin color, dab your blemish areas with a small dot of concealer. Then, blend it in softly with your middle finger. As you blend, you don't want to press too hard or blend it in too much as this can create redness or even remove the concealer. This is why using your middle finger is better, because with your index finger you may apply more pressure.
You can also highlight your eyes with concealer by applying it underneath your lower eyelid and blending it in just a little. You want these highlights to look natural, so blend your concealer in until you have a lighter area underneath your eyes.
1-6. Set your makeup with powder.
Powder also helps your makeup stay, and keeps your face from looking extra oily. Use a powder brush and dip it into loose powder. Then gently swipe the powder across your face, blending it in by making small swirls with the brush. Finish using downward strokes. This will keep the tiny hairs on your face from being unnaturally squished in a weird direction. Make sure you choose a powder that also matches your skin color.
1-7. Apply bronzer to contour.
To add a bit of color and contouring to your face, apply a bronzer one to two shades darker than your skin color. Use a sweeping motion with a brush across your face and create a three, starting at your forehead, moving to your cheeks, and then ending at your chin. The bronzer should be along your hairline/upper forehead, below your cheekbone, and just below your jawline. Blend it in with your brush.
If you have pale skin, you may want to skip the bronzer. However, don't be afraid to use a little bit of bronzer. You can follow the same steps, but use less bronzer as you don't want to darken up your face unnaturally. Bronzer will just help add some color and depth to your face.
Bronzer is often used for contouring, but it's usually used to simply warm a complexion. In order to fully explore contour, a shadow color is needed, such as a light brown or grey-brown color depending on your skin tone. The point of contouring is to play with the light and shadows of your face, so when darkening under the cheekbones to provide shadow, you'll want a color that will look just a few shades darker, like a real shadow on your face.
The fluffier the brush and the more blending you do, the better it looks so that you can achieve a more even tone.
2. Eye Makeup
2-1. Apply an eyelid primer.
Dip your finger into the primer and apply a thin layer on your upper eyelid, below the crease. This primer will help your eyeshadow last longer, just like the other primer you applied. Allow the primer to absorb into your skin and sit for a minute or so before you apply the rest of your makeup.
2-2. Choose your colors.
There are so many different color combinations you can do for fancy makeup. If you are going to a more formal event you may want to stick to browns and greys. If you are going to a fun event you may choose to use a shimmery eyeshadow. If you aren't sure what looks best on you, try out some different shades before your party. It is really your personal preference, but here are some guidelines for eyeshadow colors:
For brown eyes: Because brown is a neutral color, you have a lot of options for your eyeshadow. You can go with coppers, purples, and blues. Really, brown eyes can get away with most colors, but usually darker shades look better.
For hazel eyes: Pastels and metallics look best for this eye color because they help make light brown eyes sparkle. Heavy shadows can hide the subtle green and gold in your eyes.
For blue eyes: Soft tones like coral and champagne often look best on blue eyes. Very dark, smoky looks can distract from your eye color, so sticking to the lighter shades will draw attention to your eyes without distracting from your eye color.
For green eyes: Because your eyes have so much color, you don't have to use much color for your eyeshadow to make your eyes pop. Choose eyeshadows in shimmery browns or even a muted purple.
Using a color wheel to find your eye color's opposite is a great way to make sure your eyes stand out. For example, orange is blue's opposite, so eye shadows with orange tones will help blue eyes pop, etc.
2-3. Apply eyeshadow.
Start by applying a light, neutral shade of eyeshadow to your upper eyelid, below the crease, and then blend it into the crease with an eyebrow brush. Then, apply a light, shimmery eyeshadow like cream or white to the inner corners of your eyes for an extra highlight. Then, blend a darker shade into the crease of your eye -- you want the color to be one or two shades darker than your eyelid color. Finally, add a dark color right above your crease and blend it into your crease with an eyeshadow brush.
For blue eyes, you might consider using a light champagne color for your eyelid, a peach, coral color for your crease, and a light brown, gold, or darker peach above your crease.
For brown eyes, you have a lot of flexibility. Basically, choose a light color for your eyelids and go darker as you move your way up. Try to stay in the same shades, though (don't use a purple on your crease and a brown above your crease).
For hazel eyes, you can do a light smoky eye, by using a light, shimmery grey above the crease of your eye, or you can do a purple eye. Use a light color on your eyelid, move to a pale or pastel purple on your crease, and then apply a rich purple above your crease (don't go as dark as plum though).
For green eyes, go for a shimmery brown look. Choose a light champagne for your eyelid, fill in your crease with a golden or beige eyeshadow, and then use a shimmery bronze above your crease.
Make sure that your eyeshadow doesn't meet your eyebrow. You want your eyeshadow to end a little bit above the crease of your eye and not any higher.
To achieve a smokey eye look for events especially fancy, start with the lightest tone of eyeshadow in your inner eye (usually shiny whites, peaches, or very light browns), then move across the eye (towards the ears) with every shade getting progressively darker. For example, on a blue eye, you could start with a light white on the inner corners of your eyes, then cover most of your lid with a peach color shadow, and finally adding a darker peach/gold/bronze (or whichever darker color matches the shadows you've used) on the outer corners of your eyes, blending into the outer portion of your crease and around the edges of the outer eye.
2-4. Highlight your eyes with an eyeliner.
You can use a liquid or pencil eyeliner on your eyelids. Draw a thin line of eyeliner on your top eyelid above your lash line, starting from the corner of your eye and moving to the end of your eyelid. For a more dramatic line, you can create a wing or cat eye with your eyeliner, drawing the line out past your eyelid half an inch or so.
When doing top eyeliner, it can be helpful to place a piece of tape next to your eye, so that your eyeliner has a nice boundary. Take a piece of scotch tape one inch long, and line it up with the outer edge of your lower eyelid. Place it at an angle so that extends away from your upper eyelid towards the end of your eyebrow.
The color you choose for your eyeliner is up to you. Black is good for a fancy party, but if you have naturally light lashes, a light or dark brown may be better suited for you. You can also choose a fun color like a shimmery bronze or blue if you want to add some glitter to your eyes.
You can use eyeliner on your lower lash line as well, but this often makes people's eyes look smaller. Using eyeliner above your lash line and then accentuating your lower lash with eyeshadow will make your eyes look bigger.
A thin slanted eyeshadow/eyebrow brush can be used to help smooth out any eyeliner bumps and perfect that fierce wing. Simply place a small bit of eyeliner onto the tip of the brush and carefully touch up any issues.
2-5. Apply eyeshadow under your eye.
This is in place of your under eye eyeliner, or in addition to it. Use a medium shadow (not a white but not a dark grey.. something like a beige or brown) and apply a thin line of eyeshadow from the outer corner of your eye to the middle of your eye with a thin eyeshadow brush. Then, smudge and blend it in with your finger or with an eyeshadow brush.
It is really your personal preference what you want to do under your eyes. Start by applying your upper eye makeup, and if you feel like you need something more, add under eye eyeliner or eyeshadow. If you like the way you look without something under your eye, then leave it at that. You could also choose a fun color for under your eye like a light blue or purple.
2-6. Apply mascara.
For the final touches to your eye, choose a mascara suited for your hair color. Dip your mascara brush in your bottle (making sure you don't pump it as this can dry out the mascara) and start at the base of your top lashes, underneath them. Then, wiggle your mascara brush through your lashes. After you have applied one coat, apply one or two more coats until you have your desired color.
Repeat this step on your lower lashes, but apply the mascara to the top of the lashes instead of underneath them.
If you have dark hair, use a black mascara. If you have light hair, try a dark brown or brown mascara. It will still look mostly black on your eyelashes, but won't make your lashes look spidery.
Before you apply your mascara you can use an eyelash curler to add definition to your eyelashes.
3. Final Touches
3-1. Apply blush.
If you plan on taking a lot of pictures at your party, blush is important because it can help highlight your cheekbones and prevent your face from looking pale or washed out. Smile to locate the apple of your cheeks and then swipe on blush with a blush brush, blending it in until you get you desired color. Choose a blush color suited for your skin tone:
Fair/ivory skin: Choose a baby pink or pale pink for your blush color. This is the most natural look for very fair skin as other shades can look orangey. For fair skin that is a little bit darker you can use a peach blush in a satin or sheer texture. If you want to go a little more dramatic for a night out, you can use a plum colored blush in a translucent shade. Choose a plum colored blush that is a shade or two darker than your lip color.
Medium skin: Wear a blush that is an apricot shade, as this will bring out the natural warm colors in your skin. You can also wear a pinky-berry color; because a pale pink looks good on fair skin, a medium pink will look good on medium skin. For a more dramatic look, choose a muted mauve (pale purple) color that has a hint of plum.
Olive skin: Look for warm tones like an orangey-peach, that will hide the green undertones in the skin. Wear a rose or bronze colored blush for a more dramatic look that will add warmth to your skin and help boost the olive color. If you have fair olive skin you can use these same colors, just don't apply as much blush.
Dark skin: Go for bold, highly pigmented shades like raisin, brick, and cranberry. For a dramatic look, choose a bright tangerine that will be pretty and subtle on dark skin.
3-2. Moisturize your lips.
This step is beneficial when you know you are going to be wearing your lipstick a long time. Moisturizing your lips helps prep them for your lipstick by removing any dryness. Apply a sugar or exfoliating scrub to your lips. Then, rinse it off and apply a layer of lip balm. Allow the lip balm to sit on your lips for a few minutes, then blot it off.
3-3. Use a lip liner to line your lips.
Choose a lip pencil or liner that closely resembles your natural lip color. This will help prevent your lipstick from bleeding past your lips. To keep the color from fading from your lips you can also color in your lips with your lip liner.
3-4. Apply a bold lipstick color.
Because you are going to a fancy party, you have the opportunity to wear a fun or bold lipstick color. Start from the center of your top lip and swipe a thin layer of lipstick outwards, trying to stay inside your lips. Then, apply lipstick to your bottom lip and rub lips together to evenly coat. You can choose a bright red, dark red, pink, or if you want something simple choose a neutral color. Once again, it is your personal preference. Here are some ideas for lip colors:
For fair skin: Berry colors or blue-based shades of reds and purples; light pinks like candy pinks and sugars; nudes like pearl, honey, and peachy coral; honey browns; deep plums for a dramatic look
Medium/tan skin: Bright, orange based reds; bright or berry colored pinks; shimmery peaches and corals; gold based browns; and deep berries.
Olive skin: Bricks or rusty reds; light, glossy pinks; brown based shades of peach and tan; berry browns with hints of pink; medium shades of plum or berry
Dark skin: Ruby, candy apple, and garnet reds; punch and fuchsia pinks; coppery peach nudes; deep, rich browns; mulberry and deep plum
3-5. Blot your lips with a tissue.
Once you have applied your lipstick, you may want to remove some of the color or any excess lipstick. Take a tissue and fold it in half, and then place it between your lips. Press your lips down firmly over the tissue a few times until no more lipstick comes off of your lips when applied to the tissue. Then, touch up the edge or outside of your lips with tissue and concealer.
Another way to blot lipstick is to carefully hold a tissue over your lips, and dab at your lips with a big fluffy brush (like a blush brush). This takes the excess lip color evenly off of your lips, without getting any on your face or the brush (as long as you only dab your lips and don't dab too hard, that is!).
3-6. Set makeup with makeup setting spray.
After you have applied all your makeup, you can spritz a setting spray to your face so that your makeup will last longer. Hold the spray a foot or so away from your face and spray a light layer across your face. Then, allow it to dry.
This spray is suitable for all skin types, but if you have sensitive or dry skin try to avoid sprays with alcohol as they can dry out your skin.
3-7. Finished!
Tips
Always start with a light layer of makeup and add on from there. It's much easier to add makeup than take it off.
The type of makeup you wear will depend on the party. If you are going to a formal party, then a more natural looking makeup may look better. If you are going to a party like prom or a dance then darker, bolder colors may be better.
If your skin is naturally oily, try to use more oil-free skin products.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Face Prep\\n1-1. Cleanse your face.\\nBefore you apply makeup to your face, you'll want to wash it and remove any excess oils or dirt. Use a gentle cleanser and wash your face with warm water and then pat it dry with a towel. If you are going to a party at night and have makeup on from the day, remove the makeup with makeup remover cloths or solutions before you wash your face.\\n1-2. Moisturize your face.\\nMoisturizer is important to apply before makeup because it restores the natural oils to your face and keeps your face from drying out or becoming flaky. Use a moisturizer suited for your skin type and one that is oil-free and noncomedogenic, so that it won't clog pores. Apply a quarter size drop of moisturizer to your face and blend it in.\\n1-3. Apply primer.\\nPrimer goes on before the rest of your makeup and helps your makeup last longer. If you are going to be up late, or at a party where there will be a lot of dancing, primer will prevent you from having to continually reapply your makeup. It also creates a more matte look on your face, which will remove any shininess. Apply a few small dots of primer across your forehead, nose, and cheeks and then blend it in with your fingers or a sponge.\\nA little goes a long way with primer -- don't apply too much as it's only supposed to be a light application. Try avoid the eye area as you will later apply an eyelid primer. Make sure you allow your moisturizer to dry before you apply your primer.\\nAfter you have applied your primer, let it sit for a few minutes before you apply your foundation.\\n1-4. Use a foundation.\\nAfter your primer has dried, apply foundation to your skin, blending it in with a foam sponge, your fingers, or a foundation brush. Use a foundation that is suited for your skin type and try to choose a foundation that matches your color. If you aren't sure, first test it on your jawline and then look at your skin in the light, making sure the color blends in.\\nTo adequately blend your foundation, start by applying foundation to the center points of your face (your forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin). Then, blend the foundation outwards, going from the center of your face, to the outside of your face.\\nMake sure to compare the shade of your neck and jaw before you move onto the next step. You want the colors to blend together -- you don't want your face to be a different shade than your neck, so blend it in well.\\n1-5. Conceal blemishes or dark circles.\\nUsing a concealer that also matches your skin color, dab your blemish areas with a small dot of concealer. Then, blend it in softly with your middle finger. As you blend, you don't want to press too hard or blend it in too much as this can create redness or even remove the concealer. This is why using your middle finger is better, because with your index finger you may apply more pressure.\\nYou can also highlight your eyes with concealer by applying it underneath your lower eyelid and blending it in just a little. You want these highlights to look natural, so blend your concealer in until you have a lighter area underneath your eyes.\\n1-6. Set your makeup with powder.\\nPowder also helps your makeup stay, and keeps your face from looking extra oily. Use a powder brush and dip it into loose powder. Then gently swipe the powder across your face, blending it in by making small swirls with the brush. Finish using downward strokes. This will keep the tiny hairs on your face from being unnaturally squished in a weird direction. Make sure you choose a powder that also matches your skin color.\\n1-7. Apply bronzer to contour.\\nTo add a bit of color and contouring to your face, apply a bronzer one to two shades darker than your skin color. Use a sweeping motion with a brush across your face and create a three, starting at your forehead, moving to your cheeks, and then ending at your chin. The bronzer should be along your hairline/upper forehead, below your cheekbone, and just below your jawline. Blend it in with your brush.\\nIf you have pale skin, you may want to skip the bronzer. However, don't be afraid to use a little bit of bronzer. You can follow the same steps, but use less bronzer as you don't want to darken up your face unnaturally. Bronzer will just help add some color and depth to your face.\\nBronzer is often used for contouring, but it's usually used to simply warm a complexion. In order to fully explore contour, a shadow color is needed, such as a light brown or grey-brown color depending on your skin tone. The point of contouring is to play with the light and shadows of your face, so when darkening under the cheekbones to provide shadow, you'll want a color that will look just a few shades darker, like a real shadow on your face.\\nThe fluffier the brush and the more blending you do, the better it looks so that you can achieve a more even tone.\\n2. Eye Makeup\\n2-1. Apply an eyelid primer.\\nDip your finger into the primer and apply a thin layer on your upper eyelid, below the crease. This primer will help your eyeshadow last longer, just like the other primer you applied. Allow the primer to absorb into your skin and sit for a minute or so before you apply the rest of your makeup.\\n2-2. Choose your colors.\\nThere are so many different color combinations you can do for fancy makeup. If you are going to a more formal event you may want to stick to browns and greys. If you are going to a fun event you may choose to use a shimmery eyeshadow. If you aren't sure what looks best on you, try out some different shades before your party. It is really your personal preference, but here are some guidelines for eyeshadow colors:\\nFor brown eyes: Because brown is a neutral color, you have a lot of options for your eyeshadow. You can go with coppers, purples, and blues. Really, brown eyes can get away with most colors, but usually darker shades look better.\\nFor hazel eyes: Pastels and metallics look best for this eye color because they help make light brown eyes sparkle. Heavy shadows can hide the subtle green and gold in your eyes.\\nFor blue eyes: Soft tones like coral and champagne often look best on blue eyes. Very dark, smoky looks can distract from your eye color, so sticking to the lighter shades will draw attention to your eyes without distracting from your eye color.\\nFor green eyes: Because your eyes have so much color, you don't have to use much color for your eyeshadow to make your eyes pop. Choose eyeshadows in shimmery browns or even a muted purple.\\nUsing a color wheel to find your eye color's opposite is a great way to make sure your eyes stand out. For example, orange is blue's opposite, so eye shadows with orange tones will help blue eyes pop, etc.\\n2-3. Apply eyeshadow.\\nStart by applying a light, neutral shade of eyeshadow to your upper eyelid, below the crease, and then blend it into the crease with an eyebrow brush. Then, apply a light, shimmery eyeshadow like cream or white to the inner corners of your eyes for an extra highlight. Then, blend a darker shade into the crease of your eye -- you want the color to be one or two shades darker than your eyelid color. Finally, add a dark color right above your crease and blend it into your crease with an eyeshadow brush.\\nFor blue eyes, you might consider using a light champagne color for your eyelid, a peach, coral color for your crease, and a light brown, gold, or darker peach above your crease.\\nFor brown eyes, you have a lot of flexibility. Basically, choose a light color for your eyelids and go darker as you move your way up. Try to stay in the same shades, though (don't use a purple on your crease and a brown above your crease).\\nFor hazel eyes, you can do a light smoky eye, by using a light, shimmery grey above the crease of your eye, or you can do a purple eye. Use a light color on your eyelid, move to a pale or pastel purple on your crease, and then apply a rich purple above your crease (don't go as dark as plum though).\\nFor green eyes, go for a shimmery brown look. Choose a light champagne for your eyelid, fill in your crease with a golden or beige eyeshadow, and then use a shimmery bronze above your crease.\\nMake sure that your eyeshadow doesn't meet your eyebrow. You want your eyeshadow to end a little bit above the crease of your eye and not any higher.\\nTo achieve a smokey eye look for events especially fancy, start with the lightest tone of eyeshadow in your inner eye (usually shiny whites, peaches, or very light browns), then move across the eye (towards the ears) with every shade getting progressively darker. For example, on a blue eye, you could start with a light white on the inner corners of your eyes, then cover most of your lid with a peach color shadow, and finally adding a darker peach/gold/bronze (or whichever darker color matches the shadows you've used) on the outer corners of your eyes, blending into the outer portion of your crease and around the edges of the outer eye.\\n2-4. Highlight your eyes with an eyeliner.\\nYou can use a liquid or pencil eyeliner on your eyelids. Draw a thin line of eyeliner on your top eyelid above your lash line, starting from the corner of your eye and moving to the end of your eyelid. For a more dramatic line, you can create a wing or cat eye with your eyeliner, drawing the line out past your eyelid half an inch or so.\\nWhen doing top eyeliner, it can be helpful to place a piece of tape next to your eye, so that your eyeliner has a nice boundary. Take a piece of scotch tape one inch long, and line it up with the outer edge of your lower eyelid. Place it at an angle so that extends away from your upper eyelid towards the end of your eyebrow.\\nThe color you choose for your eyeliner is up to you. Black is good for a fancy party, but if you have naturally light lashes, a light or dark brown may be better suited for you. You can also choose a fun color like a shimmery bronze or blue if you want to add some glitter to your eyes.\\nYou can use eyeliner on your lower lash line as well, but this often makes people's eyes look smaller. Using eyeliner above your lash line and then accentuating your lower lash with eyeshadow will make your eyes look bigger.\\nA thin slanted eyeshadow/eyebrow brush can be used to help smooth out any eyeliner bumps and perfect that fierce wing. Simply place a small bit of eyeliner onto the tip of the brush and carefully touch up any issues.\\n2-5. Apply eyeshadow under your eye.\\nThis is in place of your under eye eyeliner, or in addition to it. Use a medium shadow (not a white but not a dark grey.. something like a beige or brown) and apply a thin line of eyeshadow from the outer corner of your eye to the middle of your eye with a thin eyeshadow brush. Then, smudge and blend it in with your finger or with an eyeshadow brush.\\nIt is really your personal preference what you want to do under your eyes. Start by applying your upper eye makeup, and if you feel like you need something more, add under eye eyeliner or eyeshadow. If you like the way you look without something under your eye, then leave it at that. You could also choose a fun color for under your eye like a light blue or purple.\\n2-6. Apply mascara.\\nFor the final touches to your eye, choose a mascara suited for your hair color. Dip your mascara brush in your bottle (making sure you don't pump it as this can dry out the mascara) and start at the base of your top lashes, underneath them. Then, wiggle your mascara brush through your lashes. After you have applied one coat, apply one or two more coats until you have your desired color. \\nRepeat this step on your lower lashes, but apply the mascara to the top of the lashes instead of underneath them.\\nIf you have dark hair, use a black mascara. If you have light hair, try a dark brown or brown mascara. It will still look mostly black on your eyelashes, but won't make your lashes look spidery.\\nBefore you apply your mascara you can use an eyelash curler to add definition to your eyelashes.\\n3. Final Touches\\n3-1. Apply blush.\\nIf you plan on taking a lot of pictures at your party, blush is important because it can help highlight your cheekbones and prevent your face from looking pale or washed out.

You could also choose a fun color for under your eye like a light blue or purple.\"}, {\"编号\": 6, \"标题\": \"Apply mascara.\", \"描述\": \"For the final touches to your eye, choose a mascara suited for your hair color. Dip your mascara brush in your bottle (making sure you don't pump it as this can dry out the mascara) and start at the base of your top lashes, underneath them. Then, wiggle your mascara brush through your lashes. After you have applied one coat, apply one or two more coats until you have your desired color. \\nRepeat this step on your lower lashes, but apply the mascara to the top of the lashes instead of underneath them.\\nIf you have dark hair, use a black mascara. If you have light hair, try a dark brown or brown mascara. It will still look mostly black on your eyelashes, but won't make your lashes look spidery.\\nBefore you apply your mascara you can use an eyelash curler to add definition to your eyelashes.\"}]}, {\"编号\": 3, \"标题\": \"Final Touches\", \"步骤\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Apply blush.\", \"描述\": \"If you plan on taking a lot of pictures at your party, blush is important because it can help highlight your cheekbones and prevent your face from looking pale or washed out. Smile to locate the apple of your cheeks and then swipe on blush with a blush brush, blending it in until you get you desired color. Choose a blush color suited for your skin tone:\\nFair/ivory skin: Choose a baby pink or pale pink for your blush color. This is the most natural look for very fair skin as other shades can look orangey. For fair skin that is a little bit darker you can use a peach blush in a satin or sheer texture. If you want to go a little more dramatic for a night out, you can use a plum colored blush in a translucent shade. Choose a plum colored blush that is a shade or two darker than your lip color.\\nMedium skin: Wear a blush that is an apricot shade, as this will bring out the natural warm colors in your skin. You can also wear a pinky-berry color; because a pale pink looks good on fair skin, a medium pink will look good on medium skin. For a more dramatic look, choose a muted mauve (pale purple) color that has a hint of plum.\\nOlive skin: Look for warm tones like an orangey-peach, that will hide the green undertones in the skin. Wear a rose or bronze colored blush for a more dramatic look that will add warmth to your skin and help boost the olive color. If you have fair olive skin you can use these same colors, just don't apply as much blush.\\nDark skin: Go for bold, highly pigmented shades like raisin, brick, and cranberry. For a dramatic look, choose a bright tangerine that will be pretty and subtle on dark skin.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Moisturize your lips.\", \"描述\": \"This step is beneficial when you know you are going to be wearing your lipstick a long time.

You can choose a bright red, dark red, pink, or if you want something simple choose a neutral color. Once again, it is your personal preference. Here are some ideas for lip colors:\\nFor fair skin: Berry colors or blue-based shades of reds and purples; light pinks like candy pinks and sugars; nudes like pearl, honey, and peachy coral; honey browns; deep plums for a dramatic look\\nMedium/tan skin: Bright, orange based reds; bright or berry colored pinks; shimmery peaches and corals; gold based browns; and deep berries.\\nOlive skin: Bricks or rusty reds; light, glossy pinks; brown based shades of peach and tan; berry browns with hints of pink; medium shades of plum or berry\\nDark skin: Ruby, candy apple, and garnet reds; punch and fuchsia pinks; coppery peach nudes; deep, rich browns; mulberry and deep plum\"}, {\"编号\": 5, \"标题\": \"Blot your lips with a tissue.\", \"描述\": \"Once you have applied your lipstick, you may want to remove some of the color or any excess lipstick.

2,020 | How to Apply Makeup for a Natural Look | 1. Applying Makeup to Your Face
1-1. Clean your face of any previous makeup.
Put makeup remover or water on a cotton ball. Dab or rub the cotton ball in small circles to remove old makeup. Determine your skin type and cleanse, tone and moisturize with suitable products twice daily. If you have skin problems like spots/blackheads, exfoliate your skin.
1-2. Moisturize your face.
Using a small dab the size of a pea, gently rub in an unscented, oil free lotion. Scented lotions can aggravate your skin and cause breakouts or an allergic reaction, and oily lotions will encourage acne.
For a more natural look, instead of using foundation, use a tinted moisturizer. Tinted moisturizers blend in while evening out your skin tone and commonly contain SPF. Those lucky girls with clearer skin will look best using tinted moisturizer.
1-3. Apply concealer to any blemishes and around your eyes.
Applying your concealer before foundation helps keep foundation to a minimal amount. Make sure this is the exact same color as your skin. When you apply the concealer, do so directly on the spot and not around it. This is to avoid a halo effect and emphasis of the spot. Optionally set with beige powder.
Be careful not to overdo it on the concealer; you only need enough to cover the spot.
1-4. Apply a powder foundation on the oilier parts of your face.
Before you start, it’s best to determine whether or not you’re using the right foundation color. Get in a natural light and test the foundation to make sure it's the right color for your skin. Dab a few marks on your cheek and angle your face different ways to see if the color matches.
Take your finger or a sponge dab in the foundation, and dab it on your face, blending it until it looks like your skin tone. Be sure to go underneath your jaw line; if you stop at the edge of your face, there will be a clear line where the foundation ends, making it look like you’re wearing a mask.
You don't need to apply foundation to your entire face. Just put it on areas that don't have a consistent color and blend it in.
If you have bags or discoloration under your eyes, make 3 dots on the line of the circles under your eyes. Blend it gently using your ring finger.
1-5. Apply Bronzer.
Some people wait until after they have applied makeup to their eyes to add bronzer or blush. Bronzer is a great way to give yourself a natural glow. Lightly brush bronzer all over your face (or just along your cheekbones and T-Zone for a natural suntan appearance). However, bronzer can look silly on people with pale skin if applied incorrectly. Practice at home with bronzer to see if it looks good on you before going out with it on. If you don't like the way it looks, skip this step.
1-6. Apply Blush.
If you were not happy with bronzer, you can apply blush instead. Crème blush generally works better than powder because it gives you a dewy look and lasts longer. Using a champagne-tinted crème blush, rub a little on your ring finger and blend onto your cheekbones. Note that you should not apply both blush and bronzer; choose one.
2. Applying Eye Makeup
2-1. Line your upper lashline with a brown, black or gray kohl pencil.
Some women prefer not to do this, as eyeliner looks a little less natural than an eye with just mascara. Other beauty specialists say to line your eyes with a roasted-colored gel liner. Pencil looks less natural than liquid or gel liner and gel is easier to blend. Line two thirds of your top lashline and one third of your bottom lashline. Smudge the line with a cotton bud.
2-2. Use a white eyeliner to make your eyes look larger.
Line the inside corners of your eyes with either white eyeliner or white eyeshadow to give your eyes a brighter look.
Some people also like to add a bit of white eyeliner or shadow under the brow bone to make their eyes appear brighter and more awake.
2-3. Consider using eyeshadow.
Use two shades of eyeshadow for a professional look. The colors you choose should be golds, browns or silvers, depending on your skin tone and coloring. Apply a light, neutral tone all over your lid and just above your crease and use slightly darker to softly line the top lid and outline your crease. For a natural look, remember to blend the colors.
2-4. Curl your lashes
Curling your eyelashes will give you a bright, awake look. If you want to make your eyelashes stand out against your skin, put on one layer of your favorite mascara.
If you use mascara, avoid clumping by using a de-clumping brush or an eyebrow brush.
3. Applying Makeup to Your Lips
3-1. Apply a sheer nude lip color.
Avoid using chalky lipsticks or shiny lip glosses. Lip stain is generally best because it looks natural and lasts all day. Use a color that's close to your natural lip color.
3-2. Dab a tiny amount of the shimmering blush onto the center of your lips.
Test this step out at home before going out with it on--some people do not like the look of blush in the center of your lips. Do what feels (and looks) best to you!
3-3. Enjoy your dewy, fresh, radiant look.
Tips
Using natural makeup is healthier for your skin and can reduce blemishes. In fact, the mineral foundation doesn't clog your pores and is actually good for your skin, so you may want to invest in a good brand, but make sure to put a bit of the makeup on the back of your hand for 48 hours to make sure you are not allergic.[12]

Make sure you apply makeup in a bright, sunny place so you can see all your features clearly.
Try to go for a similar colour with blush and lipstick. It will bring out your natural features.

2,021 | How to Apply Makeup in Middle School | 1. Doing Subtle Makeup for School
1-1. Apply a light moisturizer over your face to prime it for makeup.
Put a pea-sized amount of moisturizer onto your finger, then dab it onto your face. Use your fingertips to work the moisturizer into your skin. Then, let it dry for 2-3 minutes before proceeding.
If you want more coverage, use a tinted moisturizer instead. Choose a shade that matches your skin tone. Start applying it at your nose, then work your way out to the edge of your face. Use a beauty blender or sponge to blend it into your hairline and jawline.
1-2. Use a concealer
You can use concealer over your moisturizer, whether it's tinted or not. Put a dot of concealer onto your fingertip, then dab it over the areas you want to conceal, like acne, redness, or dark circles. Gently tap the edges of your concealer until it blends into your skin or tinted moisturizer.
Make sure you don't rub the concealer. If you do, it will reveal the blemish you're trying to hide.
1-3. Swipe 1 coat of mascara onto your top lashes to open up your eyes.
Start in the inside corner of your eye. Put your mascara brush close to the bottom of your upper lashes. Then, slowly pull the brush through your lashes to apply the mascara. Make several swipes as you work your way toward the outside corner of your eye. This will help you coat all of your lashes.
You don't need mascara on your lower lashes, as this will make your face look overdone.
If you’re having trouble applying your mascara because you keep blinking, don’t worry. This is totally normal! To make things easier, hold your mascara wand in front of your eye, then blink to pull your lashes through the wand. Blink several times to coat your lashes.
Replace your mascara every 3 months because it starts to collect bacteria.
1-4. Put on tinted or clear lip balm or lip gloss.
Use plain lip balm or clear gloss for an easy look. If you want a little color, pick a tinted lip balm or gloss in a pink or berry shade that's close to your natural lip color. Apply lip balm directly from the container. If you're using lip gloss, use the wand that came with your container to apply a thin layer. Then, smack your lips together to make sure it's evenly applied.
If it's allowed, carry your lip balm or gloss so you can re-apply it as needed.
2. Creating a Natural Day Look
2-1. Build your everyday makeup kit.
Going to look at makeup is really exciting, but it can also be overwhelming because there are so many choices. When you’re new to makeup, you don’t really need that many items. Start with the basics, then add more things as you figure out what you like. Here are the key items you’ll need for your beginner makeup kit:
Tinted moisturizer
Concealer
Bronzer
Blush
Eyeshadow palette with natural shades
Lip gloss or tinted lip balm
Mascara
Makeup sponge and brushes - beauty blender/sponge (optional), powder brush, fan brush, eyeshadow brush
2-2. Apply a tinted moisturizer
Use your fingers or a beauty blender/sponge to dab the tinted moisturizer onto your skin. Start at your nose and blend out toward the edges of your face. Keep blending when your reach your hairline and jawline so that there’s not a harsh line around the edge of your face.
Tinted moisturizer is great because it evens out your skin tone but isn’t cakey.
It’s okay to skip this step if you just want to add a little color to your cheeks, eyes, and lips.
2-3. Dab a concealer
After you put on your tinted moisturizer, put a dot of concealer onto your fingertip. Then, gently dab the product directly onto pimples, red patches, or dark circles. Use your fingertip to blend the edges of the concealer until they aren’t noticeable.
Don’t rub the concealer, as this will make it come off the pimple.
You can use concealer with or without tinted moisturizer.
You may need to reapply your concealer throughout the day to keep it in place.
2-4. Sweep bronzer
Use a fantail brush because it will apply a light layer of product. Get a little bronzer onto the brush, then tap it to knock off excess product. Lightly sweep the bronzer across the top of your forehead. Then, dip and tap your brush again before sweeping it across your nose. Finally, apply a light sweep of bronzer along your jawline.
This step is optional, so it's okay to skip it.
Don’t apply more than 1 light sweep of bronzer or your face will look muddy.
If you have light skin, stick to a pale bronzer. For medium skin, choose a tan or sunkissed bronzer. If you have a dark skin tone, choose a deep or chocolate color.
2-5. Use a powder brush to sweep blush onto the apples of your cheeks.
Pick a pink, rose, or peach color. Get a little blush onto your powder brush, then tap it against the container to knock off the excess. Next, lightly brush the blush onto the apples of your cheeks. Apply 1-2 layers of blush to enhance your natural beauty.
If you have a light skin tone, pick a pale shade. Medium skin tones pair best with medium shades, while darker skin tones look best with deeper shades.
The apples of your cheeks are the roundest part of your cheeks. They’re usually right below your eyes and will get bigger when you smile.
2-6. Sweep 1-2 layers of a neutral eyeshadow
Use an eyeshadow brush to apply the eyeshadow, even if your product came with a brush. Get a little shadow onto your brush, then tap it to remove the excess. Start at the inner corner of your eye and lightly pull the brush across your eyelid. For your second layer, start at the outer corner of your eye and sweep the brush toward the inner corner of your eye.
When you're first starting to wear makeup, pick colors like tan, light brown, pink, and peach. Lighter skin tones look best with light shades, while medium skin tones should stick to medium shades. Darker skin tones will pair best with a deeper shade.
2-7. Apply a single coat of mascara on your top lashes to enhance your eyes.
Hold your mascara brush at the base of your eyelashes, then slowly pull up through your lashes. Make several swipes if necessary to coat all of your lashes. However, don’t apply more than 1 layer.
Don’t pump your mascara because this gets air into the tube, which can make bacteria grow.
2-8. Swipe on a tinted lip balm or lip gloss.
Pick a rose, pink, or peach color for a little tint, or stick to a clear balm or gloss. If you’re using lip balm, apply it to your lips straight from the tube. With lip gloss, use the wand that came with your gloss to apply a light layer of product onto your lips. Then, rub your lips together to make sure the balm or gloss is evenly applied.
While roses, pinks, and peaches are a great color for everyone, the shade can vary depending on your skin tone. For lighter skin tones, go with a pale shade. Medium skin tones can go with a neutral shade, while dark skin tones pair best with a deeper shade.
Use lip balm if you want a subtle look or applied a color on your eyes. If you want to play up your lips, try a gloss.
3. Trying a Glam Look
3-1. Even out your skin tone with tinted moisturizer to create a base.
Use your beauty blender/sponge or your fingers to apply the tinted moisturizer. Start on your nose and work your way out to the edge of your face. Blend the moisturizer into your hairline and jawline to make it look natural. Put a small amount of concealer on blemishes and dark circles.
It’s best to skip foundation when you’re a tween. It will just look cakey and overdone, and it could break you out. Don't use it unless you need more coverage than BB cream and concealer.
3-2. Use a fantail brush to apply your bronzer to define your cheekbones.
Dip the brush into your bronzer, then tap the brush on the side of the container to knock off any excess product. Next, sweep the bronzer underneath your cheek bones. This will create some contour on your face with just a little bit of makeup.
It’s okay to skip this step! However, it’s a great option if you want to try the contouring trend that’s popular on social media.
3-3. Sweep blush onto the apples of your cheeks using a powder brush.
Dip your powder brush into the blush, then tap it to remove the excess. Apply the brush to your cheeks, then put on a second layer, if you like.
You can use the same blush you use for your day look, or you can go a shade darker.
3-4. Apply a metallic eyeshadow for a bolder eye look.
Choose a bronze, gold, or silver eyeshadow. Get a little shadow onto your eyeshadow brush, then tap to remove the excess. Start in the inner corner of your eye and sweep the shadow across your eyelid. Next, apply a second layer starting in the outer corner of your eye.
It’s okay to apply a little more shadow when you’re going for a glam look.
Don’t worry about blending and contouring your eyes when you’re first getting started. Your metallic eyeshadow is all you need for a glam look that won’t look overdone or cakey.
3-5. Use a pencil eyeliner
Position your eyeliner pencil at the inner corner of your eye, then carefully draw a line to the middle of your eye. Move the pencil to the outer corner of your eye and draw a line to meet the first line. Next, line your other eye using the same technique.
As another option, draw several tiny dashes along your lash line from the outer corner to the inner corner.
Don’t line your bottom lashes, as this will look overdone.
Stick to brown eyeliner at first because it’s more subtle. When you’re ready, try black eyeliner for special occasions.
Pencil eyeliner is easiest to use, so use it at first. Later, you can play with other types of eyeliner.
3-6. Apply 1 coat of mascara to your top and bottom lashes.
Pull the mascara through your bottom lashes first. Then, position the mascara wand at the base of your top lashes and pull in through the lashes. Make several swipes to coat all of your lashes with 1 layer of mascara.
Don’t apply several coats of mascara because they will end up looking cakey.
3-7. Use a sheer lipstick for a subtle glam effect.
Sheer lipstick is a great option for tweens because it provides a little color but isn’t too dark. Choose a pink, peach, berry, or light red shade for a glam look. Then, apply a thin layer of your lipstick directly from the applicator. Finally, rub your lips together to make sure it’s even.
Try out different colors to see which one you like. Ask for samples at your local makeup counter or buy your product at a store that allows returns.
Tips
If you can, visit a makeup counter at your local department store for a quick tutorial about how to apply makeup. This is an easy way to get one-on-one instruction from a professional.[32]

Research source
Make sure that you are actually allowed to wear makeup at your school, if you intend to do so.
Try new colors and techniques on weekends or breaks so you have time to wash your face and start over if you don’t like them. Everyone has makeup disasters, so don’t worry if a particular look doesn’t work for you.
Warnings
Don't put more makeup on before gym class because it will likely melt off. Plus, you’ll probably end up with streaks on your face, and the makeup could clog your pores, which leads to pimples.
Don’t forget to take your makeup off before you go to sleep at night! Neglecting to do so will lead to breakouts and irritation.
Stick to only a few brands so that if you have an allergic reaction you will know which brand you should stop using.

2,022 | How to Apply Makeup in Sixth Grade | 1. Applying Makeup for School
1-1. Wear minimal makeup.
You don’t need to wear very much makeup. Keep your makeup simple and light so you don’t overwhelm your face. Makeup is a fun way to enhance your features, but it is not meant to change your appearance. Only wear a little bit of makeup and keep the colors you wear to school natural.
1-2. Apply powder, BB cream and concealer.
Find a BB cream that matches your skin color and take a small amount of it, then blend it in with a beauty blender or your hands. Then put small dots of concealer on blemishes and dark circles. Choose a loose powder color that matches your skin tone. Use a large brush or a puff that comes with the powder. Put powder onto the brush or puff and apply it to your face. Start by putting the powder on your nose and cheeks then work your way out.
You might not even need to use powder and BB cream, if you have minimal blemishes, you might just be able to use concealer.
1-3. Apply mascara.
You can use a clear mascara or black or brown mascara. Remove the wand from the bottle and scrape off excess makeup onto the side. Sweep the mascara onto your eyelashes from the root of the lashes to the ends. You can do one or two coats of mascara on your top lashes. Only use a little bit of mascara on your bottom lashes.
1-4. Use a simple lip gloss.
You can start by applying a clear lip gloss or you can apply a colored lip gloss. Stick to simple colors like shades of pink. Apply the lip gloss on your lips to make them appear shinier and brighter.
2. Applying Makeup for a Date
2-1. Be yourself.
Wearing makeup can impress your date, but don’t change who you are. If you are going on a date, wear as much makeup that you feel is true to yourself. If you never wear makeup and feel uncomfortable in it, then don’t show up to the date with a ton of makeup on. If you will feel more confident with a little bit of makeup on, then wear makeup for your date.
2-2. Apply tinted moisturizer, concealer and powder.
You will want your skin to glow on your date. You can apply a tinted moisturizer like a BB cream for your date or you can apply a powder. Use a large brush or a puff to apply powder to your face. Use a small amount of concealer for blemishes and dark circles. Remember to use face makeup that matches your skin tone and to wash it off at night.
2-3. Try natural eyeshadow.
If you want a little extra makeup, apply a natural colored eyeshadow. Use a color such as a beige or brown to enhance your eyes. You can use just one color or you can use a couple of shades of the same color. Apply the eyeshadow to your eyelids with an eyeshadow brush.
2-4. Put on a few extra coats of mascara.
Use a natural colored mascara such as black or dark brown and apply it to your eyelashes. Do two or three coats of mascara to really make your eyes pop for the date.
Consider getting a waterproof mascara if the date is outside and you are going to be sweating.
2-5. Consider trying blush.
You can put a small amount of blush on your cheeks with a blush brush. Look in the mirror and smile. Apply blush only to the “apples” of your cheeks. These are the areas of your cheeks that pop out when you smile. Apply a small amount of blush in a circular motion.
2-6. Try a lip tint or stain.
Use a lip tint or stain for your date in a bright or neutral color. Lip tint won’t come off when you eat so you won’t have any embarrassing lip stick marks on your face part way through the date.
3. Applying Makeup for a Party
3-1. Apply foundation.
There are many types of foundation. You can just apply a powder foundation or you can apply something with more coverage such as a liquid foundation or a moisturizing BB cream. Apply a bit of concealer for blemishes and dark circles. Maybe add powder to set it. Make sure your foundation matches your skin tone and that you wash it off at the end of the night. Sleeping in foundation can give you acne.
3-2. Apply eyeshadow.
You can use natural eyeshadow colors such as beiges and browns or colorful eyeshadow. Less is more when it comes to eyeshadow so be careful not to put on too much. You can use just one color or mix two or three shades of a color. Use a makeup brush to apply eyeshadow, not your finger.
If you use a color, consider trying it with a natural shade. Put a beige on your entire eyelid then only put the colored eyeshadow on your eye line only.
Try glitter eyeshadow for something extra fun.
3-3. Try eyeliner.
If you want, you can try to apply eyeliner. Eyeliner can be difficult to apply, but it can be fun to wear for a party. You can purchase traditional black eyeliner or colored eyeliner. Liquid eyeliner and gel eyeliner are the boldest types, but they are the most difficult to apply. Use a pencil eyeliner if you are just starting out using eyeliner.
Apply eyeliner where your eyelashes meet your eyelids. Be very careful and try to make the eyeliner smooth and consistent across your eye line.
3-4. Use mascara.
When you are finished applying any eyeshadow and eyeliner you want to use, apply mascara. Sweep the mascara on your eyelashes from the roots to the ends. You can use black or brown mascara or you can mix it up for the special occasion and use a colored mascara.
To make your eyes look bigger, curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler before you apply mascara.
3-5. Make your lips offset your eyes.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Applying Makeup for School\\n1-1. Wear minimal makeup.\\nYou don’t need to wear very much makeup. Keep your makeup simple and light so you don’t overwhelm your face. Makeup is a fun way to enhance your features, but it is not meant to change your appearance. Only wear a little bit of makeup and keep the colors you wear to school natural.\\n1-2. Apply powder, BB cream and concealer.\\nFind a BB cream that matches your skin color and take a small amount of it, then blend it in with a beauty blender or your hands. Then put small dots of concealer on blemishes and dark circles. Choose a loose powder color that matches your skin tone. Use a large brush or a puff that comes with the powder. Put powder onto the brush or puff and apply it to your face. Start by putting the powder on your nose and cheeks then work your way out.\\nYou might not even need to use powder and BB cream, if you have minimal blemishes, you might just be able to use concealer.\\n1-3. Apply mascara.\\nYou can use a clear mascara or black or brown mascara. Remove the wand from the bottle and scrape off excess makeup onto the side. Sweep the mascara onto your eyelashes from the root of the lashes to the ends. You can do one or two coats of mascara on your top lashes. Only use a little bit of mascara on your bottom lashes.\\n1-4. Use a simple lip gloss.\\nYou can start by applying a clear lip gloss or you can apply a colored lip gloss. Stick to simple colors like shades of pink. Apply the lip gloss on your lips to make them appear shinier and brighter.\\n2. Applying Makeup for a Date\\n2-1. Be yourself.\\nWearing makeup can impress your date, but don’t change who you are. If you are going on a date, wear as much makeup that you feel is true to yourself. If you never wear makeup and feel uncomfortable in it, then don’t show up to the date with a ton of makeup on. If you will feel more confident with a little bit of makeup on, then wear makeup for your date.\\n2-2. Apply tinted moisturizer, concealer and powder.\\nYou will want your skin to glow on your date. You can apply a tinted moisturizer like a BB cream for your date or you can apply a powder. Use a large brush or a puff to apply powder to your face. Use a small amount of concealer for blemishes and dark circles. Remember to use face makeup that matches your skin tone and to wash it off at night.\\n2-3. Try natural eyeshadow.\\nIf you want a little extra makeup, apply a natural colored eyeshadow. Use a color such as a beige or brown to enhance your eyes.

Put on a few extra coats of mascara.\\nUse a natural colored mascara such as black or dark brown and apply it to your eyelashes. Do two or three coats of mascara to really make your eyes pop for the date.\\nConsider getting a waterproof mascara if the date is outside and you are going to be sweating.\\n2-5. Consider trying blush.\\nYou can put a small amount of blush on your cheeks with a blush brush. Look in the mirror and smile. Apply blush only to the “apples” of your cheeks. These are the areas of your cheeks that pop out when you smile. Apply a small amount of blush in a circular motion.\\n2-6. Try a lip tint or stain.\\nUse a lip tint or stain for your date in a bright or neutral color. Lip tint won’t come off when you eat so you won’t have any embarrassing lip stick marks on your face part way through the date.\\n3. Applying Makeup for a Party\\n3-1. Apply foundation.\\nThere are many types of foundation. You can just apply a powder foundation or you can apply something with more coverage such as a liquid foundation or a moisturizing BB cream. Apply a bit of concealer for blemishes and dark circles. Maybe add powder to set it. Make sure your foundation matches your skin tone and that you wash it off at the end of the night. Sleeping in foundation can give you acne.\\n3-2. Apply eyeshadow.\\nYou can use natural eyeshadow colors such as beiges and browns or colorful eyeshadow. Less is more when it comes to eyeshadow so be careful not to put on too much. You can use just one color or mix two or three shades of a color. Use a makeup brush to apply eyeshadow, not your finger.\\nIf you use a color, consider trying it with a natural shade. Put a beige on your entire eyelid then only put the colored eyeshadow on your eye line only.\\nTry glitter eyeshadow for something extra fun.\\n3-3. Try eyeliner.\\nIf you want, you can try to apply eyeliner. Eyeliner can be difficult to apply, but it can be fun to wear for a party. You can purchase traditional black eyeliner or colored eyeliner. Liquid eyeliner and gel eyeliner are the boldest types, but they are the most difficult to apply. Use a pencil eyeliner if you are just starting out using eyeliner.\\nApply eyeliner where your eyelashes meet your eyelids. Be very careful and try to make the eyeliner smooth and consistent across your eye line.\\n3-4. Use mascara.\\nWhen you are finished applying any eyeshadow and eyeliner you want to use, apply mascara. Sweep the mascara on your eyelashes from the roots to the ends. You can use black or brown mascara or you can mix it up for the special occasion and use a colored mascara.\\nTo make your eyes look bigger, curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler before you apply mascara.\\n3-5. Make your lips offset your eyes.\\nApply a colored lip gloss or lip stick to your lips that offsets your eye makeup. If you used really colorful eye makeup, wear lip gloss that is a light color that matches your lips. If you used natural colored eye makeup, you can wear a lip color that is a bright color like bright pink or red.\\nTips\\nRemember to only use a little bit of makeup.\\nAsk a parent or older sibling for help applying makeup.\\nRemember that makeup is fun, but it is not necessary.\\nWarnings\\nWash your face every day and never sleep with makeup on.\\nRemember to always wash your face after you are done with the makeup\\nAsk your parents’ permission before you apply makeup.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Sixth grade is a big year.

2,023 | How to Apply Makeup on Oily Skin | 1. Preparing Your Skin
1-1. Pre-cleanse and cleanse your face.
When you apply makeup, it is best to begin the application on a clean, well-hydrated canvas. Prior to cleansing your face, you should pre-cleanse your skin. Rinse your face with warm water to remove dirt and oils from the surface of your skin. Apply a gentle cleanser to your clean, damp face. Rinse away the product and pat your face dry with a clean towel.
Resist the urge to wash your oily skin multiple times a day. This will strip your face of its natural moisture and send your oil production into hyperdrive. Instead, wash your face once in the morning and once in the evening before bed.
1-2. Apply toner.
Toners are formulated to remove excess dirt, makeup, and oils from your skin. Saturate a cotton ball with your oil free toner. Wipe the cotton ball across your face—avoid your eyes. Allow the product to air dry.
To avoid dehydrating your skin, use an alcohol-free toner once per day.
Rosewater and witch hazel are excellent natural toners.
1-3. Moisturize your skin.
Your pores are over producing oil to compensate for dehydrated skin. Although it seems counterintuitive, oily skin needs additional moisture. It does not, however, need any additional oil. When you select a moisturizer, look for a lightweight product that is oil-free, mattifying, and shine-reducing. Apply a thin layer of light moisturizer to your face.
Mattifying moisturizers actually help to absorb excess oil from your skin.
Select a SPF moisturizer for extra protection.
Even if you have oily skin, you likely need to moisturize, and avoid using products with drying ingredients like alcohol. Often, oiliness on your skin is actually caused because your skin isn't hydrated enough, so it overproduces oil. Instead, try to find a good balance of moisture for your skin that will help you combat oil.
1-4. Exfoliate your skin
Oily skin causes your skin to overproduce oil and skin cells, which build up and clog your pores. To prevent this, exfoliate your skin 3 to 4 times per week with an exfoliating wash. Apply the exfoliant to wet skin and then massage it into your skin using a circular motion. Rinse your face thoroughly and pat your skin dry.
Choose a chemical exfoliant, such as one that contains beta-hydroxy acid.
Look for a sugar scrub for a gentle way to exfoliate your skin.
2. Applying Makeup
2-1. Apply a matte primer to your face and eyelids.
Primer provides a smooth, shine free base for your makeup. These products prevent your makeup from “melting” off your face. When selecting a primer, opt for a mattifying, oil free product in a powder or liquid-to-powder form. Apply a thin, even layer of primer to your face—don’t forget your eyelids.
You can purchase and apply a separate primer for your eyelids.
2-2. Conceal your blemishes.
Oily skin is prone to breakouts and blemishes. Applying light layers of liquid matte concealer will help to minimize these imperfections without causing new breakouts. Use the wand or a concealer brush to cover your dark circles, red marks, and imperfections.
For additional coverage, apply a layer of liquid concealer, followed by a layer of powder foundation and another layer of liquid concealer. Seal in the makeup with a final coat of powder foundation. The more layers you apply, the less likely you are to see shiny spots throughout the day. This application method may require several touch ups.
Avoid cream concealers—they will clog your pores.
2-3. Use a foundation formulated for oily skin.
Long-lasting powder foundations create an even complexion while combating excess oil. Before you purchase foundation, read the label carefully—make sure the product is oil-free, mattifying, and noncomedogenic (will not clog your pores). Apply a thin, even layer of powder with a large powder brush. Move the brush in a circular and dabbing motion.
If you need additional coverage, apply a second layer of powder with a clean, damp sponge. Move the sponge in a circular and dabbing motion.
If you do not like powder foundation, select a mousse foundation or a water-based liquid foundation.
2-4. Apply a loose finishing powder.
Translucent matte powder provides another barrier against oily skin. Pour a small amount of powder into the makeup container’s lid. Swirl a kabuki brush or a powder brush inside the lid until all the powder disappears. To apply a thin coat of matte finishing powder over your foundation, move the brush in big circles from the inside of your face to the outside of your face.
You can apply the powder to your eyelids too.
2-5. Add a flush to your cheeks.
Mattifying blush will produce a radiant glow while fighting off excess oil. You may apply the powder matte blush with a traditional blush brush or a powder blush. Circle the brush from the apples of your cheeks to your upper ear.
Avoid shimmery blushes because they will make you look shiny.
Powder matte blush will stay on your cheeks longer than a cream matte blush.
3. Combating Oily Skin Throughout the Day and Week
3-1. Blot away oil.
At some point in the day, your natural oils will inevitably seep through your matte makeup. Blotting paper will remove the spots of oil from your face without wiping away your makeup. Gently press a sheet of blotting paper onto the oily spot—do not rub it across your entire face. Once the oil is absorbed, carefully peel the paper off of your skin.
You can purchase blotting paper that will absorb oil AND leave powder on the oily spot.
3-2. Mask the oily spot with powder.
After you have removed the oil, cover the area with powder. The powder will help to absorb any remaining oil and help you maintain an even complexion. Use a puff, sponge, or beauty blender to press the powder into the oily spot.
Always carry powder with you.
3-3. Apply an oil-fighting face mask.
Once or twice a week, consider treating yourself to an oil-absorbing face mask. Find a mask that contains kaolin or bentonite clay. Apply a thin layer of the mask to your face. Allow it to harden for 10 to 15 minutes. Rinse off the mask with warm water.
Kaolin or bentonite clays absorb oil while soothing irritations.
Tips
Wash your hands before applying makeup.
Choose a powder that has oil controlling properties, or a powder for oily skin.
Oil-Blotting sheets are great for getting rid of excess oil throughout the day, you can buy them from drugstores.
Warnings
If using a primer, make sure it is oil free.

2,024 | How to Apply Makeup on Round Eyes | 1. Laying Down the Basic Foundation
1-1. Do your eyebrows.
Starting off, you should apply makeup to your eyebrows. When you have round eyes, adding a slight arch to your eyebrows can help make your eyes look bigger and more defined.
If necessary, gently pluck your eyebrows into an arched shape. Strive to straighten out your eyebrows when plucking them, and angle the ends of each brow to form a pointed shape.
Apply brow makeup in slow, steady swipes on the tip of each brow. Draw out the tips so they form a point. Then, take a brow plumper and brow brush. Paint the plumper across the length of your eyebrow. This will make your brows look more natural as you'll be using the plumper to blend your main brow with the drawn on tips.
1-2. Add eyelid primer.
A layer of eyelid primer can really help your color stand out. Dab a makeup brush in your chosen primer. Then, apply to your lids in circular motions. Make tiny circles with the brush as you slide it across your eyelid. Apply to the entirety of your eyelid, as well as to the area between your eyelid and eyebrow.
1-3. Add concealer around your eyes.
It's best to hold off on applying foundation to your face until you're done with eye makeup. Bits of mascara or eyeshadow can spread on your face, contaminating foundation. However, a layer of concealer applied around the eyes is important. This will cover up any shadowy areas and discoloration.
Dab a bit of cover up all around your eye. Then, wash your hands and blend the cover up into your skin using your fingers.
If you'd rather not use your fingers, you can also use a small makeup brush to blend the cover up into your skin.
1-4. Put a neutral shade of eyeshadow on your lid and brow bone.
Round eyes have a tendency to look somewhat sunken in. Adding a base of neutral eyeshadow to your eye can help correct this problem by making your eyes look brighter and more defined.
Take a larger, fluffier makeup brush and dab it in a neutral shade of eyeshadow. Pick a shade that matches your natural skin tone.
Brush your eyelid with the shade using gently, sideways motion. Continue from your eyelid onto your brown bone. Apply the shade until just under your eyebrow.
1-5. Use a highlight shade on your tear ducts and under your eyebrows.
You'll want a somewhat shimmery, bright shade now. Pick something close to your natural skin tone but slightly brighter. You'll be using a corner eyeshadow brush to highlight your tear ducts, as well as under your eyebrows. This can really help in preventing the sunken in look.
Your tear ducts are found on the inner corners of your eyes. Rub your corner eyeshadow brush in some of your chosen eyeshadow.
Turn the eyeshadow brush sideways. Slowly draw a line of the eyeshadow that outlines your tear ducts. Draw one line on the upper lid, and one line on the lower lid. You want a small shape, something like a sideways "V", encasing your tear ducts.
You should also apply a thin line of the shimmery shade underneath your eyebrow. Simply draw on a line or your chosen eyeshadow just underneath each eyebrow.
2. Adding the Rest of the Makeup
2-1. Apply pencil or liquid eyeliner.
The type of eyeliner you choose depends on your preference. Some people prefer working with liquids, while others prefer pencils. With round eyes, you want to apply liner to the outer corners of each eye. This can make your eyes pop, and also elongate them slightly.
Start with your upper eyelid. You'll be applying the liner along your lash line. This refers to the portion of your eye just above your eye lashes. You will not be covering your entire lash line. You'll start about half a centimeter away from the outer corner of your eye.
Slowly move your brush or your pencil along the lash line, working towards the outer corner of your eye. Strive for a thin, neat line. When you reach the end of your lash line, add a small wing to the skin just outside the corner of your eye. The wing should be very small, less than a quarter of a centimeter. To make this wing, use your eyeliner to add a small upturned line that points towards the end of your eyebrow.
On the bottom lid, draw another line just below your bottom eye lashes. As with the first line, draw a straight, thin line starting about half a centimeter away from the outer corner of your eye. Keep drawing until the second line merges with the first line.
2-2. Add some eyeshadow to the outer corners of your eyes.
In order to brighten your eyes, you want to add some eyeshadow to the outer corners. Once again, you'll be working with your corner brush. Here, you'll want to choose a slightly darker shade. A brown or a gray would work well. This will balance out the lighter eyeshadow covering the inner corners of your eye.
Apply eyeshadow to your corner brush. Then, blend the eyeshadow slightly into the eye liner on the outer corner of your eye. From here, move your brush upward slightly. Create a curved shape outlining the outer corner of your eyelid.
Focus mainly on the outer edges of your eyelid here. Make sure to get into the crease where your eyelid meets the curve of your brow bone.
Then, add a small, thin line of the eyeshadow underneath your eye below your bottom lash line. This will create a sideways "V" shape that contains the outermost corner of your eyelid.
2-3. Consider adding a flattering shadow over the remaining lid.
If you're looking for a causal, every day look you should only apply eyeshadow to the corners of your eyes. However, for a night on the town, consider adding a fun, flattering eyeshadow to the remainder of your eyelid. Choose a shade of eyeshadow and use a larger eyeshadow brush to apply this to the remainder of your eyelid, filling in the space between the corners of your eyes. The shade is up to you. You may want to pick something that goes well with your eye color. Brown eyes may look great with a brown or gray shade, for example.
If you want something fun, consider sparkly eyeshadow. This could be great if you're going clubbing.
2-4. Blend with a fluff brush.
Take a large fluff brush. You will use this to blend the eyeshadow on your outer lids into the remainder of your eye. Using sideways motions, swipe your flush brush back and forth from the corner of your eyelid to the center of your eyelid. Keep going until the eyeshadow is more evenly dispersed throughout your eyelid. It should look slightly lighter and more spread out when you're finished.
2-5. Curl your lashes and apply mascara.
Take an eyelash curler and clamp it onto your eyelashes. Hold for a few seconds to give the nails a bit of a curl. With round eyes, curly eyelashes can make your eyes pop and look bigger. Then, take your chosen brand of mascara. Starting at the base of your eyelashes and comb your eyelashes upward in slow, steady motions. Wiggle the brush slightly as you go, as this helps separate your lashes.
3. Avoiding Pitfalls
3-1. Avoid the cute look with darker shadow.
Many people associate round eyes with a cute look. If you want to go for sexy or sophisticated over cute, go for a dark eyeshadow. A shade like gray or black can really help stave off the cute look. Apply the shadow to both corners of your eye.
3-2. Use darker mascara on your bottom eyelashes if you choose to color them.
Round eyes often look sunken in. A good way to avoid this is to use different types of mascara on your upper and lower eyelashes. Use a lighter shade of mascara on the upper lids, and a darker shade on the lower lids. This will make your eyes pop upward more, making them appear brighter and bigger.
3-3. Make sure eyeliner moves upward.
Round eyes can look somewhat droopy. A good way to counteract this is to make sure you move upward with eyeliner. If you create a wing, always have the tip pointed up. A downward wing can make round eyes look droopier and duller.
Tips
Be creative and use many colors according to your iris color as well.
Use eye primer in order to make the colors more vibrant. The eyeshadow won't crease and will stay longer.

2,025 | How to Apply Makeup to Dry Skin | 1. Priming Your Face
1-1. Wash your face.
No matter what kind of skin you have, always wash your face before putting on makeup. This will give you the ideal canvas for your makeup by leaving skin fresh and ready for anything you put on it. It also will wash away any leftover makeup or products that you may have used. This will prevent breakouts and clogged pores.
Use a gentle face wash formulated for dry skin to wash your face. Face washes meant for normal or oily skin will be too aggressive, and could cause dryness to get worse.
1-2. Moisturize your skin.
After washing your face, apply moisturizer to your skin, focusing it on the driest areas. For many, the area around the nose and the space between the eyebrows tend to be the driest areas.
Use an extra-hydrating moisturizer formulated for dry skin.
Apply enough moisturizer so that it gets absorbed by the skin, but not so much that the skin feels greasy with moisturizer.
1-3. Apply face primer.
Primer is a sheer, gel-like base that goes on skin before applying makeup. For dry skin, primer is especially useful because it gives your skin a smoother base, so that makeup can be applied without getting stuck to dry patches of skin. To apply primer, take a dot of it on your finger and pat it into sections of the face.
Do not apply too much primer. In general, use one dot for small areas like your chin and nose, and two dots for larger areas like your cheeks or forehead.
1-4. Apply eye primer.
Eye primer helps eyeshadow and eyeliner glide on smoother, and makes eye makeup more blendable. It also is often tinted to give your eyelid a more uniform color. If your eyelids are dry, they may appear red or irritated. Eye primer will moisturize without making your lids too oily, and will help combat discoloration.
Apply one dot of eye primer to each lid and pat it on with your fingertip.
1-5. Apply chapstick.
If you suffer from dry skin, your lips may also be chapped. Chapped lips make it almost impossible to apply lipstick or other lip products smoothly. Patchy lipstick is one of the most obvious makeup faux pas, so make sure to use a layer of chapstick before you apply your makeup.
2. Applying Foundation and Concealer
2-1. Use face makeup meant for dry skin.
Make sure you are using foundation and concealer meant for dry skin. Foundation meant for dry skin is packed with more moisture than foundation meant for oily or normal skin, meaning that it will glide on easier and keep your skin feeling enriched and fresh, as opposed to making it feel depleted.
Don't overlook the importance of the right foundation. Applying foundation smoothly is often the biggest struggle for those with dry skin, so if you think your foundation may not be working for you, it may be best to invest in a new one.
If you feel like drugstore-quality foundation isn't working for you, visit a high-end makeup store like Sephora or Mac. Tell a sales associate that you are looking for a foundation for dry skin. Sample several foundations and apply them until you find one that works for your skin.
2-2. Use liquid foundation as opposed to a powder foundation.
If you are using powder foundation, this may be the cause of some of your makeup woes. Powder foundation is great for people with oily skin, because it helps to absorb excess oil and moisture on the skin. However, it you have dry skin as it is, using powder foundation will only leave your skin more dried out than before. The powder will cling to the dry areas of your face, making foundation look patchy, especially from up close.
Buy a liquid foundation at the drugstore or at makeup stores like Ulta or Sephora.
Also make sure to use a cream concealer as opposed to a stick concealer.
2-3. Apply foundation.
Pick an area of your face to start applying foundation. Dab a small amount of liquid foundation onto your finger, then tap the foundation onto your face. Use a foundation brush to blend the foundation into your skin. Repeat as desired for your whole face, except for your under eye area and your eyelids.
If you have dry skin, you may notice that your skin is often flaky. Using a brush as opposed to your fingers to blend foundation minimizes flaking since brushes are gentler.
Do not press too hard with the brush. Instead, use a soft series of repetitive taps that blends in and spreads the foundation to the area you are working on.
2-4. Apply concealer.
Use a liquid or cream concealer on your undereye area, and any other area that you feel needs more coverage. Apply concealer like you applied the liquid foundation, using a series of small pats.Use a small brush that can reach all the areas of the under eye.
2-5. Use a setting spray.
Use setting spray, as opposed to powder, to set your makeup. Hold the spray about a foot from your face and give your face a gentle mist. Setting spray has a moisturizing effect, as opposed to setting powder which will absorb precious moisture.
3. Applying the Rest of Your Makeup
3-1. Apply your eye makeup.
With your eyes already primed, apply your eye makeup as you usually do. You should notice that with the primer in place, it is easier to blend your eyeshadow, and your liner pencil should glide on more smoothly.
If you notice that your eyelids are still dry, apply liquid liner as opposed to pencil liner.
You also can use cream-based eyeshadows, though they are less easy to blend than powders.
3-2. Use liquid blush.
If your cheeks and cheekbone areas are prone to dryness, making your blush go on patchily, try a liquid blush. Liquid blush not only goes on smoother, but it lasts longer and is more heat resistant during hot days. To use liquid blush, dab a dot of it on your cheekbones and spread with a blush brush in small pats.
3-3. Apply your lipstick.
By the time you have put on your foundation, blush and eye makeup, your lips may be starting to feel dry again. Apply a thin coat of chapstick. Wait for a moment for it to sink in, and then apply your lipstick. Try to avoid matte lipsticks, or long-lasting lipsticks, as these have a drying effect.
If do decide to use a matte lipstick that leaves your lips feeling dry, dab a bit of Vaseline or chapstick onto your finger, then pat this onto your lips. This will leave your lips feeling moisturized, and will counteract the drying effect of the lip product you are using.
3-4. Apply highlighter for a dewy look.
If you are self-conscious about your skin appearing dry, use a liquid highlighter to give your skin a fresh, dewy look. Use a liquid highlighter, and dab a drop on the top of each cheekbone. Pat it in using your finger in a diagonal along the ridge of your cheekbone.
Applying highlighter won't actually make your skin less dry, but it will give you a fresh and healthy look.
3-5. Refresh your makeup throughout the day.
Check up on your makeup every couple of hours. If you notice that your skin is flaking or dry patches have appeared, revitalize your skin. First take a pair of tweezers and tweeze off any flakes of dry skin. Then use a patting motion to apply a dot of moisturizer to each dry patch. Moisturizer will give your skin the moisture and nourishment that it needs, and it will make your makeup look less dry and cakey.
Make sure to not to use too much moisturizer, and to pat as opposed to rub the moisturizer in. Rubbing can remove your foundation and concealer.
Tips
Take your time patting in your foundation and blush. You want to be sure that it is integrated into your skin, or else the makeup will stay on the surface of your skin and look uneven.
Make sure that you are applying your makeup in a well-lit environment. You need to make sure that your makeup looks flawless even in a brightly-lit space.
If you still notice patchiness with your foundation, consider investing in a higher-quality foundation. Sometimes simply buying a better quality product can make all the difference.
Warnings
Always be careful when applying makeup around the eye area. If you get makeup in your eye, flush your eye with cool water immediately.
Make sure to wash your makeup brushes and tools at least once a month.They can be carriers of germs and bacteria. Also try to sharpen eyeliner pencils after a couple uses.

This will give you the ideal canvas for your makeup by leaving skin fresh and ready for anything you put on it. It also will wash away any leftover makeup or products that you may have used. This will prevent breakouts and clogged pores.\\nUse a gentle face wash formulated for dry skin to wash your face. Face washes meant for normal or oily skin will be too aggressive, and could cause dryness to get worse.\\n1-2. Moisturize your skin.\\nAfter washing your face, apply moisturizer to your skin, focusing it on the driest areas. For many, the area around the nose and the space between the eyebrows tend to be the driest areas.\\nUse an extra-hydrating moisturizer formulated for dry skin.\\nApply enough moisturizer so that it gets absorbed by the skin, but not so much that the skin feels greasy with moisturizer.\\n1-3. Apply face primer.\\nPrimer is a sheer, gel-like base that goes on skin before applying makeup. For dry skin, primer is especially useful because it gives your skin a smoother base, so that makeup can be applied without getting stuck to dry patches of skin. To apply primer, take a dot of it on your finger and pat it into sections of the face.\\nDo not apply too much primer. In general, use one dot for small areas like your chin and nose, and two dots for larger areas like your cheeks or forehead.\\n1-4. Apply eye primer.\\nEye primer helps eyeshadow and eyeliner glide on smoother, and makes eye makeup more blendable. It also is often tinted to give your eyelid a more uniform color. If your eyelids are dry, they may appear red or irritated. Eye primer will moisturize without making your lids too oily, and will help combat discoloration.\\nApply one dot of eye primer to each lid and pat it on with your fingertip.\\n1-5. Apply chapstick.\\nIf you suffer from dry skin, your lips may also be chapped. Chapped lips make it almost impossible to apply lipstick or other lip products smoothly. Patchy lipstick is one of the most obvious makeup faux pas, so make sure to use a layer of chapstick before you apply your makeup.\\n2. Applying Foundation and Concealer\\n2-1. Use face makeup meant for dry skin.\\nMake sure you are using foundation and concealer meant for dry skin. Foundation meant for dry skin is packed with more moisture than foundation meant for oily or normal skin, meaning that it will glide on easier and keep your skin feeling enriched and fresh, as opposed to making it feel depleted.\\nDon't overlook the importance of the right foundation. Applying foundation smoothly is often the biggest struggle for those with dry skin, so if you think your foundation may not be working for you, it may be best to invest in a new one.\\nIf you feel like drugstore-quality foundation isn't working for you, visit a high-end makeup store like Sephora or Mac. Tell a sales associate that you are looking for a foundation for dry skin. Sample several foundations and apply them until you find one that works for your skin.\\n2-2. Use liquid foundation as opposed to a powder foundation.\\nIf you are using powder foundation, this may be the cause of some of your makeup woes. Powder foundation is great for people with oily skin, because it helps to absorb excess oil and moisture on the skin. However, it you have dry skin as it is, using powder foundation will only leave your skin more dried out than before. The powder will cling to the dry areas of your face, making foundation look patchy, especially from up close.\\nBuy a liquid foundation at the drugstore or at makeup stores like Ulta or Sephora.\\nAlso make sure to use a cream concealer as opposed to a stick concealer.\\n2-3. Apply foundation.\\nPick an area of your face to start applying foundation. Dab a small amount of liquid foundation onto your finger, then tap the foundation onto your face. Use a foundation brush to blend the foundation into your skin. Repeat as desired for your whole face, except for your under eye area and your eyelids.\\nIf you have dry skin, you may notice that your skin is often flaky. Using a brush as opposed to your fingers to blend foundation minimizes flaking since brushes are gentler.\\nDo not press too hard with the brush. Instead, use a soft series of repetitive taps that blends in and spreads the foundation to the area you are working on.\\n2-4. Apply concealer.\\nUse a liquid or cream concealer on your undereye area, and any other area that you feel needs more coverage. Apply concealer like you applied the liquid foundation, using a series of small pats.Use a small brush that can reach all the areas of the under eye.\\n2-5. Use a setting spray.\\nUse setting spray, as opposed to powder, to set your makeup. Hold the spray about a foot from your face and give your face a gentle mist. Setting spray has a moisturizing effect, as opposed to setting powder which will absorb precious moisture.\\n3. Applying the Rest of Your Makeup\\n3-1. Apply your eye makeup.\\nWith your eyes already primed, apply your eye makeup as you usually do. You should notice that with the primer in place, it is easier to blend your eyeshadow, and your liner pencil should glide on more smoothly.\\nIf you notice that your eyelids are still dry, apply liquid liner as opposed to pencil liner.\\nYou also can use cream-based eyeshadows, though they are less easy to blend than powders.\\n3-2. Use liquid blush.\\nIf your cheeks and cheekbone areas are prone to dryness, making your blush go on patchily, try a liquid blush. Liquid blush not only goes on smoother, but it lasts longer and is more heat resistant during hot days. To use liquid blush, dab a dot of it on your cheekbones and spread with a blush brush in small pats.\\n3-3. Apply your lipstick.\\nBy the time you have put on your foundation, blush and eye makeup, your lips may be starting to feel dry again. Apply a thin coat of chapstick. Wait for a moment for it to sink in, and then apply your lipstick. Try to avoid matte lipsticks, or long-lasting lipsticks, as these have a drying effect.\\nIf do decide to use a matte lipstick that leaves your lips feeling dry, dab a bit of Vaseline or chapstick onto your finger, then pat this onto your lips. This will leave your lips feeling moisturized, and will counteract the drying effect of the lip product you are using.\\n3-4. Apply highlighter for a dewy look.\\nIf you are self-conscious about your skin appearing dry, use a liquid highlighter to give your skin a fresh, dewy look. Use a liquid highlighter, and dab a drop on the top of each cheekbone. Pat it in using your finger in a diagonal along the ridge of your cheekbone.\\nApplying highlighter won't actually make your skin less dry, but it will give you a fresh and healthy look.\\n3-5. Refresh your makeup throughout the day.\\nCheck up on your makeup every couple of hours. If you notice that your skin is flaking or dry patches have appeared, revitalize your skin. First take a pair of tweezers and tweeze off any flakes of dry skin. Then use a patting motion to apply a dot of moisturizer to each dry patch. Moisturizer will give your skin the moisture and nourishment that it needs, and it will make your makeup look less dry and cakey.\\nMake sure to not to use too much moisturizer, and to pat as opposed to rub the moisturizer in. Rubbing can remove your foundation and concealer.\\nTips\\nTake your time patting in your foundation and blush. You want to be sure that it is integrated into your skin, or else the makeup will stay on the surface of your skin and look uneven.\\nMake sure that you are applying your makeup in a well-lit environment. You need to make sure that your makeup looks flawless even in a brightly-lit space.\\nIf you still notice patchiness with your foundation, consider investing in a higher-quality foundation. Sometimes simply buying a better quality product can make all the difference.\\nWarnings\\nAlways be careful when applying makeup around the eye area. If you get makeup in your eye, flush your eye with cool water immediately.\\nMake sure to wash your makeup brushes and tools at least once a month.They can be carriers of germs and bacteria. Also try to sharpen eyeliner pencils after a couple uses.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"If you have dry skin, you know how difficult applying makeup can be. Makeup tends to cling to the dry areas of the face rather than getting absorbed by the skin, making it look patchy and badly-applied.

2,026 | How to Apply Makeup to Look More Masculine | 1. Applying the Basics
1-1. Apply a layer of beauty balm.
This will smooth out your skin and conceal some blemishes and discolorations. You should use balm over foundation. Foundation will make it obvious you're wearing makeup. Balm will smooth out your features, prepping your face for makeup, without making the fact you're wearing makeup obvious.
Use your index finger to dab dots of beauty balm around your face. Focus on areas in which your skin is uneven.
Use a fluff brush or your fingers to blend the balm into your skin. Use circular motions and keep blending until the foundation looks natural. You should not see any obvious lines or marks on your face.
1-2. Cover up blemishes with concealer.
Focus on areas prone to acne, like the chin and forehead, as well as under your eyes. You can use your fingers to apply concealer. You can also use the wand that came with the package.
As with the foundation, work the concealer into your skin with circular motions. You can use your fingers, a brush, or a makeup sponge.
Keep blending until the concealer looks natural. It should blend into your foundation and skin tone. There should not be any lines on your face.
1-3. Use a powder to reduce shine.
After applying foundation and concealer, your makeup will not appear that different than feminine makeup. You should take steps to reduce the shiny appearance left by foundation and cover up. Makeup powder should be dabbed across your face to dull the appearance of your foundational makeup.
Choose a powder foundation that matches your natural skin tone. Dab the foundation over your face using a large brush.
Target the areas on your face that are the shiniest. Your cheeks and cheekbones, for example, may be shiny after applying cream foundation and cover up.
1-4. Contour around your face.
Men tend to have more angular features. You can create this affect by using a darker shade of highlighter or foundation to create the illusion of shadows around your cheekbones, jaw, and forehead. Use a small contouring brush to apply the makeup.
Start with your cheekbones. Suck in your cheeks and draw a dark line running down your cheekbones. Draw another line tracing your chin and lower jawline. This will create a sharper, more masculine facial structure.
Draw a slight l-shape on both your temples. Then, on your forehead, shade a triangular shape on both sides of the forehead. Draw the triangle just above the arch of each eyebrow.
Use a light powder to blend the contour shades throughout your face. It should not be obvious you're wearing makeup. Use a large brush and circular motions to blend.
Aim for sharper lines without making the contouring harsher.
1-5. Shade around your nose to make it look bigger.
Men tend to have larger and more defined noses. Using a dark foundation or highlighter, you can shade around your nose to make it more prominent. Use a large brush to apply.
Shade both sides of the nose. This will also darken the area. Men tend not to wear foundation, so areas of the face usually look darker. Make sure to shade under the tip of your nose, as well as the sides of each nostril.
Shade the area where your nose meets your brow bone. This create the appearance of a shadow under the eyebrow. This is important, as men tend to have more prominent fore brows.
2. Refining Your Eyes
2-1. Use makeup to make your eyes smaller.
Men tend to have eyes that are smaller in appearance. Therefore, you want to make your eyes look smaller with the use of makeup. To do so, use a concealer lighter than your skin tone under your eyes.
Use your fingers to apply the concealer right under your eyes. Apply in an arch that follows along your lower eyelid.
Keep working the concealer in until it blends naturally with your skin. When you're done, your eyes should look slightly smaller.
2-2. Treat your eyebrows.
Getting the eyebrows right is the most important part of creating a masculine look using makeup.Male eyebrows tend to be bushier than female eyebrows. They also tend to lack shape. While female eyebrows are arched slightly, male eyebrows may be thicker and more furrowed. You can use makeup to fill in gaps in your eyebrows and shape them in a more masculine style.
Use an eyebrow powder that matches your natural brow color. Use a small brush to start applying the makeup. Start applying powder at the end of your eyebrow nearest your nose.
Fill in any gaps in your eyebrow hair to make them look thicker. As you work your way across your eyebrows, apply the makeup in a straight line. Work against the natural curve of your brow. Blend the makeup in a way that makes your eyebrow appear straighter.
2-3. Use a subtle eyeliner.
You can enhance your eyes a bit with eyeliner. This will call attention to your masculine looking eyes and brows. However, use a subtle shade. A dark, noticeable shade may look more feminine.
Apply the eyeliner right at your lash line. Go for a brown or chocolate brown shade.
Select a powder-based liner. This will be less noticeable than other liners, while also defining your eyes.
3. Enhancing Facial Hair
3-1. Choose an eyebrow powder that matches your facial hair.
You can use eyebrow powder on your existing facial hair to make it look thicker and scruffier. Stop by a local drugstore or makeup store. Look for an eyebrow powder that matches the color of your natural facial hair.
You may have to experiment with several different types of eyebrow powder before finding one that looks natural on you.
3-2. Apply the powder over your existing facial hair.
Use a small angled brush. Dip it into the eyebrow powder. Then, apply the powder over your existing facial hair.
Use circular motions to dust the powder over your facial hair. Give particular attention to areas where there are gaps in facial hair.
Keep in mind, this will not work as well if your facial hair is just growing in. You want to wait until your stubble is fairly noticeable before attempting this.
3-3. Make sure to blend out the makeup.
Otherwise, your makeup will look unnatural. Blend the makeup into your neck and cheeks so the color fades gradually. A dramatic change in color or texture will make it obvious you're wearing makeup.
Tips
It may take several tries before your makeup looks natural. Do not get discouraged. It takes practice to apply makeup properly.

2,027 | How to Apply Makeup to Small Eyes | 1. Priming the Area
1-1. Pluck and shape your eyebrows.
Eyebrows help to define the shape of your eyes. Pluck your eyebrows to neaten them and, if you like, shape them by adding a gentle arch. Neat and well-shaped eyebrows open up the eye area, making them look larger.
Pluck from below your eyebrows, not from above. This will help open your eyes up and make them appear larger.
1-2. Splash cold water on puffy eyes.
Puffy eyes due to allergies, a fitful night of sleep or lack of sleep in general are very common. Unfortunately, puffy eyes make them look even smaller. Before you get started with makeup, splash your eye area gently with cold water, then pat dry. This can decrease puffiness.
You can also create a cold compress by filling a zip-lock baggie with ice and wrapping it inside a wash cloth. Apply the compress to your eye area for 10-15 minutes.
1-3. Apply eye makeup primer.
Primer helps your makeup last as long as possible by giving it something to stick to. Pat a thin layer of the primer onto your lids, working your way up to the eyebrow. If you plan to apply eyeshadow beneath your eyes (for instance, if you want to create a smoky eye look), apply primer there, as well.
If you don’t have any primer, use a thin layer of concealer instead. Follow it up with a dusting of translucent powder. This is an effective primer.
1-4. Use concealer on dark circles under your eyes.
Dark circles under the eyes can make them look smaller than they are. Select a concealer that’s one to two shades lighter than your skin tone. Apply it beneath your eyes in the shape of an upside down triangle. Use your fingers or a sponge to gently blend the concealer into your skin.
2. Applying Eyeshadow
2-1. Apply a shimmery light-colored eyeshadow to the inner corners.
Use an eyeshadow brush to lightly apply a small amount of light-colored shimmery (not glittery) eyeshadow to the inner corners of both eyes. Use a white, nude or silver shimmer shadow for this. It only takes a small amount, so use a light touch.
By using a lighter shade on the inner half of your eyes, you'll make them look more open and farther apart, which can make them seem larger.
2-2. Apply the same shimmery shade to the outer corners and brow bone.
Use an eyeshadow brush to apply the light shimmery shadow on the outer corner of each eyelid. Then apply some to the area directly beneath your eyebrows. This trick enhances the eye-opening effect.
2-3. Use a nude or beige eyeshadow on your lids.
Lighter colors open up the eye area, whereas dark colors tend to make things recede and appear smaller. Brush on a nude or beige shadow with a bit of shimmer to it on both eyelids. You can also use the same color you used on the inner and outer corners, if you prefer.
2-4. Use multiple colors to create dimension.
If you want to experiment with color and dimension, try using two colors that complement each other. For instance, you could apply a light-colored eyeshadow your lids, then line both eyes with an electric blue eyeliner. Together they make the eyes pop and create depth and dimension.
3. Using Eyeliner
3-1. Apply nude or white eyeliner to the bottom waterline.
It’s common to line the bottom waterline with a dark pencil, but this unfortunately makes the eyes look smaller. Instead, use a nude or pale eyeliner pencil on your bottom waterline. Apply it from the inner corner of your eye all the way to the outer corner.
This will help make the whites of your eyes look like they're extended, giving you a doll-like appearance.
To enhance this further, apply a small amount of the liner directly below your waterline and smudge it with your finger to blend it out.
3-2. Tightline your upper water line.
Use your finger to pull your eyelid up so the water line under your eyelashes is exposed. Then, line the outer two-thirds of your water line with black eyeliner. This will make your lashes look fuller while also opening your eyes up.
3-3. Choose a shade that brings out the color of your eyes.
Use a light-colored eyeliner. Dark eyeliners can make your eyes appear smaller. If you do use a dark eyeliner, only apply it to the outer third of your eye. Do some experimenting, but try using a light brown for blue eyes, light purple for green eyes, light blue for brown eyes, and light pinkish-purple shades for hazel eyes.
3-4. Line the outer third of your eyes only.
Don’t line the entire lid, since this can make eyes look smaller. To open them up, line only the outer third of your eyes, and then blend the eyeliner. The starting place usually lines up directly above the pupil, but adjust for your needs (since eye shapes vary). Draw a soft line from there to the outer edge of the eye, then flick it out slightly at the end.
Line the outer third of your bottom lid, as well. To make the look more subtle, blend the liner or with a clean brush, cotton swab, or your finger.
4. Applying Mascara
4-1. Curl your lashes before applying mascara.
Use an eyelash curler on each set of lashes, clamping down for about 10 seconds per eye. Now your lashes are lifted and more visible, which creates the illusion of larger eyes. Only curl the upper lashes, not the bottom lashes.
4-2. Apply two coats of mascara to the upper lashes.
Situate the mascara wand at the base of your eyelashes, then wiggle it side to side as you move up along your lashes to the tips. Wait for the first coat to dry before adding the second coat in the exact same way. Always wait for the first coat to dry first to prevent clumpy looking lashes.
4-3. Apply one coat of mascara to the bottom lashes.
When applying mascara to your bottom lashes, less is more! Turn the mascara wand to a vertical position and carefully run along your bottom lashes with it. A second coat is not recommended, because it will make clumps way more likely to happen.
4-4. Try false eyelashes.
False lashes require extra effort to apply and some people are allergic to the glue, so proceed with caution. If you decide falsies are for you, they can really make your eyes pop! They frame the eyes and draw attention to their shape while also opening them up and making them look a lot larger.

2,028 | How to Apply Makeup to a Round Face | 1. Steps
1-1. Start with a flawless base.
If you have oily skin, use a primer to help your makeup last throughout the day. Whether it's foundation, powder or just some concealer, use something that gives the overall look of a good complexion.
A beauty blender is a good tool to use if you want to have flawless base as it will make sure your foundation does not have a caked-on appearance. Use less and build up your coverage if needed. Do not apply lots, as it may look caked-on.
A powder foundation or mineral makeup will give a much lighter coverage while still appearing flawless.
1-2. Powder your face if you have used liquid foundation or concealer.
Even if you have dry skin, this is a crucial step, as you do not want your makeup to move throughout the day.
If you are dry skinned, then use powder lightly or in some places.
If you're oily skinned, then it is recommended to use all over your face.
Do not powder too much as it may turn cake-like.
Do not buff or rub as this may disturb and move the makeup. Lightly bounce on the skin and once applied all over, then buff into the skin.
1-3. Add bronzer.
This will add definition and colour to your face. Apply to the edges of the forehead, cheeks and jawline. Use a big fluffy brush to avoid being too precise.
1-4. Contour.
This is where the most definition will occur, making your face seem more structured and less round. This will give the impression of a precise cheekbone and jawline. Apply with an angled thin brush and apply to your natural indentation. Blend up for a more natural look, as blending downwards will make your face look sunken in.
1-5. Use a matte or shimmery blush.
Using a shimmery one will bring attention to this area and make your cheekbones more prominent. Apply right above the contour.
1-6. Apply a highlight to the tops of your cheekbones.
Place it above the blush, which should be on the apples of your cheeks and the highlight should be above it. Use a pink one for lighter skin tones and a golden ones for deeper skin tones.
1-7. Apply eye makeup to your eyes.
Colours to make blue eyes stand out are golds and copper and for brown eyes purples will make them pop. Apply eyeliner if desired and whichever mascara you prefer.
Shape your eyebrows so they're more arched or angular to help add shape.
1-8. Apply your favourite lipstick to your lips to complete your perfect look!
Tips
Make sure your foundation matches your skin as well as is suitable for your skin type. Remember to blend slightly onto your neck to avoid foundation lines.
Find a bronzer that is not too grey or too orange for your skin to make it look natural.
Make sure to use a matte bronzer for contouring but for bronzer it can be matte or slightly shimmery.

2,029 | How to Apply Mascara | 1. Choosing your Mascara
1-1. Decide what you want out of your mascara.
There is a mascara for just about any kind of lash enhancement--volumizing, lengthening, defining, faster growth, waterproof--plus many products that combine these effects. Take a look at your lashes and decide what sort of enhancement they need.
For sparse lashes, look for a thickening or volumizing mascara with a large, round brush with lots of bristles. You can also find a combination primer and mascara formula, which is perfect for bulking up lashes and keeping them healthy.
If you have short lashes, look for a lengthening mascara with a smaller brush with thick bristles. A small wand will allow you to get very close to your eye and make sure you coat each lash.
If your lashes are full but you want length and definition, choose a lengthening mascara, but one with a long brush with evenly-spaced bristles to separate your lashes.
If your lashes are uneven in length or damaged, check the ingredients on the mascara. Phyto-keratin and panthenol can help your lashes grow. Use a fatter brush on your lashes.
You should only use mascara for three months before replacing it, so go ahead and experiment with different brands and formulas until you find your perfect mascara.
Use waterproof mascara only for special events, like if you’re going to a pool party or a movie that might make you cry. It’s difficult to remove and can dry out your lashes, making them brittle.
1-2. Pick your shade.
For the most part, black is the way to go. It gives the illusion of thickness and length and can really make your eyes pop. If your lashes are red or blonde, however, make brown your go-to shade, wearing light brown for everyday and a dark brown to amp up the drama.
Experiment with colored mascaras. Green can bring out violet in blue eyes, purple can enhance green eyes, and blue and purple can brighten your complexion.
1-3. Invest in an eyelash curler, while you're at it.
If you're serious about getting knock-out lashes, an eyelash curler is key. This will lift your lashes and allow more light to hit your eyes so they look bigger and brighter. It may not seem like it, but an eyelash curler can make a huge difference.
Look for a curler with a rounded rubber pad, which will help curl your lash instead of bend it at a sharp angle.
2. Applying Mascara to Upper Lashes
2-1. Apply any other eye makeup first.
If you’re planning to wear eyeshadow, eyeliner, or any other eye makeup, brush it on before you do your mascara. This will ensure that you don’t smudge any of your mascara by trying to put other products on around it.
Other non-eye makeup, such as foundation or blush, can be applied at any time. Most people choose to apply full-face makeup first, then finish with eye makeup.
2-2. Curl your lashes first.
Position the curler as close to the base of your lashes as possible without pinching your skin. Close the curlers and gently squeeze for about 10 seconds. Then, release the curler.If you don't have a curler or you're too afraid to use one, use your fingertips to push up and curl wet lashes.
2-3. Remove the wand from the mascara tube by twisting back and forth instead of pumping it up and down.
Twisting will allow the brush to pick up the mascara, which is what most people think they are doing when they pump the brush in the tube. What they are actually doing is forcing air into the tube, which dries out the mascara.
2-4. Wipe off excess mascara on a tissue or on the lip of the tube.
Too much product can lead to clumping. Giving the wand a little wipe will leave you with just the right amount.
2-5. Look up to lift your lashes.
You should still be able to see yourself in the mirror out of your peripheral vision.
If you are afraid you are going to blink when you approach your lashes with the wand, open your mouth. It's harder to blink when your mouth is wide open.
2-6. Place the wand against the base of your lashes and wiggle it back and forth a little.
You want the most product to be applied to the roots, which will make your lashes look longer and keep them from getting weighed down on the tips.
The wiggle will also help lift and curl your lashes.
2-7. Pull the wand out toward the tips of your lashes with a zig-zag motion, or another little wiggle.
The zig-zag adds length and volume, and can reduce clumping.
2-8. Go over your lashes with a second coat.
Try to leave it at that--do a third coat at the most. The more you layer on the mascara, the more likely it is the mascara will dry on your lashes and cause the new coat to clump.
Mix mascaras to combine their specialties. For example, you could use lengthening mascara for one layer, then add a layer of thickening mascara on top. Try this at home before you wear it out, as some mascaras might not blend well and cause clump.
2-9. Don't neglect the lashes on the inner and outer part of your eyelid.
A lot of times, people apply mascara only to the very center of their eyelid, which can actually make your eyes look narrower. Make sure you apply to the inner, middle, and outer lashes.
If you are having trouble reaching your inner lashes with your brush, you can very carefully bend the brush to a 45 degree angle (don't worry, you can bend it back). This will make it easy to brush those inner lashes without getting mascara all over your face.
You can also apply the mascara to the back side of the lashes for an easier application.
3. Applying Mascara to Lower Lashes
3-1. Take a spoon, a kleenex or the thin wedge of a makeup sponge and hold it underneath your lower eyelashes.
This will allow you to apply mascara without getting it all over your skin.
3-2. Put mascara only on the roots of the lower lashes.
Brushing on mascara on the full length of your lower lashes, from the roots to the tips, creates an unnatural, spidery effect. Instead, apply your mascara at the roots of the lashes and lift up and away as you get closer to the tips. If you apply too much, simply brush or pull it off of the tips with your fingers.
3-3. Use the very tip of the brush to apply mascara to your lower lashes.
If you have a very small wand, you'll want to use that. It will be easier to control the application and get close to your eye.
If you have brown mascara, consider using that on your lower lashes, even if you used black on your upper lashes. It's not quite as heavy as black and can add some dimension to your look.
4. Addressing Common Problems
4-1. Remove any mistakes with a cotton swab.
If you get mascara on your face or eyelid, allow it to dry so you don't smear it and make things worse. Once dry, put a bit of moisturizer on a cotton swab and press it to the mascara spot. Spin it gently in place. This should remove the spot without messing up your eyeshadow.
4-2. De-clump with a clean mascara wand.
Either use a disposable wand or repurpose an old one (wash it thoroughly with soap and water first). Comb through the top and bottom of the lash, spinning the brush as you sweep forward. This should remove clumps and give your lashes definition.
Try to comb through your lashes while the mascara is still wet.
If you don't have an extra wand on hand, try using a clean toothbrush to comb out any clumps.
4-3. Thicken your lashes even further with baby powder.
If you don't feel like you're getting the thick, voluminous lashes you want, try this trick. Apply one coat of mascara , then dust your lashes with translucent powder or baby powder (you can use a makeup brush or a cotton swab dipped in powder). Then add another coat of mascara.
The powder gives the mascara more to cling to, which allows you to build more volume.
4-4. Remove your mascara every night with an eye makeup remover.
It might not seem like a big deal, but it can dry out your lashes at night and cause them to become brittle and fall out.

2,030 | How to Apply Matte Liquid Lipstick | 1. Prepping Your Lips
1-1. Exfoliate your lips.
It’s essential to start with smooth lips when you plan to wear a matte lipstick. You can buy a lip scrub, make your own, or simply use a washcloth or toothbrush to slough off dry or dead skin. Pat your lips dry with a towel when you’re done.
For a homemade lip scrub, mix together 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of honey and 1 tablespoon (12.5 g) of brown sugar in a small bowl. You can also add 1 drop of vanilla extract for flavor and a nice scent. Use clean fingers to scrub the mixture over your lips. Rinse it away with warm water.
1-2. Apply a moisturizing balm.
Matte liquid lipstick stays on all day, which means it can be drying. Moisturize your lips before applying the lipstick to ensure they stay soft and smooth. Choose a lip balm that isn’t greasy or oily, such as 1 that is wax-based, and thinly coat your lips with it. You can blot your lips with a tissue after applying the balm, if desired.
Both your favorite lip balm or some saline petroleum jelly would work.
1-3. Put on lip primer.
A lip primer ensures your lipstick will stay in place and not bleed or melt during the day. Simply swipe your favorite lip primer over your lips, much as you did with the balm. It may become tacky after a minute or 2, which helps the liquid lipstick adhere to it.
1-4. Line your lips, then fill them in.
Lip liner is used to define the shape of your lips. Choose a liner that is the same shade or slightly lighter than your lipstick. Start at the center of your top lip, called the Cupid’s bow, and outline each side. Then, outline your bottom lip and use the liner to completely fill in your lips.
If you want an extra playful pout, you can make your lips “overdrawn,” which means making them look a little bigger by drawing the lip liner just outside your natural lip line. Be careful not to overdo it, though!
2. Adding Lipstick
2-1. Use short strokes to apply 1 coat of liquid lipstick.
Wipe excess lipstick off the applicator on the side of the tube opening or on a paper towel. Begin applying the lipstick at your Cupid’s bow and work your way out toward the edges of your top lip. Then, move to your bottom lip and, again, work from the center out. Short strokes will help you achieve a more even color.
Be careful to avoid getting any excess product on your skin, as it may stain.
You should apply the matte liquid lipstick quickly after moisturizing your lips, because otherwise they can dry very quickly.
2-2. Avoid rubbing your lips together.
Though it may be instinctive to rub your lips together to blend your lipstick, do your best to avoid the temptation. Matte liquid lipstick is similar to paint, so rubbing your lips together can lead to smeared, uneven color. You could use your finger tip to blend uneven areas, if desired, but it’s best to just let the lipstick dry on its own.
2-3. Apply a second coat, if desired.
Usually, 1 coat of matte liquid lipstick will be enough. If you think it’s too transparent, though, you can add a second coat. Do this immediately after the first coat, or you risk messing up the drying process. Apply a second coat in the same manner as the first.
2-4. Blot your lips for an extra-matte finish.
If you want a less opaque finish or love a super matte look, you can blot your lips immediately after applying the lipstick. Open your mouth and hold a tissue between your lips, then lightly press them together onto the tissue. Discard the tissue when you’re done.
2-5. Fix mistakes with cold cream or concealer.
If you try to rub the lipstick off of the outside of your mouth, you’ll end up with a smeared mess! Instead, dip a precision-tip cotton swab in cold cream and use it to clean off the mistakes. Alternatively, dab a little concealer around your mouth and blend it in with your fingers or a clean makeup sponge.
Tips
Apply a small dab of highlighter to the center of your bottom lip for an extra-glam look.[14]

Swipe a small amount of milk of magnesia on your inner wrist and wait 30 minutes. If your skin appears red or feels irritated, then do not use milk of magnesia on your face.

2,032 | How to Apply Medication to a Turtle's Eyes | 1. Preparing to Apply Medicine to Your Turtle
1-1. Gather supplies and pick a spot.
The first step in applying medicine to your turtle’s eye is to gather all of the supplies you need in an appropriate area. This way, you’ll have everything you need and won’t need to scramble once you’ve got your turtle out of its aquarium. Consider:
Picking a spot on the floor, so that turtle-dropping danger is minimized.
Lay out a clean towel to absorb any medicine or turtle droppings.
Place your turtle eye medicine on the towel.
Place some turtle treats or food on the towel to distract your reptilian friend.
1-2. Remove the turtle from its tank.
Before you apply medicine to your turtle’s eye, you need to remove it from the aquarium. When removing your turtle, move slowly and do not frighten it. This is important and you’ll want to do everything you can to avoid scaring your little friend. When you go to remove your turtle:
Sit quietly next to the enclosure for a couple minutes before going to take it out.
Pick the turtle up with both hands placing one on each side between the front and back legs.
Hold your friend firmly but don’t hurt it.
Place the turtle down gently.
1-3. Get your turtle to stick its head out.
One of the biggest challenges of applying medicine to your turtle is getting it to cooperate. Since turtles can just retract their heads into their shell, this could be a problem.
Try to tease your turtle out of its shell with food.
Wait until your turtle’s head is completely out of the shell and he or she is eating.
If your turtle is not cooperating at all, put it down and try again in half an hour.
Be very gentle and do not hurt your little friend. Remember, that he or she does not really know that you’re trying to help. Be very considerate.
1-4. Position your turtle.
Next, you’ll have to take some steps to position your turtle and make sure that he or she does not retract its head back into its shell. This way, you’ll be able apply medicine to the turtle’s eyes easily. Make sure to:
Take your other hand and with your palm under the turtle's plastron, place your index finger and thumb on either side and behind the turtle's head.
Do not grab its neck vertebrae, but do keep your fingers firmly planted as the turtle will be violently pulling its neck in.
Hold the turtle like this until it stops struggling, and only tries to pull its neck in.
Again, be very gentle with your turtle. If you are not comfortable doing this, find someone who is or contact a vet.
2. Applying Medication
2-1. Apply the ointment or drops.
Since you’ll be busy holding your friend in position and making sure he or she doesn’t retract its head, you’ll need to have someone else apply the ointment or drops to your little friend.
If you don't have a helper, slowly place your turtle firmly on the ground and remove the hand that was touching the plastron. Use this hand to apply medicine.
Remove pus or other discharge with a q-tip.
Apply ointment onto eyes or fill your eye dropper with eye drops.
If you’re using eye drops, drop the appropriate amount of drops (as prescribed) into the turtle’s infected eye or eyes.
2-2. Repeat application of ointment or drops.
Now that you’ve applied drops or ointment to your turtle, you’ve got to repeat application of the ointment or drops. This should get easier for both you and your turtle. You’ll both get used to it, and your turtle will probably cooperate more-and-more. Make sure to:
Follow your doctor’s directions.
Often times, antibiotic ointment or drops need to be applied 3 times a day and for 7-10 days or as directed.
If your turtle does not begin to recover after a few days, contact your vet.
2-3. Place your turtle back into its aquarium or enclosure.
Now that you’ve applied medicated cream or drops to your turtle, you have to place it back into the enclosure. Make sure to:
Gently place the turtle back in its enclosure
Avoid creating any disturbances in the room.
Check back on your turtle in an hour or two.
3. Troubleshooting Turtle Eye and Health Problems
3-1. Identify problems.
Healthy turtle eyes should be clear, open, and shiny. If you have a turtle whose eyes are not healthy, you should contact your vet immediately. This is extremely important as eye infections can be indicative of larger health problems. In addition, since turtles depend on their sight to find food, if they can’t see, they’ll have problems eating. Watch for eyes that are:
Swollen.
Half shut.
Reddened.
Sunken.
Produce pus or discharge.
3-2. Clean your turtle’s aquarium.
A very important part of treating your turtle is making sure its aquarium is clean. Making sure you have a clean aquarium will aid in the healing process and help avoid further infections. Ultimately, the cleaner the environment, the less chance there is for bacteria to accumulate.
Remove your turtle and put it in a temporary home.
Remove all water, rocks, plants, and everything else.
Clean the aquarium (if glass) with very hot water.
Scrub the sides with a brush or something slightly abrasive. Be careful not to scratch the glass.
If you use a cleaner, make sure that your tank is rinsed thoroughly so that no chemicals are left.
Properly clean all fake plants, rocks, and anything else that goes in the tank.
3-3. Maintain proper nutrition.
A major cause of eye infections in turtle is vitamin A deficiency. As a result, make sure that your turtle has proper nutrition and has proper levels of vitamin A. In addition, proper vitamins and nutrition will help keep your turtle healthy overall and minimize infections, including eye infections.
Feed your turtle specially formulated food pellets. These will have all of the vitamins your turtle needs.
Avoid feeding your turtle a diet made up mostly of either iceberg lettuce, all meat, or cheap commercial food.
Make sure you don’t give your turtle too much vitamin A. An overdose might kill your turtle.
Contact your vet if you have questions about proper nutrition and health.
Tips
Make sure the turtle tank has plenty of heat and light, as it will speed healing.
Wash your hands before and after.
Do not let pets into the room while doing this procedure.
Warnings
Keep your fingers away from the turtle's mouth as they can bite you in this position only if given the chance.
The turtle may urinate on you, however this is not harmful. Simply wash it off when you are done.
Turtles have long, sharp claws, and may scratch you if you are not careful. If this occurs, wash the scratch out with antibacterial soap immediately following the procedure.

2,033 | How to Apply Micropore Tape | 1. Application
1-1. Wash your skin with a mild soap and pat it dry.
Clean the area where you’ll be applying the tape so that it sticks to your skin well. Use a mild soap to wash your skin and pat the area dry with a clean towel.
If you’re using the tape to hold a bandage in place, listen to your doctor’s instructions about cleaning the wound.
It’s important to wipe off any lotions or oils so that the adhesive will stick to your skin.
1-2. Cut a length of tape that covers your bandage completely, if applicable.
If you have a wound that has a dressing over it, apply the tape so that it extends beyond just the dressing and onto your skin. Cut and apply the tape so that there’s at least 0.5–1 in (1.3–2.5 cm) of taped edge on your skin.
1-3. Stick the tape to your skin evenly without pulling it.
It’s important to avoid pulling or stretching out the tape as you place it on your skin, otherwise it’ll cause tension. Press it down evenly starting at one end and working your way to the other end of the cut tape without tugging on it.
Pulling the tape wider as you apply it to your skin might cause the area to feel a little irritated or painful.
1-4. Rub it firmly into place by applying slight pressure.
If you just set the tape down on your skin without rubbing it in, the tape won’t adhere well to the different curves of the area on your body. Press the tape down firmly and gently rub it into your skin using circular motions so it sticks well.
1-5. Avoid wrapping tape entirely around a limb.
Putting a piece of tape around your arm, leg, or other body part too tightly can cause circulation problems. Instead of wrapping the tape in a full circle, keep it in sections for your own safety.
Even if you wrap the tape in a circle around your limb and it doesn’t feel tight, that area may swell and cut off your circulation.
1-6. Loosen the tape if the area it’s covering starts to swell.
If the area of your body where you applied the tape is starting to swell from an injury or the tape being too tight, carefully remove the tape. Reapply it a bit looser so your circulation isn’t affected.
1-7. Ask your doctor how long to leave the tape in place.
Depending on why you’re using the tape, you may need to leave it on for several weeks. For example, a surgeon may recommend keeping Micropore tape over your incision(s) for up to 6 weeks after an operation to promote faster healing and minimize scarring. They will also give you advice about how often to remove and replace the tape (e.g., once a week until the wounds heal).
Some healthcare professionals recommend removing Micropore tape before you shower or bathe, then replacing it again when you’re done. Ask your doctor if you can safely wash the taped area and if they recommend taking the tape off before you do so.
2. Removal
2-1. Start at an edge of the tape and loosen it slightly.
Find an edge of the tape that’s easy to get under and pull this edge up slightly. Starting at an edge of the tape will give you more leverage and ensure it isn’t painful to take off.
2-2. Lift the tape slowly in the direction that your hair is growing.
Taking the tape off in the same direction of your hair growth will help ensure it doesn’t pull or cause pain. Lift the tape slowly and carefully, starting at the edge and working your way to the other side.
Avoid ripping the tape off quickly so you don’t irritate your skin.
2-3. Keep the tape low as you remove it to reduce irritation.
If you lift the end of the tape that you’ve already removed high into the air as you pull, your skin will be tugged more heavily. Instead, keep the tape close to your skin as you pull it off and use your fingers to steady your skin if needed.
Pull the tape back over itself once each section is removed to help keep it close to your skin, but not touching anymore.
2-4. Use a medical grade adhesive remover if you’re having trouble.
Micropore tape is known for being easy to remove, so this shouldn’t be a problem. If you are having trouble getting the tape off or it’s painful to remove, purchase an adhesive remover and dab this on to the area to help the tape come loose.
Sometimes applying a moisturizer can help loosen the tape too.
Tips
Once you've cut the tape, try not to touch the sticky side to make sure the adhesive works well.
Warnings
Micropore tape isn't waterproof, so avoid showering, heavily exercising, or going underwater with it on.

2,034 | How to Apply Milky Spore | 1. Spreading the Powder
1-1. Apply Milky Spore in the early fall for the best results.
This is when the grubs will be feeding the most so that they’ll be fatter for the winter, and the soil will still be warm. If you can’t apply the powder in the early fall, aim for applying it during the summer.
Apply the powder anytime during the year, as long as the soil is at least 65 °F (18 °C).
To check the temperature of the soil, stick a metal thermometer roughly 3 inches (7.6 cm) deep into the soil.
If the soil is below 65 °F (18 °C), the grubs won’t be feeding and the powder won’t be ingested.
The soil doesn't need to be damp or wet for you to apply the Milky Spore.
1-2. Pour the Milky Spore powder into a lawn and garden dispenser.
These work best for distributing the powder — if you use a regular spreader, it’s likely that the powder will blow away once it’s been dispensed. Pour the powder into the lawn and garden dispenser, which looks like a long tube.
A 10 oz (280 g) container treats 2,500 square feet (760 sq m), while a 40 oz (1,100 g) box treats 10,000 square feet (3,000 sq m).
This dispenser is designed so that when you tap it on the ground, it dispenses the powder.
1-3. Create your own dispenser using a coffee can, if necessary.
If you don’t want to purchase a dispenser just for applying the Milky Spore powder, create one using an old coffee can and a 4 ft (120 cm) long stick. Punch 15 holes in the bottom of the coffee can using a nail, and attach the coffee can to the stick using duct tape.
A 1 pound (0.45 kg) coffee can works best.
Fill the can just as you would the lawn and garden dispenser.
The nail holes should be big enough for the Milky Spore to pass through, but they don't need to be huge—a medium-sized nail should work.
1-4. Apply the powder every 4 feet (1.2 m) in a grid formation.
Walk around your yard in straight lines, tapping the ground every 4 feet (1.2 m) with your dispenser or can to release the powder. Do this in rows that are 4 feet (1.2 m) apart so that you create a grid of powder on your yard.
Dispense about 1 teaspoon (4.9 ml) teaspoon of powder every 4 feet (1.2 m).
Don’t worry about the areas that went untreated in the grid — the spores will spread naturally throughout the entire area.
1-5. Water the ground lightly so that the powder absorbs into the soil.
Try to water the soil immediately after you apply Milky Spore, but at least within 24 hours. Apply it right before it’s about to rain and let the rain help the powder soak into the soil, or lightly water the soil yourself.
If you’re watering the ground yourself, use a spray hose with a softer spray setting— you don’t want to spray the ground so intensely that the powder washes away.
If you're applying it before rain, make sure the rain is going to be light as opposed to a heavy storm that will wash the Milky Spore away.
1-6. Observe the changes over the next few months to years.
Milky Spore doesn’t work immediately — the grubs have to ingest the spores and then the spores will multiply, meaning it can take several months for them to die. It could take a couple of years for your entire yard to be free of grubs.
Once it has been treated, the Milky Spore should work for at least 10 years without another treatment.
Since it takes several years for the grubs to completely die, be patient and know that the Milky Spore is working slowly.
2. Checking for Signs of Grub Damage
2-1. Look for sections of your lawn that are yellow or brown.
If your grass starts turning yellow, and then brown, it’s likely that it’s infected with grubs. If sections of your grass are completely dead, Milky Spore will likely help.
This often happens in the late summer.
2-2. Try to pull up pieces of your grass.
The grubs like to eat the grass roots, causing your lawn to turn yellow and brown. If you can easily pull up chunks of grass in areas you think are infected, this is a sign that the grubs are in the soil.
2-3. Cut up a section of the lawn to spot the grubs.
Use a flat spade to cut off the top section of an infected area of grass. If you roll it back, the grubs should be visible. They’re white larvae and are often curled up in a C-shape.
The grubs range in size, but average about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in length.
Tips
Milky Spore won't harm other wildlife and is safe to use around pets, children, and adults.
If you get Milky Spore on your body, or in your eyes or mouth, simply rinse the infected area with clean water.
Warnings
Don't mix the powder with water before applying.
Don't mow your lawn until the spores have been absorbed into the ground with water.
Avoid using other grub killers or the Milky Spore won't have anything to infect.

2,035 | How to Apply Mineral Foundation | 1. Preparing Your Skin for Mineral Foundation
1-1. Cleanse your face.
When you apply makeup, you should always start with clean hands and a fresh canvas. Wash your hands with soap and warm water. Cleanse your face with your regular face wash. Pat your face dry with a clean towel. Before you move on to the next step, allow your skin to rest for 2 to 3 minutes.
If you don’t have sensitive skin, consider using a gentle exfoliator.
1-2. Moisturize your face.
Mineral makeup will not adhere, or bond, to dry skin. Applying moisturizer to your face will help your makeup stick to your face and last throughout the day. Wash and dry your hands. Use your clean fingers to apply moisturizer to your face a neck. Let the product settle into your skin for ten minutes.
If you have oily skin, consider applying a mineral-based makeup primer in addition to your moisturizer.
1-3. Apply a mineral concealer to dark spots and blemishes.
Concealer provides additional coverage for dark spots, red patches, and blemishes. To apply this product, use a concealer brush. Move the brush over the area you wish to cover in the feathery strokes. Apply several light layers of concealer to the area.
Apply a green mineral concealer to red patches of skin.
Apply a yellow mineral concealer to mask dark circles.
Apply a concealer matches your skin tone to blemishes.
This product should be applied before you put on mineral foundation.
2. Applying Mineral Foundation
2-1. Load up the kabuki brush with mineral foundation.
Mineral foundation is traditionally applied with a kabuki brush. This large makeup brush is designed to buff on the mineral makeup in large, circular motions and its short bristles provide fuller coverage. The brush also holds a lot of powder.
Pour, or tap, a small amount of mineral powder into the lid of the jar. You will need less powder than you expect—a little goes a long way.
Swirl your kabuki brush inside of the lid until it takes up all of the mineral powder.
Tap the brush on the side of the lid to remove any excess powder.
2-2. Buff the mineral foundation onto your skin.
Mineral foundation is applied to the face in a light, circular motion. This method of application ensures even, full coverage. Begin by framing your face with the mineral makeup. Gradually fill in the remaining areas—don’t forget to apply the mineral foundation to your ears, eyelids, neck, and underneath your chin.
2-3. Continue to build up the coverage in light layers.
Mineral foundation should be gradually built up in thin layers. This will create a natural look.
Reload your kabuki brush with more mineral powder.
Apply the product to your face and neck with large circular brushstrokes.
Repeat if needed.
3. Applying Mineral Blush or Bronzer, Eyeshadow, and Finishing Veil
3-1. Add color to your cheeks with a mineral blush and/or bronzer.
After you’ve applied the mineral foundation, you can add a flush of color to your cheeks with a mineral blush. If you prefer a sun-kissed look, apply a mineral bronzer to your face.
Tap a very small amount of blush or bronzer into the lid—use much less powder than you think you may need.
Swirl your powder brush inside the cap until all of the blush or bronzer is gone.
Tap the brush on the side of the lid.
Apply a small amount of blush to the apples of your cheeks and brush back towards your hairline.
Apply a small amount of bronzer to your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin.
3-2. Make your eyes pop with mineral eyeshadow.
Tap, or pour, a tiny amount of mineral eyeshadow into the jar’s lid. Swirl your eyeshadow brush around the lid until it contains all of the mineral powder. Tap off the brush on the side of the lid. Apply the eyeshadow from the outer corner of your eye to the inner corner with quick, downward strokes.
To complete the look, add mineral mascara to your lashes.
3-3. Complete your natural look with a mineral finishing veil.
Mineral veil is a finishing powder. This product will give you a nice, healthy glow while helping to keep your makeup in place. To apply this product:
Pour, or tap, a small amount of the powder into the container’s lid.
Swirl your kabuki brush around the inside of the lid until all of the mineral veil is gone.
Tap the brush on the side of the lid.
Apply the mineral veil to your face and neck with large, circular brush strokes.
Tips
The foundation will look a little powdery when you first apply it. It will settle into your skin and look much more natural in a few minutes.
If you don’t have a kabuki brush, you may use a smaller powder brush.
This is a great product to use if you have acne, eczema, or other skin conditions, as it contains fewer ingredients than traditional make-up. Most mineral make-ups even have soothing properties to heal such conditions.
Warnings
It's not recommended to sleep in ANY sort of make-up, so while this might not have the chemicals that can harm your skin, it still covers your skin. Pores open and skin heals when you sleep, so wash your face before bed. You can use water to get it off of your skin if you are not wearing any other makeup.
Though some brands claim to have an SPF factor, you might still want to use a sunscreen if you plan to be outside.
Some people are allergic to the minerals. I your skin gets itchy, or red, then you might not be able to use this type of foundation.

2,036 | How to Apply Moisturizer | 1. Using Facial Moisturizer
1-1. Wash your face
The best time to apply moisturizer is when your skin is clean. Work a gentle face cleanser into a lather and rinse it off thoroughly with lukewarm water. Gently pat your skin with a soft, clean towel to remove excess moisture. Don’t completely dry your skin, though! Leave it damp.
Applying moisturizer to damp skin helps trap more water in your skin. Also, damp skin absorbs products better.
Never wash your face with hot water because it strips skin of its moisture and natural oils.
1-2. Use an almond-sized amount of product for each application.
The amount of moisturizer to use varies by product. In general, thinner moisturizers can be applied more generously since your face absorbs them quickly. If you’re using a really thick moisturizer, a small dollop should do the trick. If you aren't sure where to start, go with an almond-sized amount of product.
You might need a thick cream if you’re dealing with a skin condition like psoriasis, eczema, or rosacea.
Day creams are typically thinner, while night creams are thicker.
You can find a rich moisturizer that works for both morning and night here.
You can also try using face cream with CBD for a calming effect. Popular brands include CBD American Shaman and Charlotte's Web.
1-3.
Use moisturizer with SPF 30 to protect your face and body during the day. Damage from the sun can lead to premature aging.
1-4. Dab a small amount of the moisturizer on different areas of your face.
Use clean fingertips to apply small dabs of the moisturizer onto key dry areas like your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. This helps to distribute the product evenly all over your face.
Don't forget to include your neck in both your washing and moisturizing routine. This is especially important when you're apply a daytime moisturizer with SPF, which will help protect these areas from sun damage.
1-5. Spread the moisturizer evenly around your face with your fingertips.
Using your fingertips, smooth each dab of moisturizer upwards and outwards on your face using circular motions. You only need to apply gentle pressure to blend the moisturizer into your skin evenly. Be extra careful around the delicate eye area.
Allow the moisturizer to absorb completely before applying makeup or other products.
1-6. Tap eye cream into the skin around your eyes with your ring finger.
The skin around your eyes is thinner and more sensitive than the skin anywhere else on your body. Because of this, many people like to apply a special cream to this area. If you want to try eye cream, use your middle or ring finger to dab a small amount around the eye area. Continue tapping the cream into your skin until it's completely absorbed.
Give the cream about a minute to fully absorb before moving on to your regular moisturizer.
For daytime, you can apply your usual SPF moisturizer around your eyes.
Avoid pulling or tugging the delicate skin around your eyes.
Look for eye creams made with ingredients like retinoids, hyaluronic acid, ceramides, neuropeptides, and vitamin E.
1-7. Apply lip balm to your lips to moisturize and protect them.
Just like the rest of your skin, your lips need to maintain moisture in order to stay hydrated and look great. Use a moisturizing lip balm to keep your lips soft and plump. Carry it with you and reapply as needed throughout the day. You can even wear it under your lipstick.
Consider using a lip balm that contains SPF if you plan on going outdoors.
If the lip balm makes your lips tingle or feels uncomfortable, you may want to try something else on the sensitive lip area.
2. Choosing the Best Moisturizer for Your Skin Type
2-1. Go with a water-based moisturizer if you have normal skin.
Normal skin is able to maintain a natural moisture balance. If you have normal skin, you rarely deal with issues like excessive oiliness or dry, flaky skin. You only need a light, water-based moisturizer to keep your skin looking fresh.
Water-based moisturizers never feel greasy. They often contain lightweight oils or silicone-derived ingredients.
2-2. Select a heavier oil-based moisturizer if you have dry skin.
Dry skin is usually flaky, itchy, and rough to the touch. Very dry skin may even crack and be painful. You need something a little heavier to restore hydration to dry skin, so go with a thick, oil-based moisturizer.
Moisturizers with a ceramide base are great at helping skin hold onto moisture.
You can also look for hydrating ingredients like lactic acid and urea.
For very dry and cracked skin, consider ointments made with petroleum jelly. Apply these at night before bed since they tend to be greasy.
2-3. Try a light, water-based moisturizer if you have oily skin.
If you have oily skin, you have shiny patches of oil in one or more places, normally on your face. Oily skin tends to be more susceptible to acne, so use a light, water-based moisturizer that won't clog your pores. Look for a product that say "oil-free" and "non-comedogenic" on the label.
Moisturizer is especially important if you're using an acne medication that contains drying ingredients like benzoyl peroxide or salicylic acid.
If you're acne-prone, avoid moisturizers that contain pore-clogging ingredients like petroleum jelly, cocoa butter, and coconut oil.
2-4. Use a moisturizer with soothing ingredients if you have sensitive skin.
If your skin is susceptible to irritation, redness, itching, or rashes, go with a soothing moisturizer made with chamomile or aloe. Look for products that say "hypoallergenic" and "fragrance-free" on the label.
Avoid products containing acids, which can irritate sensitive skin.
2-5. Try oil-based moisturizers with antioxidants if you have mature skin.
As skin ages, the oil-producing glands slow down and skin becomes thinner and drier. Go with an oil-based product made with petroleum jelly to lock in moisture and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Moisturizers with antioxidants or alpha hydroxy acids can help prevent flaky skin.
Moisturizers with retinoids and peptides can also be great for mature skin.
3. Moisturizing Your Body
3-1. Wash your body with gentle, moisturizing soap and warm water.
Use a mild cleanser with moisturizing ingredients like shea butter and glycerin. Apply the cleanser to your body with a light touch to avoid damaging your skin. Lather it up and rinse your skin thoroughly with warm water. Use a soft towel to gently pat the excess moisture off your skin but leave the skin damp.
To prevent stripping natural oils and moisture from your skin, limit your showers to 5 or 10 minutes and avoid using hot water.
Avoid loofahs and pumice stones if you have dry or sensitive skin.
3-2. Squirt a quarter-sized amount of moisturizer into the palm of your hand.
Rub the moisturizer between both palms for several seconds to spread the product evenly and warm it up a little. It’s best to start with a quarter-sized amount and continue to get more moisturizer, as needed.
You can find moisturizing body butter online here.
3-3. Use both hands to apply moisturizer to clean, still-damp skin.
Use short but firm strokes with your hands to spread the moisturizer over your body and smooth it into your skin. Be sure to apply moisturizer in the direction of the hair follicle and don’t rub too hard to avoid skin irritation.
Pay specific attention to the driest parts of your body like your elbows, knees, and feet.
3-4. Reapply moisturizer to your hands each time after washing them.
Every time you wash your hands, you remove the moisturizer you previously applied along with the natural oils and moisture in your skin. Get into the habit of applying hand cream every time after you wash your hands in order to keep them soft.
Tips
Use a humidifier to add moisture to the air and keep your skin hydrated.[28]

2,037 | How to Apply Moleskin | 1. Applying Moleskin to a Blister
1-1. Treat the blister.
Pierce the blister with a sterile needle and gently push out all the liquid, keeping the roof of the blister intact to protect the raw skin beneath. You will then want to apply antiseptic ointment to the blister and surrounding area and let it dry for fifteen seconds. This will act as a glue for the moleskin.
1-2. Cut a hole slightly bigger than the blister in a piece of moleskin.
It is easiest to fold the moleskin in half and cut out a semicircle or oval slightly larger than half the size of your blister along the folded edge. When you unfold it you should have a symmetrical shape that fits around the blister.
By making the hole bigger than the blister, you are creating a protective well that stops anything from rubbing against it and making it worse.
1-3. Place the moleskin around your blister.
Peel off the backing and place the moleskin sticky side down against your skin so the blister is directly in the centre of the hole.
The piece of moleskin should fit comfortably around your blister with about ½ an inch (or 1 cm) of material left between the hole and the edge of the moleskin.
Apply a second identical layer on top of this if your blister is flush with the surface of the first layer, or if it rises above it.
1-4. Place another piece of moleskin on top to cover the hole and blister.
This piece should be exactly the same size as the pieces beneath it, but without the hole in the centre. It will act as a lid, protecting the blister from friction and contamination.
1-5. Tape the moleskin to your skin.
Spread the tape across the whole patch of moleskin with athletic or duct tape to secure it in place. If possible, try wrapping it entirely around your foot, ankle, or toe respectively if the blister is on any of these areas to make sure the tape doesn’t peel off when rubbing against your shoes. You should now be able to carry on with your activities pain free.
While moleskin is adhesive, it is not very strong and you risk it peeling off without tape.
2. Applying Moleskin to Your Shoes
2-1. Locate all the areas on your shoes causing pain or friction.
Common places are around the toes in covered shoes, straps, and the back of the shoe by the heel. Moleskin will be able to prevent chafing in these areas and relieve pressure for spots where the shoe digs into your skin, such as with thin straps.
You should be able to feel very quickly while wearing them where these uncomfortable spots in your shoes are. If there is a gap between the back of the shoe and your heel, it is likely that chafing and blistering will occur after long or repetitive periods of use.
2-2. Measure the size of moleskin you will need.
Hold a piece of moleskin beside the area to get an estimate of the size you’ll need. Then with pen or pencil trace onto the moleskin the part of the shoe you will be covering in moleskin.
You want to cover the entire area that is causing pain or discomfort. If it is a strap, measure the moleskin along the entire length of the inside of it. If it’s the heel, the moleskin should reach from the very bottom to the very top of the heel, and span wide enough to cover all chafing areas. The width of this varies person by person and is different for each shoe.
2-3. Cut the piece of moleskin along the lines you drew.
When you realign this shape with the part of the shoe you’re covering, it should not be visible from the outside. Place it inside the shoe without taking the paper backing off to check it is a perfect fit. Trim anywhere it will be visible.
2-4. Unpeel part of the backing tape to reveal a small section of adhesive.
Don’t peel the backing off the moleskin entirely or it will be too hard to stick on perfectly. Unpeel the part that will be in the most hard to reach spot, such as the front of the toes or where the sides or straps meet with the inner sole.
2-5. Line up your moleskin as perfectly as possible with the shape of the shoe.
Press the sticky part firmly against the inside of the shoe and make sure it stays. Slowly unpeel the rest of the backing with one hand as you press the moleskin against the shoe with the other, making sure it stays perfectly aligned with the shoe. Your shoes are now ready to be worn.
If you are working with a covered toe, stick your index finger over the sticky portion of the moleskin and slide the moleskin forward into the tip of the toe area along the sole of the shoe. When you push the moleskin in as far as possible, remove your finger and press the tip of the shoe down onto the sticky part of the moleskin to bind them together. Slip your hand beneath the moleskin and with the other hand pull off the rest of the backing, pressing the moleskin up against your shoe as you go.
3. Using Moleskin for Bra Repair
3-1. Work the underwire back into your bra.
Pinch the underwire with two fingers and scrunch as much of the underwire’s fabric sleeve up to your fingers as possible. Then, pinching both the tip of the wire and the hole where underwire first emerges from the sleeve, pull back on the scrunched fabric until it is straightened out. The underwire should now be completely back in the sleeve. You may need to repeat this process a few times.
If the tip of your underwire is bent out of shape, pinch at the base of the bend with one hand and use your other to pry it backwards to unbend it. This may require bending it in various ways until it is roughly the shape it should be.
3-2. Cut a small strip of moleskin to cover the area.
This should be about 1 inch (2.5 cm) long and just wide enough to cover the underwire tubing. This is to prevent the underwire from poking out again, and needs to be longer than the hole itself so that the moleskin has enough surface area to stick to and stay put.
3-3. Stick the moleskin over the hole along the underwire.
None of the moleskin should be sticking to the cup of the bra or it won’t stay as sticky. It should only be on the underwire casing and cover the hole entirely. Press it down firmly so that the underwire doesn’t push the moleskin off and emerge again.
By massaging the moleskin in your hands before unpeeling the backing you will warm the glue and help it stick to the fabric easier.
4. Applying Moleskin to Lavalier Microphones
4-1. Cut a long thin strip the width of your microphone.
You want to cover the entire base body of the microphone without covering the part that receives sound. You will be wrapping this around the microphone multiple times, so the length should be long enough to go around the microphone 4 times.
4-2. Wrap the moleskin around the microphone.
Being careful not to cover the top of the microphone, wrap the moleskin around the microphone 2-3 times with the sticky side facing outwards.
4-3. Stick a safety pin against the microphone.
With the safety pin open, stick the long, complete end of the safety pin to the moleskin. The pointed metal end of the pin should be free and pointing outwards, away from the tape. This is so you can attach the microphone to the inside of clothes for use later.
4-4. Wrap the moleskin around the microphone once more.
This will hold the safety pin to the microphone. Cut off any excess moleskin from the strip. You may now easily attach the microphone to clothes using the safety pin and have less sound interference than before.
To stop the outside of the tape from being sticky, you may wish to apply a layer of moleskin sticky side down to the outside of the microphone and tape. You could do this at the end or before wrapping the pin to the microphone for the final layer.
Tips
Work preventatively during exercise. If you are experiencing chafing or know areas you’re prone to getting sores, tape a piece of moleskin to your skin the size of the affected area to the appropriate spot.[15]

You do not need to cut holes into it as there is no blister to protect yet; this is just to stop the friction.
You can keep moleskin bandages on blisters for up to three days at a time. If the area is still infected, you may clean and reapply these steps. If the infection persists, however, consider seeing a doctor.[16]

Covering the inner toes of ballet flats with a layer of moleskin will prevent the top of the flats to wear out and will also hide toe bumps better.[17]

Warnings
The moleskin will likely come off your bra after a few washes so you will need to replace them periodically.[18]

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Applying Moleskin to a Blister\\n1-1. Treat the blister.\\nPierce the blister with a sterile needle and gently push out all the liquid, keeping the roof of the blister intact to protect the raw skin beneath. You will then want to apply antiseptic ointment to the blister and surrounding area and let it dry for fifteen seconds. This will act as a glue for the moleskin.\\n1-2. Cut a hole slightly bigger than the blister in a piece of moleskin.\\nIt is easiest to fold the moleskin in half and cut out a semicircle or oval slightly larger than half the size of your blister along the folded edge. When you unfold it you should have a symmetrical shape that fits around the blister.\\nBy making the hole bigger than the blister, you are creating a protective well that stops anything from rubbing against it and making it worse.\\n1-3. Place the moleskin around your blister.\\nPeel off the backing and place the moleskin sticky side down against your skin so the blister is directly in the centre of the hole.\\nThe piece of moleskin should fit comfortably around your blister with about ½ an inch (or 1 cm) of material left between the hole and the edge of the moleskin.\\nApply a second identical layer on top of this if your blister is flush with the surface of the first layer, or if it rises above it.\\n1-4. Place another piece of moleskin on top to cover the hole and blister.\\nThis piece should be exactly the same size as the pieces beneath it, but without the hole in the centre. It will act as a lid, protecting the blister from friction and contamination.\\n1-5. Tape the moleskin to your skin.\\nSpread the tape across the whole patch of moleskin with athletic or duct tape to secure it in place. If possible, try wrapping it entirely around your foot, ankle, or toe respectively if the blister is on any of these areas to make sure the tape doesn’t peel off when rubbing against your shoes. You should now be able to carry on with your activities pain free.\\nWhile moleskin is adhesive, it is not very strong and you risk it peeling off without tape.\\n2. Applying Moleskin to Your Shoes\\n2-1. Locate all the areas on your shoes causing pain or friction.\\nCommon places are around the toes in covered shoes, straps, and the back of the shoe by the heel. Moleskin will be able to prevent chafing in these areas and relieve pressure for spots where the shoe digs into your skin, such as with thin straps.\\nYou should be able to feel very quickly while wearing them where these uncomfortable spots in your shoes are. If there is a gap between the back of the shoe and your heel, it is likely that chafing and blistering will occur after long or repetitive periods of use.\\n2-2. Measure the size of moleskin you will need.\\nHold a piece of moleskin beside the area to get an estimate of the size you’ll need. Then with pen or pencil trace onto the moleskin the part of the shoe you will be covering in moleskin.\\nYou want to cover the entire area that is causing pain or discomfort. If it is a strap, measure the moleskin along the entire length of the inside of it. If it’s the heel, the moleskin should reach from the very bottom to the very top of the heel, and span wide enough to cover all chafing areas. The width of this varies person by person and is different for each shoe.\\n2-3. Cut the piece of moleskin along the lines you drew.\\nWhen you realign this shape with the part of the shoe you’re covering, it should not be visible from the outside. Place it inside the shoe without taking the paper backing off to check it is a perfect fit. Trim anywhere it will be visible.\\n2-4. Unpeel part of the backing tape to reveal a small section of adhesive.\\nDon’t peel the backing off the moleskin entirely or it will be too hard to stick on perfectly. Unpeel the part that will be in the most hard to reach spot, such as the front of the toes or where the sides or straps meet with the inner sole.\\n2-5. Line up your moleskin as perfectly as possible with the shape of the shoe.\\nPress the sticky part firmly against the inside of the shoe and make sure it stays. Slowly unpeel the rest of the backing with one hand as you press the moleskin against the shoe with the other, making sure it stays perfectly aligned with the shoe. Your shoes are now ready to be worn.\\nIf you are working with a covered toe, stick your index finger over the sticky portion of the moleskin and slide the moleskin forward into the tip of the toe area along the sole of the shoe. When you push the moleskin in as far as possible, remove your finger and press the tip of the shoe down onto the sticky part of the moleskin to bind them together. Slip your hand beneath the moleskin and with the other hand pull off the rest of the backing, pressing the moleskin up against your shoe as you go.\\n3. Using Moleskin for Bra Repair\\n3-1. Work the underwire back into your bra.\\nPinch the underwire with two fingers and scrunch as much of the underwire’s fabric sleeve up to your fingers as possible. Then, pinching both the tip of the wire and the hole where underwire first emerges from the sleeve, pull back on the scrunched fabric until it is straightened out. The underwire should now be completely back in the sleeve. You may need to repeat this process a few times.\\nIf the tip of your underwire is bent out of shape, pinch at the base of the bend with one hand and use your other to pry it backwards to unbend it. This may require bending it in various ways until it is roughly the shape it should be.\\n3-2. Cut a small strip of moleskin to cover the area.\\nThis should be about 1 inch (2.5 cm) long and just wide enough to cover the underwire tubing. This is to prevent the underwire from poking out again, and needs to be longer than the hole itself so that the moleskin has enough surface area to stick to and stay put.\\n3-3. Stick the moleskin over the hole along the underwire.\\nNone of the moleskin should be sticking to the cup of the bra or it won’t stay as sticky. It should only be on the underwire casing and cover the hole entirely. Press it down firmly so that the underwire doesn’t push the moleskin off and emerge again.\\nBy massaging the moleskin in your hands before unpeeling the backing you will warm the glue and help it stick to the fabric easier.\\n4. Applying Moleskin to Lavalier Microphones\\n4-1. Cut a long thin strip the width of your microphone.\\nYou want to cover the entire base body of the microphone without covering the part that receives sound. You will be wrapping this around the microphone multiple times, so the length should be long enough to go around the microphone 4 times.\\n4-2.

2,038 | How to Apply Monistat | 1. Knowing When to Use Monistat
1-1. See your doctor if you’ve never had a yeast infection before.
If you’re not sure that you have a yeast infection, it’s important to get a proper diagnosis before you use Monistat or any other over-the-counter treatment. The symptoms of a yeast infection can look similar to a variety of other vaginal infections, which may require different kinds of medications (such as antibiotics). Common symptoms of a vaginal yeast infection include:
Itching, pain, or irritation around the vulva and vagina
Burning when you urinate or have sex
Redness, swelling, or a rash in the area around the vagina and vulva
A thick, white discharge that looks like cottage cheese
Watery discharge from the vagina
1-2. Ask your doctor if Monistat is a good choice for you.
Even if your doctor diagnoses you with a yeast infection, they may recommend a treatment other than Monistat. For example, a severe yeast infection may require a prescription antifungal medication. Before using Monistat, let your doctor know if:
You are taking certain medications, such as warfarin or another blood-thinning medication
You have severe symptoms, such as a fever, abdominal or back pain, nausea and vomiting, or bad-smelling discharge from your vagina
Your yeast infections are frequent (i.e., you get them once a month or more)
You have a condition that weakens your immune system, such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes, or cancer
You are pregnant
1-3. Work with your doctor to determine which Monistat to use.
Monistat comes in 3 different dosages, which are meant to be taken over the course of 1, 3, or 7 days. Your doctor may recommend one or another of these treatment options depending on the severity of your infection, any other conditions or concerns you might have, and your personal preferences. The types of Monistat are:
Monistat 1. This is the strongest dosage and comes in a single application, which can take the form of an ovule (a small, egg-like suppository) or a vaginal cream. Monistat 1 provides the fastest relief and is designed for women who are busy or active.
Monistat 3. This is an intermediate dose that is meant to be taken over 3 days. It comes in ovule, suppository, or cream form.
Monistat 7. Monistat 7 is the lowest dose of Monistat, which you administer as an internal vaginal cream over the course of 7 days. Your doctor may recommend this form of Monistat if you are pregnant or have diabetes.
1-4. Contact your doctor if your symptoms don’t improve in 3 days.
No matter which form of Monistat you choose, you should begin to feel some relief within 3 days, and your symptoms should be completely gone within a week. If you don’t see improvement during that time, stop using Monistat and contact your doctor. You should also let them know if you experience severe symptoms or side effects while taking Monistat, such as:
A rash or hives
Nausea or vomiting
Abdominal pain
A fever or chills
Bad-smelling discharge from your vagina
2. Applying Monistat 1
2-1. Wash your hands
Before you use Monistat, clean your hands thoroughly with warm water and hand soap. Pat them dry with a clean towel. Your hands should be dry when you handle the medication.
You should also wash your hands after you’re finished applying the Monistat.
2-2. Place the Monistat 1 ovule in the end of the applicator.
Your Monistat 1 package should include a single ovule, which is a small, egg-shaped suppository. Peel the paper backing off of the blister pack containing the ovule, and push the ovule into the wider end of the disposable applicator.
Make sure you push the ovule in firmly enough that it can’t fall out.
2-3. Insert the Monistat 1 applicator into your vagina.
Stand or lie down with your legs spread slightly. If you stand, bend your knees a little and place your feet 3–5 inches (7.6–12.7 cm) apart. You can also lie on your back with your knees bent. Hold the applicator by the plunger end and gently slide it into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go.
2-4. Push the plunger in to release the ovule into your vagina.
Once the applicator is fully inserted into your vagina, hold the barrel of the applicator with one hand and push the plunger in all the way with your other hand. This will push the ovule deep into your vagina, near the cervix.
When you’re done, remove both the plunger and the barrel of the applicator from your vagina. Throw away the applicator.
2-5. Place a deodorant-free sanitary pad in your underwear to control leaking.
The Monistat 1 ovule is relatively mess-free, but you may still experience a little leaking or discharge when you use it. If you wish, you can protect your underwear with a fragrance-free sanitary pad or panty liner until any discharge clears up.
Don’t use tampons while you are using Monistat 1. You should also avoid using douches, condoms, diaphragms, or spermicidal gel until you’ve finished the treatment and your symptoms have cleared up.
2-6. Apply the External Vulvar Cream twice a day to relieve itching.
The Monistat 1 Combination Pack also includes a tube of anti-itch cream, which you can apply to your vulva and the area outside your vagina twice a day for up to 7 days. The first time you use the cream, you’ll need to puncture the seal on the tube with the sharp point on the top of the cap.
Don’t insert any of the external cream directly into your vagina.
2-7. Try Monistat 1 Tioconazole if you are sensitive to the Monistat 1 ovule.
The Monistat 1 ovule contains a high concentration of miconazole nitrate, an antifungal medication. If you’re sensitive to this medication, you can try Monistat 1 Tioconazole Ointment as an alternative. This is also a single dose medication, but it comes in the form of a cream instead of an ovule.
To use the tioconazole ointment, take the prefilled applicator out of the foil packet and unscrew the cap. Insert the applicator into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go and depress the plunger to release the medication.
For best results, use this medication at bedtime. This will allow the medication to stay in your vagina longer without leaking out.
3. Using Monistat 3
3-1. Determine which form of Monistat 3 you prefer.
You can get Monistat 3 in the form of an ovule, a quick-dissolving suppository, or a cream. All 3 forms come in separate doses that are to be taken over the course of 3 days.
The ovules are the least messy of the options, and they also stay in place well, meaning that they can be used during the day if you prefer.
The suppositories are easy to insert, but are messier than the ovules. Once they are inserted, they dissolve quickly and create a lot of leakage. This option is usually cheaper than the ovules.
The pre-filled cream applicators make the whole process quick and easy, but these are also the messiest option. The cream will quickly leak out of your vagina if you stand up or move around after inserting it.
Use the suppositories and the cream at bedtime for the best results.
3-2. Wash your hands before inserting the applicator.
Before applying Monistat 3, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water. Pat your hands dry with a clean towel when you’re done.
Wash your hands again when you’re done applying the medication.
3-3. Insert the ovule or suppository into the applicator.
If you’re using Monistat 3 in the ovule or suppository form, you’ll need to remove the ovule or suppository from the blister pack and insert it into the wider end of the applicator. Make sure to push it in far enough that it can’t come out easily.
If you’re using the cream form of Monistat 3, simply unscrew the cap from the pre-filled applicator.
3-4. Place the applicator in your vagina and push the plunger.
Stand with your feet slightly apart and your knees bent, or lie down on your back and pull your knees up. Insert the applicator as far as you comfortably can into your vagina. Hold the barrel in place with one hand while you push the plunger with the other to release the medication into your vagina.
Throw away the applicator when you’re done.
If you’re using the cream or the suppository, you may experience a lot of leakage if you stand up or move around right after application. Try to use the medication right before bed so that it can stay in your vagina as long as possible.
Administer 1 dose per day for 3 days.
3-5. Protect your underwear with an unscented sanitary pad.
All 3 forms of Monistat 3 can come with leakage or discharge. To prevent messes, try placing a perfume-free sanitary pad or panty liner in your underwear while you’re using the treatment.
Don’t use tampons, condoms, diaphragms, douches, or spermicidal gels until you’re done with the course of treatment and your symptoms are gone.
3-6. Use the external anti-itch cream twice a day as needed.
All 3 forms of Monistat 3 can be purchased as combination packs that also contain an external anti-itch medication. To use this, place a little of the cream on your fingertip and apply it to your vulva and the area around the outside of your vagina. You can use this medication twice a day for up to 7 days as needed.
Don’t put the anti-itch cream directly inside your vagina.
4. Administering Monistat 7
4-1. Wash your hands with soap and warm water.
Before using Monistat 7, wash your hands thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel when you’re done.
Wash your hands again after applying the medication.
4-2. Fill one of the disposable applicators with the cream.
Monistat 7 is only sold in the form of a cream. You may be able to get a package with pre-filled applicators, or you might need to fill the applicator yourself from a tube of cream included in the package.
If your applicators are pre-filled, simply take the applicator out of its package and unscrew the cap right before use. You may also need to insert the plunger into the barrel of the applicator.
If you got a package with empty applicators, fill the applicator with cream from the tube of medication as directed in the package instructions.
4-3. Insert the applicator into your vagina and push the plunger.
Stand with your feet apart and your knees slightly bent, or lie down on your back in a comfortable position. Gently slide the applicator tube into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go. Hold the barrel with one hand and push in the plunger with the other to release the cream into your vagina.
If you’re using a pre-filled applicator, make sure the cap is off before you insert the applicator into your vagina.
Give yourself 1 dose per day for 7 days at bedtime. Lie down immediately after you insert the cream so that it can stay in your vagina as long as possible.
4-4. Wear an unscented sanitary pad to keep your underwear clean.
The Monistat 7 cream will likely leak out of your vagina and make a mess, and you might also experience some discharge during the treatment. Protect your underwear with sanitary pads or panty liners during the course of your treatment.
Wait until you’re done using the medication and your symptoms have cleared up before using tampons, spermicidal gels, condoms, diaphragms, or douches.
4-5. Apply a little anti-itch cream twice a day as needed.
You can buy Monistat 7 as a combination pack with an external anti-itch cream. Alternatively, if you didn’t get a package with pre-filled applicators, you can use some of the medicine in the tube to treat external itching as well as in the internal applicators. Put a little of the cream on your finger and apply it to the itchy area around the outside of your vagina.
Use the anti-itch cream for up to 7 days.
Warnings
Don’t flush Monistat applicators down the toilet, since this could seriously damage your plumbing. Throw them in the trash instead.

For example, a severe yeast infection may require a prescription antifungal medication. Before using Monistat, let your doctor know if:\\nYou are taking certain medications, such as warfarin or another blood-thinning medication\\nYou have severe symptoms, such as a fever, abdominal or back pain, nausea and vomiting, or bad-smelling discharge from your vagina\\nYour yeast infections are frequent (i.e., you get them once a month or more)\\nYou have a condition that weakens your immune system, such as HIV/AIDS, diabetes, or cancer\\nYou are pregnant\\n1-3. Work with your doctor to determine which Monistat to use.\\nMonistat comes in 3 different dosages, which are meant to be taken over the course of 1, 3, or 7 days. Your doctor may recommend one or another of these treatment options depending on the severity of your infection, any other conditions or concerns you might have, and your personal preferences. The types of Monistat are:\\nMonistat 1. This is the strongest dosage and comes in a single application, which can take the form of an ovule (a small, egg-like suppository) or a vaginal cream. Monistat 1 provides the fastest relief and is designed for women who are busy or active.\\nMonistat 3. This is an intermediate dose that is meant to be taken over 3 days. It comes in ovule, suppository, or cream form.\\nMonistat 7. Monistat 7 is the lowest dose of Monistat, which you administer as an internal vaginal cream over the course of 7 days. Your doctor may recommend this form of Monistat if you are pregnant or have diabetes.\\n1-4. Contact your doctor if your symptoms don’t improve in 3 days.\\nNo matter which form of Monistat you choose, you should begin to feel some relief within 3 days, and your symptoms should be completely gone within a week. If you don’t see improvement during that time, stop using Monistat and contact your doctor. You should also let them know if you experience severe symptoms or side effects while taking Monistat, such as:\\nA rash or hives\\nNausea or vomiting\\nAbdominal pain\\nA fever or chills\\nBad-smelling discharge from your vagina\\n2. Applying Monistat 1\\n2-1. Wash your hands\\nBefore you use Monistat, clean your hands thoroughly with warm water and hand soap. Pat them dry with a clean towel. Your hands should be dry when you handle the medication.\\nYou should also wash your hands after you’re finished applying the Monistat.\\n2-2. Place the Monistat 1 ovule in the end of the applicator.\\nYour Monistat 1 package should include a single ovule, which is a small, egg-shaped suppository. Peel the paper backing off of the blister pack containing the ovule, and push the ovule into the wider end of the disposable applicator.\\nMake sure you push the ovule in firmly enough that it can’t fall out.\\n2-3. Insert the Monistat 1 applicator into your vagina.\\nStand or lie down with your legs spread slightly. If you stand, bend your knees a little and place your feet 3–5 inches (7.6–12.7 cm) apart. You can also lie on your back with your knees bent. Hold the applicator by the plunger end and gently slide it into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go.\\n2-4. Push the plunger in to release the ovule into your vagina.\\nOnce the applicator is fully inserted into your vagina, hold the barrel of the applicator with one hand and push the plunger in all the way with your other hand. This will push the ovule deep into your vagina, near the cervix.\\nWhen you’re done, remove both the plunger and the barrel of the applicator from your vagina. Throw away the applicator.\\n2-5. Place a deodorant-free sanitary pad in your underwear to control leaking.\\nThe Monistat 1 ovule is relatively mess-free, but you may still experience a little leaking or discharge when you use it. If you wish, you can protect your underwear with a fragrance-free sanitary pad or panty liner until any discharge clears up.\\nDon’t use tampons while you are using Monistat 1. You should also avoid using douches, condoms, diaphragms, or spermicidal gel until you’ve finished the treatment and your symptoms have cleared up.\\n2-6. Apply the External Vulvar Cream twice a day to relieve itching.\\nThe Monistat 1 Combination Pack also includes a tube of anti-itch cream, which you can apply to your vulva and the area outside your vagina twice a day for up to 7 days. The first time you use the cream, you’ll need to puncture the seal on the tube with the sharp point on the top of the cap.\\nDon’t insert any of the external cream directly into your vagina.\\n2-7. Try Monistat 1 Tioconazole if you are sensitive to the Monistat 1 ovule.\\nThe Monistat 1 ovule contains a high concentration of miconazole nitrate, an antifungal medication. If you’re sensitive to this medication, you can try Monistat 1 Tioconazole Ointment as an alternative. This is also a single dose medication, but it comes in the form of a cream instead of an ovule.\\nTo use the tioconazole ointment, take the prefilled applicator out of the foil packet and unscrew the cap. Insert the applicator into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go and depress the plunger to release the medication.\\nFor best results, use this medication at bedtime. This will allow the medication to stay in your vagina longer without leaking out.\\n3. Using Monistat 3\\n3-1. Determine which form of Monistat 3 you prefer.\\nYou can get Monistat 3 in the form of an ovule, a quick-dissolving suppository, or a cream. All 3 forms come in separate doses that are to be taken over the course of 3 days.\\nThe ovules are the least messy of the options, and they also stay in place well, meaning that they can be used during the day if you prefer.\\nThe suppositories are easy to insert, but are messier than the ovules. Once they are inserted, they dissolve quickly and create a lot of leakage. This option is usually cheaper than the ovules.\\nThe pre-filled cream applicators make the whole process quick and easy, but these are also the messiest option. The cream will quickly leak out of your vagina if you stand up or move around after inserting it.\\nUse the suppositories and the cream at bedtime for the best results.\\n3-2. Wash your hands before inserting the applicator.\\nBefore applying Monistat 3, wash your hands thoroughly with soap and warm water. Pat your hands dry with a clean towel when you’re done.\\nWash your hands again when you’re done applying the medication.\\n3-3. Insert the ovule or suppository into the applicator.\\nIf you’re using Monistat 3 in the ovule or suppository form, you’ll need to remove the ovule or suppository from the blister pack and insert it into the wider end of the applicator. Make sure to push it in far enough that it can’t come out easily.\\nIf you’re using the cream form of Monistat 3, simply unscrew the cap from the pre-filled applicator.\\n3-4. Place the applicator in your vagina and push the plunger.\\nStand with your feet slightly apart and your knees bent, or lie down on your back and pull your knees up. Insert the applicator as far as you comfortably can into your vagina. Hold the barrel in place with one hand while you push the plunger with the other to release the medication into your vagina.\\nThrow away the applicator when you’re done.\\nIf you’re using the cream or the suppository, you may experience a lot of leakage if you stand up or move around right after application. Try to use the medication right before bed so that it can stay in your vagina as long as possible.\\nAdminister 1 dose per day for 3 days.\\n3-5. Protect your underwear with an unscented sanitary pad.\\nAll 3 forms of Monistat 3 can come with leakage or discharge. To prevent messes, try placing a perfume-free sanitary pad or panty liner in your underwear while you’re using the treatment.\\nDon’t use tampons, condoms, diaphragms, douches, or spermicidal gels until you’re done with the course of treatment and your symptoms are gone.\\n3-6. Use the external anti-itch cream twice a day as needed.\\nAll 3 forms of Monistat 3 can be purchased as combination packs that also contain an external anti-itch medication. To use this, place a little of the cream on your fingertip and apply it to your vulva and the area around the outside of your vagina. You can use this medication twice a day for up to 7 days as needed.\\nDon’t put the anti-itch cream directly inside your vagina.\\n4. Administering Monistat 7\\n4-1. Wash your hands with soap and warm water.\\nBefore using Monistat 7, wash your hands thoroughly. Pat them dry with a clean towel when you’re done.\\nWash your hands again after applying the medication.\\n4-2. Fill one of the disposable applicators with the cream.\\nMonistat 7 is only sold in the form of a cream. You may be able to get a package with pre-filled applicators, or you might need to fill the applicator yourself from a tube of cream included in the package.\\nIf your applicators are pre-filled, simply take the applicator out of its package and unscrew the cap right before use. You may also need to insert the plunger into the barrel of the applicator.\\nIf you got a package with empty applicators, fill the applicator with cream from the tube of medication as directed in the package instructions.\\n4-3. Insert the applicator into your vagina and push the plunger.\\nStand with your feet apart and your knees slightly bent, or lie down on your back in a comfortable position. Gently slide the applicator tube into your vagina as far as it will comfortably go. Hold the barrel with one hand and push in the plunger with the other to release the cream into your vagina.\\nIf you’re using a pre-filled applicator, make sure the cap is off before you insert the applicator into your vagina.\\nGive yourself 1 dose per day for 7 days at bedtime. Lie down immediately after you insert the cream so that it can stay in your vagina as long as possible.\\n4-4. Wear an unscented sanitary pad to keep your underwear clean.\\nThe Monistat 7 cream will likely leak out of your vagina and make a mess, and you might also experience some discharge during the treatment. Protect your underwear with sanitary pads or panty liners during the course of your treatment.\\nWait until you’re done using the medication and your symptoms have cleared up before using tampons, spermicidal gels, condoms, diaphragms, or douches.\\n4-5. Apply a little anti-itch cream twice a day as needed.\\nYou can buy Monistat 7 as a combination pack with an external anti-itch cream. Alternatively, if you didn’t get a package with pre-filled applicators, you can use some of the medicine in the tube to treat external itching as well as in the internal applicators. Put a little of the cream on your finger and apply it to the itchy area around the outside of your vagina.\\nUse the anti-itch cream for up to 7 days.\\nWarnings\\nDon’t flush Monistat applicators down the toilet, since this could seriously damage your plumbing. Throw them in the trash instead.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Vaginal yeast infections are aggravating and uncomfortable.

2,039 | How to Apply Mousse Foundation | 1. Prepping Your Skin
1-1. Wash your face.
Find a cleanser that’s right for your skin and use circular motions to work it into your skin with your fingertips. Start this at the bottom of your face, and work your way up. Dry your skin with a clean washcloth or paper towel.
It’s important to know your skin type and pick a cleanser that matches it. If you don’t, you could end up with a cleanser that is either too stripping (which will dry out your skin) or too rich (which will clog your pores)!
1-2. Apply facial toner using a cotton ball.
Toner can help reduce the amount of oil on your skin and make it easier for your foundation to spread evenly on your face. Soak a cotton ball in toner (by holding it against the mouth of the toner container and quickly flipping it upside-down) and then gently rub the cotton ball over the surface of your skin.
Apply more toner in your T-zone — the area across your forehead and vertically down your nose and chin. This is where your face tends to be more oily.
Always remember to apply toner first. This follows a the general “light-to-heavy” rule of applying cosmetics — lighter products first, and then thicker products after.
Remember to pick a toner that’s right for your skin.
1-3. Rub moisturizer on your face.
Right after you’ve applied your toner, dab small dollops of moisturizer all over your face and neck and blend it in. This should create an even layer of moisturizer. Then, wait 5 minutes for your skin to absorb it.
Try not to use too much product, because you don’t want to be wasteful or clog up your pores.
1-4. Follow with primer if you want your makeup to last for a long time.
If you need your makeup to stay intact through a particularly long day and into the night, primer is the way to go. Primer can also help to make lines and pores less noticeable. Start by applying it to the middle of your face with your fingertips and blend it outward.
Water-based primers are recommended for people with acne-prone or oily skin.
2. Putting On the Foundation
2-1. Dip your finger in the foundation.
Take your index finger and dip it into the product. You should have just enough to lightly coat the pad of your finger.
2-2. Dab the product lightly on your face.
Focus on applying it on your forehead, nose, cheekbones, and chin, as this is where it is easier for oil to accumulate. You’ll likely need to dip your finger in the product again — this is completely fine.
Just be careful not to use too much. Mousse foundations tend to come in smaller containers because you don’t need to use as you might use when applying a liquid foundation.
2-3. Blend in the product using your fingers or a foundation brush.
Start blending in the center of your face, and work outwards. Work in light, short, downward strokes. Inspect your skin for uneven patches and blend those out. The foundation should feel pretty lightweight and airy on your skin.
The brush is a much quicker method of blending than using your fingers, but the warmth of your fingers can help give the foundation a more natural blend. There are advantages to both methods.
Mousse foundation should provide light to medium coverage. It won’t quite make all of your blemishes disappear, but it’ll definitely even out your skin-tone for a more matte look.
Don’t dip the brush directly into the foundation. Because mousse is of a thicker texture, it will not adhere to the brush in the same way that a liquid foundation would. You may find yourself in a similar dilemma if you try to use a foam beauty blender.
2-4. Apply concealer and setting powder to finish the look.
Using a smaller brush, blend a concealer of your choice over any blemishes or scars that you want extra coverage on. Then, use a larger powder brush to gently press a powder into your skin. This will set your foundation and help keep it on longer, instead of rubbing off during the day.
Tips
Remember to always make sure your hands are clean before using your fingers to apply foundation to your face.
Warnings
If you struggle with particularly oily skin, don’t use a mousse foundation that has an oily base. There are versions available that are oil-free and use mineral bases instead.

2,040 | How to Apply Mulch | 1. Choosing the Right Mulch
1-1. Select an organic mulch to add nutrients to your lawn.
Organic mulches include wood chips, straw, grass clippings, chopped leaves, and compost. When the mulch breaks down, it naturally adds nutrients to the underlying soil. Organic mulch will also help with water retention, weed prevention, and will protect plant roots. Organic mulches won't, however, protect from pests.
You can purchase organic mulch online or at a gardening store.
Organic mulches will have to be replaced or augmented every year.
1-2. Choose inorganic mulch for a decorative look.
Inorganic mulches include gravel, stones, tumbled glass, and river rock. Inorganic mulch can prevent weed germination, help retain moisture, and regulate root temperature, but are often less effective than organic mulches. Unlike organic mulches, however, inorganic mulches come in a wide variety of colors and styles that you can use to decorate your outdoor space. Choose a stone or gravel that matches the aesthetic of your landscaping.
For example, you can get an inorganic mulch that matches the color of your house.
If you are going to a sleek, modern style, you may want to get stones that are all the same size and shape.
Using stone or gravel in high temperatures could overheat and hurt your plants.
1-3. Purchase enough mulch to cover the area.
You'll want to cover your flower bed or lawn with 1 inch (2.5 cm) - 2 inches (5.1 cm) of mulch during the summer. To determine how much mulch you need to purchase for your space, you can use an online calculator.
Mulch is typically sold by the so-called “yard” which covers 100 square feet (9.3 m) of garden 3 inches (7.6 cm) deep.
If you are using mulch for weed control, apply the mulch so it's 2 inches (5.1 cm) - 4 inches (10 cm) thick.
If you are mulching vegetable beds during the winter you should lay down a 4 inches (10 cm) - 6 inches (15 cm) layer.
Applying too much mulch will suffocate plant roots and kill a plant.
2. Deciding When to Mulch
2-1. Apply organic mulch in the early summer for the best results.
You can still mulch throughout other parts of the year, but the end of spring and beginning of summer are often the best time to lay down mulch. During this time, the soil has warmed up and plants are typically out of dormancy.
If you are laying down mulch to prevent weeds or improve the health of your lawn or flower bed, it's best to do it sooner rather than wait for the optimal time.
2-2. Apply winter mulch in the late fall.
A common misconception is that winter mulch can prevent the soil from freezing in cold temperatures. This is untrue, but applying mulch can make the freezing process more gradual and reduce excessive freeze-thaw cycles, which is better for your plants. When laying down mulch for winter protection, lay down 2 inches (5.1 cm) - 4 inches (10 cm) of mulch to the area.
You can use both organic and inorganic mulch for winter mulching.
2-3. Add organic mulch to newly planted trees or shrubs.
Organic mulch like compost or manure are the best types of mulch to use for newly planted shrubs, trees, and flowers because they add essential nutrients to the soil and protect the new plants from weeds. Inorganic mulches won't have an effect on newly planted trees or shrubs.
Wood-based organic mulch may compete for nitrogen with your new plants, so if you plan on using them, till nitrogen amendments into the soil beforehand.
3. Laying Down Mulch
3-1. Pull weeds out of the lawn.
Use a garden spade to dig out any existing weeds in the area. Make sure to get deep enough to dig out the weeds roots or it may grow back. This step is important so that weeds don't grow under the mulch.
If you have time, you can use a chemical weed killer to remove weeds as an alternative.
A selective chemical weed killer will only harm broad leaf weeds or grasses. A nonselective chemical weed killer will harm any plant it comes into contact with.
Don any safety gear recommended by your weed killer and read the manufacturer's directions regarding application.
3-2. Create an edge for the mulch.
Use a shovel or manual edger and carefully dig around the area that you want to mulch. This should create a smooth continuous line around the flower bed or tree that will help keep the mulch off the grass.
Don't toss the soil into your flowerbed or you may promote grass growth in your mulch.
You can also create an edge by lining up stone around the area that you want to mulch.
3-3. Remove existing mulch or dress the top with a similar mulch.
Use a shovel to dig away any existing mulch on the top surface of your lawn or flower bed. Transfer the old mulch into a wheelbarrow and discard it. You'll know you've removed enough mulch when you see dark brown soil with roots in it.
You can place the old mulch into a compost pile and let it break down.
If you are adding a similar mulch, you can simply top dress the existing mulch after smoothing it out with a rake.
3-4. Shovel small piles of mulch onto your flower bed or lawn.
First, pour the mulch into a wheelbarrow to make it easier to transport. Then, shovel small piles of mulch in the areas that you want to add it to. Once you have 3-4 small piles, move onto the next step.
Just dumping all of the mulch in one area may leave you with too much mulch, which will suffocate your plants' roots.
3-5. Rake the mulch over the area in an even layer.
Rake down the small piles that you shoveled into the area. If you're mulching during the spring or summer, create a 1 inch (2.5 cm) - 2 inches (5.1 cm) layer over the entirety of the area. If you are using a larger, inorganic mulch, you can spread it out with your hands rather than a rake. As you need more, pour more mulch in the area with your shovel.
If you are mulching during the winter or for weed prevention, you can create a layer that is 4 inches (10 cm) thick.
Leave an 1 inch (2.5 cm) of clearance between the trunk of any trees or plants and the mulch.
3-6. Water organic mulch.
Watering organic mulch with a garden hose or buckets of water will prevent it from blowing away and give it moisture. Be careful not to over water the mulch or it the water may pool on the top of it, which could be detrimental to your plants.
3-7. Replace organic mulch every year.
Organic mulch will break down over time and lose most of its benefits over time. For this reason, you should remove the old mulch and add new mulch around the same time each year.
Wood chips often last longer than other organic mulches but will turn gray over time.
3-8. Replace inorganic mulch when it no longer looks fresh.
Inorganic mulch lasts much longer than organic mulch and doesn't need to be replaced often. If your gravel or stones look dirty, you could hose them down with water to clean them instead of replacing it.
Warnings
Cocoa hulls, a form of organic mulch, is toxic to dogs.[9]

2,041 | How to Apply Nail Foils | 1. Nail Foil FAQs
1-1. What are nail foils?
There are 2 main types of nail foils: the foils that come in a sheet and the foils that come in a pot. Sheet foils typically cover your whole nail, while pot foils can be placed with tweezers in specific spots on your nails. The products that you use are virtually the same, but the application method is slightly different.
There are also stamped foils, which is foil that looks like an image, and foil strips, which look like decoupage.
Kitchen foil is not the same thing as nail foil. You can find nail foil at most drug stores or beauty supply stores, and they come in a variety of fun colors and patterns.
1-2. What should I use—glue, no glue, or gel?
The main difference is how much coverage you want your nail foil to give you. If you don’t use any glue at all, the foil will still stick to your nails, but it might be slightly spottier. If you use glue, you can get closer to full coverage, but still not a totally covered nail. If you use gel, you can cover your entire nail in foils if you’d like to. Plus, gel nail foil goes on a little smoother.
Nail foil glue is different from typical nail glue. It’s thinner and slightly less tacky, so it dries faster. You can find nail foil glue at most drug stores or beauty supply stores.
1-3. How do I prepare my nails for nail foils?
Remove all of your old polish with nail polish remover, then push back your cuticles. Apply a clear base coat and wait for it to dry, then pick out a nail polish that matches the color of the foil you’ll be using.
1-4. Do I need to apply a top coat to seal my nails?
Yes, a top coat is very important—without it, your nail foils might not stay on. You can use a regular clear nail polish top coat, or you can go for a gel one for longer lasting coverage. Whichever top coat you choose, it’s important to swipe it over the edges of your nails, too. That way, the foil won’t peel up at the edges.
Shellac top coat is the same as a gel top coat, they’re just different names.
1-5. How long do nail foils last?
Typically, only a few days. Since nail foils are so thin, they tend to peel off your fingers after only a few days. Professionals generally recommend that you save nail foils for special events or photo shoots so you can get the most out of your nails while they last.
1-6. How do I remove nail foils?
Soak your nails in pure acetone, and the foils will come right off. Removing nail foils is pretty much exactly like removing nail polish, so there’s no special procedure. They’ll slide right off your nails, and you can get ready for your next nail polish look!
1-7. What challenges do nail foils present?
Nail foils can sometimes have a steep learning curve, and you may need to do some trial and error before getting them right. Make sure you place your foils precisely on each nail to avoid any crinkling or tearing of the sheet. With most foil, less is more—overdoing it can make your foil flake off faster.
2. With Glue
2-1. Apply your base coat of polish and let it dry.
You can pick any nail polish color you’d like—even a clear coat will do! Apply it all over your nails, then let it dry completely. If you have a UV nail dryer, use that to speed up the drying process.
If you don’t have a nail dryer, that’s fine, too. Try using fast-drying nail polish to make your application a little faster.
If you use a gel polish, use rubbing alcohol to take off the top sticky layer of your polish. Otherwise, the nail adhesive won’t work.
2-2. Swipe on some nail foil adhesive.
Grab your bottle of nail foil glue and gently swipe on a thin layer all over your nails. Nail foil glue dries clear, so you won’t be able to see it on your top coat. Give the adhesive a couple of minutes to dry before you move on.
2-3. Press a piece of foil onto your nails.
If you’re using a nail foil sheet, grab a sheet and press the matte side (not the shiny side) onto your nail. When you pick it up, some of the foil will adhere to your nail, and you can add more or move onto the next nail.
In general, nail foil in a sheet will provide almost full coverage, but not quite.
2-4. Use tweezers to apply pot nail foil.
If you’re grabbing nail foils out of a small pot, use tweezers to pick up one piece at a time and place them on your nails. Go slowly, and don’t be afraid to move the foil around until it looks perfect. Once you’re satisfied with one nail, you can move onto the next nail.
You can also cut up large pieces of sheet foil and use tweezers to apply smaller pieces.
2-5. Apply a few layers of top coat.
Once you’re satisfied with your nail foils, simply grab a bottle of clear top coat and apply a thin layer to all of your nails. Be sure to apply the top coat to the top edge of your nails, too—otherwise, the foils might peel up.
3. Without Glue
3-1. Apply a thin layer of a base coat and let it dry.
You can use a colored nail polish or a clear one, depending on the look you’re going for. Add a base coat all over your nails, then let it dry. If you need to, you can add a second layer of polish for more coverage—just make sure it dries first before you add nail foils.
Using clear polish is a great way to make your nail foils stand out.
Black nail polish is also a great neutral option, and it makes bright colors pop!
3-2. Press the foil onto your nails.
Grab your nail foil sheet and gently press the matte side onto your nails. Lift the sheet up to reveal the foil on your nail polish. If you’d like to, you can press the sheet onto the same nail again for more coverage. Once you’re satisfied with your nail, you can move onto the rest of your hand.
Nail foil will stick to your nail polish, but it might cover slightly less of your nail than if you use a glue or a gel. If you’d like a full coverage look, pick up a bottle of nail glue or nail gel.
If you’re using small pieces of nail foil that you pick up with tweezers, you’ll need to use nail glue or gel to make them stick.
3-3. Apply a top coat.
When you’re happy with your nail foil look, grab a clear top coat and swipe it all over your nails. Be sure to apply it on the top edge of your nails, too, so the foils don’t peel up. In general, nail foils will last for a couple of days on your fingers, but they might peel off slightly faster without a glue or a gel.
4. Gel
4-1. Apply a base coat of nail polish and let it dry.
You can use a gel nail polish or a regular nail polish. Pick out the color that you’d like to have behind your nail foil, then apply it to all your nails. Wait a couple of minutes for your nail polish to dry before you move on.
4-2. Swipe on a thin layer of nail gel, then let it dry.
Nail foil gel is slightly different from nail glue—it’s slightly thicker and a bit stickier. Add a thin layer to all of your nails, then wait a couple of minutes for it to dry.
Nail foil gel is called “foil gel.” It will say that somewhere on the bottle, and you can find it at most beauty supply stores.
If your foil gel says “UV” on it, you’ll need to cure it under a UV light. Otherwise, you can just let it air dry.
4-3. Press the foil onto your nails and smooth it down.
While the adhesive is slightly different, the nail foil application is the same. Grab your sheet of nail foil and gently press it onto your nails. Lift the foil up to reveal the color left on your nails. If you’d like to, you can add more foil to your nail, or you can move on to the rest of your hand.
Gel adhesive provides a lot more coverage than using glue. You can cover your entire nail in nail foil if you’d like to.
Gel adhesive works best for sheet nail foils, not small pieces that you pick up with tweezers.
4-4. Apply a clear top coat.
Protect your nail foil with a clear top coat. You can stick with the gel theme by using a gel top coat, or you can use regular clear polish. Swipe it onto your nails to cover the nail foil and protect it.
5. Foil Strips
5-1. Cut your foil sheet into thin strips.
You can make cute vertical stripes on your nails by cutting your foil into pieces. Grab a pair of scissors and snip your foil into thin strips, about ⁄4 in (0.64 cm) wide. If you want to cover all your nails, keep cutting until you have enough for all 10 fingers.
You can make your strips as wide or as thin as you’d like. The thinner they are, the more you’ll be able to fit on one nail.
5-2. Apply your base nail polish color and let it dry.
For a more full coverage look, pick a color that’s similar to the color of the nail foil strips you’ll be using. Add a couple of coats on each nail for a good amount of coverage, then let the polish dry completely.
5-3. Add a thin layer of nail gel onto your nails.
Foil strips adhere best to nail gel, not nail glue. Add a layer to the nail you’re working on, but don’t let it dry completely. Try to work with your foil strips while the gel is still tacky.
5-4. Apply the nail strips while the nail gel is still wet.
Grab a strip of foil with a pair of tweezers and gently lay it on your nail vertically. Keep adding strips of foil until you’ve covered your entire nail. Let the nail foil sit on your nail for about 1 minute to set.
The nail foil will stick off your nail a little bit right now, which is fine.
5-5. Use tweezers to pull the foil off your nails.
Get your tweezers again and gently grab one strip of foil. Peel it off slowly to reveal the nail foil on your nails underneath. Pull off the rest of the foils to check out your new nail design!
5-6. Seal your nails with a top coat.
You can use a normal clear nail polish or a gel top coat. Be sure to seal the edge of your nail, too, so the nail foils don’t peel off. Once you’re done with one nail, you can move on to the rest of your fingers.

File and buff your nails beforehand for a picture-perfect manicure.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Nail Foil FAQs\\n1-1. What are nail foils?\\nThere are 2 main types of nail foils: the foils that come in a sheet and the foils that come in a pot. Sheet foils typically cover your whole nail, while pot foils can be placed with tweezers in specific spots on your nails. The products that you use are virtually the same, but the application method is slightly different.\\nThere are also stamped foils, which is foil that looks like an image, and foil strips, which look like decoupage.\\nKitchen foil is not the same thing as nail foil. You can find nail foil at most drug stores or beauty supply stores, and they come in a variety of fun colors and patterns.\\n1-2. What should I use—glue, no glue, or gel?\\nThe main difference is how much coverage you want your nail foil to give you. If you don’t use any glue at all, the foil will still stick to your nails, but it might be slightly spottier. If you use glue, you can get closer to full coverage, but still not a totally covered nail. If you use gel, you can cover your entire nail in foils if you’d like to. Plus, gel nail foil goes on a little smoother.\\nNail foil glue is different from typical nail glue. It’s thinner and slightly less tacky, so it dries faster. You can find nail foil glue at most drug stores or beauty supply stores.\\n1-3. How do I prepare my nails for nail foils?\\nRemove all of your old polish with nail polish remover, then push back your cuticles. Apply a clear base coat and wait for it to dry, then pick out a nail polish that matches the color of the foil you’ll be using.\\n1-4. Do I need to apply a top coat to seal my nails?\\nYes, a top coat is very important—without it, your nail foils might not stay on. You can use a regular clear nail polish top coat, or you can go for a gel one for longer lasting coverage. Whichever top coat you choose, it’s important to swipe it over the edges of your nails, too. That way, the foil won’t peel up at the edges.\\nShellac top coat is the same as a gel top coat, they’re just different names.\\n1-5. How long do nail foils last?\\nTypically, only a few days. Since nail foils are so thin, they tend to peel off your fingers after only a few days. Professionals generally recommend that you save nail foils for special events or photo shoots so you can get the most out of your nails while they last.\\n1-6. How do I remove nail foils?\\nSoak your nails in pure acetone, and the foils will come right off. Removing nail foils is pretty much exactly like removing nail polish, so there’s no special procedure. They’ll slide right off your nails, and you can get ready for your next nail polish look!\\n1-7. What challenges do nail foils present?\\nNail foils can sometimes have a steep learning curve, and you may need to do some trial and error before getting them right. Make sure you place your foils precisely on each nail to avoid any crinkling or tearing of the sheet. With most foil, less is more—overdoing it can make your foil flake off faster.\\n2. With Glue\\n2-1. Apply your base coat of polish and let it dry.\\nYou can pick any nail polish color you’d like—even a clear coat will do! Apply it all over your nails, then let it dry completely. If you have a UV nail dryer, use that to speed up the drying process.\\nIf you don’t have a nail dryer, that’s fine, too. Try using fast-drying nail polish to make your application a little faster.\\nIf you use a gel polish, use rubbing alcohol to take off the top sticky layer of your polish. Otherwise, the nail adhesive won’t work.\\n2-2. Swipe on some nail foil adhesive.\\nGrab your bottle of nail foil glue and gently swipe on a thin layer all over your nails. Nail foil glue dries clear, so you won’t be able to see it on your top coat. Give the adhesive a couple of minutes to dry before you move on.\\n2-3. Press a piece of foil onto your nails.\\nIf you’re using a nail foil sheet, grab a sheet and press the matte side (not the shiny side) onto your nail. When you pick it up, some of the foil will adhere to your nail, and you can add more or move onto the next nail.\\nIn general, nail foil in a sheet will provide almost full coverage, but not quite.\\n2-4. Use tweezers to apply pot nail foil.\\nIf you’re grabbing nail foils out of a small pot, use tweezers to pick up one piece at a time and place them on your nails. Go slowly, and don’t be afraid to move the foil around until it looks perfect. Once you’re satisfied with one nail, you can move onto the next nail.\\nYou can also cut up large pieces of sheet foil and use tweezers to apply smaller pieces.\\n2-5. Apply a few layers of top coat.\\nOnce you’re satisfied with your nail foils, simply grab a bottle of clear top coat and apply a thin layer to all of your nails. Be sure to apply the top coat to the top edge of your nails, too—otherwise, the foils might peel up.\\n3. Without Glue\\n3-1. Apply a thin layer of a base coat and let it dry.\\nYou can use a colored nail polish or a clear one, depending on the look you’re going for. Add a base coat all over your nails, then let it dry. If you need to, you can add a second layer of polish for more coverage—just make sure it dries first before you add nail foils.\\nUsing clear polish is a great way to make your nail foils stand out.\\nBlack nail polish is also a great neutral option, and it makes bright colors pop!\\n3-2. Press the foil onto your nails.\\nGrab your nail foil sheet and gently press the matte side onto your nails. Lift the sheet up to reveal the foil on your nail polish. If you’d like to, you can press the sheet onto the same nail again for more coverage. Once you’re satisfied with your nail, you can move onto the rest of your hand.\\nNail foil will stick to your nail polish, but it might cover slightly less of your nail than if you use a glue or a gel.

2,042 | How to Apply Nail Polish Neatly | 1. Preparing Your Nails for Polish
1-1. Remove old polish from your nails.
In order to produce a neat and even manicure, you must first remove any old polish from your nails. Acetone nail polish removers dry out your nail, and cuticle. If possible, use a non-acetone nail polish remover over an acetone nail polish remover.
Place a cotton swab or ball over the opening of your nail polish remover. Make sure it is completely covering the opening of the bottle.
Tip the bottle upside down and wait a few seconds for the cotton swab or ball to become saturated with the remover.
Rub the saturated cotton swab or ball over your nails to remove the polish.
Re-saturate your cotton swab or ball as needed.
1-2. Trim, file and smooth your nails.
After removing your old nail polish, devote some time to clipping, shaping and buffing your nails. Locate nail clippers, emery board and a gentle buffer.
Use the clippers to trim your nails, if needed.
Smooth the edges of your nails with an emery board nail file. File your nails into a round, square, or rounded-square shape.
Run over each nail with a slightly abrasive buffer to even out the surface of your nails.
1-3. Soak your hands in warm water.
Once your nails are clipped, shaped, and buffed, take a moment to relax and pamper yourself. Retrieve a basin and fill it with warm water and a squirt of your gentle facial cleanser. Use a gentle body scrub to exfoliate your hands before soaking them. Submerge your hands in the warm, soapy water to remove the body scrub. Soak your hands for three minutes. Remove your hands from the basin and dry them on a clean towel.
After soaking your hands, your cuticles will be soft and easier to push back.
1-4. Push back your cuticles.
Do not do this if it starts really hurting as this could cause them to bleed. It might hurt just a little whilst you do it if you haven't done it for a while. Cuticles are a part of your skin. They protect your nail matrix, the portion of the nail that grows, from infection. Cutting your cuticles leaves your nail matrix open to infections. It can also cause deformities in the nail, such as ridges and discoloration. Instead of cutting your cuticles, push them back to give your nail an oval appearance. It also makes it easier to create a neat polish line.
Use a cuticle pusher to carefully push the cuticle back towards your nail bed.
Push in the sides of the cuticle as well.
Remove any dry or damaged skin.
Repeat on the rest of your nails.
1-5. Moisturize your cuticles and skin.
After exfoliating your hands, it is important to rehydrate and moisturize your soft skin. Select a thick and luxurious hand cream or lotion. Massage this cream or lotion into your hands. Or, apply some almond oil (usually comes in a pen or a nail varnish type pot) or some clearly labeled cuticle oil and apply to your cuticles. This hydrates them and the remaining white half-dead skin will properly get dealt with.
1-6. Remove oil and grease from your nails.
If left on your nails, the oils from your hand cream or lotion will shorten the life of your polish. You can remove these oils from your fingernails with rubbing alcohol and a cotton swab or ball.
Place a cotton swab or ball over the opening of the rubbing alcohol bottle.
Tip the bottle upside down and wait a moment for the cotton swab or ball to become saturated with the rubbing alcohol. Place the bottom of the bottle on a flat surface.
Swipe the rubbing alcohol-saturated cotton swab or ball over your nails to remove the oil.
Repeat as needed.
2. Using Different Tricks to Keep Your Nail Polish Neat
2-1. Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly around each nail before painting your nails.
Before painting your nails, you can take measures to prevent the polish from drying outside the lines of your nails. You can achieve a perfectly neat mani every time by placing a thin layer of petroleum jelly around the edge of your nail. The oil from the vaseline will serve as a barrier between your skin and the nail polish.
Dab a cotton bud into a jar of petroleum jelly. If you don’t have vaseline, you can use lotion.
Swipe the cotton bud around the edges of each nail—keep the cotton bud and petroleum jelly on your skin. Do not let either touch your nail.
Pick out your polish and get ready to paint your nails.
2-2. Apply a thin coat of white school glue around each nail prior to polishing your nails.
If you struggle to paint inside the lines of your nails, you can take steps to ensure a swift and neat clean-up. Apply a thin coat of white school glue around the edge of your nails to create a neat, crisp polish line. The glue will protect your skin from the polish.
Dip a cotton bud or brush into a bottle of white school glue.
Use the cotton bud or brush to paint a thin, even layer of white school glue around the edge of each of your nails. Do your best to keep the glue off your nails.
Wait for the glue to dry before you polish your nails.
2-3. Wait to clean up your nail polish line.
As you continue to improve at painting your nails, you may have less errant nail polish to remove from your skin. Instead of applying a thin coat of petroleum jelly or white school glue, you may choose to clean up your nail polish lines after you’ve finished applying your polish and top coat. You can perfect your polish line with an old makeup brush and nail polish remover. This method requires a steady, practiced hand and patience.
You may also use a clean cotton-bud dipped in nail polish remover.
3. Painting and Drying Your Nails
3-1. Apply a base coat to each nail and wait for it to dry.
Base coats strengthen and protect your nails. This first layer of your manicure also extends the life of your polish. Coat each nail in a thin, even layer of base coat. Allow the base coat to dry.
Swipe the brush on the inside of the bottle’s opening to remove excess base coat from the brush.
While you should always use a base coat, it is especially important to use this product if your nails frequently chip, split, or peel. The base coat will help to fortify your nails.
3-2. Apply the first thin coat of polish in three strokes and allow it to dry.
In order to achieve a nice, neat, and even manicure, apply one to three thin layers of polish. You can control the thickness of each coat by only leaving enough polish on your brush to cover one nail. Remove excess polish from your brush by sliding your brush up the inside of the bottle’s opening from base to tip. Once you have just enough polish on your brush, apply the paint in three strokes
Place a small dab of polish at the base of your nail above your cuticle. (This prevents the polish from pooling.)
Use the brush to pull the dab of polish down towards the cuticle—do your best to leave a small gap of nail between the polish and your cuticle.
Swipe the brush in a straight line from the base to the tip of your nail.
Return the brush to the base of your nail. Move the brush upwards along the left curve of your nail until the entire side is coated in polish.
Return the brush to the base of your nail. Move the brush upwards along the right curve of your nail until the entire side is coated in polish.
Repeat this process on each nail.
Allow the polish to dry before adding another coat.
3-3. Apply a second and/or third thin coat of polish in three strokes and let it dry.
As your first coat dries, determine if you need to add a second layer of polish. If your polish is sheer, you may want to add two or more coats; if your polish is opaque, you may not need to add a second and/or third coat. Once your first coat of polish is dry, apply a second coat of polish if desired.
Put a small dot of nail polish at the base of your nail just above your cuticle.
Pull the dot of polish down towards the cuticle with the brush—try to leave a small gap of nail between the polish and your cuticle.
Pull the brush in a straight line from the base to the tip of your nail.
Place the brush at the base of your nail. Swipe the brush along the left curve of your nail until the entire side is coated in polish.

Repeat this process on each nail.
Allow the polish to dry before adding a third coat or applying a top coat.
3-4. Apply an even layer of top coat to each nail and wait for it to dry.
Top coat adds a brilliant shine to your polished fingers. Once your nails are completely dry, apply a thin layer of top coat to each nail. If possible, apply a quick-drying top coat to your nails.
Soak your fingernails in ice water to help your polish cure faster.
4. Cleaning Up Your Polished Nails
4-1. Use a cotton-bud to remove the petroleum jelly from around each nail.
If you applied a thin coat of petroleum jelly around the edge of your nails, allow your nails to dry completely before you remove the substance. Once the top coat is dry, trace the edges of your nails with a clean cotton-bud. As you remove the petroleum jelly from your skin, you will also wipe away any polish sitting on top of the oily substance.
4-2. Peel off the thin coat of glue and excess nail polish from around each nail.
When your nails are dry, carefully remove the thin layer of dried white school glue from your skin. As you peel away the dried glue, you will also remove any polish that is outside of your nail polish line. Once removed, you will be left with a neat and crisp nail polish line.
4-3. Clean up excess polish with an old makeup brush and nail polish remover.
After painting your nails, you can carefully remove any excess polish with an old makeup brush dipped in nail polish remover. In addition to a brush a remover, you will also need a cotton swab or ball. When you’re done touching up your nail polish lines, you’ll be left with a pristine manicure.
Pour out a small amount of nail polish remover into a dish or the bottle’s cap.
Dip your brush into the remover and then blot it on a clean cotton swab or ball.
Position the brush next to your untidy nail polish line.
Without applying any pressure, sweep the brush along your nail polish line. Repeat on each nail polish line.
Use the brush to remove nail polish that dried on your skin.
Dip your brush in the remover and wipe your it off on the cotton swab or ball as needed.
Tips
Before you apply nail polish to your nails, make sure you apply a base coat to prevent getting your nails stained from the nail polish.
If you have flaked nails, try to go neatly and slowly over the flaked parts.
If you can't do it right the first time, keep trying and you'll soon get better before you know it.

Locate nail clippers, emery board and a gentle buffer.\\nUse the clippers to trim your nails, if needed.\\nSmooth the edges of your nails with an emery board nail file. File your nails into a round, square, or rounded-square shape.\\nRun over each nail with a slightly abrasive buffer to even out the surface of your nails.\\n1-3. Soak your hands in warm water.\\nOnce your nails are clipped, shaped, and buffed, take a moment to relax and pamper yourself. Retrieve a basin and fill it with warm water and a squirt of your gentle facial cleanser. Use a gentle body scrub to exfoliate your hands before soaking them. Submerge your hands in the warm, soapy water to remove the body scrub. Soak your hands for three minutes. Remove your hands from the basin and dry them on a clean towel.\\nAfter soaking your hands, your cuticles will be soft and easier to push back.\\n1-4. Push back your cuticles.\\nDo not do this if it starts really hurting as this could cause them to bleed. It might hurt just a little whilst you do it if you haven't done it for a while. Cuticles are a part of your skin. They protect your nail matrix, the portion of the nail that grows, from infection. Cutting your cuticles leaves your nail matrix open to infections. It can also cause deformities in the nail, such as ridges and discoloration. Instead of cutting your cuticles, push them back to give your nail an oval appearance.

Moisturize your cuticles and skin.\\nAfter exfoliating your hands, it is important to rehydrate and moisturize your soft skin. Select a thick and luxurious hand cream or lotion. Massage this cream or lotion into your hands. Or, apply some almond oil (usually comes in a pen or a nail varnish type pot) or some clearly labeled cuticle oil and apply to your cuticles. This hydrates them and the remaining white half-dead skin will properly get dealt with.\\n1-6.

Apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly around each nail before painting your nails.\\nBefore painting your nails, you can take measures to prevent the polish from drying outside the lines of your nails.

The oil from the vaseline will serve as a barrier between your skin and the nail polish.\\nDab a cotton bud into a jar of petroleum jelly. If you don’t have vaseline, you can use lotion.\\nSwipe the cotton bud around the edges of each nail—keep the cotton bud and petroleum jelly on your skin. Do not let either touch your nail.\\nPick out your polish and get ready to paint your nails.\\n2-2. Apply a thin coat of white school glue around each nail prior to polishing your nails.\\nIf you struggle to paint inside the lines of your nails, you can take steps to ensure a swift and neat clean-up. Apply a thin coat of white school glue around the edge of your nails to create a neat, crisp polish line. The glue will protect your skin from the polish.\\nDip a cotton bud or brush into a bottle of white school glue.\\nUse the cotton bud or brush to paint a thin, even layer of white school glue around the edge of each of your nails.

Wait to clean up your nail polish line.\\nAs you continue to improve at painting your nails, you may have less errant nail polish to remove from your skin. Instead of applying a thin coat of petroleum jelly or white school glue, you may choose to clean up your nail polish lines after you’ve finished applying your polish and top coat. You can perfect your polish line with an old makeup brush and nail polish remover. This method requires a steady, practiced hand and patience. \\nYou may also use a clean cotton-bud dipped in nail polish remover.\\n3. Painting and Drying Your Nails\\n3-1.

2,043 | How to Apply Nail Tattoos | 1. Applying Water Slide Tattoos
1-1. Apply a base coat and nail polish.
Brush on a clear base coat. Once it's fully dry, brush on at least one to two coats of nail polish – allowing it to dry between coats – until you achieve satisfactory coverage.
Because the edges of temporary tattoos often have a translucent, filmy border, opt for white or light-colored polish. This will also make a canvas for good contrast with your tattoos.
Some water slide tattoos made for nails can be used with any color.
1-2. Cut the tattoos with small scissors to fit on your nails.
Try using sewing scissors or nail scissors; a curved blade will work well. Pick the pieces of the tattoos you like best, and make sure each piece will fit on one of your nails without any overlap. At least part of your nail plate should show around each tattoo piece.
Choose tattoos with dark or colored shades and/or details, to contrast with your nail lacquer.
You don't need to cut perfectly around the tattoo: you can cut small squares that fit onto your nails.
Wait until your nails are fully dried before doing this step, so that you don't accidentally smudge your polish.
1-3. Wet the tattoo face-down on your nail.
Remove the plastic sheet from the tattoo. Place the tattoo so that it touches your nail only, not your skin. Use a wet cotton swab, paper towel, or cloth to dampen the back of the tattoo.
It's fine for the tattoo to hang over the free edge of your nail.
Some water slide tattoos for nails require you to soak them first for five to ten seconds each. You can remove tattoos from a bowl of water with tweezers, after soaking them.
1-4. Hold the damp cloth against your nail for 30 seconds.
Press down firmly and evenly. If the tattoo has instructions that recommend holding the moist tattoo for a longer amount of time, follow those instructions. Avoid dabbing or moving the tattoo while it sets.
1-5. Remove any excess, if needed.
If the tattoo overlaps the edge of your nail, snip it off with scissors. For a look that lasts longer, apply a topcoat.
If you're applying a topcoat, try dabbing a tiny bit of top coat onto one of the tattoos first, to make sure it doesn't smudge.
2. Applying Nail Stickers
2-1. Clean your nails.
Use a cotton pad with nail polish remover or rubbing alcohol to clean on and around your nails. Don't apply a base coat for this look – it can prevent nail stickers from properly adhering.
2-2. Prepare the nail sticker.
Find a sticker that is the closest match to the size of your nail. If you can't find a sticker that matches the size of a nail well, choose a sticker that's larger than your nail. Then trim it down with small scissors to fit the nail. Rub the sticker in your hands to warm it up a bit – this can improve its flexibility and longevity.
2-3. Apply the nail sticker.
Remove the backing from the strip. Place the sticker on your nail plate, close to – but not overlapping – your cuticle. Smooth the sticker down from your nail bed to the tip.
2-4. Use a blow dryer on the nail for several seconds.
Use the warm setting on your blow dryer. If your blow dryer runs quite hot at close range, hold it back far enough that it doesn't hurt your skin.
Heat helps nail stickers smoothly adhere to the nails.
2-5. File off any excess decal.
Hold a large-grit file perpendicular to the nail. File the nail downward to detach excess strip from the free edge of your nail. Start out with a rough file, and finish up with a finer grit.
Try using a glass file to smooth the edges once you've removed excess stickers.
2-6. Maintain your nail tattoos.
You can add a top coat for gloss, if desired, but it isn't needed for longevity. Treat your nails gently, avoiding pressure and moisture. Avoid using lotion or oil-based products on your nails, which can cause separation of the stickers. Keep your nails away from heat, unless a decal starts to come off. If so, use a blow drier on your nail as you smooth the sticker back down.
For example, wear gloves to protect your nails when doing dishes or other wet or messy tasks.

Rub the sticker in your hands to warm it up a bit – this can improve its flexibility and longevity.\\n2-3. Apply the nail sticker.\\nRemove the backing from the strip. Place the sticker on your nail plate, close to – but not overlapping – your cuticle. Smooth the sticker down from your nail bed to the tip.\\n2-4.

If your blow dryer runs quite hot at close range, hold it back far enough that it doesn't hurt your skin.\\nHeat helps nail stickers smoothly adhere to the nails.\\n2-5. File off any excess decal.\\nHold a large-grit file perpendicular to the nail. File the nail downward to detach excess strip from the free edge of your nail. Start out with a rough file, and finish up with a finer grit.\\nTry using a glass file to smooth the edges once you've removed excess stickers.\\n2-6. Maintain your nail tattoos.\\nYou can add a top coat for gloss, if desired, but it isn't needed for longevity. Treat your nails gently, avoiding pressure and moisture. Avoid using lotion or oil-based products on your nails, which can cause separation of the stickers. Keep your nails away from heat, unless a decal starts to come off. If so, use a blow drier on your nail as you smooth the sticker back down.\\nFor example, wear gloves to protect your nails when doing dishes or other wet or messy tasks.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"You can get the look of nail tattoos using water slide temporary tattoos, whether they are made specifically for nail art or not.

2,044 | How to Apply Nail Tips | 1. Applying the Nail Tip
1-1. Gather your materials.
Anyone can apply nail tips at home, but you will need to have some special materials before you get started. To apply nail tips to your natural nails, you will need:
Nail tips
Nail adhesive gel
Nail clipper
Nail file
1-2. Follow the safety instructions included with your nail tips.
Your nail tips and nail adhesive should come with some instructions for proper use and safety. Read these instructions carefully and follow any safety precautions for the product.
For example, some nail products recommend working in a well-ventilated area.
1-3. Choose your nail tip size.
Look through the nail tips and find one that matches each of your nails. The nail tips should be wide enough to cover your nail, but not so wide that they are overlapping the edges of your nails.
Hold up multiple tips to each nail to find the best fit and then lay them out in the order that you will need them.
1-4. Brush a layer of topcoat onto your natural nails.
Nail adhesive can wreck your nails, but applying a top coat before you apply the nail tips may help to protect them. However, keep in mind that the nail tips may not bond as tightly with your natural nails.
If you are concerned about the health of your natural nails, apply a layer or two of clear topcoat before you apply the nails.
1-5. Apply the adhesive gel.
Most nail tip sets include some adhesive gel with the nails, but if you can also buy nail adhesive separately. Pick up one of the nail tips by the end and apply a line of adhesive gel to the indented area of the tip.
If the nail does not have an indented area, then just apply the adhesive gel along the curved edge of the nail. This is the edge that will need to overlap the end of your natural nail.
Keep in mind that nail adhesive gel bonds quickly and it is quite strong. Make sure that you have the right nail before you press it onto your finger.
If you make a mistake, apply some nail polish remover that contains acetone to the edge of the nail tip. This will help loosen it so that you can remove the nail tip and start over.
1-6. Press on the nail.
Press the nail tip against your natural nail to ensure that the adhesive bonds tightly with your nail. If the nail tip has an indent in it, then you will need to push the nail back so that the edge meets up with the end of your natural nail. If there is no indentation, then just apply the nail tip about ¼ inch from the end of your nail.
Press on the nail for about five seconds to give the adhesive gel a chance to bond.
Repeat this for all of your nails.
2. Trimming and Shaping the Nail
2-1. Trim the nail.
Nail tips are quite long, so you will probably want to trim them down a little before you shape them. Use clippers or a pair of nail scissors to trim the nail down to your desired length.
Make sure that you cut straight across. This is especially important if you want square tipped nails.
If you want almond or stiletto tipped nails, then you can also cut off part of the sides of the nails.
Try cutting a little less than you think you will need to cut. Filing your nails will also shorten them slightly, so you may end up with shorter nails than you’d like if you cut too much.
2-2. Bend the nail on the sides.
The nail tips may be a bit stiff and straight looking, which can look unnatural. To give them more curve and enhance their appearance, you can press gently on the edges of the nails as if you are trying to bend the sides of the nails together.
Place your index finger and thumb on either side of a nail and squeeze gently a few times.
Repeat this for all of the nail tips.
2-3. Shape the nail
After you are finished trimming and bending the nails into a pleasing curve, you will need to shape your nail tips. Use a file to shape your nails into your desired shape. Some popular nail shapes include:
Square
Almond
Oval
Round
Stiletto
2-4. Paint the nails
When you have achieve the shape that you want, you can paint your nails as desired. Choose your color or colors and any special designs you want to add.
For example, you could try doing a French manicure, tie dye nails, or a try 3D design.

2,045 | How to Apply Nail Wraps | 1. Getting Your Nails Ready and Applying the Strips
1-1. Remove any nail polish.
It is important to remove any old nail polish before you apply your nail wraps. Use some nail polish remover to take off your old nail polish. Even if you do not have any nail polish on, you might want to swipe each of your nails with a little nail polish remover to ensure that they are totally clean.
You can also wash your hands and nails to ensure that they are free of grease and dirt.
1-2. Trim and buff your nails.
Next, you will need to trim your nails to your desired length. If they are already at the length that you’d like them to be, then just take a minute to even them out by shaping them with a nail file. Buff the tops of your nails with a nail buffer as well to ensure that they are smooth and even.
It is important to get the surface of your nails really smooth or they may not look right.
If you have dry, brittle nails, then you might also want to apply a layer or two of strengthening top coat before you apply the wraps. Otherwise, the adhesive might damage your nails.
1-3. Choose a strip that matches your nail size.
Hold the strips up next to your nails to determine where the best placement for each strip would be. Try to select a strip for each nail that will fully cover the nail and line up with the cuticle. It may not be possible to find a perfect fit for every nail, but do the best you can.
Don’t worry about choosing the strip that is meant for a specific finger. Just go with the one that fits your finger best.
1-4. Heat the strip slightly with a hair dryer.
Some nail wraps are heat activated, so you will need to heat them up using a hair dryer. Turn on your hair dryer and set it to warm. Then, pick up one of your nail wraps and aim the hair dryer at it. Heat the nail wrap for about three to five seconds.
Not all nail wraps require heat to work. You might be able to just apply the wrap directly to your nail and smooth it out. Check the package instructions to be sure.
1-5. Apply the strip to your nails.
Use a cuticle pusher to apply the nail wrap and smooth it out on your nail. Make sure that there are no bumps and that the nail strip goes all the way to the edges of your nails. They should be lined up with your cuticles on all sides.
Try not to touch the adhesive layer with your fingertips as you apply it or some if it may come off.
2. Shaping and Shining the Nail Strip
2-1. Use the hair dryer again.
Applying heat to the nail wraps again will help them to adhere to your nails better. It will also give you a chance to smooth out any bumps in the nail wraps. Hold each nail under the hair dryer for about three to five seconds.
Use a cotton swab or an orange tipped cuticle pusher to smooth out any bumps after you apply heat for a few seconds.
2-2. Cut off excess nail strip material.
The nail wraps are quite long, so most people will have some excess material at the ends. Use some nail scissors or a nail clipper to cut this excess material off.
You do not have to cut it right along the nail, there can be a small amount of nail wrap material hanging over because you will be filing the ends as well.
If you have really short nails, then you might even find it easier to cut off some of the excess strip material before you apply the strips.
2-3. File the edges.
Next, use a glass file or emery board to file away the edges of the remaining excess nail strip material. File your nails from underneath the nail, not the top of the nail. This will help to prevent jagged edges.
2-4. Apply a coat of clear nail polish to the strip.
Finish off your nail wrap manicure by applying a coat of clear nail polish over the top of the nail wraps. You might even want to apply a couple of coats for an extra glossy look.
You can skip the clear nail polish if you like, but the nail wraps may have more of a matte look to them if you skip it.
3. Choosing and Using Nail Wraps
3-1. Go with a small design for shorter nails.
You can use any design you like, but shorter nails may not show a larger design as well. Therefore, you might want to stick with a small design or something that has a repetitive pattern on it, such as polka dots or stripes.
Try holding different designs up to your nails to get an idea of how much of your nails the strips will cover.
3-2. Try using a few different designs.
Nail wraps often come in prints and intricate designs. However, if you want to create an even more interesting look, then you could pick out a few different patterns in coordinating colors.
For example, you could use pick a few different black and white designs and alternate the designs so you have a different one on each nail. Or, for a holiday look, you could pick out some red nail wraps and some green ones and alternate those.
3-3. Make sure that you read the package instructions.
Different nail wrap brands have different specifications for application and removal. Always check the package instructions before applying or removing your nail wraps.
For example, some nail wraps can be removed by peeling them off with a cuticle pusher, while others require some acetone nail polish remover.
Ensure that you have everything you need to use the strips you purchase. For example, you might need a hairdryer, nail polish remover, and an orange tipped cuticle pusher to use some strips.
Tips
Keep in mind that nail wraps are not just for your fingernails. You can also use them to give yourself a stylish pedicure.

2,046 | How to Apply Natural Makeup for Brown Eyes | 1. Selecting Your Colors
1-1. Stick to earth tones and other natural shades.
Keep in mind that certain colors will look natural on some people while looking obvious on others. Stick to shades close to your skin, lip, and hair colors.
If your eyebrows and eyelashes are black or very dark brown, then black eyeliner and mascara will look natural on you. For red hair, try out auburn or brown mascaras to find one that suits you best. If your hair is blonde, taupe mascara can define your lashes while still looking natural. Use eyeliner sparingly if you have lighter hair, and consider experimenting with brown eyeliners.
Pick an eyeshadow that is either close to your skin tone or a few shades lighter as your base color. For fair to medium skin tones, this means whites, taupes, and light browns. Taupes and browns are also good choices for darker skin. Just stay away from white bases when going for a natural look, as these don't blend well on darker skin.
Select a second darker color for your shadow. These can be browns, taupes, and mauves.
Go a little lighter than your base for a highlighter. Pick a color that is the same hue as your skin but a little lighter than your base eyeshadow.
1-2. Avoid glitter and shimmer.
While skin can shine, it doesn't naturally glitter. Metallic eyeshadows like bronze and gold look wonderful with brown eyes but can ruin the illusion of a completely natural look.
If you want to incorporate metallic colors while still looking natural, do so sparingly and try to pick ones that blend well with your skin tone. For example, a slight splash of gold on the inner corners of your eyes can brighten them while still looking subtle on tan or olive skin.
Matte versions of metallic colors are another more natural-looking option.
1-3. Don't clash with your skin's undertone.
Your undertone may be rosy (also called cool), golden (also called warm), or neutral. For a natural look, you especially want to stick with hues with a matching undertone to keep your makeup from standing out.
If you have rosy undertones, eyeshadows with subtle pink, red, plum, and blue tinges can look natural.
For golden skin, eyeshadows with subtle peach, gold, or yellow tones will work for a natural look.
If your undertone is more neutral, then you likely have both rosy and golden undertones. This can make things tricky, since even though most colors will look good on your skin, it can be more difficult to tell what will seem natural. Try out a few different shades to figure out which look best under natural light.
2. Applying Your Eye Makeup
2-1. Brush your base color onto your entire lid.
Load an eyeshadow brush with your chosen base color. Tap the side of your brush to remove excess powder. With your eye closed, brush the color onto your entire lid using light strokes. It's ok if you go a little above your crease. Reload your brush as needed.
2-2. Add shadow along the outer part of your crease.
Load a small angled brush with your chosen shadow color. Tap your brush to remove excess powder. Starting from the outer corner of your eye, run the angled brush along your crease. Stop just before you reach the inner corner of your eye. Do this with one long stroke. The end result should be a highly pigmented outer corner and a gradient towards a much lighter inner corner.
2-3. Blend
Use a clean blending brush. Make small, circular "buffing" motions with the brush along the line where the two colors meet. Start from your inner corner and work your way across to the opposite side. Do this until the two eyeshadows have blended together seamlessly. Your eyelid should now look airbrushed and very close to how a shadow would natural fall.
2-4. Dab a small amount of highlighter under your eyebrow arch and at the inner corner of your eye.
Use a clean eyeshadow brush. Dot a tiny bit of your highlight color at the inner corner of your eye and directly under the point of your eyebrow's arch. Use a clean, preferably small, blending brush to blend your highlighter into the surrounding area.
2-5. Apply eyeliner.
Eyeliner will accentuate your beautiful brown eyes. However, eyeliner is the trickiest type of makeup to put on when you're going for a natural look. Which eyeliner styles look natural will depend on a combination of your eyelash color and your eyes' shade.
If your hair is light, consider minimal eyeliner. The easiest way to achieve this to make a very thin line across your upper lashline. For an even more subtle, natural look apply liner between each individual lash instead of drawing on a line.
If your hair is dark, you can use either a minimalist technique or a slightly thicker line. A thicker line will bring more attention to your brown eyes, but a thinner one will look more natural.
If both your eyes and hair are very dark, you can try a subtle winged or "cat eye" eyeliner in addition to any of the above methods. At the outer corner of your eye, continue your eyeliner slightly at an upward angle pointing to the end of your eyebrow. Match the thickness of this line to the rest of your eyeliner. Small wings will create the illusion of an extended lashline.
2-6. Brush on mascara.
Finishing your eye makeup will help your brown eyes look even more beautiful. However, like eyeliner, this is another step where it's easy to overdo it. If you're worried about looking too done up, consider skipping this step. Otherwise, go over your upper lashes just once or twice with the mascara color best suited to your look.
2-7. Finished.
Tips
It's ok to have a little shimmer in your highlight. Just make sure not to use too much.
Consider using an eye primer. This product will help your eyeshadow to better grip your skin, making it longer-lasting and easier to apply.
If your skin is very dark, then you can make bold colors like berry and brick red look natural. They may look too dramatic for everyday wear in a compact, but they will often actually appear subtle when on the skin.

2,047 | How to Apply Natural Makeup for School | 1. Applying Natural-Looking Face Makeup
1-1. Apply a lightweight foundation.
To even out your skin and cover mild discolorations, take a little liquid foundation and blend it in with your fingertips or a makeup sponge. For the most natural look, use a sheer, buildable foundation and apply it in thin layers until you get the coverage you want.
Make sure to use a foundation that matches your skin tone. You can check the tone by applying a little to your jawline.
Additionally, pick a foundation that works with your skin type. For example, if you have oily or breakout-prone skin, go for a foundation that’s oil-free and non-comedogenic (won’t clog your pores).
1-2. Use a little concealer to cover up blemishes and discolorations.
If you have any spots or blotches that the foundation doesn’t cover, apply a little concealer and blend it in. You can also swipe some concealer under your eyes to cover up dark circles.
When blending in concealer under your eyes, gently dab it with your fingers instead of rubbing. Rubbing can irritate your delicate under-eye skin.
1-3. Brush on some powder
If you have oily skin, applying a little translucent powder can help keep it under control and reduce shine throughout the day. Load some powder into a makeup brush, tap it to remove the excess, and sweep it all over your face.
Focus on the T-zone (the middle of your forehead, your nose, and your chin), since this area tends to get especially oily throughout the day.
1-4. Add color to your cheeks with a warm, subtle blush.
To bring a soft glow to your cheeks, apply a little blush along your cheekbones. Choose a warm pink or peach rather than a cool pink for a more natural look.
Cream blushes will give your cheeks a more dewy, natural appearance than powder blushes.
To apply a cream blush, use your fingers to gently dab a little color onto the fullest parts of your cheeks, blending it in until it looks like you're blushing naturally.
If you prefer powder blushes, use a brush to gently swirl the color onto the fullest parts of your cheeks.
1-5. Put on a subtle highlighter to help define your face.
You can also use a highlighter to define areas like the tops of your cheekbones, your forehead, and your nose. Use a brush to gently sweep the highlighter over the areas you’d like to bring out. You can also lightly tap it on with your fingertips.
Avoid using highlighters that are too glittery or shimmery. While these can give you a gorgeous, fairytale glow, it’s not the most natural look!
2. Bringing out Your Eyes and Lips
2-1. Brush your eyebrows, then fill them in with powder.
To get tidy-looking eyebrows that don’t look overdone, lightly groom them with an eyebrow brush. If you like, you can then fill them in very lightly with an eyebrow powder that matches your natural brow color.
Avoid using an eyebrow pencil, since this can make your eyebrows look too obviously defined and made-up.
2-2. Dust your lids with a neutral brown eyeshadow.
To bring out your eyelids, choose a brownish eyeshadow that’s only 1-2 shades darker than your natural skin color. Brush the shadow over your eyelids and along the crease below your brow bone. Blend it in carefully to create a smooth transition between the shadow and your natural skin tone.
If you like, you can also add a little subtle highlighter or eye brightener to the inner corners of your eyes and your brow bones.
2-3. Add a thin line of black eyeshadow to your upper lash line.
To subtly darken the base of your lashes, use a fine, angled brush to apply a little bit of black eyeshadow just along your upper lash line. For an even subtler look, skip the shadow. Take a dark brown or grey eyeliner pencil and lightly dot it along your upper lash line instead.
Don’t go beyond the edges of your lash line, and keep the line thin—otherwise, you will end up with a more dramatic, less natural look.
You can also subtly widen your eyes by adding a little nude liner to your lower waterline.
2-4. Define your lashes with a curler and a hint of mascara.
Use a curler to widen your eyes and give your lashes a more dramatic look. Then, sweep some mascara onto your upper lashes to darken and define them. Go for light, non-clumping formula for a more natural appearance.
Don’t put any mascara on your lower lash line, since this will make your eyes look more obviously made-up.
Choose a mascara that is not dramatically darker than your natural lashes. For example, if your lashes are blond, go with a brown mascara. For darker lashes, opt for brownish-black.
If you don’t have an eyelash curler, you can curl your lashes with a spoon, a cotton swab, or your fingers.
2-5. Brighten your lips with a tinted balm or a sheer, nude lipstick.
To add a finishing touch to your look, swipe on a little tinted balm in a color that matches your natural lips. Make it look more natural by dabbing it on with your fingers instead of applying from the tube. Start at the center of your lips and blend out to the edges. For a slightly bolder look, use a nude lipstick instead.
You can also use a colorless balm to give your lips a natural softness and shine without adding any tint.
Tips
Before wearing any makeup, review your school’s makeup rules. Even if your makeup looks super subtle, your school’s administration might take disciplinary action if you’re caught breaking the rules.

2,048 | How to Apply Neosporin | 1. Cleaning Your Wound
1-1. Wash your wound
Hold your wound under cool running water, or pour cool water overtop your wound. Use antibacterial soap and a clean washcloth to wash the area around your wound. You can also wash your wound with a homemade saline solution.
Soap may cause irritation, so be careful as you wash around your wound.
You can also clean your wound with alcohol or hydrogen peroxide. Check with your doctor before using these, as they may damage your skin.
1-2. Rinse and dry your wound thoroughly.
Make sure you rinse away all soap residue. You can either air dry your wound or pat it try with a towel or washcloth. Be gentle, as your wound may be sensitive.
1-3. Wash your hands
Using soap and water, clean your hands once your wound is washed. This will prevent the spread of any germs or bacteria. Also dry your hands after they are washed.
2. Treating with Neosporin
2-1. Double-check instructions on the label.
The Neosporin package will have information for particular cases, like what to do for children or when to see a doctor. Read over the instructions before you apply the Neosporin, so you are caring for your wound properly.
2-2. Squeeze a small amount of Neosporin out of the tube.
This will depend on the size of your wound, though strive for about the same amount of Neosporin for the size of your wound. You shouldn't need more than about the size of your fingertip.
Try to avoid using too much extra Neosporin. Using too much will oversaturate your wound and waste the Neosporin.
Avoid touching the tip of the Neosporin tube with your hands, wound, or other surfaces.
Put the cap back on the tube of Neosporin as soon as possible.
2-3. Use your finger or a cotton swab to apply Neosporin to your wound.
Gently rub an even layer over the entire affected area. You only need one thin layer each time you apply it.
2-4. Reapply Neosporin 1 to 3 times a day for no more than 7 days in a row.
Neosporin is not dangerous, though you don’t want to overdo it. If your wound is not healing after using Neosporin for a week, or if you start to see signs that your wound is infected, see your doctor for other treatment options.
3. Protecting Your Wound
3-1. Cover your wound with a bandage after you apply Neosporin.
This will protect the affected area from further injury or infection. You can also use sterile gauze and adhesive tape.
3-2. Change your bandage daily to keep your wound clean and dry.
Change your bandage at any time of the day that works for you, as long as your wound is freshened up once per day.
When you change your bandage, wash your wound and reapply Neosporin to keep your wound moist and clean.
3-3. Use larger bandages for serious wounds.
Large bandages are better to cover the size of bigger wounds. You can find them in drug stores or most grocery stores.
If you aren’t sure of what size bandage to use, ask your doctor.
3-4. Throw away expired Neosporin.
If you have Neosporin leftover beyond the expiration date, get rid of it. Expired Neosporin will not heal your wounds and may cause further infections.
Warnings
Read over the ingredients list to check for allergies. Do not use Neosporin if you are allergic to any ingredients, like bacitracin, neomycin, or polymyxin B.[15]
X
Research source
Stop using Neosporin and see your doctor if you develop a rash or allergic reaction.
Neosporin should not be used internally. It is for external use only.
If Neosporin is ingested, call Poison Control right away.
Don’t use Neosporin in your eyes.
Neosporin should not be used for serious, large, or deep wounds, like puncture wounds or animal bites.

2,049 | How to Apply Neulash | 1. Putting Neulash on Your Eyelashes
1-1. Wash off
Saturate a cotton pad with eye makeup remover, and gently run it over the top of your eyelashes. Then, take the pad and gently wipe in a downward motion to remove any makeup on your lower set of lashes.
If you don't have eye makeup remover, you can use baby shampoo as an alternative.
1-2. Make sure your eyelashes are completely dry before applying Neulash.
Pat down your eyelashes with a towel or dry washcloth. Once your eyelashes are completely dry, you can start applying the Neulash.
Don’t rub your lashes or you could pull them out.
1-3. Close your left eye and look into a mirror.
To ensure that you’re getting full coverage over your lashes, you’ll want to look into a mirror so you can see what you’re doing. Close your left eye so that you can see the area where your eyelid and eyelashes meet.
Avoid getting Neulash in your eyes because it burns.
1-4. Run the end of the Neulash pen over your eyelashes.
Aim for the area where your eyelashes and eyelids meet. Start from the inside of your eyelashes and slowly move the pen across to the other end of the lashes.
Try to go over your eyelashes in a single, smooth motion.
You can apply 2 coats to ensure that you have full coverage.
1-5. Repeat the process on your right eye.
Close your right eye and apply Neulash over the same area. At first, Neulash may give you a tickling sensation, but this usually goes away after a week.
It could take anywhere from 2-16 weeks for you to see substantial eyelash growth.
2. Getting the Best Results
2-1. Apply Neulash every night before bed.
For the best results, Neulash should be applied to your eyelashes every night for the first month of use. Then, in the second month, you can apply Neulash every other night.
Get in the habit of applying Neulash at the same time each night so that you don't forget to apply it.
2-2. Continue to use Neulash after you see results.
Once you use it for 3 months, you can reduce your usage to 2 times a week. Continued use of the Neulash will maintain the length and strength of your eyelashes.
If you don't notice any results after 3 months, it's possible that you're not applying the Neulash correctly or it may not work for you.
2-3. Rinse your eye out with water if you get Neulash in your eyes.
Try as hard as you can to avoid getting Neulash in your eye because it will burn and could affect your vision. If you do get Neulash in your eyes, rinse your eyes with cold water.
If you experience burning, a rash, or blurry vision after using the product, seek medical attention immediately.

2,050 | How to Apply Nude Eye Makeup | 1. Laying Down the Foundation
1-1. Select three colors.
You want three colors that are close to your natural skin color. They should form a gradient, moving from light to dark. The shades should be in the same basic color family. For example, if you pick grays as your shades, pick a white, a light gray, and a dark gray.
You want something close to your skin color. Remember, the point of a neutral look is to make it look as if your'e not wearing a lot of makeup, so you don't want to pick something too bright or gaudy.
1-2. Brush and define your brows.
You should start by filling in your brows with a light dark or gray brow pencil. Pick a color that matches your regular eyebrow shade You don't want to do too much outlining or coloring here. You want it to look minimal.
Start by brushing out your brows with a clean eyebrow brush. Run the brush through either brow, using quick swiping gestures, to fill in any patches in your eyebrow hair.
If there are still parts of your brows that are patchy, fill these in with your eyebrow pencil. Fill them in sparingly, however. You don't want to make your eyebrows look too dark or defined. Only fill in bald spots or areas where your hair is thin. Always move your brow brush in the natural direction of your eyebrow hair.
1-3. Apply primer and base to your lids.
You should always dab your eyes with a solid primer before you begin any eye makeup routine. Primer will help your makeup look defined and will minimize discoloration. You can dab primer onto your eyelids with your fingers. Then, gently dab the primer into your skin.
Wash your hands before applying primer.
If you don't have primer, you can use concealer instead. It should produce the same effect, as long as your'e using a concealer with a thicker consistency.
2. Applying Eye Shadow
2-1. Dust your crease with the second lightest color.
Choose the color that falls in the middle of your color gradient. Use a larger eye shadow brush to dust your crease lightly with that color. This will provide a transition between the darker and lighter shades you apply throughout your eyelid
If you're unfamiliar with doing makeup, the crease is the area between the uppermost part of your eyelid and your brow bone.
Use gentle, circular motions to apply the eye shadow to your eyelid.
2-2. Add the lightest color on the outer lid.
The outer lid is the corner of your eyelid closer to your temples. Use a corner brush to apply your second lightest shade to your outer lid. A corner brush is a much shorter, thinner brush, designed to pinpoint the corner of the eyes.
Gently dab the eyeshadow on. Move from the corner of your eye inward, covering about two thirds of your eyelid with the second lightest color.
Use light, gentle swiping motions. Use a few layers, enough that the color is distinct and brings out your eye without being overpowering. Less is generally more when going for a nude look.
2-3. Fill in your crease with the darkest color.
Take your darkest color and use a blending brush, which is a larger, fluffier eye shadow brush. Starting at your outer lid, use sideways swiping motions to fill in your crease. You want to make your crease slightly more defined by filling it in a little more with a darker shade.
You should also apply a small amount of the darker color to your lower lash line. This will make your eyes look a little wider.
2-4. Blend everything with the second lightest color.
Take the second lightest color again. Apply it to a blending brush and gently dust it over the out corner of your eye, making a v-shape with this color that surrounds your eye.
When you finish the v-shape, use circular motions and move the brush over the corner of your eye and your eyelid.
Keep blending until all the colors run together slightly, giving your makeup a more even look.
3. Finishing Up the Look
3-1. Touch up your eyebrows.
Once you're done with your eyes, return to your eyebrows. You should use a corner brush to gently highlight your eyebrows with the lightest shade of eye shadow.
Draw a line running underneath each eyebrow. Then, gently pat the eye shadow into your skin using your fingers to blend.
You can use a lighter shade if you don't want to use the same eye shadow you used on your eyes. However, make sure to avoid anything shimmery. This will not look natural and can be distracting.
3-2. Add eyeliner.
A light amount of liquid eyeliner is all you need for a nude look. Work with one eye at a time. Close your eye and draw a thin line across the upper lash line. Go slowly, to avoid smudging the eye liner. It can be difficult to remove smudged eyeliner without removing some of your eyeshadow.
It can help to apply a dark shade of eye shadow, such as black, to a corner brush. Then, gently draw a line with eye shadow along your lash line. This can help guide you as you apply your eyeliner.
3-3. Apply mascara.
As with eyeliner, a small amount of mascara is all that's necessary for a nude look. All you need to do is apply your regular mascara, using the brush that came in the tube.
Go slowly when applying mascara. You don't want to accidentally get mascara on your eyelid or upper brow bone.
If you want to use an eyelash curler, this can make your eyelashes look more distinct. However, if you're going for a more natural look, this may look a little too bold.
Tips
If you want a more natural look, you can use less eyeliner or skip eyeliner altogether. Don't worry about adding a wing if you want something that looks very natural.
You can buy eye shadow palates specifically made for a nude look at a department store or beauty salon.

2,051 | How to Apply Oil to an Electric Shaver | 1. How do you oil a rotary shaver?
Remove the blades and squirt 1 drop of oil into each blade chamber.
Pull out each rotary blade and squeeze 1 drop of oil into each of the blade chambers. Put the blades back in and push the head back in place. Then, turn on the shaver for a few seconds so the oil distributes across the blades.
Not sure how to get the blades out? It's easy! Just op open the head and pull it out of the shaver. Pull off the plastic rotary blade guard—you may have to turn it counterclockwise to unlock it. Then, pull out each blade.
If you're using a spray, give 1 quick spritz to each chamber before you put the blades back in.
2. How do you lubricate a foil shaver?
2-1. Squirt 1 drop of oil onto each of the outer foils.
If you're using a spray, give the foils 1 quick spritz. Turn on the shaver and let it run for about 5 seconds so the oil works across the length of the foils.
If you see oil on the exterior of your foil shaver, wipe it clean with a cloth.
2-2. Squeeze 1 drop of oil on the cutting bar underneath the foils.
Remove the foil headpiece from the shaver and tilt the shaver at a 45-degree angle. Turn it on and gently squirt 1 drop of clipper oil onto the cutting blades. Keep the shaver on for 5 seconds so the oil spreads and lubricates all of the cutting bar blades. Then, turn it off.
Avoid holding the shaver up so the blades are at a 90-degree angle. If oil drips straight down into the electrical components, it could damage the shaver.
To remove the metallic foil cover from the top of the shaver, press the release button that's on the side. Then, pull the shaver head away from the cutting blades below.
3. What kind of oil do you use in an electric shaver?
3-1. Most manufacturers recommend mineral oil.
You can also use baby oil which is mineral oil with a slight fragrance. These are light oils that will lubricate the working parts of your shaver without clogging the delicate mechanics. They're also gentle on your skin so you won't get irritated.
Your electric shaver might have come with a small tube of clipper oil. Trim off the tip from the end and you'll be able to squeeze the oil onto the cutting blades.
3-2. You can use a lubricating spray designed for shavers.
Check your local beauty supply store for a specialist cleaning and lubricating spray. This cleans and disinfects the shaver while adding a light layer of lubrication.
This specialist spray is sometimes called 5-in-1 clipper spray. If you don't see it at the beauty supply store, check online.
4. Can you use cooking or motor oil?
No—these are too thick for your shaver.
Cooking oils like olive or vegetable oil can clog the delicate parts of your electric shaver, so don't use them. Motor oil or water-displacing products like WD40 can also damage the shaver and irritate your skin so skip these as well.
Coconut oil is another one you shouldn't use—although it wouldn't bother your skin, it's also too thick for the shaver.
5. How often should you oil an electric shaver?
Preferably, you should oil it after every use.
This keeps the blades in top condition. If you don't use your shaver every day, it's totally fine to oil the shaver just a few times a week.
Do you use shaving cream or gel? These can dry out the blades so oiling your shaver is really important.
6. Do you have to clean a shaver before you oil it?
Yes—it's important to remove hair and dead skin cells first.
Otherwise, they'll clump up in the oil and this can clog the shaver. To clean your electric shaver, remove the foil headpiece from the top or pop open the head on your rotary shaver. Rinse out the hairs and let the shaver air dry completely before you oil it. You may need to remove individual blades if you've got a rotary shaver.
If you see tiny hairs still stuck around the blades, take a small bristle brush and gently brush them away.
Most electric rotary shavers are designed with rinsing the hairs in mind, so you can get the shavers wet. If you're not sure if you can get yours wet, check your owner's manual.
If you are transitioning to an electric shaver from wet shaving, use a beard trimmer for a week or two. It will help to accustom your facial skin to the abrasion of a metal trimmer.
Test the electric shaver on the cheeks first and see how your skin reacts to it.
Be careful while working on the neckline. It is the most sensitive spot.
Warnings
Always use caution when you oil the shaver and take care when you remove the blades or expose the cutting bar.

2,052 | How to Apply Onion on Hair | 1. Juicing Onions with a Juicer
1-1. Set up the collection and pulp containers on your juicer.
Place a collection cup under the spout of the juicer and, if your juicer has one, attach the pulp container onto the base. Use your juicer’s manual as a guide if you have a model with other accessories or if you’re not sure where to locate the parts.
Some juicers come with a collection pitcher, but if not, any cup or bowl will do.
If your juicer has a plunger to push fruits or vegetables into the chute, make sure it’s washed with water and dish soap beforehand.
1-2. Slice the ends off of 1 or 2 onions and peel off the outer skin.
A single onion will yield about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of onion juice, which is enough for 2 applications. Use a sharp knife to cut the top and bottom, then peel off the paper-like skin. Discard these scraps in a compost bin if you have one.
It’s best to use yellow onions because they have the most sulfur and vitamins, but you can use any kind you have on hand.
Make sure not to peel off too much of the outer layer because that’s where most of the vitamins and sulfur compounds are stored.
1-3. Cut the onion
If your juicer’s chute allows you to drop large chunks into it, simply chop the onions in half then cut each half again to make 4 pieces. If large chunks won’t fit into your juicer’s spout, slice each chunk in half again.
Check your juicer’s user manual to see the recommended size of fruits and vegetables.
1-4. Feed one chunk at a time into the juicing chute.
Use the appliance's plunger to gently push the onion chunk down into the chute. To avoid jamming up your juicer, don’t add another chunk until you see juice come out through the spout and pulp coming out of the pulp chute.
Do not use your fingers to push the onion down into the machine. If you don’t have a plunger, use the handle of a dull knife or stirring spoon and don’t insert it more than 2 inches (5.1 cm) into the chute.
Repeat this process until you’ve juiced all of the onion chunks.
1-5. Pour the juice into a spray bottle or refrigerate it in an airtight jar for later.
If you’re doing a scalp treatment right away, pour the juice into a clean spray bottle for the easiest application. Otherwise, pour it into an airtight container and store it in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
You can also pour it into any bottle with an applicator tip (like a clean ketchup bottle).
While the refrigerated onion juice will stay fresh for 2 weeks, it’s best to use it within 3 to 4 days before the sulfuric acid content will dissipate over time and make the treatment less effective.
2. Making Onion Juice with a Blender
2-1. Cut off the ends, remove the skin, and chop 1 onion into quarters.
Use a sharp knife to cut off each end of the onion, then peel off the paper-like outer skin. Slice it down the middle to cut it in half and then cut each half to make 4 chunks.
A single onion will produce about ⁄4 cup (59 mL) of juice, which is enough for 2 applications.
Throw away the skins or toss them in your compost bin if you have one.
2-2. Blend the sliced onions in a high-speed blender for 30 to 60 seconds.
Place the cut onions into a blender and put the lid on. Set the speed to high and wait 30 to 60 seconds until there are no more onion chunks left.
If you're using a bullet blender, it may only take 15 to 20 seconds.
If you don't have a blender, slice the onions into pieces that are 1 inch (2.5 cm) in diameter. Then put 1 or 2 chunks into a garlic press and squeeze the juice into a glass.
2-3. Place a layer of cheesecloth over the top of a cup or jar.
Cut a square of cheesecloth to be 6 inches (15 cm) by 6 inches (15 cm) and lay it over the top of a collection cup or jar. You can also use a coffee filter or pantyhose if you don't have cheesecloth.
As an alternative set a fine-mesh strainer over the top of a jar or bowl.
2-4. Pour ⁄2 cup (120 mL) of mashed onions on top of the cloth.
Use your thumb and index finger on your left hand to hold the cheesecloth over the mouth of the jar. Pour ⁄2 cup (120 mL) of the onion mash onto the cheesecloth.
Save any leftovers by pouring the mixture into an ice cube tray and sliding the tray into a large freezer bag. The onion cubes will keep for 3 to 6 months and you can use them to make another hair mask or in many recipes that call for onion flavor (like soups and stews).
2-5. Gather the sides of the cloth and squeeze out the juice.
Bring all of the sides of the cloth together around the onion mash and use your hands to squeeze out as much of the juice as you can. Be sure to hold the cloth over the collection cup or jar so you don't lose any juice.
If you're using a fine-mesh strainer, pour the onion mash into the strainer and mash out the juice with a spoon.
Store the extra juice in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 7 days.
2-6. Add 3 drops of lemon and lemongrass essential oils if desired.
Essential oils will help mask the sulfuric smell of the onion treatment. For the most benefits without the onion smell, add 3 drops of each oil and stir the mixture with a spoon.
Lemon has antifungal properties, which is perfect if you have dandruff or a scalp infection like ringworm.
Lemongrass has antibacterial properties, which will strengthen your hair follicles and promote long, healthy hair.
3. Applying Onion Juice to Your Scalp
3-1. Make sure your hair is clean and dry.
A clean, dry scalp is going to soak up the vitamins and minerals from the onion juice better than an oily or wet scalp. It's okay if you have some product on the ends of your hair because you’ll only be applying the juice to your scalp.
If your hair is dirty, wash it with shampoo and conditioner then let it air dry. You can blow dry it, but it’s not recommended because the air and heat could further irritate a dry, itchy, or infected scalp.
3-2. Do a quick patch test by putting some of the juice on your inner elbow.
Dip a cotton ball into the onion juice and rub it on your inner elbow on or near the crease. Wait for 2 to 3 minutes to see if any redness, burning, or irritation develops. If not, it’s safe to use on your scalp.
If you notice a burning or itching sensation or if your inner-elbow skin turns red, don’t use the onion juice.
3-3. Pour the onion juice into a clean spray bottle if you had it stored.
Carefully pour the onion juice from its storage container into a spray bottle using a steady hand or a funnel. If you're reusing a spray bottle that contained cleaning solution, make sure to wash it out with dish soap and water.
You'll need about ⁄8 cup (30 mL) of juice for 1 application.
If you don’t have a spray bottle, pour it into any bottle (preferably one that has an applicator tip).
3-4. Part your hair down the middle and massage the juice onto your scalp.
Use a comb to part your hair down the middle then spray your scalp 5 or 6 times or until it’s damp. No need to brush your hair, just use your fingers to massage the onion oil onto your scalp.
If your scalp is extremely dry, apply the onion juice first and then massage in 2 teaspoons (9.9 mL) of coconut or olive oil.
If you’re not using a spray bottle, pour a quarter-sized amount of the liquid into your palm, drip it onto your scalp, and massage it in.
3-5. Pin your hair up to expose the back of your scalp and apply the juice.
Use large clips, hair ties, or pins to lift and secure your hair so you can apply it to the back of your scalp. Massage the oil onto your scalp with your fingers, focusing on any problem areas where you have bald spots or itchiness.
You can also flip your hair over and spray it in sections: the middle-back, right-back, and left-back.
3-6. Spray the onion juice on any problem areas on the sides of your scalp.
Flip your hair over to the right to spray the juice onto itchy or balding areas, then do the same for the left side. Make sure to massage it into the areas just above and around your ears because these can be prone to dryness and flaking (especially if you have psoriasis, eczema, or alopecia).
If you have very thick hair, it may help to pin parts of it back to expose the side scalp areas.
3-7. Put on a shower cap and wait 1 hour.
Putting a shower cap over your head will help retain heat, opening the follicles on your scalp so the onion juice can soak in. If you don’t have a shower cap, wrap your hair in a clean, dry towel just like you would do getting out of the shower.
Put the towel in the dryer for 1 minute on high heat to warm it up—the extra heat will help the juice work its magic!
A cap will also prevent any of the juice from dripping and getting in your eyes and causing redness and burning.
If you experience a burning sensation, rinse your hair immediately and wash it with shampoo and conditioner.
3-8. Wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner.
After the 1-hour mark, rinse your hair with warm water in the shower then wash it with shampoo and conditioner. If you have alopecia, use a shampoo or conditioner that contains jojoba oil or grapeseed oil for a more effective treatment.
Don’t use onion juice as an overnight treatment—leaving it on longer than 1 hour won’t have any additional benefits and may irritate your scalp if you have sensitive skin.
Apply the juice once or twice a week for the best results.
Note that it can take 3 or 4 months to notice any visible results.
Tips
While you have the onion oil on your scalp, apply shea butter or coconut oil on the tips of your hair for a 2-part hair-renewal treatment.
Warnings
Don’t put your fingers into the chute of your juicer.[27]

2,053 | How to Apply Orajel | 1. Treating with Orajel
1-1. Make sure your skin is not broken.
Don’t use Orajel on broken skin, as it could cause irritation. Also, your wound could be at risk for an infection, and Orajel shouldn’t be used on infected skin.
If your skin is broken, use a product approved for use on open wounds.
1-2. Follow the dosing instructions on the label.
Most people over the age of 2 can use Orajel 3-4 times a day. Apply a thin layer to the area you’re treating. Use as little product as possible.
You can also check with your doctor to determine the proper dosage.
1-3. Wash your hands before you use Orajel.
Start with clean hands so that you don’t introduce germs and bacteria into the product. Use mild soap and warm water to cleanse your hands.
It's especially important to wash your hands if you're applying the product with your fingers.
1-4. Put a small amount of Orajel on your finger or a sterile gauze pad.
Don’t apply the product directly onto your skin, even if it comes in a spray. Instead, use your fingers or gauze to apply it. You can squeeze or spray the Orajel directly onto your applicator.
You can also use a clean cotton swab for application.
If you’re using a throat spray, you can spray it directly onto your throat.
1-5. Dab the product onto the area you’re treating.
Use slow, gentle movements to limit pain caused by your application. Continue dabbing the product onto the site until you’ve created a thin layer of Orajel.
If you didn’t apply enough product to your fingers or the gauze, it’s okay to apply more. It’s a good idea to wash your hands or get a clean piece of gauze for your second application.
1-6. Wash your hands after applying it to remove any excess product.
The ointment can soak into your skin, so you might accidentally absorb too much product if you don’t wash your hands. This increases your risk of developing side effects, which can become serious.
Soap and warm water will remove the excess Orajel if you wash your hands immediately.
1-7. Take a missed dose as soon as you remember or wait for the next dose.
In most cases, it’s best to go ahead and take your missed dose. However, don’t take 2 doses back to back. If it’s almost time for your next dose, just skip the one you missed.
If you missed a dose because you weren't experiencing pain, it's a good idea to reduce the number of times you're applying it. Use as little of the medication as possible.
1-8. Watch for common side effects, such as mild stinging and redness.
Common side effects of Orajel include mild irritation, itching, redness, tenderness, and dry, flaking skin at the application site. These usually go away. However, severe side effects can occur, such as severe burning or stinging, swelling, warm skin, redness, oozing, or infection. If any of these side effects occur, stop using the product immediately and seek medical care.
Check the label for more information about side effects.
1-9. Seek emergency medical care if you have an allergic reaction.
These include hives, breathing issues, and swelling of your face, tongue, lips, or throat. This is a serious medical condition.
Similarly, seek medical attention if you have signs of methemoglobinemia, a blood disorder that Orajel can cause. Symptoms include headache, tiredness, confusion, fast heart rate, lightheadedness, shortness of breath, or pale, blue, or gray skin, lips, or nails.
2. Using Orajel Safely
2-1. Talk to your doctor before using Orajel.
Although Orajel is sold over-the-counter, it’s still a medication. It isn’t right for everyone, and your doctor is the best resource for determining if it’s right for you. Make sure you tell them about other medications you’re taking.
Follow all of your doctor’s instructions.
2-2. Avoid giving Orajel or Baby Orajel to children under age 2.
It’s tempting to turn to Orajel to help your baby cope with teething discomfort, but it’s best to stick to other methods recommended by your doctor. Orajel’s active ingredient is benzocaine, which can cause a dangerous condition called methemoglobinemia in young babies.
Methemoglobinemia reduces the amount of oxygen your organs and tissues receive from your blood.
Talk to your doctor before giving anything to your baby, especially over-the-counter medication.
2-3. Use your Orajel no more than 4 times a day.
Only apply the Orajel if you truly need it, such as when you’re experiencing pain. Using it too much can increase your risk of side effects, such as methemoglobinemia.
Methemoglobinemia reduces the amount of oxygen distributed throughout your body.
2-4. Check the expiration date on your Orajel.
You should not use expired medication, so it’s important to always check that your product is still good. If it’s expired, throw it out and get a new container.
The expiration date should be printed on the tube or spray bottle. If you can’t find it, it’s best to purchase a new one.
2-5. Read the label before using the Orajel.
The packaging contains valuable information about how and when to apply the product. Additionally, it provides cautionary information for you to consider. Always read and follow the instructions on the label.
Don’t use more Orajel than is recommended. Similarly, don’t use it to treat any condition not listed on the label.
2-6. Avoid using Orajel on open wounds or burns unless told to by a doctor.
The ointment is not safe for broken skin or severe irritation, such as burned or inflamed skin. It can worsen your skin irritation if you use the ointment incorrectly.
Orajel shouldn’t be used when an infection may be present, and an open wound or burn increases your risk of infection.
2-7. Don't eat or drink for 1 hour after applying it to your mouth.
Eating or drinking could cause you to wash the Orajel down your throat. Not only will this limit its usefulness in numbing your pain, it also causes you to ingest the product, which can be harmful.
Don’t even drink water.
You can resume eating or drinking after an hour.
2-8. Use caution if you smoke or have a heart or breathing condition.
Breathing conditions include asthma, bronchitis, or emphysema. Having heart or lung issues increases your risk of developing a negative reaction to the Orajel. This makes you more likely to experience side effects.
It’s best to avoid using it unless your doctor says it’s okay.
2-9. Store your Orajel out of reach of children and pets.
Put it in a cool, dry place that's hard for them to access. For example, keep it on a high shelf in your medicine cabinet. The product can be dangerous if it’s improperly ingested.
You might also keep it in a secure first aid kit.
3. Addressing Common Conditions
3-1. Treat minor pain on your skin or around your nails.
As long as your skin isn’t broken, you can treat minor skin or nail issues. This might include random nerve pain, such as in your hands.
For example, you might use Orajel on an ingrown nail or toenail.
3-2. Relieve pain from bee or wasp stings.
Stings are a common source of pain or discomfort. Luckily, Orajel can help numb away that pain! Just make sure you don’t have an open wound.
Make sure you remove the stinger before applying the product to a bee sting.
3-3. Apply it inside your mouth for nerve pain, cold sores, or throat irritation.
You can use a small amount of Orajel in your mouth for toothaches, gum pain, cheek sores, etc. Use as little ointment as possible.
For throat irritation, it’s best to use a spray, lozenge, or mouth rinse.
3-4. Use Orajel on your vagina to relieve irritation.
It’s safe to use Orajel on your vagina. However, it’s best to only do so if you know you aren’t allergic to the product. Apply as little product as necessary to get relief.
3-5. Put the cream on your anal area for hemorrhoids and other irritation.
Orajel is a common treatment for hemorrhoids, as it can numb away the pain. You can also use it to relieve other pain around your rectum.
If you want to treat rectal pain, you might look for a benzocaine suppository instead of applying Orajel.
Tips
In a medical setting, Orajel may be used to numb your mouth, vagina, or anus before a tube or medical instrument is inserted.[20]

2,054 | How to Apply Osmo Polyx Oil | 1. Sanding the Floor
1-1. Prepare your work space.
Set up your work space in a well-ventilated area and ensure that there's no smoking or open flames around. Consider wearing a half-face respirator with an organic-vapor cartridge if the ventilation is poor.
1-2. Clean and dry the wood floor.
Wash the floor with your usual wood floor cleanser. Once it's completely clean, use a microfiber cloth to dry the floor. If you have a dehumidifier, run it until the humidity in the room is below 50%.
The temperature in the room should be between 60 °F (16 °C) and 75 °F (24 °C).
1-3. Sand away old varnishes or lacquers
If you're only finishing a small area such as a door or board, use a sanding block or sand paper. If you're finishing an entire floor, use a drum or band sander. Either way, sand away old varnishes or lacquers using a very rough or medium grit (40 to 60). Then, move to a medium or fine grit (100 to 120) for light sanding.
If the wood doesn't have old finishes to remove, you can use a medium grit (around 80).
1-4. Fill any cracks
Wipe away any dust from sanding and check the entire surface of the wood for small cracks, dents, or holes that need to be filled. Spread a wood filler or putty in over the spaces and let it dry for a few hours or according to the manufacturer's instructions.
1-5. Sand the filled surface.
Once the wood filler has hardened completely, take medium or fine grit (100 to 120) sandpaper and rub it over the surface of the wood. This will ensure that there aren't any bumps on the prepared wood.
1-6. Vacuum up all dust from the wood.
Use the soft-brush attachment of a vacuum cleaner to suck up the dust from your prepared wood. Ensure that you don't scratch the wood as you run the attachment over it.
2. Applying the First Coat
2-1. Stir the osmo polyx oil.
Open your can of hardwax oil and use a long wooden paint stick to stir the oil. Keep stirring until the oil that's separated is emulsified. You shouldn't see any clear oil floating to the top. Pour some of the oil into your paint tray.
2-2. Dip a floor brush into the osmo polyx oil and dab it over the wood.
You can use an osmo floor brush or a floor brush you purchased from a hardware store. Dip the brush into the oil in your paint tray and dab it 2 to 3 times over the wood you're finishing. Leave 4 to 6 inches (10 to 15 cm) of space between each dab of oil.
2-3. Scrub the oil into the wood using the floor brush.
Take the brush and scrub against the grain to spread the oil over a larger space. You should see a thin layer of oil coat the surface of the wood.
2-4. Rub the oil against the grain.
Continue to use the floor brush to scrub the oil into the wood, but turn the brush so you're going with the grain. Scrub until the brush is dry.
Avoid lifting the brush up off of the wood and back down because this will leave noticeable streaks. Instead, keep stroking and rubbing the brush across the wood.
2-5. Work a small area of the wood at a time.
If you're finishing a floor, you'll need to apply and scrub in the osmo polyx in small sections before moving to the rest of the floor. This will ensure that the oil doesn't harden before you've had a chance to scrub it into the wood. When sealing a floor, start in the corner so you can work your way towards the door.
2-6. Store the osmo polyx oil and floor brush.
Wrap the tray with the osmo polyx oil and the floor brush in an airtight plastic bag. This will prevent the oil from drying out as the wood dries.
3. Spreading the Second Coat
3-1. Dry the wood for 24 hours.
Although you need to apply 1 more coat of osmo polyx oil, it's important to let the first coat dry completely. If you think the wood is ready for another coat, check it by rubbing a small area with a green scrubbie pad. If you see white powder flake off, the wood is ready for another coat of oil. If not, wait several more hours and check again.
3-2. Apply the second coat of osmo polyx oil.
Remove the plastic wrap from the paint tray and brush. Dip the floor brush into the osmo polyx oil and dab it over the wood a few times. Scrub the oil across the floor as you did for the first coat. Remember to start by going against the grain before you work the oil with the grain.
3-3. Clean the brush and paint tray with paint thinner.
Once you've finished the second coat, rub paint thinner through the bristles of the brush. This will prevent the oil from drying in the brush. Then, use the paint thinner to clean out the paint tray.
3-4. Dispose of any oil-soaked materials.
Never throw oil-soaked rags or sanding dust into the trash. Let them dry and place them in a small airtight container such as a coffee can. Pour a water and oil-breakdown detergent over the rags and seal the container. Contact your city about hazardous waste collection.
3-5. Let the floor dry completely.
Avoid walking or installing the finished wood for at least 8 to 24 hours after applying the second coat. You'll still need to be careful when you move furniture over the wood or lay rugs down. Wait a few weeks to cover the wood so the oil can cure properly.

Work a small area of the wood at a time.\\nIf you're finishing a floor, you'll need to apply and scrub in the osmo polyx in small sections before moving to the rest of the floor. This will ensure that the oil doesn't harden before you've had a chance to scrub it into the wood. When sealing a floor, start in the corner so you can work your way towards the door.\\n2-6. Store the osmo polyx oil and floor brush.\\nWrap the tray with the osmo polyx oil and the floor brush in an airtight plastic bag. This will prevent the oil from drying out as the wood dries.\\n3. Spreading the Second Coat\\n3-1. Dry the wood for 24 hours.\\nAlthough you need to apply 1 more coat of osmo polyx oil, it's important to let the first coat dry completely. If you think the wood is ready for another coat, check it by rubbing a small area with a green scrubbie pad. If you see white powder flake off, the wood is ready for another coat of oil. If not, wait several more hours and check again.\\n3-2. Apply the second coat of osmo polyx oil.\\nRemove the plastic wrap from the paint tray and brush. Dip the floor brush into the osmo polyx oil and dab it over the wood a few times. Scrub the oil across the floor as you did for the first coat. Remember to start by going against the grain before you work the oil with the grain.\\n3-3. Clean the brush and paint tray with paint thinner.\\nOnce you've finished the second coat, rub paint thinner through the bristles of the brush. This will prevent the oil from drying in the brush. Then, use the paint thinner to clean out the paint tray.\\n3-4. Dispose of any oil-soaked materials.\\nNever throw oil-soaked rags or sanding dust into the trash. Let them dry and place them in a small airtight container such as a coffee can. Pour a water and oil-breakdown detergent over the rags and seal the container. Contact your city about hazardous waste collection.\\n3-5. Let the floor dry completely.\\nAvoid walking or installing the finished wood for at least 8 to 24 hours after applying the second coat.

2,055 | Great Looking Ways to Apply Overtone Color Conditioner | 1. First Application
1-1. Choose a Overtone shade that will show up on your current hair color.
Color conditioner will look vibrant on platinum blonde and pre-lightened hair. If you have unbleached hair, use the For Brown Color Conditioner line for a highly pigmented color. Keep in mind that pastel shades will only show up if you have pale, bleached hair.
You can also create custom colors by mixing 2 shades together.
1-2. Do a quick strand test before applying your color.
Grab a section of hair near the base of your neck that’s about 1 in (2.5 cm) wide. Apply the Color Conditioner to this strand, let it sit for 15 minutes, then rinse it out with warm water. Dry that section of hair to see how the color turned out before you apply it all over your hair.
Since Overtone is a conditioner, it won’t dry out your hair or damage it—you're just adding pigment on top of your hair. It's even safe to use on bleached hair.
1-3. Wash your hair and dry it completely.
Color Conditioner works best on clean, dry hair. Give your head a nice shampoo and conditioning treatment, then air dry it or use a hair dryer on your locks.
1-4. Put on gloves to protect your hands.
Overtone Color Conditioner does have a tendency to stain skin, especially the brighter, more pigmented colors. Grab a pair of rubber or latex gloves that you don’t mind getting dye on before you start.
You can also throw on an old T-shirt that you don’t mind getting stained.
1-5. Add a thin layer of petroleum jelly to your forehead.
Dip your fingers into a pot of petroleum jelly and smooth a thin layer onto your forehead, ears, and neck. This will help you avoid staining your face and neck with color as you apply the conditioner.
This is especially important if you’re using a dark color, like purple or red.
1-6. Put up half of your hair to make application easier.
To make the process easier, brush your hair out and pull about half of it up, going from the tops of your ears upwards. Secure your hair with a hair tie or a clip to keep it out of the way as you use your dye.
Since you’re using a conditioner to color your hair, you don’t have to worry about sectioning it perfectly. The conditioner will spread out on its own as you rub it into your hair.
1-7. Spread a thick layer of Color Conditioner on dry hair from roots to ends.
Using your hands, grab a glob of the conditioner and spread it between your palms. Starting from the roots of your hair, work the product into every strand before moving downwards. When you’re finished with the bottom layer of hair, take down the top layer and do that next.
If you want to triple check that your color is even, use a wide toothed comb to comb through the conditioner in your hair.
1-8. Wait 10-15 minutes and rinse your hair with warm or hot water.
Color Conditioner won’t take long to color your hair. After 10 to 15 minutes, head to the sink or the shower and use warm or hot water to rinse out the dye until the water runs clear.
Watch out if you have a white tub! Overtone can stain your bathroom surfaces. To make sure that doesn’t happen, wipe the excess conditioner off ASAP.
2. Color Maintenance
2-1. Shampoo your hair in the shower as you normally would.
You can use daily conditioner every time you wash your hair, and you don’t have to dry it. Shampoo your hair with whatever you normally use in the shower before applying your conditioner.
Shampooing your hair tends to remove some of the color, so you'll probably want to add more every time you wash your hair.
To protect your hair, use a cleansing conditioner or a gentle shampoo that won't strip your hair of its natural oils.
2-2. Rub the Daily Conditioner into your hair.
Grab a thick glob of Daily Conditioner and work it into your hair. Make sure you really saturate every strand so your locks soak up the color.
Since your hair is wet, it’s easy to just massage the conditioner into your hair like you would with a regular conditioner.
This is a moisturizing conditioner, so it should add softness and shine to your hair.
2-3. Rinse your hair out after 3 to 5 minutes with warm or hot water.
Since your hair is already colored, you don’t need to wait as long before rinsing. Finish up the rest of your shower routine, then use warm or hot water to rinse your hair until the water runs clear.
Now you can brush your hair, let it air dry, or style it.
2-4. Reapply the conditioner every time you wash your hair.
Since the Daily Conditioner isn’t as strong as the Color Conditioner, you can use it to refresh your color anytime you’re in the shower. If you do want to switch to a new color or add more pigment, you can apply Color Conditioner the same way you applied it the first time.
If you’re switching to a new color of Overtone, you should try to fade your hair as much as possible before changing colors. You can do that by shampooing more often, adding vitamin C tablets to your shampoo, or using a toner to get rid of that last bit of stubborn color.
2-5. Use Color Conditioner whenever you need a bigger color refresh.
If you feel like the Daily Conditioner isn’t giving you enough color, you can refresh your hair with the original Color Conditioner that you used. Depending on how often you wash your hair, you might need to use it more or less, so just see how it goes.
The Color Conditioner is stronger than the Daily Conditioner, so it will dye your hair a deeper, richer color.

2,056 | How to Apply Pancake Makeup | 1. Learning the Proper Technique
1-1. Wet your sponge.
Pancake makeup needs to be activated with water, and should be applied with a dense sponge. The great thing about pancake makeup is that you can control the amount of coverage you get by adding more or less water (less water means less diluted makeup and heavier coverage).
For regular coverage, soak your sponge with water and then squeeze out the excess so the sponge is damp.
For lighter coverage, soak the sponge and then give it a gentle squeeze so it’s not dripping wet.
While using more water allows you to thin out the coverage, using too water much can lead to an uneven finish and streaks.
Because pancake makeup can provide such heavy coverage, you can actually use a shade that’s two or three shades lighter than your skin tone.
1-2. Rub the sponge into the makeup.
Use gentle pressure as your rub to cover one side of the sponge with makeup. For lighter coverage, don’t use any added pressure: the weight from the water will press the sponge into the makeup enough to pick up the right amount.
1-3. Apply the makeup to your face.
With the amount of pancake you have on the sponge, begin applying the makeup to your face. Cover as much of your face as possible before going back for more. When you run out, rub the sponge into the makeup again and continue covering your face.
Apply the pancake to your face, cheeks, nose, forehead, and even eyelids. If you're using thick coverage in a shade that’s noticeably different from your natural skin tone, also cover your entire throat and neck as far back as your ears.
For lighter coverage, use light and quick strokes to apply a thin layer of pancake.
When you're applying your foundation, be careful not to apply too much or too little product. Also, it's best to use high-quality products, since you'll get a better color payoff.
1-4. Blend the makeup.
When you have covered your face, squeeze the excess water from the sponge and turn it to the clean side to begin blending. Use gentle pressure to blend the makeup into your skin. Don’t forget the areas between your eyes and the corners of your nose, mouth, and eyes.
When blending, focus on making the coverage even and removing streaks.
1-5. Let the makeup dry.
Once you’ve finished blending, give the makeup a few moments to dry. If you're going for lighter coverage, blot your face with a cloth or tissue while it’s still moist to absorb excess makeup and water.
1-6. Powder your face.
Use a brush, puff, or clean sponge to apply a thin layer of setting, finishing, or foundation powder over top of the pancake. Remove excess powder and smooth out the finish by buffing the face with a sponge or puff.
Make sure the pancake is completely dry before applying powder.
2. Applying Contoured Pancake Makeup
2-1. Understand contouring.
Contouring is a way of applying darker and lighter makeup to different areas of your face in order to highlight and de-emphasize certain features. For instance, you can use:
Darker makeup under your cheekbones to make your face look longer and thinner.
Lighter makeup on top of your cheekbones to make them stand out.
Darker makeup on your jawbone to make your face look narrower
Both types of makeup to make your nose look narrower.
Make your eyes stand out more.
2-2. Pick your makeup shades.
The process of applying contoured pancake makeup is the same as with regular foundation, only you use multiple colors to highlight and shade different features. You will need your regular pancake makeup (that matches your skin tone), a pancake for highlighting, and a pancake for darker contours.
When you're matching your foundation, make sure the undertones match your skin tone. For instance, if you have a pink undertone and you use a neutral-cool foundation, it's going to oxidize and look yellow on your skin.
For the contour, choose a shade that’s a couple shades darker than your regular pancake.
For the highlighter, opt for a pancake that’s a couple shades lighter than your regular pancake. If you want the pancake to also cover red or dark spots, choose a greenish shade.
2-3. Wash and moisturize your face.
Wash your face with a gentle cleanser to remove oil, sweat, and dirt. Pat your face dry and apply an oil-free moisturizer or toner. Let the moisturizer absorb for about five minutes.
Pancake makeup won’t adhere to your skin properly if there's water, oil, dirt, or sweat on your face, which is why you have to start with clean and oil-free skin.
2-4. Contour to make your cheekbones stand out.
If you want to make your face look narrower and your cheekbones more prominent, you can contour your cheekbones to do this. Remember that when you're contouring with pancake makeup, you will have to work a little faster than you would with regular makeup, because you will have to blend everything once you’ve applied all the makeup. Using a thin makeup sponge that’s damp with water, apply:
A thin line of highlighter pancake above the cheekbone, from the middle of your cheek to the spot where your eyebrow ends.
A finger-width line of darker pancake below the cheekbone, from the ear toward the corner of the mouth. Don’t extend the line beyond where your pupil is.
Be sure to use a separate sponge for each color.
2-5. Give yourself a chiselled jawline.
This can give you more definition around your jaw, and help hide extra fat under your chin. With the darker pancake and the sponge, apply pancake to your jawline and the area just under it. On both sides of your face:
Start at your ear and follow the jawline all the way to your chin. To make your chin look narrower, taper the makeup as you approach the chin so that you don’t follow the curve of your chin.
To hide extra fat underneath the chin, follow the jaw under your chin with the pancake as well.
2-6. Make your nose look narrower.
Apply a line of highlighter pancake down the center of your nose, from between your eyebrows right down to the tip.
With the darker pancake, draw a line down either side of the center of your nose, from the inner end of each eyebrow all the way down to the tip of your nose. At the tip of your nose, taper the makeup slightly inward.
2-7. Give your forehead more definition.
With the darker pancake, apply a thin line of makeup across your forehead, just below your hair line. Make the line a little thicker in the area above the natural curve of your eyebrows.
2-8. Make other features pop.
You can make other features stand out by applying a small amount of highlighter. This includes dabbing a circle of highlighter to the center of your chin, drawing a small V shape in between your eyebrows, and putting a dab of highlighter at the Cupid’s bow (the top center of your upper lip).
To make your eyes pop, apply a semicircle of highlighter under each eye.
2-9. Apply the regular pancake and blend.
Dampen a regular (not thin) makeup sponge and use this to apply your regular pancake to the remaining areas of your face where you didn’t put highlighter or contour. When you're finished, turn the sponge over and immediately begin blending the makeup so there are no harsh lines, uneven spots, or abrupt changes in color.
2-10. Apply a powder.
Once you’ve blended the three colors together, allow the pancake to dry and then apply a finishing, setting, or foundation powder over top. Use the brush or sponge to blend the powder in as well.

Blend the makeup.\\nWhen you have covered your face, squeeze the excess water from the sponge and turn it to the clean side to begin blending. Use gentle pressure to blend the makeup into your skin. Don’t forget the areas between your eyes and the corners of your nose, mouth, and eyes.\\nWhen blending, focus on making the coverage even and removing streaks.\\n1-5. Let the makeup dry.\\nOnce you’ve finished blending, give the makeup a few moments to dry. If you're going for lighter coverage, blot your face with a cloth or tissue while it’s still moist to absorb excess makeup and water.\\n1-6. Powder your face.\\nUse a brush, puff, or clean sponge to apply a thin layer of setting, finishing, or foundation powder over top of the pancake. Remove excess powder and smooth out the finish by buffing the face with a sponge or puff.\\nMake sure the pancake is completely dry before applying powder.\\n2. Applying Contoured Pancake Makeup\\n2-1. Understand contouring.\\nContouring is a way of applying darker and lighter makeup to different areas of your face in order to highlight and de-emphasize certain features. For instance, you can use:\\nDarker makeup under your cheekbones to make your face look longer and thinner.\\nLighter makeup on top of your cheekbones to make them stand out.\\nDarker makeup on your jawbone to make your face look narrower\\nBoth types of makeup to make your nose look narrower.\\nMake your eyes stand out more.\\n2-2. Pick your makeup shades.\\nThe process of applying contoured pancake makeup is the same as with regular foundation, only you use multiple colors to highlight and shade different features. You will need your regular pancake makeup (that matches your skin tone), a pancake for highlighting, and a pancake for darker contours.\\nWhen you're matching your foundation, make sure the undertones match your skin tone. For instance, if you have a pink undertone and you use a neutral-cool foundation, it's going to oxidize and look yellow on your skin.\\nFor the contour, choose a shade that’s a couple shades darker than your regular pancake.\\nFor the highlighter, opt for a pancake that’s a couple shades lighter than your regular pancake. If you want the pancake to also cover red or dark spots, choose a greenish shade.\\n2-3. Wash and moisturize your face.\\nWash your face with a gentle cleanser to remove oil, sweat, and dirt. Pat your face dry and apply an oil-free moisturizer or toner. Let the moisturizer absorb for about five minutes.\\nPancake makeup won’t adhere to your skin properly if there's water, oil, dirt, or sweat on your face, which is why you have to start with clean and oil-free skin.\\n2-4. Contour to make your cheekbones stand out.\\nIf you want to make your face look narrower and your cheekbones more prominent, you can contour your cheekbones to do this. Remember that when you're contouring with pancake makeup, you will have to work a little faster than you would with regular makeup, because you will have to blend everything once you’ve applied all the makeup. Using a thin makeup sponge that’s damp with water, apply:\\nA thin line of highlighter pancake above the cheekbone, from the middle of your cheek to the spot where your eyebrow ends.\\nA finger-width line of darker pancake below the cheekbone, from the ear toward the corner of the mouth. Don’t extend the line beyond where your pupil is.\\nBe sure to use a separate sponge for each color.\\n2-5. Give yourself a chiselled jawline.\\nThis can give you more definition around your jaw, and help hide extra fat under your chin. With the darker pancake and the sponge, apply pancake to your jawline and the area just under it. On both sides of your face:\\nStart at your ear and follow the jawline all the way to your chin. To make your chin look narrower, taper the makeup as you approach the chin so that you don’t follow the curve of your chin.\\nTo hide extra fat underneath the chin, follow the jaw under your chin with the pancake as well.\\n2-6. Make your nose look narrower.\\nApply a line of highlighter pancake down the center of your nose, from between your eyebrows right down to the tip.\\nWith the darker pancake, draw a line down either side of the center of your nose, from the inner end of each eyebrow all the way down to the tip of your nose. At the tip of your nose, taper the makeup slightly inward.\\n2-7. Give your forehead more definition.\\nWith the darker pancake, apply a thin line of makeup across your forehead, just below your hair line. Make the line a little thicker in the area above the natural curve of your eyebrows.\\n2-8. Make other features pop.\\nYou can make other features stand out by applying a small amount of highlighter. This includes dabbing a circle of highlighter to the center of your chin, drawing a small V shape in between your eyebrows, and putting a dab of highlighter at the Cupid’s bow (the top center of your upper lip).\\nTo make your eyes pop, apply a semicircle of highlighter under each eye.\\n2-9.

2,057 | How to Hang Peel and Stick Wallpaper | 1. Cleaning and Measuring the Walls
1-1. Clean your walls with soapy water.
Before applying peel and stick wallpaper, it’s very important that your walls are clean. Grab a cleaning rag and get it damp, then apply a few drops of dish soap to the rag. Gently wipe down your walls, focusing on any dirty or dusty areas, like the corners and the baseboards.
Peel and stick wallpaper works best on drywall that is painted and completely smooth. If your wall has any texture to it, peel and stick wallpaper may not adhere well, and it could fall off quickly.
If there are any holes or bumps in your wall, patch them with joint compound. Then, apply a primer to create a smooth surface for the wallpaper to stick to.
You can use peel and stick wallpaper to cover an entire room, or you can use it to create a bright accent wall.
1-2. Remove any electrical outlet covers and light switches.
Grab a screwdriver and take off all of the outlet covers, light switch covers, and anything else in the area that might get in your way. Keep all of the covers and their screws in a safe spot so you can replace them once you’ve finished.
1-3. Let the walls dry overnight.
It’s super important that your walls are completely dry before you apply your wallpaper. After you’re done wiping them down, leave them to dry for at least 8 hours. You can speed the process up by pointing a fan at your walls and opening all your windows.
If your wall is still wet, the wallpaper may not adhere fully.
1-4. Measure your space to calculate how much wallpaper to buy.
Measure the length and width of each wall in feet or meters. Then, multiply those numbers together to find the surface area. After that, divide your number by the amount of usable wallpaper in a roll, and convert that number to square feet per yard. Then, divide the square feet of the room by the amount of wallpaper per linear yard, and add 10% to that number for a little extra wiggle room.
For example, let’s say your room is 1500 sq ft., and your wallpaper is 54 in (140 cm) wide.
54 divided by 12 = 4.5 linear feet of wallpaper
4.5 multiplied by 3 to convert to sq ft. per yard = 13.5 square feet of wallpaper per linear yard
1500 divided by 13.5 = 111.11 yards
111.11 plus 10% for mistakes = 122.22 yards
1500 square feet of wall space would require 122 yards of wallpaper
2. Creating a Guide for the Wallpaper
2-1. Measure the width of your wallpaper.
You’ll use this measurement as a guide for applying your wallpaper strips. Grab a tape measure and quickly take your measurement, then write it down so you don’t forget it.
2-2. Mark the width of the wallpaper on the wall.
Take your tape measure over to your wall and mark the width of the wallpaper at the edge of where your first strip will go. Use a pencil to make a faint mark that you can cover up later.
2-3. Use a straight edge to draw a line up and down the entire wall.
Grab something long and straight, like a ruler or a level. Start at the top of your mark that you made and continue the line up and down the wall. Now you have a guide you can use to line up your first strip of wallpaper to make sure that it’s completely straight.
Using the ceilings to line up your wallpaper might sound like a good idea, but actually, the spot where the ceiling meets the wall is often not totally straight. It’s better to have a guide in place just to double check.
3. Applying the Wallpaper
3-1. Cut a strip of wallpaper as tall as your wall.
Use a measuring tape to measure from the top of the ceiling down to your baseboards. Use a box cutter to cut a strip of wallpaper 1 to 2 in (2.5 to 5.1 cm) longer than your measurement to give yourself some wiggle room.
3-2. Peel 3 in (7.6 cm) of the backing off your first piece.
When you apply peel and stick wallpaper, it’s easier to work in small sections rather than removing the entire backing at once. Once you have your wallpaper strip, gently peel off a few inches from the top, but leave the rest of the backing on for now.
3-3. Secure the top of the piece to the top of the wall near the ceiling.
Going from the top down will be much easier than going from the bottom up. Step onto a ladder or a step stool to reach the top of your wall, then gently secure the top 3 in (7.6 cm) of the wallpaper onto the wall. Gently smooth out any air bubbles with your hands for now, and make sure that the side of your wallpaper strip lines up with the guide you created earlier.
If your wallpaper doesn’t line up perfectly with the ceiling, that’s okay. Use your guide as a reference to keep it straight, and trim off any excess at the top with a box cutter.
3-4. Peel the rest of the backing off slowly in 3 in (7.6 cm) sections.
Continue to press the wallpaper onto the wall, smoothing with your hands from the center to the outside. Make sure that the wallpaper lines up with your guide as you go down to ensure your strip is completely straight.
Did you make a mistake and now you're wondering how to fix peel and stick wallpaper? No sweat! Simply peel back the corner until the sheet comes off, then realign it and smooth it down again.
3-5. Smooth the wallpaper with a whiteboard eraser to remove bubbles.
Wondering how to get bubbles out of peel and stick wallpaper? You're in luck—it's super easy to smooth them out with a whiteboard eraser. Traditional wallpaper smoothing tools are made of plastic, and they could tear or rip your wallpaper. Instead, use a whiteboard eraser to go over your entire wallpaper strip from the center to the outside.
Smooth your wallpaper in small, circular motions for best results.
If you don’t have a whiteboard eraser, you can smooth with the flat of your palm instead.
3-6. Align the pattern on the next piece before repeating.
If your wallpaper has a repeating pattern that you’d like to align, grab your roll of wallpaper and bring it over to the strip you just applied. Unroll the wallpaper and then line up the pattern with the pattern already on the wall. Then, cut the next strip to match the length of your wall.
If your wallpaper pattern is randomized or you don’t care about the pattern lining up, you can skip this step.
Patterned wallpaper is a great choice for large rooms that need a bit more visual interest.
3-7. Apply and smooth the next pieces of wallpaper to cover the whole wall.
Repeat the process as many times as you need to cover the entire area. You can wallpaper an entire room, or you can just do an accent wall. Be sure to match the pattern of each new piece you cut to make your wallpaper look seamless.
3-8. Cut around outlets, switches, door frames, and windows.
As you apply, you’ll eventually run into spaces in the wall that aren’t completely flat. When that happens, keep applying your wallpaper strip like normal until the entire strip is applied. Then, use a box cutter to cut the wallpaper off of any door frames, windows, electrical outlets, or light switches.
You can also cut off any excess wallpaper that’s hanging onto your baseboards at the same time.
3-9. Poke air bubbles with a small pin to smooth them out.
Some stubborn air bubbles won’t be smoothed by your eraser. If that’s the case, grab a small pin and carefully poke a hole into the center of the bubble. Then, use your fingers to smooth out the paper and flatten the air bubble inside.
Air bubbles not only look a little funny, but they can cause your wallpaper to peel up and off the wall over time.
3-10. Reattach your electrical outlet and light switch covers.
Once all your wallpaper is on the wall, it’s time for finishing touches! Grab your outlet and switch covers and reattach them with a screwdriver. Now you can bask in the glory of your beautiful, temporary wallpaper.
4. Removing Peel and Stick Wallpaper
4-1. Remove any outlet or light switch covers.
Grab your screwdriver and take off any outlet or light switch covers that are on top of the wallpaper. Set your switches and screws aside so you can put them back on once you’re done with the removal process.
Because peel and stick wallpaper is removable, it’s a great way to temporarily apply wallpaper to your living space.
4-2. Peel 1 corner of the wallpaper to start.
Find the top of one strip of wallpaper and gently pry your finger underneath a corner. Lift up the wallpaper and gently peel it away from the wall to start removing it.
Peel and stick wallpaper is usually gentle enough that it won’t chip the paint on your walls underneath it.
4-3. Keep peeling slowly and evenly to remove your wallpaper.
Once you have a few inches of wallpaper up, grab the paper with both hands and pull down and away from the wall. Keep moving at a slow, even pace to make sure the wallpaper doesn’t rip.
Once you have one strip off, keep going to remove the rest of the wallpaper.
4-4. Reuse the wallpaper by applying parchment paper to the backside.
Want to save your wallpaper and use it later? Simply cover the back, sticky side in parchment paper, then roll it up. You can take it to a new spot and apply it the same way you did before for a fun, beautiful statement wall.
If you saved the plastic backing from your wallpaper application, you can use that to save it instead.
Tips
Mix things up by applying wallpaper on your ceiling, too.

2,058 | How to Apply Pencil Eyeliner | 1. Choosing a Pencil Eyeliner
1-1. Consider what type of pencil eyeliner to use.
There are many different types of eyeliner that come in a pencil form, each of which has a different consistency and texture, application, and effect.
Powder-based pencils, sometimes called kohl, offer less intense color. They're also a good option if you want to smudge the eyeliner for a “smoky eye” effect. You can make the color appear more dramatic by wetting the tip before you apply the eyeliner.
Gel- or cream-based pencils offer simple and excellent application. These pencils apply a rich and intense color. They're a good choice if you want to apply a winged, or cat eye, look. You can also purchase gel or cream eyeliners that come in a pot and can be applied with a tapered brush applicator.
Liquid eyeliner pencils offer the most dramatic and intense application. Many liquid liners come in pen form (though it more closely resembles a felt marker), making application fairly simple. However, mistakes are very visible and difficult to correct because of the deep color, so you must have a steady hand during application. Tips range from very thin to thick depending on how intense you want the look or if you want to apply a cat-eye or winged look.
1-2. Consider the eyeliner formula.
Most companies offer different eyeliner formulas for different needs including sensitive eyes and organic, animal-friendly products. Some even offer formulas that include serums to elongate your lashes.
If your eyes are sensitive because you wear contact lenses, or if you suffer from allergic reactions to certain formulas, certain companies (like Almay) make non-allergenic (also called hypoallergenic) makeup, including eyeliner.
If you prefer an eyeliner that is ethically produced, made of organic materials, and is not tested on animals, for example, companies including, Aveda, NARS, Arbonne, The Body Shop, and Josie Maran Cosmetics offer these products.
1-3. Choose an eyeliner color.
Pencil eyeliners come in a broad range of colors from electric blue and emerald green to traditional colors like black and brown.
A good rule of thumb is to apply shades such as black, dark brown, deep plum, or grey if you want a more natural look. You can intensify or soften these colors as you like to achieve your desired look.
Unusual colors such as electric blue, orange, or emerald green will really stand out against your eyes and eyelids, so it's a good idea to use them for special, non-professional occasions. If you want to tone down these colors for an everyday look, pair them with a darker, neutral-colored liner.
Different eyeliner colors highlight each eye color differently. For example, plum eyeliner makes green eyes “pop,” while grey eyeliner looks great on blue eyes. Purple-toned liners can enhance brown eyes, and black is a good choice for any eye color.
1-4. Buy your eyeliner.
Once you've decided on the color, format, and formula, you are ready to purchase the pencil or pencils either at a store or online.
Eyeliners vary greatly in price. They can cost as little as 99 cents and as much as 50 dollars or more.
You can buy eyeliners at retailers including drugstores such as CVS, stores like Target or Walmart, or department stores such as Macy's or Saks Fifth Avenue. Sephora, a large French makeup retailer with stores across the world, is another excellent place to purchase eyeliner.
Most vendors, including CVS, Target, Macy's, and Sephora, also have websites where you can purchase your eyeliner.
If you want to try out different colors or types of eyeliner, visit the makeup counter at your favorite retailer and ask about samples. They may provide you with samples to take home, or they may apply the eyeliner to your eyes so you can see how it looks.
2. Preparing to Apply Pencil Eyeliner
2-1. Wash your face.
Eyelids are the greasiest part of your face. If your skin and eyelids are clean, your eyeliner and any other eye makeup you apply will last longer.
A clean face also helps reduce the chances that you will accidentally get bacteria in your eye, which can cause infection.
2-2. Apply foundation
Your foundation forms a base for your makeup, so it should be applied first. Start by applying foundation to your nose, then work your way out until your entire face is covered.
Foundation will help keep your eyeliner from running or fading.
If you're not wearing foundation or just want extra staying power, use an eyelid primer, which will help keep your eyeliner in place. Simply blend the primer across your eyelid, then let it dry for 10 seconds before continuing to your next makeup application step.
2-3. Make sure you have good lighting.
Pick a room with lots of bright, direct light either from the sun or a lamp.
Having a light that shines evenly across your face allows you to evenly apply the eyeliner on both eyes.
2-4. Have your tools ready.
There are a few products to have handy that will soften your look or fix mistakes.
Brushes. A small-tipped brush in natural or synthetic fibers is the best way to soften your eyeliner line. They are also an easy way to apply gel or liquid liner.
Q-tips or cotton swabs. These are another great way to soften the look of eyeliner. Cotton swabs also effectively fix mistakes when paired with eye makeup remover.
Eye makeup remover. Many companies, including Neutrogena and Clarins, offer eye makeup remover that effectively and gently removes eye makeup and fixes mistakes in your application.
Pencil sharpener. You need to sharpen powder/kohl shadows for best application. This is also a way to clean your pencil, as you're shaving off the surfaces that may have been exposed to bacteria.
3. Applying Your Eyeliner Pencil
3-1. Make sure you are in a comfortable and stable position.
Rest your elbow on a flat surface to steady your hand to ensure even application.
3-2. Blend primer or concealer across your lid, if you haven't already.
Primer and concealer both keep your eye makeup from running or fading. Use your finger or a clean brush to lightly blend the primer or concealer across your eyelid. Let it dry for at least 10 seconds before you continue.
3-3. Apply a matte base eye shadow.
This creates a great canvas for your eyeliner by removing any discolorations and evening out your skin tone.
It's a good idea to use a matte, skin-toned cream eyeshadow as your base. This will allow for more even application of your eyeliner.
However, cream eyeshadows can also lead to smudging or creases throughout the day. It is important to set any cream-based eyeshadows with a powder-based shadow or translucent powder before you apply eyeliner.
3-4. Lightly hold the outer corner of your eye.
This will also help you apply eyeliner evenly.
Make sure not to tug the lash line as this can make the line appear smeared. It is also bad for the delicate skin around your eyes.
3-5. Apply eyeliner to your upper lid.
Place the pencil as close to your lash line as possible and slowly draw a thin line from the outer corner to the inner corner.
Keep the line thin to start. A thinner line will create a more natural look.
Start at the outside corner of your eye. You want to deposit the least amount of pigment on the inner corners of your eye.
You can thicken this pencil line as you like, for instance, if you want to apply your eyeliner in the cat eye or winged style.
If you're interested in doing winged or cat eye style liner, you'll also want to thicken the eyeliner line. Then, draw a line at a 45 degree angle from the corner of your eye. Start from the bottom of the outer edge of your eye and extend upward. You can make this line as long or as short as you wish.
Some makeup artists suggest making dots or dashes along your lash line and then connecting them if you aren't steady with drawing a continuous line.
3-6. Apply pencil liner to your lower lid.
Place the pencil as close to your lash line as possible while avoiding the rims of your eyes. Slowly and gently draw a thin line from the outer corner to the inner corner.
The eyeliner on your lower lid should be much softer than on your upper lid or else you can look harsh. A good rule of thumb is that it should be one third the size of the line on your upper lid.
Your eyes will look larger if you only line the outer 2/3rds of your eyelid instead of going all the way to the inner corner.
3-7. Connect the lines only on the outside corner of your eye.
Use the tip of your eyeliner to join your upper and lower lines. Be careful not to apply too much eyeliner in the corner, which might smudge.
Avoid a complete circle of eyeliner around your eyes, which looks harsh and smears easily from your tears.
3-8. Soften the lines on your upper and lower lids.
This will make the look softer and give the liner a “lived in” look.
Use a brush, Q-tip, or even your finger to soften the line.
Another option for a softer look is to apply brown eyeshadow over the liner on your lower lid using a small, tapered brush. This works particularly well to soften black liner.
3-9. Highlight your eye.
If you want to make your eyes “pop” more, applying a little white eyeliner or shadow at the corners of your lids is an excellent trick.
This trick will also help you look more awake.
3-10. Repeat the same application process on the other eye.
Make the same size lines on the other eye so that your eyes will match. Refer back to your first eye as you apply the eyeliner so the finished look will be symmetrical.
4. Finalizing Your Look
4-1. Compare your eyes to make sure they look the same.
It can be tricky to apply your eyeliner the same way on both sides. Check your work to make sure your eyes don't look different. If they do, try to make them even.
4-2. Correct any mistakes.
If you made any mistakes in your application, go back and correct them with a little eye makeup remover and a cotton swab.
A brush can also help blend out mistakes, depending on how serious they are.
You can also use a little foundation on a Q-tip to correct mistakes. This decreases your risk of removing too much of your work.
4-3. Seal your look with eye shadow.
Properly sealing your eyeliner will ensure that it lasts for a long time and doesn't run.
Use a thin coat of powder eye shadow in a similar color to your eyeliner to seal your eyeliner look. This will also give your eyes a little more of “pop” effect.
Eye shadow can also help you create a specific look, such as a smokey eye.
4-4. Apply mascara
Applying a coat of mascara to your eyes will highlight your eyeliner and enhance your eyes even further.
Make sure to apply mascara only after you've applied all of your eye makeup, including your eyeliner.
4-5. Finish your look with a setting spray, if you have one.
A makeup setting spray will keep your makeup in place. Although it's optional, a setting spray will help your makeup last longer.
Tips
Make sure you have a clean area in which to apply your eyeliner. Makeup can carry germs, especially the longer you have it. Using makeup in an unclean space only increases the chance of an infection.
As pencils age, liner can get stuck. Heat up the pencil with a blow dryer, which will make it easier for the ink to come out.
Once you have the basics down, practice more detailed applications like cat eyes and winged tips.
Warnings
Be aware of signs of irritation, like red eyes and rashes. If you notice any of these symptoms, stop using the eyeliner and notify your healthcare provider.
Be careful to not apply eyeliner or makeup remover in your actual eye.

One of the ways to enhance your eyes is by applying eyeliner, a cosmetic that originated in Egypt in the 15th century and has since been used all over the world.

Applying it can seem tricky at first, but it just takes a bit of practice.\", \"结构\": {\"方法\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Choosing a Pencil Eyeliner\", \"步骤\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Consider what type of pencil eyeliner to use.\", \"描述\": \"There are many different types of eyeliner that come in a pencil form, each of which has a different consistency and texture, application, and effect.\\nPowder-based pencils, sometimes called kohl, offer less intense color. They're also a good option if you want to smudge the eyeliner for a “smoky eye” effect. You can make the color appear more dramatic by wetting the tip before you apply the eyeliner.\\nGel- or cream-based pencils offer simple and excellent application. These pencils apply a rich and intense color. They're a good choice if you want to apply a winged, or cat eye, look. You can also purchase gel or cream eyeliners that come in a pot and can be applied with a tapered brush applicator.\\nLiquid eyeliner pencils offer the most dramatic and intense application. Many liquid liners come in pen form (though it more closely resembles a felt marker), making application fairly simple. However, mistakes are very visible and difficult to correct because of the deep color, so you must have a steady hand during application. Tips range from very thin to thick depending on how intense you want the look or if you want to apply a cat-eye or winged look.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Consider the eyeliner formula.\", \"描述\": \"Most companies offer different eyeliner formulas for different needs including sensitive eyes and organic, animal-friendly products.

If you want to tone down these colors for an everyday look, pair them with a darker, neutral-colored liner.\\nDifferent eyeliner colors highlight each eye color differently.

2,059 | How to Apply Perfume | 1. Preparing to Apply Your Perfume
1-1. Find your perfect perfume.
Do not just wear something because it is a designer perfume. Make sure you absolutely love the perfume's top notes and bottom notes.
The top notes are what you smell initially right when you get near the spray bottle. These are usually citrus, fruit, and herb smells. They often wear off very quickly, so it is important to check the bottom notes as well.
The bottom notes are generally wood and natural smells. To find out if you like the bottom notes, spray a little of the perfume on the back of your wrist, wait 20 minutes and smell the perfume again.
You can also filter your decision by going to an actual perfume store (like Bath and Body, or at a perfume counter at a department store) and ask for help.
1-2. Choose a daytime or nighttime fragrance.
If you are simply going out on the town, going to work, or visiting the beach, try a daytime fragrance. If you are planning a date, or going out to dinner, you might try a nighttime fragrance instead.
Look for labels on the packaging. They will usually say either "daytime" or nighttime." If they do not say explicitly, you can usually tell by the color of the packages. Bright yellows, and oranges mean springtime, and are generally daytime fragrances. Dark blues, reds, and purples suggest a nighttime fragrance.
Nighttime fragrances are generally sprayed on, or near the neck area. This is because they do not last as long, and you will want a more immediate impact. In that case, apply a little extra moisturizer to the area of choice to hold the fragrance better.
Daytime fragrances are generally sprayed down by the hips or knees. This is because they rise as the day goes by, and last longer. Therefore, use some extra moisturizer near the area of choice in order for the fragrance to hold on better.
1-3. Take a shower or bath.
Your skin absorbs perfume better after it is nice and warm. Make sure when you take your shower or bath that the water is hot, so that your pores can open.
Use a body wash or soap that is unscented, or has very little scent. You do not want your perfume to clash with the smell.
This is also a great time to moisturize your skin. Use a cream or oil so that your skin becomes more openly receptive to the perfume.
Washing your hair can also help out if you plan on using the perfume in your hair. Make sure to use conditioner so that your hair if soft, and receptive of the perfume.
1-4. Dry your skin off.
After you take a warm shower or bath, make sure your skin is dry. If you do not, when you spray the perfume on it will not stick. Specifically, get the hard to reach places like the back of your knees, your neckline, and your hair. These are what are called "pulse points," or places where your perfume goes on, and acts at its highest level.
1-5. Hydrate your skin.
If you did not apply moisturizer during your shower, definitely do this after you dry off. The perfume has a much better chance to lock on to your skin if it is smooth and soft, rather than dry and rough.
A lotion or body oil work best. Apply a small amount to your hands and rub it between them. Then take your hands and apply the lotion/oil to the rest of your skin.
Another great option is petroleum jelly. The perfume will stick to the jelly molecules, rather than the pores, thereby keeping the fragrance alive longer. Apply small dabs and smooth them out on your skin.
The key is to hit the "pulse points." These include, but are not limited to: feet, knees, elbows, collarbone, and neck. These places are where you will apply the perfume, and where the perfume will be most effective.
You can also apply the perfume on your wrists or inner arm.
1-6. Apply the perfume before you put your clothes on.
Perfume sprayed directly onto clothes can cause water marks which look unseemly, particularly if you are going out to a nice dinner date. Perfume also works much better on "pulse points" rather than clothes, because the molecules interact with direct contact with skin.
2. Applying Your Perfume
2-1. Hold fragrance away from your body.
You will want to be at least 5-7 inches away from your chest/body. Point the nozzle in the direction of your body. If your skin gets to wet from the spray, you are holding it too closely.
2-2. Spray perfume onto your "pulse points."
These points are places where blood vessels are close to the skin. There is extra heat at these points, and because heat rises into the air, your fragrance will more likely be smelled. Some of the most commonly used are collarbones, knees, and necklines.
2-3. Use targeted sprays.
Rather than walking through a cloud of perfume mist, direct the spray exactly at the "pulse points." This will increase the effectiveness of the spray, and not cause you to lose so much of the smell.
2-4. Dab your perfume on.
If your perfume is not a spray type, you can always use your hands to add the perfume onto a "pulse point." Simply shake a bit of perfume out onto your hand. Rub it between your hands. Gently apply to the skin, and rub gently in a small circle.
2-5. Let your "pulse point" dry without rubbing it.
Keep your clothes off until the area is dry. Try and wait at least ten minutes. Neat and natural oils change the scents of the perfume, so you do not want to rub the perfumed area.
Rubbing your wrists together after you have perfumed them is a consistent idea perpetuated over and over again. However, rubbing your wrists together breaks down the molecules of the perfume, and dampens the smell.
2-6. Try not to overdo it with the perfume.
A little bit goes a long way when it comes to perfume. It is best to put on too little, than too much. You can always sneak a bottle in your purse, and apply some later if you feel it is not strong enough.
3. Choosing Your Targeted Location
3-1. Comb perfume through your hair.
Fragrances latch onto fibers, so your hair is a great place to smell good for long periods of time. The perfume also attaches to hair products, such as shampoo and conditioner, making the fragrance last even longer.
Simply mist the spray onto the comb/brush. You can also apply some perfume with your hand or a towel to the comb/brush. Run it gently through your hair. Make sure to get it all over, rather than just in a few spots.
Make sure not to get too much in your hair, otherwise the alcohol in the perfume will dry your hair out.
3-2. Dab some perfume behind your ears.
Veins are very close to your skin in this "pulse point." Put a small amount of perfume on the edge of your fingertips, and dab it behind your ears. Placing perfume behind your ears gets immediate effects and it best for nighttime perfumes.
3-3. Rub in perfume near your collarbone.
Your neck/collarbone area has a lot of dips because of the bone structure. This gives the perfume plenty of room to rest, and interact with your skin. You can either dab some perfume on with your fingertips, or spray a little on, 5-7 inches away.
3-4. Spray perfume down your back.
The back is not the typical place to put perfume. However, because it is a place entirely covered up by clothes, it has a long shelf life, and not be so overbearing when you go out. Simply reach your hand around and spritz a couple sprays down your backbone. You can also get a friend to do it for you if you cannot reach around.
3-5. Apply perfume behind your knees.
Because your knees are constantly moving throughout the day, there is a lot of heat generated. This works with the perfume, and gradually moves the scent upwards as the day goes on. Simply dap a bit of perfume with your fingertips behind the knee, or spray about 5-7 inches away.
3-6. Administer perfume inside of your elbows.
Just like your knees, your elbows are "pulse points" that constantly move throughout the day, generating heat. Dab some perfume in your elbows with your fingertips, or spray it on 5-7 inches away.
3-7. Apply perfume in your belly button.
This is a rather odd place to put perfume, but it is a great place for your perfume to rest and interact with a "pulse point." It is also covered up with a shirt, so it is not so overbearing. Take a bit of perfume and place it on your fingertips. Run your fingers around and inside your belly button to apply the perfume.
4. Utilizing Your Perfume
4-1. Familiarize yourself with your perfume.
Skin reacts in different ways to different perfumes. Notice whether you can smell the perfume after a few hours is up. Check that your skin is not reacting negatively to a particular perfume.
4-2. Reapply scent every four hours.
Even the best perfumes do not last very long. Ask a friend or family member whether they think you need some more. Oftentimes you can get used to the smell of your perfume, but it still might be strong.
4-3. Use alcohol wipes and hand sanitizer.
If you think that there is too much perfume on you, simply take an alcohol wipe (baby wipe) and some hand sanitizer and wash that area off. You can then dry, and reapply the perfume. Make sure this time not to spray or dab too much.
4-4. Keep perfume out of sunlight, and cool.
This is because heat and light change the chemical make-up of the perfume. The perfume then changes smell, which does not bode well for your date night. The best place to store your perfume is in a refrigerator.
4-5. Check the expiration date on your perfume.
Like other products, perfume goes out of date. If you notice that there is a sharp smell when you open the bottle, that is another sign that your perfume is way too old.
Tips
Do not leave your perfume bottle in direct sunlight, because it makes its scent die out faster.
If perfume doesn't sound like your thing, but you still want a nice, subtle scent: try a scented body wash and matching lotion.
Try out new scents every once in a while. The same perfume grows old, and you might not be able to smell it after you get used to it.
Warnings
Don't wear overpowering perfume that makes people around you uncomfortable.
The key is to avoid dousing yourself in perfume. Just do a few light sprays here & there, and you'll do fine.
Don't spray perfume with your clothes on. It can stain your clothing, and the perfume sticks to the clothes, not you.
Everyone has a personal "scent circle": approximately an arm's length from the body. No one should be aware of your fragrance unless he or she steps inside your "circle." Fragrances should be one of the most subtle, personal messages you send to those with whom you come in contact.
Never rub your wrists together (or just rub once to spread the perfume to the other wrist), rubbing wrists does not break molecules or remove perfume, but it does generate heat, which will cause the notes of the perfume to react differently due to faster evaporation.
Many liquid perfumes are based in petrol or oil. Solid perfumes are less likely to possess these constituents.

Simply reach your hand around and spritz a couple sprays down your backbone. You can also get a friend to do it for you if you cannot reach around.\\n3-5. Apply perfume behind your knees.\\nBecause your knees are constantly moving throughout the day, there is a lot of heat generated. This works with the perfume, and gradually moves the scent upwards as the day goes on. Simply dap a bit of perfume with your fingertips behind the knee, or spray about 5-7 inches away.\\n3-6. Administer perfume inside of your elbows.\\nJust like your knees, your elbows are \\\"pulse points\\\" that constantly move throughout the day, generating heat. Dab some perfume in your elbows with your fingertips, or spray it on 5-7 inches away.\\n3-7. Apply perfume in your belly button.\\nThis is a rather odd place to put perfume, but it is a great place for your perfume to rest and interact with a \\\"pulse point.\\\" It is also covered up with a shirt, so it is not so overbearing. Take a bit of perfume and place it on your fingertips. Run your fingers around and inside your belly button to apply the perfume.\\n4. Utilizing Your Perfume\\n4-1. Familiarize yourself with your perfume.\\nSkin reacts in different ways to different perfumes. Notice whether you can smell the perfume after a few hours is up. Check that your skin is not reacting negatively to a particular perfume.\\n4-2. Reapply scent every four hours.\\nEven the best perfumes do not last very long. Ask a friend or family member whether they think you need some more. Oftentimes you can get used to the smell of your perfume, but it still might be strong.\\n4-3. Use alcohol wipes and hand sanitizer.\\nIf you think that there is too much perfume on you, simply take an alcohol wipe (baby wipe) and some hand sanitizer and wash that area off. You can then dry, and reapply the perfume. Make sure this time not to spray or dab too much.\\n4-4. Keep perfume out of sunlight, and cool.\\nThis is because heat and light change the chemical make-up of the perfume. The perfume then changes smell, which does not bode well for your date night. The best place to store your perfume is in a refrigerator.\\n4-5. Check the expiration date on your perfume.\\nLike other products, perfume goes out of date. If you notice that there is a sharp smell when you open the bottle, that is another sign that your perfume is way too old.\\nTips\\nDo not leave your perfume bottle in direct sunlight, because it makes its scent die out faster.\\nIf perfume doesn't sound like your thing, but you still want a nice, subtle scent: try a scented body wash and matching lotion.\\nTry out new scents every once in a while. The same perfume grows old, and you might not be able to smell it after you get used to it.\\nWarnings\\nDon't wear overpowering perfume that makes people around you uncomfortable.\\nThe key is to avoid dousing yourself in perfume. Just do a few light sprays here & there, and you'll do fine.\\nDon't spray perfume with your clothes on. It can stain your clothing, and the perfume sticks to the clothes, not you.\\nEveryone has a personal \\\"scent circle\\\": approximately an arm's length from the body. No one should be aware of your fragrance unless he or she steps inside your \\\"circle.\\\" Fragrances should be one of the most subtle, personal messages you send to those with whom you come in contact.\\nNever rub your wrists together (or just rub once to spread the perfume to the other wrist), rubbing wrists does not break molecules or remove perfume, but it does generate heat, which will cause the notes of the perfume to react differently due to faster evaporation.\\nMany liquid perfumes are based in petrol or oil. Solid perfumes are less likely to possess these constituents.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Perfume may be just the thing to finish off your outfit, even if it's a T-shirt and your favorite jeans. Applying perfume can liven up a date night, and help attract your desired partner.

2,060 | How to Apply Plasti Dip | 1. Spraying Plasti Dip
1-1. Put on a safety mask before using Plasti Dip spray.
Whenever you work with a sprayable substance, set up your workspace in a clean, well-ventilated area. After slipping on a safety mask or other specialized gas mask, check that your mouth and nose are fully covered and protected. Since you’re working with a sprayable product, you don’t want to accidentally inhale any rubber coating.
While you don’t have to wear gloves, you can slip some on as a safety precaution.
1-2. Mask smaller areas with pieces of painter’s tape.
Cut or rip away several sections of painter’s tape, then arrange these pieces in a square or rectangular shape around a surface you’d like to protect and recolor. If you’re painting a larger surface, like the hood of a car, tape drop cloths or plastic sheeting around the designated area.
For instance, if you’re repainting the silver emblem on the side of your car, place strips of tape a few inches or centimeters away from each side of the emblem. Next, cover the nearby car doors and windows by taping sheeting and/or drop cloths into place.
If you’re painting over a large surface, don’t worry about masking off specific areas.
1-3. Shake the Plasti Dip can firmly for 60 seconds.
Hold the can in 1 hand and move it in a rapid up and down motion. Once you hear the can rattling, start counting to 60. If you don’t shake the can before spraying the Plasti Dip, you might end up with a lumpy, inconsistent application.
Ideally, try shaking your can throughout the painting process, like between different coats. This will keep your Plasti Dip smooth.
1-4. Keep the can a short distance away from the surface.
Hold the Plasti Dip 6 to 10 in (15 to 25 cm) away from the surface, then press along the top of the can to release the rubber coating. Work in slow, overlapping, horizontal strokes that cover the entire surface that you’re trying to cover. Don’t worry if the surface’s original color is still visible, as this first coat helps the Plasti Dip bond to the metal.
When you hold the can at a distance, you get a more consistent spray along the surface.
1-5. Wait 30 minutes after spraying on 1 full coat.
Allow the rubber coating to harden and stick to the desired surface. Don’t touch or spray on any more coating until at least a half hour has passed, or the Plasti Dip might not seal correctly.
Always wait 30 minutes between each layer of Plasti Dip, even if it’s the second or third coat.
1-6. Spray on 2-3 more coats of Plasti-Dip onto the surface.
Continue spraying the rubber coating in slow, horizontal movements. Try to overlap each stroke of Plasti-Dip, so the color looks vibrant and consistent. After you apply each new layer, wait at least 30 minutes before adding another coat.
Since Plasti Dip application requires a lot of waiting, consider working on something else in the meantime.
1-7. Let the finished product dry for at least 4 hours.
Don’t display your new project right away. Instead, set a timer for 4 hours, so the Plasti Dip can seal completely. If you don’t plan on using the item right away, feel free to air-dry it overnight.
If you don’t like the way your Plasti Dip coating looks, you can always remove it.
2. Dipping the Item
2-1. Set some plastic sheeting or paper beneath your Plasti Dip.
Prevent messes ahead of time by preparing a clean and efficient workspace. Before you dip anything, lay a large plastic sheet or old newspaper down on a flat surface, like a table. Once this sheet is in place, arrange the Plasti Dip and other items onto the surface.
2-2. Remove any existing rubber coating.
If you’re resealing a smaller item, like the handles on a set of pliers, first use a utility knife to slice and peel any existing rubber off of the object. Once you’ve completely cleared off the surface, wash and dry the item ahead of time.
You don’t want dirt and other particles sticking to your new layer of rubber coating.
If you want to be extra cautious, consider slipping on some work gloves.
2-3. Mix the Plasti Dip in the can to make it smooth.
Take a long item, like paint stirrer, and place it into the can of Plasti Dip. Swirl the item around slowly so the rubber product has a smooth and consistent texture. Keep mixing the Plasti Dip for at least 30 seconds, or until the substance looks completely smooth.
Don’t stir too quickly, or the product could slosh out of the can.
2-4. Tie a string or wire to the item you’d like to coat.
Loop a sturdy strand of wire around the top of the item, or around a place that you don’t plan on coating with Plasti Dip. Try lifting up the object with this wire or string to check that it’s attached securely.
You’ll also need this wire to dry the item later on.
2-5. Lower the item gradually into the can.
Hold the loose end of the wire securely in 1 hand, then slowly submerge the item into the can of Plasti Dip. Count to 5 as you lower 1 in (2.5 cm) of the item into the rubber coating. Continue counting to 5 and lowering the item by 1 in (2.5 cm) until you’ve successfully submerged and coated the desired amount of surface.
This gradual process helps ensure a smooth Plasti Dip application on any item.
This might not take very long if you’re coating a small object.
2-6. Remove the item slowly from the can.
Don’t leave the item in the coating for an extended period of time; instead, gradually pull it out of the can. Once again, count to 5 in your head while removing a 1 in (2.5 cm) section from the rubber mixture. Continue pulling on the end of the wire until the object is completely out of the can.
The dipping and removing processes should take the same amount of time to complete.
2-7. Wait 30 minutes for the Plasti Dip to dry completely.
Twist the loose end of wire along a thin railing or some other space with lots of open air. Leave the newly coated item alone for 30 minutes, so the rubber product can seal and adhere properly. Whenever you add a new coat of Plasti Dip, always let the item dry.
If you’re working outside, consider tying your item to the handle of a walk-behind lawnmower.
2-8. Apply 2-3 coats to finish coating your project.
After the initial coat of Plasti Dip dries, submerge your item back into the can of coating. Repeat the same process as you did before, and use gradual motions to lower and raise your object in the rubber coating. After each new coat, use the wire to hang up your item in an open area so it can dry completely.
Since the dipping method is used for smaller objects, you don’t need to worry as much about the drying time between coats.
3. Brushing on Plasti Dip
3-1. Lay plastic sheeting down to protect your workspace.
Arrange a large section of plastic sheeting over a table or other flat area where you plan on working. Once this sheeting is in place, arrange your other supplies, like the Plasti Dip can, plastic tray, paint roller, and the object you’d like to paint over.
This method is good for painting car accessories, like your splash guards.
If you want to take extra steps to protect your skin, consider wearing work gloves.
3-2. Stir the can of Plasti Dip with a paint stirrer.
Open up the can of rubber coating and place a long, thin item inside, like a paint stirrer. Using slow, gradual motions, stir the rubber coating in a slow circle, working to make the substance as smooth as possible. Don’t mix the Plasti Dip too quickly, or the product could spill over the edge and make a mess.
3-3. Pour a small amount of Plasti Dip into a plastic container.
Fill up your plastic paint tray with less than 1 cm (0.39 in) of Plasti Dip. Don’t pour in too much at first, as you can always refill the tray later on.
The brushing method works best on smaller objects, so your paint tray and roller don’t need to be very large.
3-4. Dip a short-haired roller into the container.
Place your paint roller into the tray and push it forward. Roll the tool back and forth, until the roller is completely covered in Plasti Dip. Try to paint with the roller completely coated, or else the paint job won’t look very smooth.
Whenever you run out of Plasti Dip on your painting tool, dip and roll it in the plastic tray.
If you don’t have a roller on hand, you can also use a paint brush.
3-5. Paint over your item with long, even strokes.
Focus on making your coating look as consistent as possible. As you work, try guiding the paint in smooth, fluid directions, so no roller marks are obvious on the item.
If you’re using a brush, try painting in 1 direction. This will prevent any obvious brush marks from showing up.
3-6. Wait 30 minutes so the first coat can dry.
Leave your item on your workspace, then step away for about half an hour. Give the rubber coating time to seal to the object’s surface, so the paint job will last longer. Keep in mind that if you’re coating both sides of an item, you might need to let the 1 side of the item dry before flipping and painting over the opposite edge.
If you don’t want to lose track of time, try setting a timer.
3-7. Add 2-3 extra coats of paint to ensure even coverage.
Repeat the brushing process as you apply multiple layers of product to your item of choice. Like you did before, wait 30 minutes before painting on any additional coats.
If you’re painting both sides of an item, expect the painting, drying, and flipping process to take longer than it would to paint just 1 side.
3-8. Don’t use the item for at least 4 hours.
Keep the painted item in an area with lots of open air. Next, step away from your workspace for at least 4 hours, so the rubber coating can completely seal and harden. When enough time has passed, feel free to use your newly coated items as you see fit!

2,061 | How to Apply Plexaderm | 1. Preparing Your Skin and the Pump
1-1. Wash your face to get rid of any leftover makeup, dirt, or oils.
Use a facial soap and water to gently cleanse away any dirt or makeup from your face. Pay special attention to areas where you’ll be applying the Plexaderm, making sure these are clean.
Leaving oil or skin care product residue under Plexaderm can make it less effective.
It's a good idea to wash your hands as well, since you'll be applying the cream with your fingers.
1-2. Dry your face thoroughly with a soft towel.
Plexaderm won’t work properly unless your skin is completely dry. After you’ve washed it, blot your skin gently with a clean towel until it’s dry.
1-3. Prime the bottle before using it.
Place the Plexaderm bottle on a flat, level surface and remove the cap.
Using your thumb, slowly and firmly push the pump down until it cannot go any further.
Continue pushing down the pump until product begins to flow, typically about 10-15 pumps; however, it could take longer so be patient.
Once the desired amount of product has been dispensed, replace the cp for safe storage.
Do not tamper with the self-sealing valve, as this could damage the pump.
2. Spreading the Plexaderm
2-1. Press down on the pump to dispense a small drop onto your finger.
Press down on it slowly to avoid squeezing out a large amount of Plexaderm—you’ll only want to use a small amount to start with. Dispense about half the size of a pea.
Once the desired amount of product has been dispensed, replace the cap for safe storage.
2-2. Apply the Plexaderm to your skin using upward and outward strokes.
Use your fingers to spread the Plexaderm over fine lines, wrinkles, and any puffy areas of your face or neck. Be careful to avoid your eyes, as it may irritate them.
If Plexaderm does get in your eyes, rinse your eyes out with cool, clean water.
2-3. Blend the cream into your skin until it fully absorbs.
You don’t need to rub it until it dries on your skin, just make sure it’s evenly spread out in a thin layer. If you use too much, you’ll notice the white residue on your skin—you can gently dab this away with a damp cloth.
2-4. Let the Plexaderm set for 5-10 minutes while remaining expressionless.
While you can wait as little as 5 minutes, it’s best to wait 10 just to be sure the Plexaderm is working and has time to set. Don’t touch the spot where you applied it, and avoid talking, smiling, or moving your facial muscles.
If you do move your face before the 10 minutes are up and break the bond, you can apply a little bit more and wait another 5 minutes.
After the 10 minutes are up, you can move your face again.
2-5. Reapply after 10 minutes if the first application doesn’t show results.
If you don’t see any noticeable change, you can follow the same steps to apply the Plexaderm to the same spot again. It’s important to wait the full 10 minutes to be sure that you need to reapply.
Only apply Plexaderm a second time if it’s really necessary—you don’t want to overuse the product on your skin.
Overusing Plexaderm could cause your skin to look a bit unnatural, and excess product isn't good for the health of your skin.
2-6. Use water-based moisturizers and makeup.
Water-based products work best with Plexaderm.
Use moisturizer at night, or at least 20 minutes before applying Plexaderm if you’re using them together.
For makeup, try mixing 1/3 liquid foundation or concealer with 2/3 Plexaderm and apply with your fingertip. Allow the Plexaderm mixture to set for 10 minutes. The ratio of Plexaderm to makeup ratio may vary depending on the brand of makeup.
2-7. Store Plexaderm at room temperature.
Once the desired amount of the product has been dispensed, replace the cap and store the bottle at room temperature.
Tips
Plexaderm can last for up to 8 hours.
Use Plexaderm anywhere on your face or neck, being careful to avoid your eyes.
Rinse the product off whenever you'd normally wash your face, such as before bedtime.
Warnings
Discontinue use if redness or irritation occurs.
Use as directed.
Avoid contact with the eyes. If eye contact occurs, flush gently and thoroughly with water.
Keep out of reach of children.

2,062 | How to Apply Plumber's Putty | 1. Molding the Putty into Shape
1-1. Purchase plumbers putty at a home supply or hardware store.
Most local or chain stores, like Home Depot, should carry plumbers putty. Different brands use slightly different ingredients. Putty marked as stain-free should be safe to use on any material. Ask someone in the store if you have specific questions about your project.
1-2. Warm the putty in your hands until it is soft and malleable.
When first out of the can, putty is usually cold and hard. Take a handful of it and roll it into a ball. Rub it between your palms quickly and firmly. Stop once you’re able to pull and stretch the putty easily.
1-3. Stretch putty into a long, skinny shape.
Now that your putty is warm, stretch it until it is long enough to cover the area you need to apply it to. If long and skinny putty won’t fit over your surface, mold it into a shape that will.
2. Applying the Putty
2-1. Clean the surface you’ll put the putty on.
Plumbers putty needs to be applied to a clean area. Wash the surface you’ll be applying the putty to with soap and water. If you’re applying the putty to an old fixture, go over it several times until it is free of any dirt.
2-2. Dry the surface with a rag or towel.
Plumbers putty will not stick well to a wet area. Make sure the towel or rag you use is clean so you don’t get your surface dirty again while drying it.
2-3. Disassemble parts if necessary.
If you're using putty to fix a leak, you will need to take apart some parts to access the area where putty is needed. Usually, putty is used on toilets and drains. For toilets, loosen the bolts at the base and gently remove the bowl from the floor. For drains, undo the nuts under the sink and push up on the drain to remove it from the base of the sink.
You can often find step-by-step disassembly guides online for different types and models of fixtures.
2-4. Spread putty around the surface you need it on.
In many cases, putty is put on a circular area, like the drain of a sink. Wrap the putty around the circle and make sure you don't leave any gaps. Do not wrap the putty into multiple layers. If you are not applying putty to a circular surface, still use just one layer and leave no gaps.
2-5. Press the putty firmly into place.
Use your fingertips to apply pressure and stop when the putty seems secure. It will be tightened into place even further later, but now you’re making sure it will hold its position while you press into a drain fixture or anything else you need it for.
2-6. Set fixture where it belongs and tighten into place.
For sink drains, for instance, you will press the drain into the base of the sink and tighten it underneath using a bolt and channel locks. For toilet bowls, spread the putty around the base of the toilet, where it will touch the floor. Touch your fixture to make sure it isn’t loose at all.
3. Cleaning and Maintaining Putty
3-1. Clean away excess putty.
When setting a plumbing fixture in place, excess plumbers putty usually seeps out from the sides. Use any rag or towel you’d like to wipe up this excess putty and discard it.
3-2. Wash area with soap and water.
Now that you’re done using the putty, you will want to make sure you leave a clean area behind. Scrub your work area with a soapy sponge to make sure there are no residual traces of the putty.
3-3. Disassemble parts and apply new putty if you notice leaks.
If you notice water seeping out from under your toilet or your drain, you may need new plumber’s putty. If so, take apart your fixture, remove the existing putty thoroughly, and reapply new putty.
If new plumber’s putty does not fix the problem, investigate other sources for the leak, such as broken gaskets or seals.

2,063 | How to Apply Plumbers Tape | 1. Sealing Threads with Plumber’s Tape
1-1. Use plumber’s tape to seal male pipe fitting threads.
Male pipe fittings are the pieces that screw into another piece, which is called a female pipe fitting. Always put plumber’s tape on the male threads before screwing them into the female threads.
Plumber’s tape is also known as thread seal tape, Teflon tape, and PTFE tape.
You don’t need to use plumber’s tape on unthreaded joints, which you should use a liquid sealant for. Plumber’s tape is meant specifically for creating a tight seal between threaded plumbing joints.
1-2. Pull the end of the tape off the roll.
Pick up your roll of plumber’s tape in your dominant hand and find the end of the tape on the roll. Peel up just enough of it that you can easily grab it between your fingers to work with.
1-3. Press the end of the tape onto the threads so that the tape will wrap clockwise.
Pick up the threaded pipe fitting in your non-dominant hand. Orient the end of the tape so that it faces counterclockwise. Stick the end of the tape firmly onto the threads to get it started.
For example, hold the pipe fitting horizontally in your left hand with the threads facing your right hand, then position the tape with the end facing down, so you will wrap the tape away from you.
Wrapping the tape clockwise prevents it from unraveling when you screw the male pipe fitting into a female fitting.
1-4. Wrap the tape tightly around the threads 2-3 complete revolutions.
Hold the pipe fitting steady and rotate the hand holding the roll of tape around the threads to wrap them. Pull the tape tight after each full revolution around the pipe fitting.
You should be able to clearly see the threads after you wrap them. If all you see is tape or you can just barely see the threads, it is not wrapped tightly enough.
1-5. Pull the tape tight to break it and separate the roll from the tape on the pipe.
Pinch the tape between the pipe threads and the roll tightly between your fingers. Pull it to stretch and tear the tape. Press any excess tape tightly onto the threads.
You can now screw the male fitting into its corresponding female piece and it will have a tight seal between the threads.
2. Using Plumber’s Tape for Specific Applications
2-1. Create a tight seal between water lines and sinks with plumber’s tape.
Wrap plumber’s tape 2-3 times around the male threads of all the fittings underneath a newly-installed sink before you attach the water lines. This will ensure a tight seal so there aren’t any leaks when you’re running water from the faucet at high pressure.
You can also use plumber’s tape to fix leaky connections between water lines and sinks. Shut off the water supply, place a container under the water lines to catch any water in them, and disconnect the lines. Remove any old plumber’s tape and wrap the threads tightly 2-3 times with new plumber’s tape. Reconnect everything and turn on the water supply, then test the faucet.
Plumber's tape can be used on waterlines provided it's not a copper fitting.
2-2. Apply plumber’s tape to shower head and arm connections to seal them.
Shower heads and arms, which are the metal tubes that shower heads attach to, are another area that tend to have problems with leaky connections. Make sure to wrap all the male threads on new shower heads and shower arms 2-3 times with plumber’s tape before screwing them together.
You can also fix leaky shower heads and arms with plumber’s tape. Just make sure the water is off, then unscrew the shower head and arm and wrap the male threads 2-3 times with plumber’s tape, then screw everything back together and test the shower.
2-3. Use plumber’s tape as a quick temporary fix for leaks in pipes.
Wrap plumber’s tape 2-3 times tightly around leaks in the joint where 2 pipes connect or where there is a small crack in a pipe. It will bond to the outside of the pipes and contain the leak for the time being.
Plumber’s tape should never be used as a permanent fix for leaks. Just patch them up to contain the problem until you can replace the leaky pipes to provide a long-lasting fix.
Tips
Keep a roll of plumber’s tape handy in your home in case you have any plumbing leaks that you can’t fix right away.
Make sure you always use white Teflon tape for plumbing applications. Yellow and green Teflon tape are for gas and oxygen tubes.
Use plumber’s tape to fix leaky connections in sinks and showers.
Warnings
Always wrap plumber’s tape clockwise on the threads, opposite the direction that the male fitting screws into the female piece, otherwise it can unravel when you screw the fittings together.

2,064 | How to Apply Polyurethane | 1. Setting Up Your Workspace
1-1. Clean your workspace.
Remove as much dirt and dust as possible from the area. Vacuum, mop, and/or wipe every surface clean. Reduce the number of particles that might end up sticking to your coats of polyurethane.
Dust and other particles that dry in the polyurethane will result in an uneven surface.
1-2. Ventilate the room.
Create a cross-breeze to get rid of the polyurethane’s fumes while you work. Open a window and install an exhaust fan facing outward. Then, if possible, open a window on the opposite side of the room.
Never place a fan in your immediate work area, since this may lead to dust being blown onto your wood as you coat it.
Purchase a respirator with an organic cartridge if you are unable to improve the room’s ventilation and/or if you are sensitive to fumes.
1-3. Create a work surface.
If the wood to be treated can be transported, lay out a protective covering for it to rest on while you work. Use a tarp, dropcloth, cardboard, or similar material. Whichever you use, make sure that it covers a few feet beyond the wood itself on all sides. Protect the surface underneath and make clean-up a cinch.
Also make sure the surrounding area is clear of any objects that you want to keep clean, just in case you make a bigger mess than you mean to.
2. Prepping the Wood
2-1. Remove old finishes.
Strip the wood of any preexisting shellac, lacquer, wax, varnish, or paint. For this, feel free to move your project outdoors for the time being. Work with better air circulation while making your clean-up that much easier.
2-2. Sand the wood.
Start with a medium (100-grit) sandpaper if the wood feels especially rough. After that, resand it with fine (150-grit) sandpaper, and then again with extra-fine (220-grit) paper. Inspect the wood for any scratches in between each sanding. If necessary, use the extra-fine paper to smooth scratched areas.
2-3. Clean up.
Vacuum the wood and surrounding area to remove all of the dust created by sanding. Use a soft-brush attachment when vacuuming the wood itself to avoid scratching the surface. Then dampen a lint-free cloth and wipe the wood down to remove any dust that the vacuum missed. Repeat with a second wipe-down using a dry microfiber cloth.
If your polyurethane is oil-based, use mineral spirits to dampen your lint-free cloth.
For water-based polyurethane, dampen your cloth with water.
Some people use tack cloths for the dry wipe-down, but be aware that some tack cloths may include chemicals that will interfere with the polyurethane’s adhesion.
3. Deciding on Techniques
3-1. Brush flat surfaces.
Cover the most surface area at a time by using a brush. Reduce the number of coats needed, since brushes create thicker coats. Favor natural bristles for oil-based polys, and synthetic ones for water-based polys. When brushing:
Dunk the bristles roughly an inch (2.5 cm) into the polyurethane to load the brush.
Brush with the grain in long, even strokes.
After each stroke, run the brush back over any drips that need to be smoothed out.
Overlap half of each previous stroke to reduce the chance of gaps and uneven coating.
After each coat, reinspect it for any drips that need repairing.
3-2. Wipe contoured surfaces.
Avoid the drips that may occur from brushing areas that aren’t perfectly flat. Expect this technique to create thinner coats, so double the amount of coats that you would otherwise apply with a brush. When wiping:
Fold a clean cloth into a square, roughly palm-sized, to apply your coats.
Dip an edge into the polyurethane.
Wipe it onto the wood, following the grain.
With each wipe, overlap half of the previous wipe for even coating.
3-3. Spray less accessible places.
Purchase an aerosol can of polyurethane to coat areas that are difficult to reach with a brush or cloth. Err on the side of caution and spray in very short bursts to avoid creating drips, since these will also be out of reach and difficult to repair. Be sure to cover surrounding areas with a protective surface before applying.
Spray-on polyurethane creates very thin coats.
Practice on a test area first to improve your technique.
4. Applying Polyurethane
4-1. Stir the polyurethane.
After you open the can, use a stir stick to mix the polyurethane’s components evenly, which may have settled and separated over time. Always stir, rather than shake. Expect shaking to create bubbles in the liquid, which may be transferred intact to the wood, creating an uneven coat.
4-2. Seal the wood.
Use a clean container to create a mixture of polyurethane and mineral spirits. Combine two parts polyurethane with one part mineral spirits in the new container. Brush or wipe a single coat of this mixture onto the wood. Wait for it to dry before proceeding.
Pure polyurethane takes roughly 24 hours to dry, but it should take less than that when diluted with mineral spirits.
4-3. Sand the wood again.
From this point forward, always sand the wood before applying a new coat. Remove any runs, drips, bubbles, or visible brushstrokes that may have developed. Use extra-fine (220-grit) sandpaper to reduce the chance of scratching the surface. Once done, vacuum and wipe the wood again to remove all particles.
4-4. Apply the first coat.
After sealing the wood, use pure polyurethane. However, continue to pour small batches into a clean container, rather than dipping your brush or cloth directly into the original can. Avoid tainting your main supply with any dust or other particles that your brush or cloth might pick up.
When brushing, go over the whole surface area with your brush again, without reloading it, once the first coat is complete. Smooth out any drips or runs.
After that, give the polyurethane 24 hours to air-dry.
4-5. Repeat.
Once the first coat has dried, sand the wood again. Then add a second in the same manner. Wait another 24 hours to dry. If you used a brush, two coats is fine. For any areas where a cloth or spray was used, repeat twice for a total of four coats.
After the final coat use a piece of cardboard instead of sandpaper to buff the surface. This will give a nice polyurethane finish.
Tips
The finish should look great after you've completed it, but you may need to polish polyurethane regularly to keep it looking smooth and shiny.

Deciding on Techniques\\n3-1. Brush flat surfaces.\\nCover the most surface area at a time by using a brush. Reduce the number of coats needed, since brushes create thicker coats. Favor natural bristles for oil-based polys, and synthetic ones for water-based polys. When brushing: \\nDunk the bristles roughly an inch (2.5 cm) into the polyurethane to load the brush.\\nBrush with the grain in long, even strokes.\\nAfter each stroke, run the brush back over any drips that need to be smoothed out.\\nOverlap half of each previous stroke to reduce the chance of gaps and uneven coating.\\nAfter each coat, reinspect it for any drips that need repairing.\\n3-2. Wipe contoured surfaces.\\nAvoid the drips that may occur from brushing areas that aren’t perfectly flat. Expect this technique to create thinner coats, so double the amount of coats that you would otherwise apply with a brush. When wiping:\\nFold a clean cloth into a square, roughly palm-sized, to apply your coats.\\nDip an edge into the polyurethane.\\nWipe it onto the wood, following the grain.\\nWith each wipe, overlap half of the previous wipe for even coating.\\n3-3. Spray less accessible places.\\nPurchase an aerosol can of polyurethane to coat areas that are difficult to reach with a brush or cloth. Err on the side of caution and spray in very short bursts to avoid creating drips, since these will also be out of reach and difficult to repair. Be sure to cover surrounding areas with a protective surface before applying.\\nSpray-on polyurethane creates very thin coats.\\nPractice on a test area first to improve your technique.\\n4. Applying Polyurethane\\n4-1. Stir the polyurethane.\\nAfter you open the can, use a stir stick to mix the polyurethane’s components evenly, which may have settled and separated over time. Always stir, rather than shake. Expect shaking to create bubbles in the liquid, which may be transferred intact to the wood, creating an uneven coat.\\n4-2. Seal the wood.\\nUse a clean container to create a mixture of polyurethane and mineral spirits. Combine two parts polyurethane with one part mineral spirits in the new container. Brush or wipe a single coat of this mixture onto the wood. Wait for it to dry before proceeding. \\nPure polyurethane takes roughly 24 hours to dry, but it should take less than that when diluted with mineral spirits.\\n4-3. Sand the wood again.\\nFrom this point forward, always sand the wood before applying a new coat. Remove any runs, drips, bubbles, or visible brushstrokes that may have developed. Use extra-fine (220-grit) sandpaper to reduce the chance of scratching the surface. Once done, vacuum and wipe the wood again to remove all particles.\\n4-4. Apply the first coat.\\nAfter sealing the wood, use pure polyurethane. However, continue to pour small batches into a clean container, rather than dipping your brush or cloth directly into the original can. Avoid tainting your main supply with any dust or other particles that your brush or cloth might pick up.\\nWhen brushing, go over the whole surface area with your brush again, without reloading it, once the first coat is complete. Smooth out any drips or runs.\\nAfter that, give the polyurethane 24 hours to air-dry.\\n4-5. Repeat.\\nOnce the first coat has dried, sand the wood again. Then add a second in the same manner. Wait another 24 hours to dry. If you used a brush, two coats is fine. For any areas where a cloth or spray was used, repeat twice for a total of four coats.\\nAfter the final coat use a piece of cardboard instead of sandpaper to buff the surface. This will give a nice polyurethane finish.\\nTips\\nThe finish should look great after you've completed it, but you may need to polish polyurethane regularly to keep it looking smooth and shiny.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Polyurethane is a protective finish applied to wood to guard against it wear and other damage. Whether it is oil-based or water-based, it comes in a variety of finishes, from glossy to matte.

2,065 | How to Apply Powder Blush | 1. Picking a Type of Blush
1-1. Use powder blush if you have oily skin.
Forms of blush made out of liquid and cream do not hold up well on oily skin. Powder blush, on the other hand, deals with natural oil extremely well, lasting far longer without the need for constant reapplication.
If you have oily skin, you'll likely notice that your skin looks shiny throughout the day, especially along your T-zone, or the area across your forehead and down to your nose and chin.
1-2. Pick a blush shade that matches your skin tone.
If you’re going for a natural look, you’ll want to pick a blush color that complements your skin tone. In general, light pink blush looks good on people with fair skin, peach and bronze tones work best on those with medium skin, and dark burgundy and mauve shades appear most natural on people with dark skin.
1-3. Choose a blush formula that matches your skin type.
If you have extremely oily skin, go with a loose blush powder to ensure your makeup doesn’t look cakey. For dry skin, a pressed powder can conceal any unwanted wrinkles or flakes. If you have sensitive skin, look for a mineral-based blush formula.
Pressed and loose blush both have mineral variants.
Your blush will look more natural if your skin is hydrated. If your skin is dry, try spritzing it with a setting spray or a hydrating spray before you apply your blush.
1-4. Pick a finish that emphasizes the look you’re going for.
Go with a matte blush for most day-to-day activities since it will add color to your face without drastically altering your overall look. To make your face appear softer, look for a satin powder blush. If you want to bring a lot of attention to your makeup, try using shimmer or glitter blush.
2. Choosing Where to Apply the Blush
2-1. Put blush on the apples of your cheeks for a cute, young look.
Apples are the small, circular parts of your cheek that stick out when you smile. If you cover your apples with a thin coat of blush, you’ll emphasize your smile and create the perky, childlike look most people associate with rouge.
This style of makeup works particularly well for people with oval faces.
Avoid using this style if you have a round face.
Unless you’re going for clown couture, apply only a small amount of blush to your apples.
2-2. Emphasize your face shape by putting blush high on your cheekbones.
To find your cheekbone, look for an imaginary line that connects the center of your ear to your nostril. Though most people apply blush directly below this line, you can add it on top to bring a lot of emphasis to your cheekbones and general facial structure.
This style of makeup is reminiscent of high fashion and will make you look more chic.
High cheekbone blush works particularly well for people with long faces. It is not quite as effective on people with short faces.
2-3. Apply blush to the cheekbones and temples to flatter a wide face.
If you have a square or round face, long, emphasized cheekbones may not be the best course of action. Instead, apply makeup to the center of your cheek and curve it up toward your brow, creating a “C” shape. This will slim your face down while flattering your natural curves and the apples of your cheeks.
2-4. Brush blush out from the apples to flatter a long face.
If you have an oblong, oval, or heart-shaped face, place blush on or just below the apples of your cheeks. Then, blend the makeup out to your ears, slanting the blush up toward the temple as you go. This will bring emphasis to your cheekbones, making your face appear wider while giving you a bolder, more confident look.
2-5. Apply blush around your brows to better define your face.
Many people think you can only use blush on your cheeks. However, you can also apply rouge to your forehead, giving your face greater definition. For a lifted or sun-kissed look, apply blush to your temples and buff it in. To emphasize your face’s overall shape, apply a small amount of makeup next to your hairline.
When applying blush to your forehead, place a small napkin over your hairline to keep it from getting dirty.
This style works with any face shape and you can combine it with any previous blush application option.
3. Brushing on the Blush
3-1. Apply setting powder if you’re wearing non-powder makeup.
If you’re applying rouge on top of a type of liquid or cream makeup, such as foundation, make sure to put on a coat of translucent setting powder first. Without the setting powder, your blush will create streaks of color that you won’t be able to blend properly.
You do not need to apply setting powder if you used powder makeup.
3-2. Tie your hair back.
When applying blush, the goal is usually to make a smooth, clean line that blends naturally into your face. Getting powder in your hair will spoil the illusion, so hold your hair back with a tie, scrunchie, or pin before applying the makeup. People often apply blush close to their ears, so make sure to hold back any wispy side-burns as well.
If any blush gets in your hair, rub the area with makeup removing wipes.
3-3. Swirl the tip of a blush brush into your makeup.
Open up your rouge container and place the tip of a blush or stippling brush into your makeup. Using gentle motions, swirl your brush around the blush for a few seconds, giving the powder a chance to build up on each brush hair. Then, blow or tap on the brush to remove loose powder.
3-4. Smile if you’re applying blush to your cheeks.
When your face is relaxed, it can be difficult to tell where your cheekbones and the apples of your cheeks are. Smiling will bring these elements into focus, making the application process far easier.
If you prefer, you can suck your cheeks in to create a fish face instead.
Once you’ve gained experience, you may be able to apply your blush without smiling.
3-5. Stipple the makeup onto your skin.
To apply the blush, tap the head of the brush onto your skin in small, dotting motions. The powder should go in the center of each area you want to apply the rouge to. This method is known as stippling and will prevent you from adding too much makeup.
The more makeup you use, the brighter your face will look. Excessive blush may be perfect for a high fashion aesthetic, but you should probably avoid it for day to day activities.
3-6. Blend the blush into your skin using circular motions.
With the tip of your blush or stippling brush, gently sweep the powder around in small circles. This will help blend the makeup into your skin, making it look cleaner and more natural. Depending on the specific look you’re going for, you may need to pull the blush around your face while blending it.
Some people prefer blending the blush with long, single strokes, so experiment and find the technique that works best for you.
When finished, your face should have no solid lines on it.
3-7. Set the makeup with finishing powder.
Once you’ve put on the blush, apply a thin coat of translucent finishing powder over the entire affected area. This will help set your makeup, keeping it in place throughout the day. Without this powder, there’s a good chance your makeup will run or fall off.
If you’re adding another form of powdered makeup, you can save your finishing powder until after you apply it.
To keep your blush from caking on your face, go over it very lightly with the beauty blender or brush that you used to apply your foundation. That will help take away texture and make it look more evenly blended.
Tips
Be sure to wash your makeup brush after use to keep the bristles clean.

2,066 | How to Apply Powder Concealer | 1. Apply primer and foundation first for a full look.
Powder concealer is a great addition to your usual makeup routine.
Grab your primer of choice and massage it into your skin—this helps create a smooth base for the rest of your makeup. Then, apply a layer of liquid or powder foundation onto your primed skin. Both liquid and powder foundations work well with a powder concealer, as long as you apply them beforehand.
If you’re using liquid foundation, wait several minutes for the product to dry completely. Powder concealer is a lot trickier to blend on a damp surface.
Applying your foundation first helps you pinpoint spots that need a little extra coverage.
2. Pick a product that’s lighter than your skin tone.
Concealer masks the uneven parts of your complexion.
To create a really seamless look, pick a powder concealer that’s at least 1 shade lighter than your actual skin tone.
Powder concealer adds a bright, highlighting touch to your skin. Unfortunately, the product may look a bit muddy if it’s too dark.
3. Apply loose powder with a concealer brush.
Concealer brushes have small, tapered bristles.
Pour and sift a pea-sized amount of concealer powder into the concealer lid. Then, twirl your concealer brush in the powder, tapping away any excess along the lid’s rim.
Some people prefer using fluffy contour brushes to apply their powder concealer.
Many concealer powders come loose in a sifter jar, but some are pressed into a compact, similar to a pressed powder.
4. Brush powder concealer directly under your eyes.
Powder concealer provides great coverage over dark circles and bags.
Guide your concealer brush in long, quick motions beneath your lower lash line. Then, apply the product along the curve of your eye to help disguise any dark circles or other uneven spots. Additionally, work the brush in short, diagonal motions toward your cheekbones, so you’re also covering your under-eye bags.
You can re-dip your brush into the sifter jar lid at any time if you run out of powder.
5. Tap the powder over any blemishes or discolored spots.
Concealer powder offers a quick fix if you’re in a rush.
Grab a concealer brush, lightly guiding it over the problem spot. For a really smooth, cohesive look, tap the powder into place as you go. Continue applying the powder in short, quick motions until the problem spot looks smooth and is completely covered.
6. Highlight the high points of your face.
Brighten your complexion with a fluffy contour brush.
Dab the brush into the concealer powder, whisking it back and forth beneath your eyes. As you apply the powder, gently guide the brush up and around your outer corners. Additionally, work the brush onto your cheekbones, diffusing the powder with a gentle, buffing motion.
The powder helps brighten your cheekbones, as well as the outer corners of your eyes.
7. Buff the powder anywhere else that needs extra coverage.
Scan your complexion for any other problem spots.
With your concealer brush, blend the powder above your Cupid’s bow, along your brow bone, or any other spot that could use a little more support.
Use powder concealer to disguise redness around your nose, or use it to hide scars and breakouts.
8. Don’t apply any cream or liquid products on top.
Powder-based products don’t sit well beneath creams or liquids.
Instead of blending into a seamless finish, your makeup will actually flake and curl. To be safe, stick to powder products for the rest of your makeup routine.
For instance, don’t use a cream or liquid blush on top of a powder concealer.
Tips
You can also use a slightly damp sponge to apply powder concealer.[14]

2,067 | How to Apply Powder Contour (with Pictures) | 1. Contour Application Tips
1-1. Note where the shadows fall naturally on your face.
Again, everyone's face is different. Step into a well-light room with a mirror, and take note of where the highlights and shadows fall naturally on your face. These are the areas that you will be applying the highlighter and contour to.
If your skin tone is dark enough, then the highlighter may give you enough contrast so that you don't need the contour.
1-2. Apply cheek contour to the hollows of your cheeks to slim them down.
Use a medium-sized brush to apply the contour powder into the hollows of your cheeks, below the highlighter, leaving a slim gap. There should be a small gap at the round of the cheek where blending occurs. Focus on the area closest to your ear; the contour should be very thin and light the closer it gets to your mouth.
If you have very prominent cheekbones or sunken cheeks, then you might not need to contour this area.
Don't worry about blending everything in just yet. You'll do that at the end.
Suck your cheeks in if you have troubles finding the hollows.
Apply the powder contour after you've applied the rest of your makeup.
1-3. Apply powder to your forehead and temples, if desired.
Use a medium-sized brush to apply shadow around the top of your face, right along your hairline and temples. Use the shadows that fall naturally upon your face as a guide. Blend the shadow along your hairline towards the middle of your forehead.
If you have a small forehead, you may not have much shadow at the top of your forehead, which is fine. You are working with your natural features, after all!
For a more masculine look, make the shadows at the temples more angled and prominent.
1-4. Add contour to your jaw to slim it down, if desired.
Use a medium-sized brush to apply contour to the edge of your jaw--it should rest right below the highlighter, if you added it. This is a great way to slim down your jaw or make it appear more angular.
1-5. Slim down your nose by adding contour to the sides.
Use a thin brush to apply a thin line of contour to either side of your nose bridge, next to the highlighter, leaving a slim gap for blending. Blend the shadow away from the highlighter and towards your face.
Do not apply contour to your entire nose, or it will end up too intense. It is better to apply just a thin line, then blend it out.
Do not blend the contour over your nostrils. Instead, sweep it down and under the tip of your nose.
1-6. Apply contour to any other desired areas.
Use your natural shadows as a guide. For example, if you have shadows under your lip or around your chin, apply more contour there. Some people also like to apply a thin line of contour down the center of their lip (fulcrum).
1-7. Blend the contoured areas until no harsh lines remain.
Start by running a large, clean brush along the edges where highlighter meets contour. Next, blend the shadows away from the highlighted edges, as needed. For example, if you applied contour to the hollows of your cheeks, blend it downward. Use large brushes for large areas, such as your forehead, and small brushes for small areas, such as your nose.
For small areas, such as the fulcrum, simply run a clean brush along that area to soften it up.
2. Selecting Your Powder and Tools
2-1. Determine whether you have warm or cool undertones.
Look at the veins on your wrist. If they appear green, you have warm skin. If they appear blue, you have cool skin. Another way to determine your skin undertone is to see how easily you suntan or burn. If you tan easily, you likely have warm skin; if you burn easily, you probably have cool skin.
If your skin has a pink or red base, you likely have a cooler skin tone. If you have a yellow base, you likely have a warmer skin tone. A lot of people are somewhere in between.
Knowing your skin's undertone is important. If your makeup does not match your skin's undertone, it will look make you look too ashy or yellow.
2-2. Choose a contour kit that matches your skin's undertone.
Some companies sell contouring kits that are labeled for warm or cool skin. In this case, buy the one that matches your undertone. If the kits are not labeled, purchase a yellow-tinted kit if you have warm skin, or a pinkish kit if you have cool skin.
Gold and bronze shades are good for warm skin.
Nutty or woodsy hues like mahogany and walnut are better for cool skin.
Many contour kits work well for both warm and cool.
You should also think about if your skin is light, medium, or dark. Using a palette that is too dark looks fake.
2-3. Make sure that the highlighter and contour work with your skin tone.
The highlighter needs to be a 2 shades lighter than your skin tone, and the contour needs to be a 2 shades darker. A kit may work for most people, but if it doesn't, you'll have to buy the powders separately.
2-4. Buy the powders separately if you cannot find the right kit.
Contouring kits are just a set of pressed powders that are a few shades lighter and darker than your skin tone. This means that you can use just about any pressed powder, such as foundation or blush, as long as it works with your undertone and tone.
Eyeshadow tends to be more intense in color than other powders, so it's harder to work with. If you do use eyeshadow, choose matte for your shadows and either matte or shimmery for your highlights.
Do not buy loose powder. Use pressed powder; it is easier to apply.
2-5. Do not use bronzer or illuminator on your nose.
Bronzer is too shimmery and won't cast natural shadows. Illuminator is also too shimmery. While you can use it above your lips or on your cheeks, you don't want to use it in areas that will get shiny, like your nose.
Using illuminator on your nose will make it even more shiny.
2-6. Obtain a selection of clean, natural-hair powder brushes.
Camelhair brushes will work the best, but you can use other brushes that are soft and fluffy. Have a selection of large, small, and medium brushes. Blush and angled contour brushes work great here.
Do not use brushes with stiff or synthetic bristles, such as lipstick or foundation brushes.
If your powders are more creamy, consider using a makeup sponge or beauty blender instead.
3. Applying Your Base Makeup
3-1. Start with a clean, toned, and moisturized face.
Wash your face with warm water and a facial soap suitable for your skin type. Pat your face dry with a clean towel, then apply toner. Finish off with moisturizer.
Wait for the moisturizer to absorb into your skin before proceeding.
Even people with oily skin should use moisturizer. Make sure that the product is labeled for oily skin, however.
3-2. Apply a face primer, if desired.
While not absolutely necessary, a face primer will fill in any pores and fine lines. It will make your face smoother, and make it easier to apply the foundation.
3-3. Apply your choice of foundation and concealer.
Choose a foundation that matches your skin tone and undertone. Apply the foundation using your preferred method (i.e. sponge, brush, or fingers). Be sure to blend it in well and let it dry.
If you wish to use concealer, apply it at this time. Remember to blend it in.
3-4. Apply the rest of your makeup as desired, except for the contour.
This includes things like lipstick, eyebrows, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara. You can apply all of these, or you can omit some of them for a more natural look.
If you prefer a more natural look, comb your brows and use lip balm or lip gloss instead of lipstick.
You will not be using any blush at all when contouring your face.
3-5. Set your makeup with translucent powder.
When it comes to makeup, you should apply liquid products over liquid products, and powder products over powder. Setting your foundation with setting powder will not only help keep your makeup in place, but it will also give the contouring powders a smooth surface to stick to.
4. Applying the Highlighter
4-1. Focus on bringing out your natural features.
Like shoes, contouring is not a "one size fits all." Everyone's face is shaped differently. Some people will want to contour just their nose, while others made want to contour their jaw.
Contouring can help you balancing your features and enhancing what you love about your face.
Contouring your nose is optional, but it's best not to contour just one part of your face, as this could look unnatural.
4-2. Note where the highlights fall naturally on your face.
Again, everyone's face is different. Step into a well-light room with a mirror, and take note of where the highlights and shadows fall naturally on your face. These are the areas that you will be applying the highlighter and contour to.
4-3. Brighten your face up by applying highlighter to your cheekbones.
Find where the light hits your cheekbones, or suck your cheeks in to find your cheekbones. Use a medium to large-sized brush to apply highlighter along the top of your cheekbones. Blend the powder in upwards towards your eyes. This will brighten the area under your eyes as well as emphasize your cheekbones appear.
If you have very prominent cheekbones, focus instead on the area in the center of your face, just under your eyes, and around the sides of your nose.
4-4. Apply highlighter to your forehead and blend it out.
Use a medium to large brush to apply highlighter to the center of your forehead, right between your brows. Blend the highlighter in using radiating upward strokes. Make sure that you blend the highlighter in above your eyebrows too.
Focus more on the center of your forehead. Do not apply highlighter to your temples or hairline.
4-5. Use a thin brush to highlight your nose bridge.
Take a small eyeshadow brush, then rotate it so that the bristles are oriented vertically. This will give you a nice, thin line. Use the brush to draw a thin line down the center of your nose, from top to bottom. Sweep a clean brush up and down the side edges of the highlighter to blend it in.
If you have a wide nose that you wish was a little skinnier, make the line thinner. A pointed, crease eyeshadow brush will work great here.
Highlighting your nose is optional.
4-6. Finish off with your chin.
Use a medium-sized brush to apply a dab of highlighter to your chin. Blend it out using long, light strokes with your brush. This is a great idea for those with small or weak chins. If you have a large or prominent chin, you might want to skip this step.
4-7. Add highlighter to any other areas you'd like to emphasize.
For example, if you have a very weak jaw, you could apply highlighter to your jawline. Some people also like to apply highlighter to their cupid's bow with a tiny, eyeliner brush.
5. Final Touches
5-1. Apply a light dusting of setting powder to your T-zone.
Use a large, clean powder brush to apply a light dusting of translucent setting powder all over your face. Focus on the areas that will get the most oily, typically your nose, forehead, and chin.
5-2. Soften any harsh lines with a heavier application of setting powder.
If there are any areas where you feel that you applied contour heavily, apply a generous dusting of translucent setting powder. Let it sit for a few minutes, then dust it off.
5-3. Do any final touch-ups with illuminator, if needed.
Take a look at your face in the mirror from various angles. If you feel that some areas could use more highlighter, apply a shimmery illuminator to those areas. For example, you could apply some to your nose bridge or cheekbones.
Remember to use the appropriate-sized brush for these areas.
Your makeup is done at this point. If you really want to, you can apply a light coating of setting powder or setting spray.
Tips
Apply less contour than you think you need. It is easier to apply more later than to take any away.
If you applied too much contour, you can soften it up by dusting a pressed powder that matches your skin tone over it.
If you don't want to do the rest of your makeup, use the contour over your daily foundation and setting powder.

Blush and angled contour brushes work great here.\\nDo not use brushes with stiff or synthetic bristles, such as lipstick or foundation brushes.\\nIf your powders are more creamy, consider using a makeup sponge or beauty blender instead.\\n3. Applying Your Base Makeup\\n3-1. Start with a clean, toned, and moisturized face.\\nWash your face with warm water and a facial soap suitable for your skin type. Pat your face dry with a clean towel, then apply toner. Finish off with moisturizer.\\nWait for the moisturizer to absorb into your skin before proceeding.\\nEven people with oily skin should use moisturizer. Make sure that the product is labeled for oily skin, however.\\n3-2. Apply a face primer, if desired.\\nWhile not absolutely necessary, a face primer will fill in any pores and fine lines. It will make your face smoother, and make it easier to apply the foundation.\\n3-3. Apply your choice of foundation and concealer.\\nChoose a foundation that matches your skin tone and undertone. Apply the foundation using your preferred method (i.e. sponge, brush, or fingers). Be sure to blend it in well and let it dry.\\nIf you wish to use concealer, apply it at this time. Remember to blend it in.\\n3-4. Apply the rest of your makeup as desired, except for the contour.\\nThis includes things like lipstick, eyebrows, eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara. You can apply all of these, or you can omit some of them for a more natural look.\\nIf you prefer a more natural look, comb your brows and use lip balm or lip gloss instead of lipstick.\\nYou will not be using any blush at all when contouring your face.\\n3-5. Set your makeup with translucent powder.\\nWhen it comes to makeup, you should apply liquid products over liquid products, and powder products over powder. Setting your foundation with setting powder will not only help keep your makeup in place, but it will also give the contouring powders a smooth surface to stick to.\\n4. Applying the Highlighter\\n4-1. Focus on bringing out your natural features.\\nLike shoes, contouring is not a \\\"one size fits all.\\\" Everyone's face is shaped differently. Some people will want to contour just their nose, while others made want to contour their jaw.\\nContouring can help you balancing your features and enhancing what you love about your face.\\nContouring your nose is optional, but it's best not to contour just one part of your face, as this could look unnatural.\\n4-2. Note where the highlights fall naturally on your face.\\nAgain, everyone's face is different. Step into a well-light room with a mirror, and take note of where the highlights and shadows fall naturally on your face. These are the areas that you will be applying the highlighter and contour to.\\n4-3. Brighten your face up by applying highlighter to your cheekbones.\\nFind where the light hits your cheekbones, or suck your cheeks in to find your cheekbones. Use a medium to large-sized brush to apply highlighter along the top of your cheekbones. Blend the powder in upwards towards your eyes. This will brighten the area under your eyes as well as emphasize your cheekbones appear.\\nIf you have very prominent cheekbones, focus instead on the area in the center of your face, just under your eyes, and around the sides of your nose.\\n4-4. Apply highlighter to your forehead and blend it out.\\nUse a medium to large brush to apply highlighter to the center of your forehead, right between your brows. Blend the highlighter in using radiating upward strokes. Make sure that you blend the highlighter in above your eyebrows too.\\nFocus more on the center of your forehead. Do not apply highlighter to your temples or hairline.\\n4-5. Use a thin brush to highlight your nose bridge.\\nTake a small eyeshadow brush, then rotate it so that the bristles are oriented vertically. This will give you a nice, thin line. Use the brush to draw a thin line down the center of your nose, from top to bottom. Sweep a clean brush up and down the side edges of the highlighter to blend it in.\\nIf you have a wide nose that you wish was a little skinnier, make the line thinner. A pointed, crease eyeshadow brush will work great here.\\nHighlighting your nose is optional.\\n4-6. Finish off with your chin.\\nUse a medium-sized brush to apply a dab of highlighter to your chin. Blend it out using long, light strokes with your brush. This is a great idea for those with small or weak chins. If you have a large or prominent chin, you might want to skip this step.\\n4-7. Add highlighter to any other areas you'd like to emphasize.\\nFor example, if you have a very weak jaw, you could apply highlighter to your jawline. Some people also like to apply highlighter to their cupid's bow with a tiny, eyeliner brush.\\n5. Final Touches\\n5-1. Apply a light dusting of setting powder to your T-zone.\\nUse a large, clean powder brush to apply a light dusting of translucent setting powder all over your face. Focus on the areas that will get the most oily, typically your nose, forehead, and chin.\\n5-2. Soften any harsh lines with a heavier application of setting powder.\\nIf there are any areas where you feel that you applied contour heavily, apply a generous dusting of translucent setting powder. Let it sit for a few minutes, then dust it off.\\n5-3. Do any final touch-ups with illuminator, if needed.\\nTake a look at your face in the mirror from various angles. If you feel that some areas could use more highlighter, apply a shimmery illuminator to those areas. For example, you could apply some to your nose bridge or cheekbones.\\nRemember to use the appropriate-sized brush for these areas.\\nYour makeup is done at this point. If you really want to, you can apply a light coating of setting powder or setting spray.\\nTips\\nApply less contour than you think you need. It is easier to apply more later than to take any away.\\nIf you applied too much contour, you can soften it up by dusting a pressed powder that matches your skin tone over it.\\nIf you don't want to do the rest of your makeup, use the contour over your daily foundation and setting powder.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Ready to take your look to the next level?

2,068 | How to Apply Powder Foundation | 1. Preparing Your Skin
1-1. Wash your face with a mild cleanser.
Head to the sink and get your skin wet, then rub a mild face cleanser all over your face. Rinse it off with cool water, then pat your face dry with a towel before you start applying your makeup.
Having clean skin is really important when you're working with powder foundation. If there is any dirt or oil on your face, the powder will sit on top of it and draw attention to it.
If you have any flaky skin, use an exfoliating wash to scrub the dead skin off before you start applying your foundation.
1-2. Apply a facial moisturizer to your skin.
Squeeze out a pea-sized amount of moisturizer and rub it into your skin, focusing on any areas that look dry or flaky. Let the moisturizer soak in for a few minutes before you start putting on foundation.
Try to look for a moisturizer formulated for your skin type (dry, oily, or combination). You should also make sure you’re using a face lotion, not a body lotion, to avoid clogging your pores.
Moisturizer is super important when working with powder foundation. If your skin is dry at all, there’s a chance that your foundation could clump up and look cakey.
1-3. Add a primer to make your makeup last longer.
Put a dime-sized amount of primer on your fingertips and rub it around. Gently rub the primer into your skin, focusing on the places that get the most oily throughout the day (like your nose, chin, and forehead). Let the primer soak in for 1 to 2 minutes before you move on.
Primer is also an essential step before using powder foundation since it helps to smooth out your pores and create a flat, even surface for the makeup to sit on.
1-4. Dab concealer under your eyes and on blemishes for extra coverage.
Grab your bottle of liquid concealer or a stick concealer and pat it underneath your eyes. Do the same thing for any blemishes you might have on your skin, then buff the concealer into your skin with a flat makeup brush.
You can’t put liquid or stick concealer on top of powder foundation, which is why you have to do this step first.
Concealer is totally optional, so you don’t have to use it if you don’t want to.
2. Using a Brush
2-1. Press a large, dense brush into the powder foundation.
Choose a brush that is fairly wide to get the most amount of coverage, and pick one that has dense bristles that are hard to the touch. Gently dip the brush into the powder foundation to pick up the product, and swirl it around slightly if you need to.
You can use either a synthetic or a natural brush for your foundation.
If the foundation is loose, pour some into the lid before dipping your brush in. If it’s more compact, leave it in the bottom of the container.
A Kabuki brush works well for powder foundation. You can also use a blending sponge or a dense foundation brush if you need to.
2-2. Pat the brush onto your T-zone and under eyes.
To start applying the makeup, focus on the spots that collect the most oil throughout the day—your nose, chin, and underneath your eyes. Really press the brush into your face to pat the powder into your skin.
Using this motion will help to set the concealer on your face while also giving you more coverage with the foundation.
Patting the foundation into your skin is super important! If it’s not patted into your skin enough, it won’t settle into the crevices of your face and it has a higher chance of melting off throughout the day.
2-3. Swirl the brush onto your cheeks and forehead.
For the rest of your face, you don’t have to use a tapping motion as much as a wiping motion. Use the brush to apply the foundation on your cheeks and forehead in a small circular motion to cover up the rest of your skin.
This will help to blend the foundation into the lines and crevices of your skin, leaving it less cakey and more natural looking.
2-4. Pick up more foundation as you need it.
As you apply the foundation, you’ll probably have to pick up more on your brush every minute or so. You can tell you need more when your skin isn’t getting covered by foundation anymore or you notice streaking as you use your brush. Gently dip your brush into the foundation every time you need it, making sure the entire surface is covered with foundation.
The more foundation you use overall, the more coverage you’ll have.
2-5. Blend the foundation down your neck.
To finish off your foundation, bring the brush down and swipe it from your jawline down to the middle of your neck. Buff the foundation out on your neck in a circular motion to blend it out and make your face look natural with the rest of your skin.
Not blending down your neck can leave a stark contrast between your face and the rest of your body, so it’s good practice whenever you’re applying foundation.
2-6. Set the foundation with finishing powder for a longer-lasting stay.
Even though you just used a powder for your foundation, you can still use a finishing powder on top of it if you’re planning to wear it for a long time. Finish the rest of your makeup routine (eyes, lips, brows, cheeks) then dip a fluffy brush into some loose finishing powder. Dust it lightly all over your face, focusing on oily areas like your nose, chin, and forehead.
Since the powder foundation is pressed into your skin, you can add powder on top of it without worrying about a cakey look.
3. Avoiding Common Pitfalls
3-1. Find the right color for your skin tone.
To see if a foundation is a good color match for your skin, dip a q-tip into the foundation and draw a line along your jawline. If the line is invisible, this makeup is a good match. If you can see this line, you'll want to try a different shade.
You may have to experiment with several different colors before you find a shade that works.
3-2. Choose your powder foundation based on the coverage you want.
Mineral or light foundation is for light to medium coverage. If you want more coverage, go for pressed powder, which tends to go on darker. You may also choose to apply a layer of mineral foundation and tackle problem areas with pressed powder for a more targeted approach.
Try keeping both a mineral foundation and a pressed powder foundation around so you can pick the one that you need based on what you’re doing and how long you’re wearing your makeup.
3-3. Pat on concentrated foundation to cover any spots or blemishes.
If you’ve finished applying your powder foundation and you notice that there’s some patchy areas or blemishes still visible, grab a small concealer brush and dip it into the powder. Press the brush against your skin on the problem areas, then gently pat the foundation into your skin. This will help to add more coverage to cover up any spots that you might have missed.
Avoid putting liquid concealer on top of powder foundation, as that can make it smear and remove coverage.
3-4. Avoid using your fingers for powder foundation.
While liquid foundation is sometimes okay to put on with your hands, powder foundation needs a brush or a sponge to spread out and really dig into your skin. Always put on powder foundation with a dense makeup brush or a sponge for the best coverage.
Putting on makeup with your fingers can also introduce germs and bacteria to your skin, so it’s best to use a clean makeup brush.
Tips
Try a powder foundation for a lighter coverage when you’re out running errands or hanging out with friends.

2,069 | How to Apply Powder Makeup | 1. Using Powder Foundation
1-1. Pick the right powder foundation.
Like other types of foundation, you want to match the skin tone of your face as closely as possible. If you're having trouble picking the right shade, try asking a beautician at a department store or beauty supply shop for assistance.
Powder foundations generally work best with oily skin. However, there are now hydrating powder foundations on the market for people with drier skin.
1-2. Apply a makeup primer.
Paint a thin layer of primer across your face using your fingertips. You should only use about a pea-sized dollop. Primer will give you a smooth canvas to work on and will help powder makeup adhere for longer.
1-3. Load the powder onto a brush.
Avoid applying too much foundation at once, as this can create a "caked on" appearance. How you load your brush will depend on whether you're using loose or pressed powder foundation.
If you are using pressed powder from a compact, gently press the tip of the brush into the powder and gently move it back and forth.
For loose powder, start by tapping a small amount of your powder out onto the lid of its bottle. Dab your brush into the powder and tap it to remove any excess.
1-4. Dust a light layer of foundation all over your face.
Use a rounded kabuki or foundation brush for best results. Make sure the layer is evenly applied across your face. Use long, light strokes to apply.
1-5. Add more foundation to problem areas.
Look for any blemishes or areas of redness that are not totally concealed by the light layer of foundation. Apply more foundation to these spots until they disappear. For these areas, load the powder onto the side of your brush. Roll the loaded brush directly onto these spots, pressing down slightly into your skin.
2. Applying Blush
2-1. Pick the right color.
If you feel that your skin is looking a little dull, some blush will brighten your complexion. Like other types of makeup, it's important to find a color that complements your skin tone. Try to find one that creates the same color your cheeks make when your face flushes. Some general guidelines are:
If your skin is very dark, you can use vibrant reds, apricots, and berries as your blush. These colors look bold when in a compact, but they will blend in well when brushed onto your skin
Many different colors work well with medium skin. Apricot, taupe, bronze, and coral are examples of the most popular blushes for medium skin.
Fair, pale skin looks best when paired with classic pink blush.
2-2. Load your makeup brush.
Start with a clean makeup brush, preferably a blush brush. Blush most often comes in the form of a pressed powder compact. However, loose pigment used as blush has been gaining in popularity. Keep in mind that you want only the slightest hint of color; avoid overloading your brush.
For pressed powder, run your brush lightly across the compact once or twice. Flick your wrist with the brush over the pressed powder to remove any excess if necessary.
For loose pigment, start by placing the lid of its container flat on the table with the inside facing up. Shake a tiny bit of powder onto the inside of the lid. Dip your brush into it and tap against the edge of the container to remove excess.
2-3. Smile while looking in the mirror.
Many people struggle with blush placement, and applying blush to a relaxed face can be a gamble. Smiling will make the apples of your cheeks prominent and easy to brush blush onto without overdoing it.
2-4. Dab on the blush and blend backwards.
Dot the tiniest bit of blush onto the apples of your cheeks. Make buffing motions with your brush to blend your blush's edges. Try to work it back slightly towards your temples, following your cheekbones.
3. Adding Eyeshadow
3-1. Start with a primer.
Pick an eye primer or eyeshadow base to help your eyeshadow better stick to your skin. Special eye primers work best, but a general makeup primer will also be fine. Use your fingertips or a fine brush to add a thin, even layer on all skin you plan on adding eyeshadow to. This will generally be your entire eyelid and the area slightly below your eyebrows.
3-2. Pick your eyeshadows.
In general, you will want at least two shades: a lighter base shade and a darker lid shade. These can be similar or completely different colors. As with other types of powder makeup, eyeshadow can come in compacts as pressed powder or in small jars as a loose powder. Loose eyeshadows tend to be more vibrant but difficult to work with. These often contain pigment without binders and are therefore also called simply "pigments."
3-3. Use an eyeshadow brush.
Picking a fine pencil brush will be easier to work with. However, wider brushes can be used when shading a large area, such as your entire lid. Shadow brushes with a rounded tip are generally best when working with loose pigment. You may also choose to use a sponge applicator instead, but blending with these takes a lot more time.
3-4. Load your brush with the lighter color.
Be careful not to overload your brush. Too much powder can cause eyeshadow fallout on your cheeks. Remember that you can always easily add more eyeshadow, but removing it without ruining the rest of your makeup is much more difficult.
If you're working with pressed powder, simply run your brush back and forth over your eyeshadow once or twice.
If your lighter shade is a loose pigment, tap a small amount into the lid of its jar. Dip your brush into the smaller amount of pigment. Tap your brush on the side of the container to remove excess powder.
3-5. Apply the lighter shade all over your lid.
Generally, you will want to use this lighter shade as a base. To do so, start with the bottom of your lid and sweep up. Stop somewhere below your eyebrow.
3-6. Load and apply the darker color.
Load your brush with darker eyeshadow the same way as you did with the lighter color. In general, you will apply the darker shade across your entire eyelid, stopping at the crease. Do this with a single sweep of your brush, starting from the outer corner of your eye towards the inner corner.
3-7. Blend your colors together.
Using your brush, sweep the border between the two colors back and forth a few times. Try to make the blended area as close to your eyelid's crease as possible. Avoid pressing down too hard by using light strokes. Repeat until the two colors have blended together seamlessly at their border.
4. Applying Setting Powder
4-1. Apply foundation first.
Setting powder should be added after foundation and concealer but before lip and eye makeup. Setting powder is most important when using liquid or cream foundations, as it will reduce shine and help to keep your makeup from sliding off your face. It can also be used to extend the wear time of powder foundation.
4-2. Choose the right powder.
Pick a powder that is either translucent or close to your natural skin tone. Make sure the product is advertised as a finishing or setting powder and not powder foundation.
Powder that matches your skin tone will give extra coverage when concealing blemishes. However, it has the tendency to look thicker than translucent powders.
Translucent powder can match all skin tones and looks less caked on compared to tinted powder. Just be sure to blend translucent powder extra well, as flash photography can make it stand out.
Like most types of powder makeup, setting powder can be either a loose or pressed powder.
4-3. Load the powder onto a brush.
Take a large, fluffy makeup brush and dip it into the powder or brush it across the compact. Tap or flick the brush lightly over the container once or twice. This will remove any excess powder from the bristles.
4-4. Dust your face with powder.
Apply with light movements, focusing on the center of your face. Take care to go over your T-zone, the outer corners of your nose, your chin, and your cheeks. Avoid the outer edges of your face.
4-5. Blend the powder into your face.
Use a kabuki brush or some other type of densely-bristled makeup brush. "Buff" the powder using small circular motions all across your face. This will keep your skin looking less pale and more natural.

Apply setting powder over pigments if you want to mute blush or eyeshadow that's too bright.[17]

2,070 | How to Apply Pressed Powder Foundation Makeup | 1. Preparing Your Skin
1-1. Wash your face with a mild cleanser.
Use one pump of facial cleanser and lukewarm water to wash your face. Focus on areas of oil build up, such as the forehead and nose, scrubbing with your fingertips to deep clean. Rinse your face with cool water to close your pores, and dry with a clean towel.
Cleansing your face will remove surface oils and create a clean canvas for your makeup.
1-2. Apply moisturizer.
Rub a dime-sized amount of facial moisturizer into your face and neck to hydrate your skin. Moisturizing your skin will keep your powder foundation from looking dry. Allow the moisturizer to sit on your skin for 60 seconds for it to absorb fully.
If you want your foundation to look even and smooth, take care of your skin with a regular routine, like cleansing and moisturizing your face each day and using a good night cream.
1-3. Apply primer.
Squeeze a pea-sized amount of primer onto a fingertip and smooth over your face, working from the center outward. Work the primer into any areas of enlarged pores or creases for an even base. Primer makes pores appear smaller and fills in fine lines for more flawless makeup application. It will also make your foundation last longer.
Choose a primer that suits your skin's needs. If you have large pores, for example, you can use a primer meant to fill in pores and fine lines.
Putting on too much primer can leave your skin slick, as many are silicone-based and don’t absorb the same way lotion does. With that in mind, it’s best to put on just a little at first and use more as needed.
2. Applying the Foundation
2-1. Swish a kabuki or rounded foundation brush over the powder foundation.
Move the makeup brush back and forth over the pressed powder in short strokes to coat the bristles. Tap the edge of the brush against the sink to shake off any excess powder. This will ensure you don’t have too much product on the brush.
2-2. Press the powder over your skin with a slight rolling motion.
Use gentle pressure to roll the brush over your skin, working from the center outward, to apply the foundation. Do this all over your skin for a smooth natural look.
If you are wearing a low-cut top, you can apply makeup over your neck and décolleté as well for a smooth finish.
2-3. Build coverage where you need it.
Using the same rolling motion, apply additional powder over any areas you’d like to cover more. Do a couple rolls at a time, and then pause to check the area in the mirror. Stop when the coverage is to your liking. This will ensure the areas you want camouflaged are hidden without putting excess makeup on the entire face.
2-4. Use a damp beauty sponge for heavier coverage.
Wet a beauty sponge with lukewarm water and dab it into your pressed powder. Use the makeup dampened sponge to apply your powder, gently dabbing the sponge against your skin as you work from the center outward. This will provide heavier makeup coverage if you have widespread blemishes or lots of discoloration you want to hide.
This technique should be used before applying any pressed powder foundation with the foundation brush, if desired. Doing so after could cause your makeup to look cakey.
3. Performing Touch Ups
3-1. Use the built-in puff.
Most pressed powders come with a built-in puff that can ensure smooth application even when you don’t have your brushes. If you’re on the go, press the puff into your powder, then dab gently on any areas where your foundation has faded.
3-2. Use rice paper to absorb excess oil throughout the day.
Touch up your look when out and about by blotting with rice paper on areas of facial oil build-up, such as your nose and T-zone. This will keep your face looking polished with a nice matte finish.
Reapply powder sparingly. Doing this too often can result in a cakey appearance.
Powder foundation is great for anyone with oily skin, because it will help absorb some of the oil throughout the day.
3-3. Touch up any blemishes or imperfections.
Roll your makeup puff around one finger and dab the edge in your powder. This will focus the foundation on a smaller area of the puff. Then, gently tap that part of the puff against the offending blemish or area you want more coverage.
This will hide any imperfections that peek through your original makeup application.
Tips
If you have very dry skin, it may be best to opt for a liquid or cream foundation, which will add some moisture back into your skin. Powder foundation could dry your skin out more.[16]

Avoid mixing pressed powder foundation with liquid makeup products, such as liquid or cream blushes. This combination can thicken your foundation and make your skin look cakey. Try to stick to all powder or all liquid facial makeup for the best look.

2,071 | How to Apply Pre-Bonded Hair Extensions | 1. How many extensions do I need?
1-1. To add thickness to thin hair, you need 50 to 100 extensions.
If your hair is naturally thin, you'll probably need to put in at least 50 extensions or up to 100 for thick, long hair. Plan on attaching 1 row across the back of your head directly in the middle. Apply another row about 1 inch (2.5 cm) below it. Then, put 2 short rows of extensions on the sides of your head near your temples to give you a natural look.
1-2. Use 125 to 175 pieces if you're adding length to thick hair.
Thick hair needs more extensions so there aren't noticeable gaps in length. Aim for applying 4 to 6 rows of extensions on the back of your head and 3 to 4 rows on the sides of your head. If your hair is really thick, you'll need to apply more rows near the top of your head than if your hair is medium or thin.
1-3. Get 150 to 250 pieces if you're adding extensions to short hair.
Short hair takes a lot of extensions! If your hair is thin, plan on using 150 to 175 pieces. For medium-thick hair, use 200 to 225, or for thick hair, get at least 250 pieces. This gives you enough pieces to attach 8 to 10 rows on the back of your head and 6 to 8 rows on the sides.This might seem like a lot of pieces, but it's better to have extra than to run out while you're doing your hair.
2. How many rows of hair extensions do I need?
You need 2 or 3 rows in the back and 2 on the sides.
Comb a horizontal line across the middle of the back of your head. Clip up the hair that's above this line so it's not in your way. Then, divide the bottom section into 2 or 3 even rows. Divide the hair on the sides of your head into 2 horizontal sections, as well. Keep those sections separated and clipped out of the way.
If you're applying extensions to short hair, plan for making 6 to 8 rows on each side of your head. Remember to keep them about 1 inch (2.5 cm) apart.
3. How should I attach the extensions to my hair?
3-1. Gather a section of hair and pop the shield onto it near the scalp.
Start working on the left end of the bottom row about ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) from the edge. Take a small section of hair that's the same width as the extension—usually around ⁄4 inch (0.64 cm)—and push the circular shield that came with the extensions onto the hair. Keep the shield ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) from the scalp.
Most pre-bonded extensions come with a round heat-protective shield, but if your package didn't, just pick up a generic hair extension shield at your local beauty supply store.
The shield protects your surrounding hair from the glue. To keep it in place, you can clip the shield onto the hair that's closest to your scalp.
It will take time to apply the extensions since you have to do 1 small segment at a time. Fortunately, you'll get faster as you go.
3-2. Place the extension bond onto the hair and pinch the heat tool on it for 3 seconds.
The bond is the hard, nail-shaped end of the extension. Press it up against the small section of your own hair that's hanging out of the shield. Then, pinch the bond with your hair using the heat tool that's designed for your hair extensions. Hold it in place for 3 seconds so the glue melts.You'll probably see the adhesive smear or spread a little as it melts—this is totally okay! You'll be shaping and securing the extension next.
3-3. Roll the fused extension with your hair and remove the shield.
Set aside the heat tool and work fast! Pinch the melted part of the extension and your hair with your thumb and forefinger. Squeeze and roll it so the adhesive fuses with your hair and the extension stays in place.Roll the bond and hair for about 5 seconds to get a solid hold.
3-4. Apply each extension ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) apart along each row.
Gather another segment of hair ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) away from the extension you just applied and pop it through the hair shield. Press and roll another extension in place, then keep applying extensions along the row. Apply your last extension ⁄2 inch (1.3 cm) from the end of the row.Once you attach the extensions to the bottom row, let down the next row of hair and add more. Finish with the rows on the side of your head.
4. Can I wash and condition my extensions?
4-1. Wash your hair gently and don't condition the bonds.
Wait a full day before you shampoo or condition your hair. Be really gentle when you wash so you don't pull on the bonds or get them oily. Instead of flipping your hair over and washing it in the sink, wash your hair in the shower. When you condition, keep the product 3 inches (7.6 cm) away from your scalp so it doesn't get close to your bonds.
4-2. Blot your hair dry with a towel instead of rubbing.
If you're like most people, it's probably your habit to grab a towel and start rubbing your hair dry, but this can really damage your extensions. To treat them gently, wrap your hair with a towel so it absorbs the water. Then, blow-dry your hair on a low-heat setting.
5. How often should I brush my extensions?
Brush your extensions 2 or 3 times a day.
It's really important to keep your extensions from tangling together, but you still need to be gentle with them. Run a boar and nylon bristle brush or a loop brush through your hair at least twice a day. Start brushing from the ends towards the bond, but skip your scalp or you could tug the bonds.
Pop on a cap or braid your hair before you go to bed so your hair doesn't get tangled while you sleep.
6. How long will the extensions last in my hair?
Pre-bonded hair extensions can last up to 4 months!
If you've applied the extensions correctly and you practice daily maintenance, the extensions should look great for up to 4 months.
7. How do I get pre-bonded hair extensions out?
7-1. Squirt 3 or 4 drops of removal product onto the bond.
Buy extension removal liquid or solvent that works with your hair extensions. Then, squeeze 3 or 4 drops of the product onto the bond that's near your scalp. It works to break down the adhesive so you can get the extension out easily.
7-2. Pinch the bond with flat pliers to break up the bond.
Pinch the bond about 5 times to help the solution work into the adhesive. This also helps to crumble the adhesive so it's easier to get the extension out.
7-3. Pull out the extension and wash your hair.
You might be able to tug on the extension and get it to come out right away or you may need to use a fine-toothed comb to pull it out. Once you get all of the extensions out of your hair, wash your hair with shampoo and conditioner.
Tips
Work with hair extensions that are the color you want your hair to be instead of applying them and dying them.
It can be tricky to apply hair extensions to your own hair, so you might ask a friend to help!

2,072 | How to Apply Primer | 1. Applying Face Primer
1-1. Choose a primer that fits your skin needs.
Primers are used to brighten and smooth your skin, and they’re essential for keeping your makeup on all day, too. There are lots of primers to choose from, and a general, multipurpose one will always do the trick. If you want extra features like acne treatment or brightening power, though, you can also go for specialized primers, like:
A tinted primer, great for adding a glowy look to dull skin.
A primer with anti-acne treatment to fight breakouts.
A combo of creamy foundation and primer to smooth out acne bumps or wrinkles.
1-2. Apply a small drop of primer to the central parts of your face.
Pour out a drop of primer, about the size of a raisin, onto your hand and dap it across a few fingertips. Gently apply it to your cheeks, forehead, chin, and the sides of your nose, starting in the middle and blending outwards.
The primer might appear slightly lighter than your skin. Simply blend it with your fingertips to help it look more natural.
1-3. Pat skin primer around your eyes to soften lines and prevent smudging.
Used around your eyes, primer is great for holding makeup, like concealer, in place, as well as smoothing out lines and redness. Pat it gently under your eyes and on your lids.
1-4. Dab concealer
Let your primer dry for 2-5 minutes, then start with the rest of your makeup routine! You can cover acne and other spots with a small dab of concealer over each mark, and under-eye circles with a thin layer of concealer in the shape of an upside-down triangle. Use your fingers or a brush to blend it into your skin.
Remember to use a concealer that matches your skin tone.
Be careful not to get any concealer in your eyes.
1-5. Apply liquid foundation
Use your fingers or a makeup brush to dab a small amount of foundation in the center of your forehead, under your eyes, and on your nose and chin. Spread it outwards and blend it in.
The primer will help your foundation stay on and will give you a clean, fresh base to work off of.
1-6. Finish with a light dusting of powder to set your makeup.
Use your fingers or a powder brush to gently pat a thin layer of powder over your foundation. Apply it in gentle circles on the apples of your cheek, the bridge of your nose, and the center of your forehead and nose.
A bit of powder will lock in both your foundation and primer to ensure that they stay in place all day long.
2. Using Eye Primer
2-1. Use eye primer to keep your eye makeup in place.
Eye primer can help brighten the skin around your eyes while locking in your eyeshadow and eyeliner all day long. It’s an essential step to prep the delicate skin around your eyes and ensure that your eye makeup doesn’t smudge or smear.
2-2. Dab a small amount of primer from your lash line to your brow bone.
Pour a drop of primer onto your ring finger. Apply it in a thin layer on your upper and lower eyelids, extending up to your brow bone.
2-3. Apply a bit under your eyes to conceal dark circles.
Dab a bit of eye primer under your eyes to brighten and smooth out dark circles. You can leave it as is, or apply a bit of concealer to brighten the area even more.
2-4. Smooth primer over your eyebrows to keep pencil or gel in place.
If you want to define or fill in your eyebrows, tinted eye primer is a great first step. Smooth a drop over each eyebrow, following its arch, before applying your brow pencil or gel.
Eye primer might lighten the color of your eyebrows, so look for a primer that’s slightly tinted.
2-5. Use an eyelash primer to make your lashes look thicker and longer.
Eyelash primer will boost your lashes in length and volume, making them look thicker and more amplified—like eyelash extensions, without the cost! Eyelash primer comes in a tube that looks like mascara, and you’ll apply it in the same way, then brush your mascara on top.
You can also look for two-in-one mascara and primer products, which let you apply both at once.
2-6. Apply concealer, eyeshadow, and mascara to complete your look.
Give your eye and/or eyelash primer 2-5 minutes to dry, then apply the rest of your products. Start with concealer for undereye circles, then brush on eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara, as desired.
3. Applying Lip Primer
3-1. Use lip primer to keep lipstick smooth.
Lip primer typically isn’t necessary unless you’re planning on wearing lipstick—then, it’s essential! Lip primer is all you need to keep your lipstick from feathering out or collecting into lines.
Primer is also great for evening out your lip color to make your lipstick look more uniform.
3-2. Use a light primer to emphasize the true shade of your lipstick.
Look for a primer that’s a shade or two lighter than your natural skin tone. This will help to bring out the bright color of your lipstick, more so than a color truer to your tone.
You can buy lip primer either in makeup stores or online. If you’re purchasing online, make sure the store allows returns, just in case you decide you want a different tone.
3-3. Exfoliate
Before applying your primer, exfoliate your lips with a scrub to smooth over rough patches and get rid of flakes. Then, apply a moisturizing lip balm and let it sink in for about 5 minutes.
You can use a premade lip exfoliant or make your own by mixing a spoonful each of lemon juice and castor oil. Dab it onto your lips, let it sit for an hour, then gently rub it off with a wet, warm washcloth.
If your lips are smooth and not too chapped, you can skip exfoliating and go straight to the lip balm.
3-4. Smooth on some lip primer using a small makeup brush.
Lip primer comes in a tube like lipstick, but it’s easier to apply with a thin brush. Rub your brush against the primer lightly, then brush the primer onto your lips like lip gloss or liquid lipstick. Start with the top lip, then move to the bottom, making sure to cover each lip with a thin, even coat.
You can also even out the application by dabbing and blending with your fingers.
3-5. Apply your lipstick
Let your primer set for 2-5 minutes, then apply your lip color! You can use liquid lipstick, which you’ll apply with a brush, or the traditional tube. Either way, your moisturizing and priming routine will help your color pop and stay in place all day long.
Tips
If your skin is feeling dry, you apply a moisturizing product before your primer.

2,073 | How to Apply Putty on Walls | 1. Preparing the Wall, the Area, and Yourself
1-1. Put on gloves, eye protection, and a breathing mask.
While you’re cleaning and preparing the wall, you’ll create dust particles that can irritate your eyes and lungs. To be safe, keep your mask and eyewear on when applying the putty as well. Additionally, the mixed wall putty may be a skin irritant, so it’s best to wear gloves when applying it.
Keep your protection on while you apply primer or paint as well, as even modern products can still release irritating fumes.
1-2. Tape over or cover elements you want to protect.
Use painter’s tape to mask over any items you can’t move but don’t want to cover in putty, such as door or window trim. If there is a finished floor below the wall, cover it with plastic sheeting or drop cloths.
Taking a little time now to cover things up is much better than trying to remove wayward putty later.
1-3. Scrape off or sand down chips, flakes, and bumps.
If you’re working with a new wall, you shouldn’t need to do much scraping or sanding. However, with older walls, use a paint scraper and/or coarse sandpaper (40-60 grit) to remove loose chips and flaking paint, primer or plaster. Use the sandpaper to also smooth out any bumps before proceeding.
If there are smaller cracks or holes in the wall—no more than about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) wide or deep—use a screwdriver blade to scrape out any loose material. Cracks or holes larger than this cannot be properly filled with wall putty and must be repaired using other methods.
1-4. Use a dry brush over the entire wall.
Brush the wall thoroughly to remove any remaining chips or flakes, as well as dirt and dust. Any clean, sturdy whisk brush will do the job well.
Keep your protective mask and eyewear on, because you’ll kick up dust while brushing.
1-5. Wipe and moisten the wall with a clean sponge and water.
Dip the sponge into your bucket of clean water, wring it out a little, and wipe over a section of the wall. Repeat the process until you’ve wiped the entire wall. The wall is now ready for putty.
Don’t worry if the wall is still damp when you start applying putty—this will only help it to adhere.
You can also use a clean rag instead of a sponge.
2. Mixing the Putty and Patching Imperfections
2-1. Add water, then the putty powder, to a bucket in a 2:1 ratio.
Read the mixing instructions on your putty package to get the appropriate ratio for your product. Put the water in your bucket first, then add the correct amount of dry putty mix.
Only mix an amount of putty that you can use within 2 hours, because it will become too hard to work with after that. If you’re not sure, err on the side of mixing less now and making an additional batch later.
Help keep the putty moist while working by draping a damp towel over the top of the bucket.
Dry-mix putty is cement-based and great for indoor or outdoor applications on plaster and concrete walls. Pre-mixed wall putty is acrylic-based and recommended only for interior use, particularly for repairs on painted walls.
2-2. Stir it until it is thoroughly mixed and smooth.
The fasted and easiest way to mix the putty is to use a stirrer attachment on a power drill, set at a low mixing speed. However, you can also use a stirring stick or similar manual implement. In any case, make sure the dry mix is thoroughly incorporated and that there are no lumps.
The putty should have a thick consistency, but not seem dry. If you pick up a scoop on a putty knife and hold it sideways, the putty should slide off in large globs.
If necessary, alter the consistency by adding either more water or dry mix.
2-3. Apply putty to small cracks and holes with a small putty knife.
Scoop up some putty onto the blade of a small—roughly 3–4 in (7.6–10.2 cm) wide—putty knife and press the putty into each small crack or hole. Then scrape the blade over the area horizontally and vertically to remove excess putty.
Use putty to fill cracks and holes that are no more than about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) wide or deep.
2-4. Let the putty dry, then sand and wipe it.
Give the putty at least 4-6 hours to dry, or even 12-24 hours in humid conditions. Then smooth it out by sanding over it lightly with fine sandpaper (300-400 grit), and wipe away any dust with a clean and slightly damp cloth.
If the putty still looks or feels damp at all, wait longer before sanding it.
Usually putty turns a lighter color when it's dry.
2-5. Apply primer to the repairs or the whole wall.
Use a paintbrush to cover the patched areas with a coat of a primer that is suited to the conditions. For instance, if you’re working with an exterior concrete wall, use a primer made for that application.
You may also want to cover the entire wall with a coat of primer. If you plan to apply putty to the whole wall now that you’ve made repairs, check the packaging to see if the putty manufacturer recommends priming a bare wall before applying the product.
Even if you’re not going to add putty to the whole wall, you may want to prime the entire area before repainting it. This will help the patched areas to blend in better, and will also aid in paint adhesion.
3. Applying a First Coat to the Whole Wall
3-1. Scoop up some putty with a small trowel and add it to a large trowel.
Wall putty is usually applied with two flat-bladed trowels—essentially, larger putty knives—with one in each hand. The smaller trowel should have a blade that’s around 6–8 in (15–20 cm) wide, the larger one about 12–14 in (30–36 cm) wide. Use the small trowel to add a glob of putty to the large trowel.
Spread out the glob of putty along the blade of the large trowel so that it reaches nearly from end to end.
3-2. Press the trowel blade to the wall at an angle and scrape it straight up.
With the putty loaded onto the large trowel, touch its blade to the bottom of the wall at about a 30 degree angle. Maintain this angle and scrape the blade straight up the wall while maintaining contact with it. Leave behind an even coat of putty that’s about 0.125 in (0.32 cm) thick.
Go from the bottom to the top of the wall in one motion. If you can’t reach all the way up, go as high as you comfortably can and use a ladder to do the higher part of the wall later.
Don’t expect to master this maneuver right away. Your putty might go on too thick, or it may be to thin and have missing patches on the wall. If there’s too much putty on the wall, scrape it all off and try again, this time applying more pressure to the blade. If there’s not enough, go over the area again with lighter pressure on the blade.
3-3. Reposition the putty on your blade, or add more.
Once you’ve applied a vertical stripe of putty on the wall, check the larger trowel blade. If it still has a sizable glob of putty on it, just use the small trowel to spread it out a bit if needed. Or, if you need more putty on the large blade, pick up some more with the small trowel.
With practice, you’ll be able to scrape the blades of your trowels quickly in order to add, remove, and reposition putty on them as needed.
3-4. Keep scraping from bottom to top until you’ve covered the wall.
Move to the right or left of the vertical strip of putty you just applied, and place your trowel at the bottom of the wall again. Overlap the previous stripe of putty with about one-fourth of the width of your trowel blade (e.g., 3 in (7.6 cm) for a 12 in (30 cm) wide blade). Apply a new stripe of putty in the same manner as the first one.
Just keep adding putty to your trowel as needed and repeating these stripes until the entire wall is covered.
If you have some tighter spaces to cover, switch to using the small trowel to apply the putty to the wall.
3-5. Allow the putty to dry for 16-24 hours.
Wall putty needs to dry thoroughly between coats, so it’s best to leave it for a day before adding more putty (or doing anything else to the wall, like sanding or priming). In drier conditions, the putty may be dry in 16 hours, while it will take up to 24 hours in more humid conditions.
To check for dryness, touch the putty with your fingers to feel for dampness, and look for darker areas that indicate remaining moisture.
4. Adding a Second Coat and Finishing the Wall
4-1. Apply the second coat either horizontally or vertically.
There are differing opinions on the best way to add the second coat of putty. Some people prefer to apply it vertically again, just like the first time. Others apply it horizontally, in the belief that it results in a smoother overall surface and less sanding work afterward. In either case, you’ll mix the putty, load it onto the trowels, and add it to the wall in the same thickness as the first coat.
Horizontal application is really no different than vertical application, technique-wise. Keep the trowel blade at about a 30 degree angle and maintain contact straight across the wall.
The second coat, like the first, should be no more than roughly 0.125 in (0.32 cm) thick.
4-2. Sand and wipe down the putty after it dries for 16-24 hours.
Once the second coat is fully applied and has dried thoroughly, go over the entire wall with fine sandpaper (300-400 grit). When you’re finished, wipe off any remaining dust with a damp cloth or sponge.
If you left some higher spots with your putty coats, sand these down with a coarse sandpaper (40-60 grit), then smooth them out with the fine sandpaper.
4-3. Prime the whole wall, then add 2 coats of paint.
Now that your wall putty job is finished, protect it with a coat of primer suited to the conditions (e.g., a primer made for exterior concrete walls). Add it to the wall with a paint roller and/or brushes, and let it dry as per the manufacturer instructions. Then, add 2 coats of paint in the same manner, allowing each coat to dry for the recommended time before proceeding.
Even if you primed the whole wall before adding the putty, prime it again after applying the putty. This will add some protection to the putty and make the paint adhere much better.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Preparing the Wall, the Area, and Yourself\\n1-1. Put on gloves, eye protection, and a breathing mask.\\nWhile you’re cleaning and preparing the wall, you’ll create dust particles that can irritate your eyes and lungs. To be safe, keep your mask and eyewear on when applying the putty as well. Additionally, the mixed wall putty may be a skin irritant, so it’s best to wear gloves when applying it. \\nKeep your protection on while you apply primer or paint as well, as even modern products can still release irritating fumes.\\n1-2. Tape over or cover elements you want to protect.\\nUse painter’s tape to mask over any items you can’t move but don’t want to cover in putty, such as door or window trim. If there is a finished floor below the wall, cover it with plastic sheeting or drop cloths. \\nTaking a little time now to cover things up is much better than trying to remove wayward putty later.\\n1-3. Scrape off or sand down chips, flakes, and bumps.\\nIf you’re working with a new wall, you shouldn’t need to do much scraping or sanding. However, with older walls, use a paint scraper and/or coarse sandpaper (40-60 grit) to remove loose chips and flaking paint, primer or plaster. Use the sandpaper to also smooth out any bumps before proceeding.\\nIf there are smaller cracks or holes in the wall—no more than about 0.5 in (1.3 cm) wide or deep—use a screwdriver blade to scrape out any loose material. Cracks or holes larger than this cannot be properly filled with wall putty and must be repaired using other methods.\\n1-4. Use a dry brush over the entire wall.\\nBrush the wall thoroughly to remove any remaining chips or flakes, as well as dirt and dust. Any clean, sturdy whisk brush will do the job well.\\nKeep your protective mask and eyewear on, because you’ll kick up dust while brushing.\\n1-5. Wipe and moisten the wall with a clean sponge and water.\\nDip the sponge into your bucket of clean water, wring it out a little, and wipe over a section of the wall. Repeat the process until you’ve wiped the entire wall. The wall is now ready for putty.\\nDon’t worry if the wall is still damp when you start applying putty—this will only help it to adhere.\\nYou can also use a clean rag instead of a sponge.\\n2. Mixing the Putty and Patching Imperfections\\n2-1. Add water, then the putty powder, to a bucket in a 2:1 ratio.\\nRead the mixing instructions on your putty package to get the appropriate ratio for your product. Put the water in your bucket first, then add the correct amount of dry putty mix. \\nOnly mix an amount of putty that you can use within 2 hours, because it will become too hard to work with after that. If you’re not sure, err on the side of mixing less now and making an additional batch later.\\nHelp keep the putty moist while working by draping a damp towel over the top of the bucket.\\nDry-mix putty is cement-based and great for indoor or outdoor applications on plaster and concrete walls. Pre-mixed wall putty is acrylic-based and recommended only for interior use, particularly for repairs on painted walls.\\n2-2. Stir it until it is thoroughly mixed and smooth.\\nThe fasted and easiest way to mix the putty is to use a stirrer attachment on a power drill, set at a low mixing speed. However, you can also use a stirring stick or similar manual implement. In any case, make sure the dry mix is thoroughly incorporated and that there are no lumps.\\nThe putty should have a thick consistency, but not seem dry. If you pick up a scoop on a putty knife and hold it sideways, the putty should slide off in large globs.\\nIf necessary, alter the consistency by adding either more water or dry mix.\\n2-3.

2,074 | How to Apply Rain X Automobile Windshield Treatment | 1. Steps
1-1. Wash your car normally.
If you thoroughly clean and prep the windshield surface before applying, this step can be skipped.
1-2. Dry your windshield.
1-3. Apply Rain-x to half of the windshield at a time.
Apply Rain-X with a soft cloth (preferably microfiber cloth), and in a circular motion, firmly apply Rain-X into the windshield.
1-4. Buff with a different clean cloth.
Move up the windshield, gradually buffing out the haze, until you get to the top of the glass.
1-5. Take a clean cloth and go over all the surfaces one last time, buffing in circles rubbing off the last residue.
Tips
Applying Rain-X to your side and back windows can also help your general vision, and the ability to see your mirrors more clearly.
Using your wipers does seem to slightly wear away the film of Rain-X.
When the Rain-X is applied in proper quantity, water will bead on the surface into perfect circles (as you look down on them). When the beads, or drops, of water take irregular shapes, it's a sign that the sheeting action is wearing off.
Warnings
Though Rain-X may allow you to drive in the rain without using your wipers, always remember to turn your headlights on for safety.
Read the product label for any warnings or precautions.
During a mist situation when you also are driving under streetlights, be sure to use your wipers normally. The water droplets sitting on your windshield can create quite a glare if they are not wiped away.
Buffing the product off properly is very important because otherwise, you could leave a little haze of swirls in the glass, making it a harder to see out the windows and windshield. Proper buffing will restore the clarity of the glass.

2,075 | How to Apply Rainbow Eyeshadow | 1. Preparing for the Look
1-1. Plan your face makeup.
You don’t have to wear anything other than eyeshadow, but it is helpful to plan your face makeup out if you do wear it. You could go with a subtle look of matte foundation, light blush, and nude lips. It’s also an option to take the look all the way and use colorful highlighter, contouring, and bright lips. Set out the makeup, but wait to do it until you’ve done your eyeshadow because it tends to fallout as you apply it.
Rainbow highlighter is available in most beauty supply stores and online.
Choose a color of your rainbow eyeshadow, like red, for bright lipstick.
1-2. Prime your eyes.
Use a primer that is specifically made to be underneath eyeshadow. Simply dab the primer on your lids where you will be applying the eyeshadow. If you don’t have a primer, put a little foundation and powder on the eyelids to achieve an even base. These additions will ensure the shadows don't fade too quickly.
You can also add a white primer or white eyeshadow to make the rainbow eyeshadow pop even more when it is applied.
1-3. Set out your brushes and shadows.
Three brushes are ideal to use for this look. Get out a pencil type brush, a blending or crease brush, and a larger highlight color brush. Set out your eyeshadow after the brushes. Then, put out some cotton swabs, makeup remover, and foundation so you can correct any mistakes you may make.
Make sure the brushes are clean because dirty brushes can harbor germs and will make your eyeshadow colors appear muddy
You can still achieve this look if you don’t have all of these brushes, but it may not be as easy.
2. Applying the Rainbow Shades
2-1. Dab the first shadow on the inner corners of your eyes.
A bright pink eye or red shadow is a good option for the first color, but you can start with a different color. Just make sure the next color you apply can fade into the next. Dab the eyeshadow out towards the inner corner of the lid with a highlight brush.
Tap your brushes off first before applying each of the next eyeshadows so you don't get fallout on your cheeks.
2-2. Apply the next color to the center of your eyelid.
Begin to add an orange eye shadow right next to the pink or red. The orange should be applied to the center of your eyelid. Again, use the highlighter brush to do this. Then, begin to blend the two shades together with a blending brush..
If you started with a different color, look at the colors of the rainbow and follow with a color that is close to the color you chose on the spectrum. For example, apply green next if you started with yellow.
Dab the eyeshadow application brush onto a paper towel between the two colors so the colors do not blend on the brush.
2-3. Move on to the outer edges of your eyelids.
Use the highlighter brush again to apply a yellow eye shadow. Put the yellow on top of where the orange has begun to fade. Fade the yellow slightly further along to the outer edges of your eyelid.
If you chose a different color, apply a color that would follow that color on the spectrum. For example, apply blue now if green was your second color.
2-4. Apply the next color below your waterline.
For the green and blue part of the rainbow, apply the eyeshadow with a pencil brush. Apply the green eyeshadow just below your waterline and near your bottom eyelashes. Fade the color a little further along the lower eye. It should come to the middle of your bottom eyelashes.
An indigo-like color would be the next color if blue was your last color.
2-5. Finish with the inner corner of your lower eyelid.
Apply a strip of blue eyeshadow slightly onto the green. Fade that almost to the inner corner of your lower eyelid. It should meet with the pink eyeshadow you started with in the corner of your eye.
If indigo or violet was your last color, you could finish with a pop of red or pink.
3. Completing the Look
3-1. Blend the shadows for a seamless transition.
Look at the rainbow eye shadow in a mirror. Use your application brush to neatly blend the colors together. Don’t blend all of the colors together—just the colors the outer edges of the colors that are next to each other. To get the most seamless effect possible between colors, use a clean brush, or even a clean finger to lightly mix the colors together. This will create new colors to ease the transition.
At this point you can use foundation or cotton swabs to correct any mistakes.
If you think a color does not look bright enough, simply go back and repeat a step until you're satisfied.
3-2. Apply eyeliner.
This isn’t necessary, but it can enhance the look. Line the top eyelid, just above the waterline, with black eyeliner. Or, you can stay colorful and use a bright blue or colored eyeliner.
3-3. Finish the look with mascara.
Curl your lashes before applying mascara. A black, volumizing mascara would make the overall look bolder. You can also go for a subtler look with a clear mascara, or continue the colorful look with a deep blue mascara.
It’s also an option to use false eyelashes.
Tips
Apply an eyebrow powder or pencil to darken your eyebrows and to create a dynamic contrast to your vibrant eyeshadow hues.
Don't be afraid to experiment. There are no hard rules of makeup except for a few obvious ones—like matching your foundation to your skin tone.
To achieve other vibrant colors, consider dabbing the eyeshadow brush in water before you apply the shadow. Just be careful to not have too much water on the brush or the colors could run together.
Warnings
Make sure your makeup is not out of date before using it. Your eyes could be harmed if the makeup is no longer supposed to be used.
Keep in mind that such bright makeup may be against certain school or work dress codes.

2,076 | How to Apply Raw Milk on Your Face | 1. Moisturizing and Toning Your Skin
1-1. Wash your face with a gentle cleanser.
Use a face cleanser that is fragrance- and dye-free to wash away any dirt and oil on your skin. Gently pat your skin dry with a towel.
1-2. Dab 2 tablespoons (30 mL) of raw milk onto a cotton pad.
Make sure the milk you are using says “raw” or “unpasteurized” somewhere on the container. Dab a small amount of milk onto a cotton pad and allow it to soak in.
Depending on where you live, raw milk may not be legal to purchase in grocery stores since it has not been heat-treated and could contain dangerous bacteria.
To find out where you can purchase raw milk near you, visit https://www.rawmilkinstitute.org/find-raw-milk
1-3. Rub the cotton pad on your face for 1 minute.
Use gentle, circular motions to apply the milk to your face. Apply it to every corner of your skin, including your eyelids and up to your hairline. Try to catch any drips of milk before they run off of your face and rub them in.
The natural vitamins and minerals in raw milk help to lock in moisture and even out your skin tone.
1-4. Rinse your face with cool water.
Cool water helps to close your pores and lock in the moisture that was provided by the milk. Rinse away all of the milk on your face and gently pat your skin dry with a clean towel.
Never rub your face with a towel. This can hurt sensitive skin and make dry patches even flakier.
1-5. Apply the raw milk every day for best results.
If you want to keep your skin moisturized and even, apply raw milk to your skin once a day as part of your normal skincare routine. You can apply it in the morning or at night, whichever you prefer.
If you have oily or combination skin, raw milk may be enough of a moisturizer for you. If you have particularly dry skin, you may need to add some additional moisture to your face with lotion.
2. Lightening Dark Spots
2-1. Mix 3 tablespoons (44 mL) of milk with 1 US tbsp (15 mL) of honey.
Raw milk has lactic acid that helps to dissolve impurities in your skin, while honey moisturizes your skin and leaves it feeling soft. Combine raw milk and honey in a bowl that you can take with you to the bathroom.
Try to find raw honey that has no additives in it for the best results.
2-2. Massage the mixture into your skin for 5 minutes.
Pick up small handfuls of the milk and honey mixture and use gentle circular motions to apply it to your skin. Avoid your eyes and the delicate skin around them. Massage it into your skin for about 5 minutes total. If you have any noticeable dark spots on your face, spend more time massaging the mixture into those areas.
You can also use a cotton pad to apply your mixture if you’d like to.
2-3. Let the mixture sit on your skin for another 5 minutes.
Milk and honey both work to refresh and rejuvenate your skin. Let them sit on your skin for about 5 minutes so that they have time to absorb into the deeper layers of your face.
You can finish the rest of your nighttime routine as you let the mixture sit.
2-4. Rinse your skin with cold water.
Cold water helps to lock in the moisture from the milk and honey by closing your pores. Rinse your face until the milk and honey mixture is all gone and gently pat your face dry with a towel.
2-5. Repeat this daily to remove dark spots and even out your skin tone.
Raw milk and honey are very gentle on the skin, so you can use the mixture as long as you’d like to. Keep using the milk and honey on your face until you have evened out your skin tone and removed any dark spots.
You may see results in about 1 month, depending on how dark your dark spots are.
3. Evening out Skin Tone and Tan
3-1. Mix 4 tbsp (36 g) of turmeric and 5 tablespoons (74 mL) of raw milk.
Turmeric is a spice that helps to lighten and even out your skin tone. Mix together raw milk and turmeric until they form a yellow paste.
You can purchase turmeric at most grocery stores in the spices section.
3-2. Apply the mixture to your face with your fingers.
Gently rub the turmeric and milk mixture all over your face in circular motions, avoiding your eyes completely. Make sure there is a thin layer over your entire face and neck.
Turmeric is also a mild exfoliant, so you may notice a slightly rough texture as you rub the mixture into your skin.
3-3. Let the mixture sit for 25 minutes.
The turmeric and milk will form a kind of paste that will be easy to keep on your skin. Allow it to sit for 25 minutes in order to lighten and brighten up your skin.
3-4. Rinse your skin with cold water.
Lock in the moisturizing properties of the milk by rinsing off your face with cold water. Gently pat your face dry with a towel.
3-5. Repeat this 3 to 4 times a week until your skin is even.
Raw milk and turmeric work hand in hand to even out your skin tone and brighten up your face. Put your mixture on your skin a few times a week until your skin looks the way you would like it to.
Turmeric is not a bleaching agent, so it won’t strip your skin of any natural pigmentation.
Warnings
Raw milk does not get heat-treated to remove any bacteria. If you get flu-like symptoms like nausea, vomiting, headaches, or fevers after ingesting raw milk, go to the doctor right away.[19]

2,077 | How to Apply Reflexology to the Ears | 1. Beginning the Reflexology Process
1-1. Have a reflexology chart on hand if possible.
It's great to go into the situation with a reflexology chart. If you forget any of the pressure points on the ears, you can quickly consult your chart. If possible, bring a reflexology chart into the room where you'll be doing ear reflexology.
If you don't have an ear reflexology chart, you can print one from the internet.
Don't worry—these pressure points will be in same spot on every person.
1-2. Get in the right position.
You should do reflexology in a quiet room where you will not be disturbed. Find a comfortable chair or couch. Sit upright in a comfortable position to do ear reflexology.
1-3. Prepare your ears for touch.
Start with the lobes. Gently press your lobes between your index finger and thumb. Pull them down gently as you press them. Do only a gentle tug. Stop pulling if you feel pain.
1-4. Check for sensitive areas.
You do not want to perform reflexology on any sore areas of your ears. Trace your fingers along your ears. Notice any sore or sensitive areas, or any scratches or abrasions. Leave these areas alone while doing reflexology. Reflexology should reduce, not increase, pain and discomfort.
2. Massaging the Pressure Points
2-1. Focus on your back and shoulders.
If your back and shoulders are bothering you, massage your ears on the pressure points that target these areas. The pressure points are found on the top of your ear, near its tip. Massage the tips of your ears to address back and shoulder issues.
You can massage your ears for anywhere from a few minutes to half an hour. For a very sore back and shoulders, focus on these pressure points longer. If your back and shoulders are not a major problem, only linger near your ear tips for a few minutes.
2-2. Deal with joint pain.
If you have joint pain, the pressure point for this is found in the upper middle part of the ear. To address joint pain, gently massage this area. Apply pressure to this area for only a few minutes to see a potential change.
For best results, apply pressure once a day.
2-3. Address your organs.
For severe internal pain, you should always talk to a doctor. However, if pain persists after medical treatment, reflexology may help you ease some of that pain. The pressure point for organ pain is where the bridge of your ear meets the outside of the ear. Massage this area for a few minutes.
2-4. Help with your sinus and throat.
For sinus and throat problems, focus on the pressure point in the lower-inner portion of the ear. Apply gentle pressure here. For some, this helps clear out sinuses and allow easier breathing.
Any chronic sinus or throat problems should be addressed by a doctor.
2-5. Deal with digestion.
Digestive issues can be aided by applying pressure to the point just above the earlobe. Spend a few minutes gently massaging this area.
For best results, massage this area as digestive discomfort occurs.
2-6. Focus on the head and heart.
The earlobe is closely associated with the head and heart. Pressure headaches may be helped by massaging the earlobes.
If you have very intense headaches or chest pains, see a doctor.
3. Taking Safety Precautions
3-1. Refrain from reflexology if you have health conditions.
Not everyone should do reflexology. If you have any of the following health conditions, refrain from reflexology:
Deep vein thrombosis
Thrombophlebitis
Cellulite on your feet or your hands
An infection
A high temperature
A high-risk pregnancy
Two weeks after a stroke
3-2. See a doctor for persistent symptoms.
Reflexology is not a medical science. While some people find it effectively helps manage aches and pains, you should not rely on it to treat chronic conditions. Any type of ache or pain that does not go away on its own should be evaluated by a medical professional.
3-3. Understand reflexology is not a cure.
If you have a chronic condition, remember reflexology will not cure it. Something like chronic sinus issues, for example, will continue to be an issue even when using reflexology. Think of reflexology as a means to ease symptoms rather than cure a medical ailment.
Warnings
You can use a small, blunt reflexology tool to apply pressure to the inner ear reflex points, but be sure the object is not pointed and that you don’t insert it into your ear canal.

2,078 | How to Apply Reflexology to the Hands | 1. Learning the Associated Zones on Your Hands
1-1. Look at a hand reflexology chart.
Though this Part will describe some of the points on the hands that reflexologists associate with different parts of the body, some of the points can be easier to visualize with an actual hand reflexology chart.
1-2. Apply to the tops of the fingers for the head, brain, and sinuses.
From the tip of each finger—including your thumb—to the first joint represents the head, brain, and sinuses.
The center of the pads of your thumbs specifically represent the pituitary, pineal, and hypothalamus glands located in the center of the brain, which can make them beneficial for insomnia and other sleep issues.
1-3. Apply between the first and second knuckles for your neck.
The section of all four fingers and your thumb between your first and second knuckles corresponds to your neck. Additionally, the zone for your throat is at the base of your thumbs, aligned with the webbing of your thumb.
1-4. Apply between the second and third knuckles of each finger for your eyes and ears.
Your fingers between the second and third knuckles represent either your eyes or ears depending on the finger. Your index and middle fingers are associated with your eyes, whereas your ring fingers and pinkies are associated with your ears.
1-5. Apply to the upper portion of your palm for your upper chest.
The chest, breast, lung, and bronchial areas are located just below the knuckles of the four fingers on the palm sides of both hands.
1-6. Extend a line from your middle finger down the center of your palm.
Just below the previous upper chest zone, picture four more zones descending down in line with your middle finger. Each of the four is about the size of a dime, and the fourth ends at the bottom of your palm. In descending order, these zones represent your:
Solar plexus
Adrenal glands
Kidneys
Intestines
1-7. Apply to the outside of your palm (toward your thumb).
Starting at the base of your thumb (the throat zone described above) and leading down to the bottom of your palm on the side closest to your thumb, you quickly descend through four thin zones. In descending order, these zones correspond to your:
Thyroid gland
Pancreas
Bladder
Uterus/prostate
Note that the outside ridge of this same area represents your spine and spinal column. The spinal column is found along the side of the right and left thumb, reaching down to the wrist with the cervical spine located closest to the thumb, followed by the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral areas.
1-8. Apply to the inside area of your palms.
Imagine a line running down the insides of your palms from your pinkies down to your wrists. There are three more zones here with each about the size of a nickel. The top zone on both hands applies to the arm and shoulder on the respective side of the body, and the bottom of the three zones on each hands corresponds to the respective side’s hip and thigh. The middle zone on the left hand applies to the heart and spleen while the middle zone on the right hand represents the liver and gall bladder since these organs themselves are located on particular sides of your body.
1-9. Apply to the wrist.
Just beneath your palm on your wrist, you will find three more zones. The lymph system is located in line with your middle finger right where your palm ends and your wrist begins. Right next to this zone (in line with your pinkies), you will find the zones representing the testes/ovaries. Finally, beneath both of these zones in a long thin line, you will find the location corresponding to your sciatic nerve.
2. Applying Reflexology Techniques to the Zones of the Hands
2-1. Locate the correct, corresponding area.
Use a reflexology chart or Part One to find the zone that corresponds to the area of your body on which you want to work. Or you can simply work the entire hands, which reflexologists believe helps to promote overall wellness.
For instance, if you suffer from a sinus headache, then you would work on your fingers between the fingertips and the first knuckles since this zone represents the head and sinuses. This area may also help relieve symptoms of sinusitis, although no proven evidence exists.
As another example, if you’re suffering from constipation, you would apply the techniques to the zones corresponding to your intestines, which is at the bottom of the palms straight down from your middle fingers.
2-2. Use thumb-walking techniques.
Place your fully extended thumb on the area you want to focus on. Slide the thumb back slowly while flexing the first thumb knuckle upward. Moving slowly and steadily move the thumb knuckle up and down, walking it over the reflex point.
2-3. Use a rotating motion.
Rest your thumb on the area you wish to manipulate. Maintain a steady touch and rotate your thumb in a circle on the area while slowly increasing pressure.
2-4. Apply pressure after rotating.
After performing a rotating motion, holding your thumb on the reflex point with medium pressure increases relaxation. Hold for a count of three.
2-5. Integrate the different techniques.
If you have chest congestion, for instance, you would isolate the correct zone on each hand (the top of the palm just below the last set of finger knuckles). Then you can use a thumb-walking technique across the zone. Finally, apply the rotating technique to smaller sections of the zone with a hold on the section before moving to the next.
2-6. Press firmly without causing any pain.
As you increase pressure on portions of the hands, you should apply as much pressure as you can without causing yourself (or the person on whom you’re applying reflexology) any pain. The firm pressure will ensure that you trigger the reflex, but the action should never cause pain or discomfort.
2-7. Stimulate the zones on both hands.
Reflexologists believe that it is important to stimulate the corresponding zones on both hands when applying the techniques. For instance, do not work the fingertips (associated with the head) on just your left hand. Instead, work the fingertips on both hands.
Note that this isn’t the case for zones that are only represented on one hand—the heart of liver, for example.
2-8. Relax and drink plenty of water after your session.
Much like a regular massage, reflexologists recommend that you drink lots of water after a hand reflexology session to help your body remove the lactic acid that builds up and is released during the session. As your body flushes out this lactic acid (the 24 to 48 hours after the session), it is also normal to experience increased urination and bowel movements, as well as sweating and changes to sleep patterns.
Lactic acid release is also responsible for the feeling of burning or tingling sensation in muscles that have recently been stimulated (such as by massage).
You can also drink a sports drink containing electrolytes to help you hydrate.
Tips
While a darkened, quiet room is ideal for a session, you can do hand reflexology while sitting on a plane or at your desk at work.
When giving a hand reflexology session to a friend, have them sit across a table from you and place a towel underneath their hands and wrists so that their hands will remain relaxed.
Reflexologists suggest working the reflex points on both hands so that your body doesn’t get out of balance.
Warnings
Don’t do hand reflexology if you have a hand injury. Instead, use another form of reflexology, such as foot or ear reflexology until your hand is healed.
Reflexology is a complementary healing modality. Don’t try to diagnose and treat yourself for any serious illness or condition. Get the advice of a licensed medical practitioner in addition to applying reflexology on yourself.
Be careful not to apply too much pressure, as it could cause nerve or musculoskeletal damage.

Every part of the body, including your organs, is matched by a corresponding reflex point on your hands. Applying pressure to the reflex points on your hands stimulates nerve impulses that travel to the corresponding body area. These impulses produce a relaxation response. As muscles relax, blood vessels open, increasing circulation, which increases the amount of available oxygen and nutrients that get to cells in that part of the body.

2,079 | How to Apply Rolled Roofing | 1. Preparing to Add Rolled Roofing
1-1. Measure your roof to find out how much material you need.
If you can, get a friend or someone else to help you. Use a long measuring tape. If your roof is rectangular or square on either side, it's easy to work out the measurements. Measure the length and width and multiply them to find the area of the roof.
If your roof is not uniform and has different sections of different sizes, measure 1 section at a time. Multiply each length and width to find the area of each section.
Add the section areas together to find the total area of the roof.
Get an extra 5-10% of material to account for overhangs and overlap.
1-2. Purchase the appropriate amount of rolled roofing.
Go to your local hardware or building supplies store and ask for enough rolled roofing to fit the area of your roof. Rolled roofing comes in rolls, much like carpet. You can cut the roll to fit corners and other areas.
1-3. Take proper safety precautions when you're on your roof.
For safety purposes, it's a good idea to have someone with you when you're walking around on a roof. Never go up on your roof when it's wet or if rain is forecast. Roofs become very slippery when wet. Even when it's dry, watch your footing and move slowly when walking on a slanted roof.
Wear footwear with proper grip on the soles. Don't go up on your roof with canvas shoes or sneakers on.
1-4. Clean the roof before starting the roofing.
Before you apply your rolled roofing, you should make sure it's free of excess dirt, grime, or any other substance. Use a brush to sweep away any leaves and dirt or use a leaf blower to blow debris from the top down to the edges. If you can, hose down the roof from the ground or a ladder.
Wear long pants, work gloves, and shoes with deep ridges so they have a good grip.
Never go on top of the roof to hose it. Hose it from a safe area where you are in no danger of falling from the roof. Make sure your roof is completely dry before installing your roofing.
Have a friend with you to help or alert other people in case you lose your footing on the roof.
If you have gutters, clear them out with gloves and a bucket.
1-5. Lay all of your materials out on the floor.
So you don't get confused later in the process, it's a good idea to take stock of all your items before you start. Roll out the roofing sheets and lay them flat on the ground. Place bricks in the corner to keep it down and reduce resistance later.
If you're doing this in the winter, roll your roofing sheets out in a garage. Cold weather damages roofing sheets.
Cut pieces into 12–18 feet (3.7–5.5 m) sections and lay them out flat in your yard. Let them flatten in the sun for a day. If the temperature drops below 45 °F (7 °C), keep the roofing in your garage or inside.
2. Installing the Rolled Roofing
2-1. Mark a chalk line to identify the end of your first layer.
Using a measuring tape, measure 35 inches (89 cm) up from the bottom of the roof and make a mark with chalk. The measurement of 35 inches (89 cm) is the default measurement used by most roofing professionals. Use a ruler or meter stick to draw the chalk line across the roof.
Avoid using eaves as guides as they are not necessarily placed at the same height across the roof.
2-2. Apply roofing cement to the roof.
Use a trowel to scoop up the roofing cement. Spread the roofing cement along the edges of your roof so it’s about ⁄8–⁄4 inch (3.2–6.4 mm) thick. You can get roofing cement at the local hardware or building supplies store.
Apply the cement in stages. Do the bottom part of the roof before you start working on that section, apply it to the middle before you start working there, and so on. Use the chalk lines as the borders of each section.
Always wear gloves when working with roofing cement.
Read the instructions on the side of the roofing cement container before you begin.
2-3. Cut the rolled roofing to the right size using a razor knife.
The rolled roofing should reach the chalk line when you lay it down and should stretch from 1 side of the roof to the other. You'll need to use plenty of pressure with the razor knife to cut the rolled roofing material.
2-4. Place the first layer of rolled roofing on the roof.
As you place the rolled roofing down, stretch it to get rid of wrinkles and creasing. Push the rolled roofing down into the wet cement to secure it to the roof.
The first layer should cover the roof as far as the chalk line.
2-5. Hammer nails into the rolled roofing to secure it.
Make sure you use a strong hammer and 1 inch (2.5 cm) roofing nails. Hammer the nails in at 10 inches (25 cm) intervals across the roof. Ensure that you hammer the nails properly into the roof, don't leave the nails sticking up above the layer.
Be careful when working with a hammer and nails on a roof. Make sure you have a stable grip on the roof.
2-6. Measure and mark another chalk line above the first layer.
Use your measuring tape again to measure up 32 inches (81 cm) above the first layer. The shorter length is because you'll be laying part of the second layer on top of the first layer.
Draw the chalk line across the length of the roof.
2-7. Apply roofing cement and secure the second layer to the roof.
Get your trowel and another scoop of cement and apply it on the roof below the second chalk line. Once the cement is spread across the roof, it's time to place the second layer down. As mentioned above, place the first 6 inches (15 cm) of the second layer on top of the first layer.
When nailing the second layer into the roof, make sure you nail the first and second layers together.
Repeat this process for the rest of the roof.
2-8. Cover the nails with cement to secure them in place.
When you have all of your layers applied and your roof is covered in rolled roofing, use cement to cover your nails. This will seal the nails into the rolled roofing.
2-9. Trim the edges of the layers and seal the edges.
Use your razor knife to remove any excess rolled roofing. Take special note of the corners and edges of the roof. When you're finished trimming, test the edges to see if you can lift them.
If you can lift the edges, use some more cement to seal them in place.
2-10. Clean the rolled roofing before you finish.
Have another look at the roofing and use a brush to remove any excess dirt or other materials. There shouldn't be that much dirt on the roof at this point of the process.
Once the roof is clean, you're finished.
Tips
The width of the rolled roofing can vary from 36 to 39 inches (91.4 to 99.1 cm) depending on your supplier. Just adjust the above dimensions up 3 inches (7.2 cm) for the chalk line.
Use an underlayment under your rolled roofing for extra insulation and weather protection. You can find underlayment at your local home improvement or hardware store.
Warnings
Rolled roofing is not recommended for roofs that have a greater than a 2 to 12 pitch. That is, if your roof is 12 units wide it should not be taller than 2 units for rolled roofing.
Do not try to apply rolled roofing in temperatures less than 45 to 50 degrees Fahrenheit (7.2 to 12.8 degrees Celsius) or warmer than 85 degrees Fahrenheit (29.4 Celsius). The roofing material can easily be cracked or punctured when cold or torn and the mineral coating rubbed off when hot.[17]

2,080 | How to Apply Self Tanner | 1. Preparation
1-1. Choose a type of self tanner.
There are so many self tanning products out there, it can be difficult to choose one that will work for you. Some formulas allow you to build a tan gradually over the course of a few days or a week, while others immediately stain your skin bronze. Some are long-lasting, while others wear off after a week or wash off at the end of the day. Figure out which product is best for your needs:
These come in the form of creams, gels, sprays or foams. Gradual self-tanning formulas usually contain either dihydroxyacetone (DHA) and Erythrulose, both of which work by reacting with the amino acids on the skin surface to create a darker complexion. One application will darken the skin by just a shade or so, but you can keep applying the product over the course of several days to achieve the color you want.
Most instant tanners are sprays that you can apply immediately for a sun-kissed look. Some stay in place for about a week, while others can be washed away at the end of the day. Instant formulas are trickier to apply than gradual formulas, since they stain the skin right away and might leave streaks.
Look for a self-tanner designed for use on the face if yours is on the sensitive or oily side. While most self-tanners work on the body and the face equally well, you'll want to get one specifically for the face if your skin is a little finicky.
If you have fair skin, choose a light to medium color. If you have olive skin, choose a dark formula. You can always reapply the self-tanner to deepen your tan if your first application looks too light.
1-2. Remove thick hair from the places you want to tan.
Thick hair can get in the way of self-tanner when you're trying to apply it evenly. You might want to shave or wax your legs (and arms, if necessary) to ensure you'll be happy with the final appearance of your tan.
If you have fine hair on your legs or arms, there's no need to remove it before tanning unless you want to.
Guys might also want to shave or wax the chest or back before applying self tanner.
1-3. Exfoliate your skin.
No matter what your skin type, is, it's best to exfoliate well in the shower before tanning. When your skin has dry, flaky patches, it's a lot harder to apply self-tanner evenly, and you'll end up with a patchy look instead of a pretty finish. The chemicals in self tanner react with amino acids in the upper layers of your skin. By removing the uppermost layer (which would've sloughed off on its own soon anyway) you're ensuring that the tan develops in a fresh layer that's going to be around longer. Also, dry skin tends to absorb more color, increasing the likelihood of an uneven tan. To exfoliate, use a washcloth, a scrub brush or scrub gel to thoroughly exfoliate all of the areas you're tanning.
Focus on rough spots like your elbows and knees. The self-tanner tends to darken these areas more than other parts of your body, since it soaks in faster. Rough skin will cause the application to look even more uneven.
Moisturize the skin after exfoliating, particularly if your skin is dry. Pay attention to areas like the knees and elbows where tan can build up. Use lotion or oil to trap the moisture in your skin after your shower. Allow it to fully absorb into your skin over an hour or so before you apply the self-tanner.
Try to exfoliate at least 8 hours before applying the tanner. This gives your skin's pH time to neutralize, which will help the color develop.
1-4. Dry off.
It's important that while you're applying the self tanner, your skin is completely dry. If you're going to be in the bathroom, wait for any humidity from the bath or shower to subside. Make sure it's cool enough wherever you are so that you don't sweat for the next few hours.
Make sure you aren't wearing any makeup, lotion, deodorant, old tanner, or any other products that could get in the way of your new tan.
1-5. Allow several hours for the tanning process.
A rushed self-tanning job is immediately obvious. You'll miss some spots, have streaky areas or stain your clothes and hands. Do yourself a favor and set aside several hours so you can make sure you have enough time to thoroughly and evenly cover each area you're planning to tan.
2. Application
2-1. Use a tanning mitt (available in most drugstores) or put on a pair of latex gloves.
This will protect your palms from turning 'orange'. The palms of your hands don't naturally tan, so if you get self-tanner on them it'll be a dead giveaway that your tan came from a bottle instead of the sun's rays. If you don't have latex gloves or a tanning mitt handy, you can wash your hands with soapy water throughout the process to remove self-tanner.
You may also want to protect your bathroom surfaces by putting down an old sheet or a plastic tarp and applying the self-tanner while standing on it. Keep nice towels and other items out of the way. Self-tanner is known for creating tough stains.
2-2. Apply it to your legs, torso and arms.
Working from the ankles up toward your torso will result in a natural-looking tan. Squeeze a small amount of tanning product into the palm of your hand. Spread the tanner over your skin in broad circular motions. Follow the instructions that came with your formula to determine how long to rub it in. Apply it to one body part at a time so you can be sure not to miss any spots.
If you're using a spray tanner, follow the directions regarding how far you should hold the can from your body and how long you should spray any given area. Holding it too close or spraying too long could result in an uneven tan.
Around your feet, spread the tanner from your legs onto your ankles and the tops of your feet, and use as little as possible in this area. Don't apply any to your toes, heels, or the sides of your feet, since these areas don't tan much naturally. It may be a good idea to use a makeup brush for this step, so you can really blend it in well.
If you're applying it to your back, use a strap or a band for even application. Better yet, ask a friend to help you out.
If you aren't wearing gloves, use a timer and make sure you wash your hands every five minutes, scrubbing under and around the nails.
While most people don't have tanned underarms, avoiding that area can be difficult, so it's better to apply self tanner there and lightly wipe with a damp washcloth about five minutes later.
2-3. Blend at the ankles, wrists and joints.
Blending the tanning lotion with a regular lotion around the ankles, wrists, knees and elbows will result in a lighter, more natural-looking application around these areas. Any type of regular moisturizing lotion works well.
Apply a very small amount of regular lotion to the tops of your feet (if you are using gloves, rinse them in water and dry them to ensure no additional tan will mix in with the moisturiser, or wash hands afterwards) and blend it with the tanner that you've already applied around your ankles.
Apply a small amount of regular lotion around your knees, especially just below the knee.
Do the same thing to your elbows, especially the part that puckers when your arm is straight.
Use plenty of lotion on your hands, and blend it into your wrists.
2-4. Apply it to your face and neck.
Apply the tanner sparingly on your face and neck because that skin will darken easily. Start by applying it to the places where you naturally tan: your forehead, the apples of your cheeks, your chin, and the bridge of your nose. Using a steady circular motion, smooth the tanning lotion outward to cover the rest of your face as well.
You might want to apply some petroleum jelly to your eyebrows before you begin, that way the tanning lotion won't collect there and darken the area too much.
Be careful not to get too much tanning lotion on your upper lip, as this spot absorbs more lotion than other areas on the face.
Don't forget to apply it behind your ears and the back of your neck, especially if you have short hair.
2-5. Wait.
Avoid contact with anything or anyone for the first 15 minutes, and don't get dressed for an hour. If that's not convenient, you can put on a loose article of clothing, but make it something you don't mind staining. Avoid contact with water or doing anything that'll make you sweat for the first three hours after application.
Try to wait 8 hours before showering or bathing again. Avoid exfoliating or using retinol on your skin for several days.
Wait at least 8 hours before deciding to apply more tanner. It takes awhile to work, and if you act too soon you might end up too tan!
If you feel sticky, you can apply baby powder with a large body powder puff 30–60 minutes after applying the lotion. Don't rub it in, though, or it could affect the finish of your tan.
3. Finishing
3-1. Apply more tanning lotion to bare spots.
If you missed a spot or two, don't worry! You can easily correct the problem with a little extra tanning lotion. Put on a fresh pair of latex gloves, rub a dime-sized amount of tanner in your palm, and lightly apply it to the bare spots. Be sure to blend it around the edges so it'll look even when it begins to show up.
Be extra careful not to use too much tanner this second time around. If you accidentally spread too much on your skin, wipe it off with a tissue right away.
3-2. Rinse in cool water to avoid tan leaking from the skin.
Remove tanner from places that are too dark. If you have streaky spots or patches that are darker than the surrounding areas, you'll need to take a bit of the tanner off. This can be tricky, but luckily there are a few different methods to choose from:
Use a scrub brush or a washcloth to firmly scrub the spot in question. The tanner should fade a little in that spot.
Dip a tissue in lemon juice and dab it on the affected area. Let it dry completely and sit for about 20 minutes, then wash it off.
3-3. Keep your skin moisturized for a lasting tan.
As your top layer of skin dries and begins to flake, your tan will begin flaking away and fading, too. To make it last longer, keep your skin moisturized by rubbing lotion on it every day. Use sunscreen when you go outside, since even bottle-tanned skin needs to be protect from the sun's drying and damaging rays.
3-4. Reapply self-tanner for a deeper tan.
If you want to go a few shades deeper, or your tan is beginning to fade, re-apply the self-tanner using the same method you used to begin with. Be sure to apply it evenly so you don't end up with some faded spots and some freshly tanned spots. Gradual self-tanners can be reapplied every few days to subtly deepen your tan.
3-5. Ensure to completely scrub the tan off at the end of the week, or when you feel you need to re-tan.
Use an exfoliating body scrub and/or exfoliating gloves with warm water to really remove the tan. It may take a few washes. Remember to keep moisturising. Then start the whole process again. By forgetting this step, your tan will build up in certain areas, collecting in between the fingers or elbows. Eventually it will become harder to scrub off if you miss this part, and will begin to look patchy. Focus on creating a nice, smooth base for your tan to develop onto.
Tips
Always apply in circular motions to even the tan.
Don't worry about borders; the skin on your lips and nipples won't be very much affected by self tanner, so don't go out of your way to avoid them.
Try mixing the tanner with lotion for a more gradual, natural tan.
Warnings
Even if the lotion contains sunscreen, don't expect it to protect you from the sun. Sunscreen is supposed to be applied liberally, so the thin coat you put on with self tanner isn't going to do much.
The reaction between your skin and the chemicals in tanner may cause an unpleasant smell. It'll go away after a few hours.

2,081 | How to Apply Self Tanner Without Streaks | 1. Cleanse and exfoliate your skin.
Smooth and clear skin means a less streaky tan.
Sweat, oil, and products like deodorant or lotion act as a barrier against self-tanner, so you’ll want to make sure they’re completely gone. Take a shower or bath at least 8 hours before you start the tanning process, and use an oil-free body wash or exfoliating scrub to cleanse your skin. Scrub your full body with a tool—like a washcloth, loofah, or body brush—to remove any particularly stubborn oils or gunk.
It's best to remove body hair the day before you tan. If you shave or wax the same day you apply the tanner, your tan can end up pretty patchy.
Don’t apply anything to your skin afterward—not even deodorant. It’ll interfere with your tan and could leave you splotchy.
2. Make sure your skin is totally dry.
Damp or dripping skin will mess up your tan.
When you’re putting on a self-tanner, moisture is likely to make your tan “run” and leave lines and streaks everywhere. Use a towel to fully dry your skin and hair before you begin applying your tanner. Stay out of warm or humid rooms, too, so that you don’t sweat.
3. Use lotion on too-dry spots.
Lotion can keep “trouble spots” from absorbing tanner too quickly.
Usually, you want to skip lotion when self-tanning, but dry skin is an exception to that: it tends to soak up tanner way too fast, making it look streaky or discolored. Use an oil-free lotion to moisturize your elbows, knees, wrists, hands, ankles, and feet; these are the areas with the driest skin.
If the skin on your face is dry, you might also want to apply lotion to your face.
If you don’t have any lotion on hand, you can also blot your skin with a wet (but not dripping!) towel. It's not ideal, but as long as you don't use too much water, your tan shouldn't streak.
4. Try using a fabric applicator, like a tanning mitt.
A flat, even surface gives you a smoother tan.
Putting on tanner with bare hands won’t necessarily get you the most even application, and you can end up with really stained hands. Spreading your tanner across a cloth or fabric surface first will give you an even layer. Many people recommend putting your self-tanner on a tanning mitt, but any fabric that wraps around your hand will work: for instance, old socks.
If you don’t have anything available, you can use your bare hands. Just remember to wash them thoroughly after each section.
Rubber gloves can work for self-tanner, but if they’re loose or wrinkly, they might not apply the tanner evenly.
5. Use a moderate amount of tanner.
It’s vital to find the sweet spot between “too much” and “too little”.
Slapping on a thick coat of self-tanner means you’re less likely to get an even tan—and you could wind up with a more intense tan than you wanted. A really thin layer can give you streaks too, though: if you don’t have enough, your hand or mitt can “catch.” If you have enough tanner, your hand or mitt will glide smoothly over your skin as you apply it.
There's no one "correct" amount of tanner to use. You might need to experiment a little to figure out how much you need.
To start, make sure there’s enough product on your hand or mitt to cover the entire area you want to tan.
6. Put the tanner on in sections, using long strokes.
Long “sweeping” strokes cover your skin more evenly.
You might be tempted to put on self-tanner in small patches at a time or work on your arms and chest first. But it’s actually more helpful to apply self-tanner at your ankles first, and to “sweep” it across your skin as you make your way upwards. You’ll cover a wider area and are less likely to wind up with streaks.
Try not to bend your fingers. The tanner will go on more smoothly if you keep your palm flat.
Check yourself periodically in the mirror to make sure you haven’t missed any spots.
7. Use tools with long handles to tackle your back.
Long-handled brushes or sticks make even coverage easier.
It can be tricky trying to reach that "one spot" on your back, and asking someone else to help you is a pretty big exercise in trust. If you have a tool with a long handle, though—like a body brush or back-scratcher, or even a spoon or stick—you can put a tanning mitt or old sock on the end, and rubber-band it in place. Use wide, sweeping strokes to put the tanner on your back.
8. Get the smaller spots with sponges or brushes.
“Painting” on your tan can hide streaks and crease marks.
Evenly applying tanner into creases, folds, or small areas is impossible with tanning mitts or other large tools. But if you add some self-tanner to a foundation sponge or makeup brush, you can more easily get the tan into those tough spots. Wipe off any extra tanner, and quickly sweep the brush in a circle over the creases or small spots.
This method is great for applying tanner to your knees, underarms, fingers, and toes.
If you don’t have a foundation sponge, a sponge paintbrush also works.
9. Allow your tan to “set” for a few hours.
You don’t want to ruin your tan right after finishing it!
Most self-tanners need 6 or 8 hours to develop, and moisture or friction can mess up all your hard work. It’s usually okay to get dressed 10 minutes after applying your tanner, but put on loose clothing rather than anything form-fitting. You’ll also want to hold off on exercising, hanging out in the heat, or swimming; water or sweat can still give you a “runny” tan at this point.
Try not to touch your skin too much; it can leave marks.
Avoid showering for 10 hours after applying the tanner.
10. Avoid oil or chlorinated water.
Your tan isn’t invincible after it sets.
While self-tanner won’t easily streak after it’s fully soaked in, oil-based products or water can definitely break it down, leaving it patchy or uneven. Make sure that your self-care products (like shampoo, body wash, and moisturizer) don’t contain oil, and try to limit your time in the pool—oil and chlorine, in particular, don’t play nicely with self-tanner.
Most of the time, your tan will naturally fade in about a week, so don’t worry if your tan looks like it’s fading after a few days.
11. Exfoliate streaks to fade them away.
Streaks don’t always mean you need to redo your whole tan.
Don’t panic if you realize your skin looks streaky! Instead, grab a washcloth or exfoliation brush, and gently rub the streaks with a tiny bit of exfoliating scrub. Eventually, the streaks will fade and blend into the rest of your tan. You can touch it up with more self-tanner afterward, if need be.
Makeup removal wipes will also fade self-tanner, but they’re better for fixing huge discolored patches, not small streaks.
Tips
You might want to pin your hair back with bobby pins or pull it into a bun, so it doesn’t touch your skin during the tanning process.

2,082 | How to Apply Self Tanner to Your Back | 1. Readying Your Back for Self-Tanner
1-1. Work in an area near a large mirror.
It's a good idea to work near a large mirror. This way, you can turn your back to the mirror and keep an eye on what you're doing.
1-2. Shave your back, if necessary.
Hair can make self-tanner less effective. If you have hair on your back, shave or wax it off prior to applying self-tanner. This will help the self-tanner apply evenly to your back.
As it can be difficult to shave or wax your own back, you may want to have your back shaved professionally before applying self-tanner.
1-3. Exfoliate first.
Exfoliating your skin is important before applying self-tanner. This will help your tan look smooth and even. Use an exfoliating body rub and a brush or sponge. Rub the body scrub into your skin to remove dead skin cells and leave your skin fresh. Rinse the scrub off when you're done.
Exfoliate any areas where you plan to apply self-tanner.
When exfoliating areas like your back, it's easiest to exfoliate in the shower.
As reaching your back can be difficult, try using a shower brush with a long handle.
1-4. Dry your skin completely.
Self-tanner needs to be applied to dry skin. Make sure to dab your back dry with a towel after exfoliating. For best results, wait about 20 minutes after getting out of the shower to apply self-tanner.
2. Applying the Tanner to Your Back
2-1. Tan areas you can reach using your hands.
It's always best to apply self-tanner with your hands as this allows you the most control. Apply the self-tanner to any areas on your back you can easily reach first. Put a tanning glove o one hand. Add a pump of self tanner to a tanning glove and rub down areas you can reach like your shoulders, lower back, and upper back with the self-tanner.
2-2. Tie a tanning mitt on the end of a wooden spoon.
Take a wooden spoon from your kitchen. Tie the tanning gloves around the wooden spoon using a rubber band.
2-3. Apply more tanner to the mitt.
Add two generous pumps of tanner to the mitt to apply the tanner to your back. As it can be difficult to precisely control the mitt when applying self-tanner using a spoon, a little extra tanner is important. You can expect some tanner to smear and fall during the process.
2-4. Sweep the spoon in up and down motions.
As you apply the tanner to your back, sweep the spoon in up and down motions. Go over every area of your back you cannot cover with your hands a few times. This will help the self-tanner spread on in smooth, even layers, leaving you with a realistic-looking tan.
It can help to stand with your back to a mirror and look over your shoulder. This will allow you to see where you're applying the tanner.
3. Finishing the Process
3-1. Use a mist formula to adjust harsh lines.
After you apply your tanner, look at your back in a mirror to examine your work. When applying tanner using a wooden spoon, you may notice harsh lines. To adjust harsh lines, use a mist formula that you can spritz on. Bend forward and bow your head down. Then, spray the tanner from side-to-side, holding the bottle just above your head. The formula should disperse throughout your back. This should remove any harsh lines that were left on during the up and down motions you made previously with the tanning mitt.
3-2. Let the tanner dry completely.
Before you put your clothes back on, it's important to let the tanner dry completely. Do not dress until the tanner is completely dry to the touch. Times vary depending on the type of tanner you used.
To speed up the process, take a blow dryer and blow it on your skin over areas where you applied the tanner.
Your tan needs anywhere from 6-8 hours to develop. So make sure you remain in your house. As rain, sweat, etc. can cause self-tanner to drip—and dry streaked.
Wear loose clothing. Tight clothing, even socks, and shoes can rub the tan and cause streaking.
Avoid showering for 10 hours.
3-3. Fix up any patches you notice after tanning.
The following day, after showering, you may notice some patches, especially in hard to reach areas like your back. Add a little more self-tanner to any patchy areas. Let it dry just as you did before. This should make your tan look more even and natural.
Tips
It can help to assist someone else to help you. Have someone help check your tan to see if it looks okay to even apply the self-tanner for you.

2,083 | How to Apply Serum to Your Hair | 1. Getting the Right Products
1-1. Consider your options before buying hair serum.
Check the labels and compare the hair serums to find one that fits your hair needs. There are different types of hair serum you can use depending on your hair type and preference. If you have thin hair, you may want to try a thickening serum. Or if you have fine hair, there are also lightweight serums for people whose hair does not require as much moisture. If you style your hair often, there are hair serums that also protect against damage due to heat. If you already have damage from styling tools, you may want to purchase a serum with keratin, which can help put protein back in your hair. There are also specifically designed serums to enhance the curls in curly and wavy hair, those that add high gloss, and on the other side, there are hair serums used to create a more natural looking hairstyles.
You can find a range of hair serums at any department store or pharmacy.
1-2. Apply a few squirts of serum to your hair before washing it.
This is an optional step. Some people find that adding serum to the ends of their hair before they wash helps to fight the frizzing and drying caused by the chemicals in shampoos. To protect your hair while you wash, use more serum in your hair than normal. Apply 3-4 squirts of serum to the midsection and especially the ends of your hair.
Wash and rinse your hair as normal, making sure to wash all of the soap out of your hair.
1-3. Wash and condition your hair before you style.
Another way to use serum requires that you apply the serum to soaking wet hair. When you shower, it is a good idea to use a moisturizing shampoo and conditioner that are good for dry hair. Or if you have wavy or curly hair, you can buy anti-frizz shampoo and conditioner or shampoo and conditioner for curly/wavy hair hair.
Consider doing a “no-poo” routine for cleansing wavy and curly hair. If you are trying to create more natural waves, there are shampoos without cleaning agents that rough up the cuticle and create frizz.
If you are planning on only applying the serum to your styled hair, you can skip this step.
2. Using the Right Amount of Serum
2-1. Gently blot a couple of drops of serum into your soaking wet hair.
Do not towel dry your hair before you apply serum. Hair experts say that it is best to apply hair serum directly to wet hair. Use 1-2 drops of serum on medium length hair. Rub the serum between your palms well, and then evenly distribute onto the midsection and ends of hair.
Be careful not to use too much serum, it may make your hair greasy and heavy if you do.
2-2. Style your hair normally.
Consider using a heat protectant spray on your hair before you style your hair with heat. You want to try to keep your hair as naturally strong and vibrant as possible so you can use less serum.
2-3. Squirt a small amount of serum in your hand.
After you have styled your hair, put a teardrop amount of serum in your hand to start. You can always add more later. If you don’t want to squirt it in your hand, you squeeze out one to two finger tips worth of serum from the nozzle.
2-4. Rub the serum in your palms well.
Distribute the drop in your palms evenly to help you evenly distribute the serum in your hair. For example, you don’t want all of your serum to end up in one spot on your head.
3. Applying the Serum
3-1. Apply the serum to the back of your hair first.
Don’t start with the front or the top of your hair and ruin your style with too much serum. Instead, use your hands to gently blot the serum into the midsection and tips of your hair- starting at the back and moving forward to the front of your hair. This way, if you apply too much to your hair to start, it won’t be noticeable.
3-2. Add more serum if needed.
If you have been very careful not to over apply serum, you may need to add a little more to your hair. If your hair still looks a little dry, apply another drop to your hand, and, again, rub it between your palms well. Apply it now to the sides and front of your hair. The serum should make your hair less frizzy, more flexible and more vibrant.
3-3. Curl little pieces of your hair.
After you have blotted your hair with the serum and it has the shine you want, your hair might be due for a last little volume boost. If your hair is a little flat, go back and re-curl/style your hair to re-energize it.
3-4. Assess how the hair serum is doing.
If after a couple hours or a day your hair serum is leaving your hair greasy and heavy, consider shopping for another hair serum. You may have picked a serum that doesn’t suit your hair type. It is common with hair products that trial and error is necessary before you have success.
Warnings
Excessive amounts of serum will weigh down your hair and make it look greasy.

2,084 | How to Apply Shadow on Hooded Eyes | 1. Preparing Your Eyelids
1-1. Prime your eyelids.
While this is important for everyone, it’s especially critical for those with hooded eyes. Primer creates a base for your makeup that helps it stay put and last all day. Because hooded eyes are prone to smudging and smearing, primer can make all the difference.
Use your fingertip to apply the primer, and allow it to absorb into your skin for a minute or so before proceeding.
1-2. Gather your brushes.
There are a variety of different eye shadow brushes that work well for different things. To apply your eye shadow most precisely, you will need a standard eye shadow brush, a tapered blending brush, and a firmer, straight brush. These three brushes will help you to get the most flawless application.
You can find these brushes at a drugstore or beauty supply store.
1-3. Choose your colors.
For hooded eyes, you will use a light shade, a medium shade, and a dark shade, all with a matte finish. You will also need one light shimmer color for highlighting. When it comes to choosing the exact colors, it’s a matter of personal preference. You can create a more natural look using cream and brown colors, with a gold or bronze shimmer. You can create a dramatic smoky eye with grays, blacks, and silver shimmer.
You can learn more about finding your best eye shadow here.
2. Using Shadow to Accentuate Your Eyes
2-1. Avoid crease colors with shimmer.
This will highlight the hood, drawing attention to the extra skin that you want to minimize. Instead, use a shadow brush to apply a medium, matte color to your crease. This will give you dimension without emphasizing the hood.
2-2. Bring your crease color higher in the inner corners of your eyes.
This is another simple trick to make your eye appear larger and more open. After you’ve applied the matte shadow to your crease and blended it, use your shadow brush to softly drag this color upwards to your brow bone only in the inner corners.
You don’t want this to be dark or as pigmented as your crease – just a light application of color to open your eyes.
2-3. Apply a light shimmer to your inner corners.
If you have a beloved, light shimmer shadow, this is your chance to use it. By applying a bright shimmer into the inner corners of your eye, you will make your eyes appear vivid and youthful. Hooded eyes can make you look perpetually drowsy, so this inner corner highlight is a great way to counteract that.
A light gold, a pastel pink, or a pearl color are perfect choices for this step.
Apply it lightly with a shadow brush or even with a fingertip.
2-4. Use a light shadow to highlight the brow bone.
The keyword here is light. You don’t want to use a super pigmented, frosty color, because that will make your highlight look extremely bold and unnatural. Instead, pick a soft, matte color in a color like champagne, baby pink, soft silver, or light brown. Apply it with a light hand, directly under your brow. This will give your brow bone more dimension.
2-5. Apply a dark color to your outer corner.
Using a tapered blending brush, apply the dark shadow to the outer corner of your eye, focusing on the crease. This will accentuate the crease even more, carving it out to add depth. Blend it thoroughly, so that there are no harsh lines in your shadow.
2-6. Brush a light color onto your lid.
When it comes to hooded eyes, the focus should be on the inner and outer corners, which are most visible. In fact for many people with hooded eyes, the middle of the lid is completely hidden when your eyes are open. Don’t leave it naked though. Apply a light color to the lid, softly blending it into the dark color on the outer corner and the shimmer in the inner corner.
3. Enhancing Your Eyes Alternatively
3-1. Fill in your eyebrows.
Just like eye shadow, a properly filled-in eyebrow can help to enhance the shape of your hooded eye, making it look open and elongated. Use an angled brow brush to fill in the thin, sparse areas of your eyebrow with a powder or gel.
Use small, hair-like strokes as you fill in your brows. Use a spoolie to brush your brow hairs upwards in order to see every spot that needs to be filled in.
For hooded eyes, it’s very important to avoid dragging the tail of the eyebrow downwards. Pay special attention to make sure the tail ends parallel with the outer corner of your eye. Make sure it doesn’t extend past that or swoop downwards dramatically, because this will make your hooded eye seem droopy.
3-2. Apply black eyeliner to the outer corners of your eyes.
Rather than lining your entire eye with eyeliner, only apply the product to the outer corner on both the top and bottom lash lines. Use an eyeliner that you can blend, such as a pencil. Start applying the liner in the outer corner, moving inwards so that you’ve lined about 1/3 of your bottom lash line. Then, do the same thing on the top lash line.
Use a straight brush to blend the liner. The goal with this step is to soften out the line, helping it blend into your shadow.
Make sure to use a smudge-proof eyeliner.
3-3. Add a lighter, shimmer liner on the bottom of the inner corners.
Once again, adding a highlight to the inner corners of your eyes will make them look bigger, brighter, and more alert. This liner works with the shimmery shadow in your inner corners to really combat the droopiness of hooded eyes.
A shimmery brown, bronze, gold or silver will work well for this step.
3-4. Curl your lashes and apply mascara.
Use your eyelash curler at the roots of your eyelashes, holding for a few seconds on each. Curling your eyelashes upwards will also help to open your eyes up. Then, apply your favorite mascara. For those with hooded eyes, your mascara is prone to rubbing off onto your brow bone. Make sure you choose a smudge-proof mascara to keep your lashes dark and luscious, but your brow bone mascara-free.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Preparing Your Eyelids\\n1-1. Prime your eyelids.\\nWhile this is important for everyone, it’s especially critical for those with hooded eyes. Primer creates a base for your makeup that helps it stay put and last all day. Because hooded eyes are prone to smudging and smearing, primer can make all the difference.\\nUse your fingertip to apply the primer, and allow it to absorb into your skin for a minute or so before proceeding.\\n1-2. Gather your brushes.\\nThere are a variety of different eye shadow brushes that work well for different things. To apply your eye shadow most precisely, you will need a standard eye shadow brush, a tapered blending brush, and a firmer, straight brush. These three brushes will help you to get the most flawless application.\\nYou can find these brushes at a drugstore or beauty supply store.\\n1-3. Choose your colors.\\nFor hooded eyes, you will use a light shade, a medium shade, and a dark shade, all with a matte finish. You will also need one light shimmer color for highlighting. When it comes to choosing the exact colors, it’s a matter of personal preference. You can create a more natural look using cream and brown colors, with a gold or bronze shimmer. You can create a dramatic smoky eye with grays, blacks, and silver shimmer.\\nYou can learn more about finding your best eye shadow here.\\n2. Using Shadow to Accentuate Your Eyes\\n2-1. Avoid crease colors with shimmer.\\nThis will highlight the hood, drawing attention to the extra skin that you want to minimize. Instead, use a shadow brush to apply a medium, matte color to your crease. This will give you dimension without emphasizing the hood.\\n2-2. Bring your crease color higher in the inner corners of your eyes.\\nThis is another simple trick to make your eye appear larger and more open. After you’ve applied the matte shadow to your crease and blended it, use your shadow brush to softly drag this color upwards to your brow bone only in the inner corners.\\nYou don’t want this to be dark or as pigmented as your crease – just a light application of color to open your eyes.\\n2-3. Apply a light shimmer to your inner corners.\\nIf you have a beloved, light shimmer shadow, this is your chance to use it. By applying a bright shimmer into the inner corners of your eye, you will make your eyes appear vivid and youthful. Hooded eyes can make you look perpetually drowsy, so this inner corner highlight is a great way to counteract that.\\nA light gold, a pastel pink, or a pearl color are perfect choices for this step.\\nApply it lightly with a shadow brush or even with a fingertip.\\n2-4. Use a light shadow to highlight the brow bone.\\nThe keyword here is light. You don’t want to use a super pigmented, frosty color, because that will make your highlight look extremely bold and unnatural. Instead, pick a soft, matte color in a color like champagne, baby pink, soft silver, or light brown. Apply it with a light hand, directly under your brow. This will give your brow bone more dimension.\\n2-5. Apply a dark color to your outer corner.\\nUsing a tapered blending brush, apply the dark shadow to the outer corner of your eye, focusing on the crease. This will accentuate the crease even more, carving it out to add depth. Blend it thoroughly, so that there are no harsh lines in your shadow.\\n2-6. Brush a light color onto your lid.\\nWhen it comes to hooded eyes, the focus should be on the inner and outer corners, which are most visible. In fact for many people with hooded eyes, the middle of the lid is completely hidden when your eyes are open. Don’t leave it naked though. Apply a light color to the lid, softly blending it into the dark color on the outer corner and the shimmer in the inner corner.\\n3. Enhancing Your Eyes Alternatively\\n3-1. Fill in your eyebrows.\\nJust like eye shadow, a properly filled-in eyebrow can help to enhance the shape of your hooded eye, making it look open and elongated. Use an angled brow brush to fill in the thin, sparse areas of your eyebrow with a powder or gel.\\nUse small, hair-like strokes as you fill in your brows. Use a spoolie to brush your brow hairs upwards in order to see every spot that needs to be filled in.\\nFor hooded eyes, it’s very important to avoid dragging the tail of the eyebrow downwards. Pay special attention to make sure the tail ends parallel with the outer corner of your eye. Make sure it doesn’t extend past that or swoop downwards dramatically, because this will make your hooded eye seem droopy.\\n3-2. Apply black eyeliner to the outer corners of your eyes.\\nRather than lining your entire eye with eyeliner, only apply the product to the outer corner on both the top and bottom lash lines. Use an eyeliner that you can blend, such as a pencil. Start applying the liner in the outer corner, moving inwards so that you’ve lined about 1/3 of your bottom lash line. Then, do the same thing on the top lash line.\\nUse a straight brush to blend the liner. The goal with this step is to soften out the line, helping it blend into your shadow.\\nMake sure to use a smudge-proof eyeliner.\\n3-3. Add a lighter, shimmer liner on the bottom of the inner corners.\\nOnce again, adding a highlight to the inner corners of your eyes will make them look bigger, brighter, and more alert. This liner works with the shimmery shadow in your inner corners to really combat the droopiness of hooded eyes.\\nA shimmery brown, bronze, gold or silver will work well for this step.\\n3-4. Curl your lashes and apply mascara.\\nUse your eyelash curler at the roots of your eyelashes, holding for a few seconds on each. Curling your eyelashes upwards will also help to open your eyes up. Then, apply your favorite mascara. For those with hooded eyes, your mascara is prone to rubbing off onto your brow bone. Make sure you choose a smudge-proof mascara to keep your lashes dark and luscious, but your brow bone mascara-free.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"When it comes to applying eye makeup, the common goal is to make eyes look bigger.

2,085 | How to Apply Shellac | 1. Steps
1-1. Prepare the area for finishing by sanding it smooth.
Use a coarse-grit sandpaper to go over the entire piece. If there is an old finish applied to the wood, make sure to sand it away completely. After sanding, wipe the piece down with a clean cloth to remove any dust and dirt.
1-2. Pour some of the shellac into a separate bucket.
Avoid dipping your brush directly into the shellac can, as this can contaminate the product with wood dust and other particles. Instead, load your brush from a separate bucket.
1-3. Select an appropriate brush for your project.
Shellac can either be applied with a natural-bristled brush (china bristle is ideal) or a synthetic-bristled brush. Note that it can be difficult to clean the shellac from a natural-bristled brush without damaging the bristles. Do not use a foam brush to apply shellac, as the shellac tends to dry into the brush too quickly and hardens it.
1-4. Load the brush with shellac.
Dip the brush into the bucket of shellac and press it gently against the side of the bucket to remove the excess.
1-5. Apply the shellac to the wood.
Shellac should be applied in long, smooth strokes, following the grain of the wood to ensure an even application. Shellac dries very quickly, so it is important to work quickly and efficiently.
If you miss a spot when applying the shellac, avoid going back to touch it up. Because shellac dries very quickly, the partially dried shellac that is already applied will not blend smoothly into the fresh application. The missed spot will become less noticeable as more coats are applied.
1-6. Allow the shellac to dry before sanding the finish.
Let the first coat dry completely, which can take as little as 30 minutes in a well-ventilated area. Once it is dry, sand the entire finish lightly with a fine-grit sandpaper to prepare it for the next coat of shellac.
1-7. Apply the second coat of shellac.
Apply the next coat just as you did the first, being careful to work along the grain. When the second coat is dry, you can sand the finish again and apply another coat, or simply leave the wood with 2 coats.
1-8. Clean your brush.
Shellac can be cleaned from brushes with a mixture of ammonia and water. Mix equal parts ammonia and water, and then soak the brush bristles in the mixture. Rinse the brush and allow it to dry before storing.
Tips
Shellac can be thinned with denatured alcohol if desired.

2,086 | How to Apply Shimmer Powder on Your Face and Body | 1. Choosing a Shimmer Powder
1-1. Look for a powder with a very fine shimmer.
When you’re picking out a shimmer powder, look for very fine, shiny powders with no visible flecks of glitter. A fine shimmer will ensure that you look glowing and dewy, as opposed to flashy and glittery.
1-2. Choose a bronze or golden shimmer powder if your skin is dark or tan.
These colors will highlight your natural coloring and accentuate the warmth in your skin tone.
1-3. Stick to silver, champagne, or pink shimmers for light skin.
If you have a fair complexion, it’s best to choose a shimmer powder with a lighter tone as well. Choose a silver shimmer for a sleek evening look, or opt for a peach-toned shimmer for a warm, everyday look.
2. Applying Shimmer Powder on Your Face
2-1. Use shimmer powder to highlight your best facial features.
Generally, shimmer powder will draw attention to certain facial features while adding definition to your bone structure. While it is recommended that you add shimmer powder to all of the areas detailed below, you can also pick and choose depending on the facial features you wish to highlight.
2-2. Apply shimmer powder after you’ve applied the rest of your makeup.
Because shimmer powder is so light, it’s best to layer it as a finishing touch on top of any other products you choose to use. Putting on shimmer powder should be the final step of your makeup routine.
2-3. Pat a makeup brush into your shimmer powder.
Choose a small makeup brush - a blush brush is the perfect size - and lightly rub the fluffy end into the shimmer container. Tap the hard end of the brush onto a table to clear away excess powder.
Repeat this step after you’ve finished applying shimmer to one area of your face, and before you start applying shimmer to a different area.
2-4. Spread a light layer of shimmer powder across your brow bone.
Using your makeup brush, apply the powder with gentle horizontal strokes to the area between your eyebrows and the tops of your eyelids. After an initial stroke to apply the powder, lightly sweep your brush along your brow bone several times to blend the powder.
2-5. Brush shimmer powder onto the tops of your cheekbones.
Locate your cheekbones by finding the hard ridge right beneath your eyes. Use your brush to lightly pat shimmer to the tops of your cheekbones, and then use a circular brushing motion to blend the shimmer down the length of your bone, angling in towards the mouth.
2-6. Run your makeup brush down the bridge of your nose.
Apply and blend shimmer in a thin line down the center of your nose to make your nose appear slimmer and more defined.
2-7. Dust shimmer along your jawline.
Start with your brush beneath one earlobe, and use light, diagonal strokes to spread shimmer along the jawline. Perform this step on both sides of your face. The shimmer will add more definition to your bone structure, making your jawline appear sharper.
2-8. Add a small dab of shimmer to the inside corners of your eyes.
Use a small angled brush if you have one, but if not, use the tip of your pinky finger. Dab a small amount of shimmer to the area directly between the inside corner of your eye and the bridge of your nose. This will make your eyes appear bigger.
3. Using Shimmer Powder on Your Body
3-1. Apply shimmer powder before you get dressed.
Doing so will minimize the chances of getting shimmer on your clothes. If you’ve recently showered, wait for your skin to dry completely before applying shimmer powder.
3-2. Dab a large makeup brush into your shimmer powder.
A fluffy body brush is ideal for applying shimmer powder to larger areas of your body, but if you don’t have one, a large blush brush will work as well. Tap the hard end of your brush against a table to remove excess powder.
3-3. Brush a light layer of shimmer powder down your neck and along your collarbone.
Use light, downward strokes on the neck, and extend those strokes along the length of your collarbone. This will highlight the areas of your skin that catch the most natural light.
3-4. Brush shimmer along the top of your chest and cleavage.
If you’re wearing a shirt with an open cut, accentuate your chest by applying light strokes of shimmer along your bust line.
3-5. Spread shimmer down the length of your shin bone.
If you’re wearing an outfit that reveals your legs, dust shimmer down the center of your legs. Starting at the bottom of your knee, make downward sweeping motions with your brush to spread the shimmer powder. This will make your legs appear slimmer and more defined.
Tips
Start with a small amount of shimmer powder. Especially if you’re using this product for the first time, it’s best to start with a little and add more later.

2,087 | How to Apply Shoulder Injury Compression Wraps | 1. Applying a Shoulder Compression Wrap
1-1. Ensure that a compression wrap is an appropriate treatment.
Tightly wrapped bandages can reduce swelling and increase circulation, but can also risk worsening an injury that should not be compressed. Shoulder injuries that typically benefit from this treatment are those caused by repetitive stress such as weight lifting, golf swings, or volleyball serves, or mild injuries experienced while playing sports or falling.
If you’re unsure whether a different form of treatment may be more appropriate, see the “Knowing When to Get Professional Attention” section of this article.
It can be difficult to wrap a shoulder because it's not good to put a lot of pressure on the armpit area. You might consider another treatment like icing the area, instead.
Do not use a compression wrap on an injured person to try to stabilize the shoulder during transportation to the hospital.
If new pain or tingling occurs during the wrapping process, remove the wrap immediately and see a healthcare professional.
Use caution when applying compression to areas where there is severe peripheral artery disease or a severe infection. Also be aware of any allergies to certain materials, such as latex.
1-2. Procure the materials you’ll need to wrap the shoulder.
You’ll need a roll of compression bandage, bandage clips or pins, and a cloth long enough to serve as a sling.
Wash your hands with an antibacterial soap and clean water before touching the injury or any of the medical supplies.
Alternatively, you can purchase premade shoulder compression wraps. Many of these include built-in pockets for heating or icing implements. Try on a few to ensure you find one that comfortably fits.
1-3. Wrap the shoulder tightly and carefully.
Position the end of the compression bandage on top of the injured shoulder, wrapping backwards around the armpit twice. Unroll the bandage as needed, making sure to keep the end of the bandage in place on their shoulder blade.
As you complete the second wrap go down and across the back, beneath the other arm, and around the chest.
Make sure the bandage is snug but not so tight that the person cannot breathe.
1-4. Repeat the shoulder wrap.
Wrap around the shoulder through the armpit again, and continue wrapping onto the bicep for added support. Ensure the wrap is snug enough to provide sufficient compression to stimulate the flow of blood to the area.
1-5. Secure the end of the compression.
Finish wrapping the bandage by pinning the wrap in place where the pins will be safe and secure. At this point, you also need to ensure you have not compressed the muscle tissue too much, as this may detrimentally reduce blood flow (the opposite of what you hope the wrap will achieve).
Any numbness indicates that you’ve the wrapped the shoulder too tightly and need to re-wrap the shoulder a bit more loosely.
To ensure the compression bandage is not too tight, check the circulation of the affected arm by pinching a fingertip (including the nail in the pinch) for about two seconds. After about two more seconds, the nail of the pinched finger should return to its normal pinkish color.
If it takes more than two seconds for the pinched nail to turn back, the blood flow may be ineffective because of a tight compression bandage. Remove and reapply the compression bandage until it is snug but not too tight.
If there is any pain, it should start to go down after you apply the bandage. If there is an increase in pain, then redo the wrapping.
2. Stabilizing the Shoulder and Reducing Swelling
2-1. Place the arm in a sling.
Using a sling reduces movement of the arm and the injured shoulder while it heals.
Aside from purchasing an appropriately-sized sling, you can also make one with a meter-length cloth. Fold the cloth diagonally, arranging it into an elongated triangle that can be wrapped beneath the forearm of the injured arm and secured around the opposite shoulder.
Secure the injured arm at a comfortable angle across the person’s chest (roughly horizontal), with the sling’s strap over the opposite shoulder.
Perform this maneuver as gently as possible to avoid straining the injured arm.
2-2. Adjust the sling as needed.
It is important to make sure that the sling feels comfortable, so you may need to make some adjustments. The entire forearm up to the hand should be supported by the sling. The sling should not be too tight or placed too high up either. If the sling is too high, then you may experience discomfort and tension in your shoulder.
2-3. Ice the injured shoulder if recently injured.
The cold temperature will actually reduce blood flow to the injured shoulder, which can help reduce any pain and swelling following an injury. Icing with compression is more effective in reducing tissue temperature than icing alone.
Wrap the ice pack in a towel or other cloth before wrapping it to your shoulder as directed previously, though with slightly less compression.
Apply the cold pack for no more than 20 minutes. For the best results, remove the cold pack after 20 minutes, let the injured area rest for 20 minutes and then reapply the cold pack for another 20 minutes.
If the injured shoulder becomes numb at any point, remove the cold pack and repeat the compression wrap process before re-applying the cold compress.
Do not apply ice directly to the surface of the skin. This can lead to an increased risk of frostbite. Always wrap the ice pack in a towel first.
2-4. Shift to a hot compress after 48 hours.
A hot compress will stimulate blood flow to the injured shoulder, which is vital to the recovery process. This will also relax the muscles and reduce any muscle pain. A hot compress can also improve the flexibility of the tendons and ligaments in the injured shoulder.
Do not use a hot compress if the injured shoulder is swollen. It may cause more swelling.
Hot compresses are available in multiple forms. Some create warmth via electric power, while others need to be microwaved or simply shaken.
A rubber hot water bottle is best. Whatever you use, be careful that it does not become dangerously hot.
As with a cold press, wrap or hold the hot compress in some sort of cloth before bandaging it to the shoulder as previously directed, though again, with less compression than you had used without an icing or heating element.
Only apply a hot compress to the injured area for 20 minutes at a time.
3. Knowing When to Get Professional Attention
3-1. Seek medical attention for discoloration, numbness, or tingling.
These symptoms may indicate a serious injury that cannot be wrapped at home and must be looked at by a doctor, who may suggest other treatment options, such as surgery.
Bluish discoloration, numbness, tingling, prickling, stinging or any odd sensations felt in the injured shoulder likely indicate insufficient blood and oxygen supply to the area. See a doctor if you experience any of these sensations.
3-2. Get medical attention for open wounds on or near your shoulder.
An open wound indicates significant force placed on the shoulder during a fall or accident, and you may not have recognized the internal damage to your shoulder.
The skin may even have been punctured by a broken bone, which definitely necessitates professional medical attention.
3-3. See an orthopedic specialist to help identify a persistent shoulder injury.
An orthopedic specialist can help identify the type and severity of your injury. They will also be able to provide you the best advice in terms of treatment options, including specific ways to wrap and compress a shoulder.
Warnings
Again, do not wrap, ice, or heat an injury with open wounds or stitches.
Applying heat to an injured shoulder is not recommended for those suffering from poor circulation and diabetes.

2,088 | How to Apply Silicone Sealant | 1. Utilizing a Silicone Gun
1-1. Press down on the gun’s release tab and pull the pressure valve.
This is the long, metal plunger in the back, usually underneath the release tab. This will allow you to load the tube of silicone sealant.
1-2. Insert the tube of silicone into the gun.
Insert it at an angle, base first, and then push it up into the gun. The nozzle of the silicone tube should be sticking out of the opposite end from the release tab and pressure tab.
1-3. Adjust the trigger so that it is calibrated with the size of your tube.
To do this, squeeze the trigger slowly and gently until the mechanism touches the silicone tube. You will then be able to lock the silicone tube firmly in place.
1-4. Prepare the surface you wish to seal.
Before you apply silicone sealant, make sure that the surface is completely free of any dust, dirt, or particles. Any bits of matter can potentially cause a weaker seal. To prepare your surface:
Soak a sponge in soapy water and wipe down your surface.
Rinse out your sponge and use it again to wipe down the area.
Dry off the area with a towel. Be sure to remove all water completely, as any moisture can cause problems.
1-5. Cut a hole in the silicone tube.
Snip the tube at a 45 degree angle, and as close to the tip as possible. This will ensure that the hole is very small, making it easier for you to control the flow of sealant.
You can use either scissors or a utility knife to cut the sealant tube.
1-6. Test your silicone on a piece of scrap material.
If the sealant is not flowing to your liking, snip a little bit more off of the tube. Gradually cut small bits off until the sealant is flowing at the desired pace.
1-7. Apply the sealant to your surface.
Squeeze the trigger as evenly and steadily as possible. Drag the tube nozzle slowly along the seam of your project.
Spread the sealant evenly. Wet your finger, and have a container of water nearby. Use your finger to spread the sealant evenly. Keep getting your finger wet as you work.
You can also spread the sealant by pressing a piece of masking tape down onto the bead line. Then, pull the tape away before the silicone gets tacky. This should give you a smooth, straight line exactly where you want it to go.
1-8. Allow the sealant to dry.
While most silicon sealants will feel dry to the touch within 30 minutes to an hour, this does not mean the seal is ready.
Wait at least 24 hours for the seal to dry before using your project.
You can try using a fan or a blow dryer on low heat to help the silicone a little faster, but it will still need time to cure.
You can also purchase a quick-curing silicone caulk. These don't cost any more than other types of silicone caulk, and they'll be water-ready in about 30 minutes.
2. Using a Can of Sealant
2-1. Use a window scraper to remove any unwanted residue.
Make sure your surface is absolutely clean so that the sealant will adhere properly.
If you are resealing surface, the window scraper will help you pull away bits of previous sealant or caulk.
2-2. Brush away all dust and debris.
A cleaning brush and some paper towels will work for this.
Make sure that your surface is absolutely dry. Use extra paper towels if necessary.
2-3. Cut the tip off of the can of sealant.
You can even use your window scraper to do this. Lay it flat on a cutting board and take off the tip at a 45 degree angle.
If the hole isn’t big enough, you can always cut a little more off later.
2-4. Drag the tip of the sealant along the surface of the seam.
It’s okay if too much comes out initially. You can neaten this up and wipe off the excess later.
2-5. Let the sealant dry.
While it may seem to be dry much sooner, it’s best to give it 24 hours to fully set.
Tips
If you don’t have a silicone gun or you’re having problems with your silicone tube, removing the sealant and putting it in something else, like a cake decorating bag or resealable plastic bag, is your best shot.
Warnings
Wash your hands thoroughly after using silicone sealants. Chemicals in some sealants can be toxic.

2,089 | How to Apply Simple Everyday Makeup | 1. Prepping Your Face
1-1. Wash your face.
Before applying makeup in the morning, wash your face so you'll be able to start with a fresh canvas. Use a cleanser or simply splash lukewarm water on your face a few times to wash away any debris on your skin. Pat it dry gently with a soft towel.
Avoid washing your face with hot water. This will dry it out and leave it prone to irritation. Lukewarm water is best when you're washing your face.
Don't scrub your face dry. This causes fragile facial skin to loosen over time.
1-2. Consider exfoliating
It's not necessary to exfoliate every day, but doing so every few days is essential to keeping your skin looking fresh. Putting makeup on over dry, flaky skin defeats the purpose! Exfoliate your skin using either a small facial brush, an exfoliating scrub, or another exfoliating tool designed for use on the face. Focus on areas that tend to get dry and flaky.
Using a face mask from time to time is another good way to keep your facial skin in good shape. Choose a clay mask, which will cleanse your pores and help pull off dry skin when you wash it away.
1-3. Apply a moisturizer.
The last step before applying makeup is putting on some moisturizing lotion. This will help your makeup go on more easily and create a better final look. Choose a good face moisturizer that works with your skin type. Massage it gently all over your face. Don't forget your eyelids, lips, and nose.
Let the moisturizer absorb into your skin for a few minutes before you move on to applying makeup. Putting makeup on while your face is still wet or sticky will result in a mess!
2. Applying Foundation and Powder
2-1. Apply foundation that matches the tone of your skin.
Choose a foundation that works with your skin type and matches your coloring. Liquid foundation is a fine choice for many types of skin. You can also use tinted moisturizer or BB cream. If your skin is on the oily side, you might want to consider a compact or powder foundation. In the store, test your foundation to make sure it matches your face by dabbing a little on your jaw bone. Never apply it on the back of your hand as the skin colour is different from your face .
Apply the foundation evenly over your face using a foundation brush, pad or your finger. Make sure it doesn't cake or clump anywhere.
Avoid putting extra layers of foundation over blemishes. It'll only make them stand out more.
Blend the foundation around the edges of your face and where it meets the bottom of your chin.
2-2. Apply concealer.
Choose a concealer that matches your skin tone - or, if you have dark under-eye circles, go one shade lighter. Apply a light amount of concealer using either a concealer brush or your finger by dabbing it under your eyes and gently blending it in. This will make your eyes look bright instead of sleepy.
If you're trying to pare down your makeup routine, you can skip the concealer. It all depends on which features you want to play down and which you want to highlight.
Use a little extra concealer on blemishes if necessary (making sure to use a color that matches your skin tone).
2-3. Apply powder.
Choose a powder that matches your skin tone. Use a powder brush (a large, fluffy brush that will apply the powder evenly) to apply the powder to your face in a circular motion. This will give your face a natural-looking finish and help set your foundation so that it stays in place all day.
On days when you have more time to spend applying makeup, you can also apply bronzer and highlighter to contour your face. Bronzer helps create flattering shadows, while highlighter brightens areas you want to have pop.
2-4. Apply blush.
Choose a pink-toned blush that brings out the best in your facial coloring. Swirl a blush brush in the container, smile, and apply it to the apples of your cheeks in a circular motion.
3. Applying Eye Makeup and Lip Color
3-1. Apply eyeshadow.
Choose a neutral shadow pallet for a simple, everyday look. Brown, gold, grey, and blue tones are all good choices, depending on your eye color. Avoid bright colors, "smokey eye" pallets, and other bold jewel tones, as they'll look out of place during the day. Here's how to apply eyeshadow to make it look natural and pretty:
Start by applying a base shadow in a color close to your skin tone. Use your finger or an eyeshadow brush to apply it on your lid and all the way up to your eyebrow.
Apply a medium-dark color to your lid, working your way from your eyelashes up to the crease.
Use a fluffy brush to blend the colors at the crease.
3-2. Apply eyeliner.
Choose a charcoal, navy, or brown eyeliner to use during the day - save your black eyeliner for nighttime wear. Apply it just above your eyelashes, taking care to make sure it goes on smooth and straight. Use your eye shadow brush to blend it lightly so that the line looks less harsh.
You can use a pencil liner or a liquid liner. Either one is great for daytime use. You can also use a dark eyeshadow for a more natural look.
If the line gets smudged, use a cotton swab to gently remove it, then reapply.
For an everyday look, don't use liner on your lower lids.
3-3. Apply mascara.
Apply one coat of mascara on both your upper and lower lashes. Insert the brush at the base of your lashes and sweep outward. After you're finished with one eye, dip the brush in the bottle again before applying mascara to the other eye. Either black or brown mascara is fine for everyday wear.
If you don't want to apply mascara, you can use an eyelash curler to curl your lashes for a natural, pretty look.
3-4. Apply lip color.
Use a pink or neutral-colored lipstick or lip gloss to finish your everyday look. Avoid using heavy lipliner and bright, bold colors during the day. Dab a tissue on your lips to remove excess lipstick or gloss.
If you want to use a bright color, you can mute it for daytime wear by applying it to your bottom lip, rubbing your lips together to coat both of them in color, then applying a clear gloss.
3-5. Finished.
Warnings
Don't overdo it, or it will look tacky.

2,090 | How to Apply Simple Makeup | 1. Prepping Your Face For Makeup
1-1. Wash your face.
Prior to applying makeup, you must properly prepare your skin for the application. To remove dirt and oils, thoroughly cleanse your skin with a gentle facial wash product. Dab your face dry with a clean towel.
If there are any traces of makeup remaining, scrub your face in small circles with a cotton ball or swab dipped in makeup remover.
Avoid face washes that contain exfoliants. Exfoliants cause your skin to redden.
1-2. Moisturize your face.
Moisturizers soften and hydrate your skin. Evenly spread a pea-sized amount of moisturizer over the contours of your face. Allow the moisturizer to dry for approximately five minutes.
If you are prone to skin irritation, avoid scented moisturizers.
If your skin is naturally oily, avoid moisturizers that contain additional oils. Moisturizers with oils can cause acne.
1-3. Prime your face.
Primer is formulated to provide a smooth base for foundation, combat shine, and keep your makeup in place throughout the day. Dab a pea-sized amount of primer onto your fingertip. Dab the primer along your cheekbones, above your brows, and along the bridge of your nose. Use your fingers to evenly spread the primer out to the edges. Allow the primer to set on your face for a few minutes. This application method produces a light, even layer of primer that will help your foundation appear to rest naturally on your face.
Primer, like all of the products listed, is optional.
2. Creating an Even and Natural Complexion with Subtle Highlights
2-1. Assess your skin tone.
Uneven skin tone is caused by hyper pigmentation. Uneven skin tone is characterized by isolated dark spots, blotches, and freckles. The presence of scars, especially acne scars, and sun spots are also markers of uneven skin tone. Note the areas of your complexion that are uneven. When applying foundation and concealer, take extra measures to cover these problem areas.
2-2. Apply foundation.
Foundation is designed to even out the areas of your complexion that are overly pigmented, red, or contain imperfections. To achieve a natural, light look, apply foundation only to the areas of your face that need the coverage. Use a foundation brush, makeup sponge, or your fingers to blend the foundation seamlessly with your natural complexion.
For enhanced protection to keep your facial skin healthy, look for a foundation or BB cream with an SPF of 30.
2-3. Apply concealer.
Concealer is meant to cover the problem areas that your foundation could not even out. Use a brush to apply a sparse amount of concealer to blemishes and around the edges of your nose. Apply a generous amount of concealer under your eyes to mask dark circles. Pat the application areas with your fingers to blend the concealer.
For a natural look, use a concealer that is one shade lighter than your skin tone.
2-4. Apply powder.
Powders help to combat oil and set your foundation. You may use a translucent powder or a tinted powder that perfectly matches your skin tone. Apply the powder to your face with a large brush. With the brush, create a “W” pattern on your face. Begin at the top left corner of your hairline, bring the brush down to your cheekbone, to the bridge of your nose, down to the opposite cheekbone, and up to the top right corner of your hairline.
Translucent powders are universal and may be used on any skin tone. They reflect light, which enhances your skin’s a natural glow.
3. Enhancing Your Lips, Cheeks, and Eyes
3-1. Apply blush to your cheeks.
When striving for a natural look, opt for blush over bronzer. Choose a blush that is subtle, soft, and as close to your natural flush as possible. Apply the blush to the apples of your cheeks. Blend the product until it subtly falls where your natural flush occurs.
3-2. Curl your lashes and apply a thin coat of mascara.
Keep your eye makeup simple and clean. Prior to applying mascara, curl your lashes. Apply up to two coats of mascara to each set of eyelashes with a thin-wand mascara comb.
If you have naturally dark lashes, skip this step or simply curl your lashes.
If you mess up putting on mascara or eyeshadow, you can use a makeup remover wipe to erase any small mistakes easily.
3-3. Enhance your lips’ natural pigment.
Complete your simple look with a lipstick and or gloss that intensifies the natural pigment of your lips. Select a light pink, peach, or sand colored lipstick. Lightly dab the lipstick on your bottom lip and rub your lips together. Apply a dash of clear lip gloss.
For an even simpler look, skip the lipstick and just apply a gloss.
Tips
High-end designer makeup is not always superior to drugstore makeup. While designer makeup does tend to have a higher amount of pigmentation, the ingredients are comparable to drugstore makeup.[26]
X
Research source
Use a SPF moisturizer.
Make sure your foundation matches your skin tone.
Warnings
Makeup can sometimes cause blemishes and breakouts.

2,091 | How to Apply Smokey Eyeshadow | 1. Creating a Simple Smokey Eye
1-1. Choose a dark color palette.
To create a smokey eye, you will need to work with a dark palette. A traditional smokey eye uses blacks and grays, but you can use dark hues of almost any color. Browns, golds, purples, greens, and navy blues all also work well for smokey eyes. You will need a dark eyeliner, a medium-dark eyeshadow, and highlight shadow in the same color group to make your smokey eye.
Look for colors and shades that match your skin tone. If you have very fair skin, a mid-tone shadow may be dark enough for a smokey eye with your complexion. If you have ebony skin, you’ll need to use a very deep shade to create a smokey eye.
Consider your eye color, as well. For instance, if you have brown eyes, you can make them stand out by creating a smokey eye with purple and golden brown tones.
Think about how you want to wear your smokey eye. A lighter, more subtle look could be dressed up or down during the daytime, while a very dark, dramatic smokey eye can be a bold statement when you plan to go out for the night.
1-2. Smudge eyeliner along your lash lines.
A basic smokey eye usually starts with eyeliner. Use a creamy pencil liner, and run it along your upper and lower lash lines. You should keep the liner thinner on the lower lash line, but you can go a little thicker across the upper lash line. Next, smudge the liner with a small brush, your finger, or a cotton bud to soften it.
Using your finger to smudge the liner will give your smokey eye a messier, grungier look if you prefer that type of makeup.
1-3. Sweep a dark shade across your lid.
The key to a smokey eye is using darker powder eyeshadows that give your eyes a sultry look. Use a small, flat brush to apply your chosen shade across your entire lid, even over the smudged liner. Concentrate more of the pigment on the outer corner of your eye, leaving the inner half of the lid lighter.
Use a light hand as you're applying the eyeshadow. It's a lot easier to build up to the coverage you want, rather than trying to remove it if it's too dark.
If you’re worried about the dark shadow looking too harsh, use one that has a slightly shimmery finish. It will reflect light, and your eyes won’t appear quite as dark.
If you don’t have a brush to apply the shadow, you can use the sponge-tip applicator that usually comes with eyeshadow to press the color onto your lid.
1-4. Blend the shadow up to the crease.
Once your shadow is on your lid, you'll need to blend it out to get rid of any harsh lines and create that smokey effect. Use a small, fluffy crease brush to blend the eyeshadow from the lid up into the crease using a circular, buffing motion.
Take your time blending the shadow into your crease. You don’t want any harsh lines or edges.
If you can’t diffuse enough color into the crease from your lid by blending with a bare brush, you can tap the crease brush against the shadow to pick up some additional product. Just be sure to tap off any excess so you don’t apply too much.
1-5. Highlight the brow bone and inner corner.
Once you’ve finished blending the dark shadow across your eye, you want to use a light colored shadow to brighten up under your brow bone and the inner corner of your eye near the tear duct. Depending on your skin tone, apply an ivory, cream, or beige shade with a small brush to those areas.
While you can use any light shade that you like to highlight, it’s best to choose a shadow that doesn’t have too much shimmer or glitter unless you use a metallic shadow for the lid. A matte shade is the best bet, but a satin or slight shimmer finish can also work well.
1-6. Curl your lashes and add mascara.
Because dark shadows can tend to make the eyes look smaller, you want to open them up as much as possible. Start by using an eyelash curler to curl and lift your lashes. Next, apply your favorite mascara to lengthen and thicken the look of your lashes so they can stand out against the dark eye makeup.
You may need more than one coat of mascara to get help your lashes stand out with the darker makeup. Make sure not to apply too much, though, or lashes may start to clump.
2. Applying a Dramatic Smokey Eye
2-1. Use an eye primer.
You always want your makeup to look fresh all day, but it’s especially important with dark eyeshadows that fade and crease more noticeably. Before you apply any shadows to your eyes, dab on an eye primer. It will form a barrier between the oils in your lid and the shadow, so it stays looking fresh. Primer can also help intensify the shadows that you layer over it.
If you don’t have a specific eye primer on hand, apply a little concealer or foundation to your eyelids before using any eyeshadows. Next, dust the lids with translucent powder to create a smooth base.
2-2. Use a light base shade over the entire lid.
To begin your smokey eye look, choose a light shade of powdered eyeshadow that flatters your skin tone, such as a white, ivory, cream, beige, or tan. Use a brush or a sponge-tip applicator to apply it over the entire eyelid, from your upper lashline to under your brow. Dab a little in the inner corner of your eyes as well.
It’s best to use a matte shadow as your base shade.
2-3. Press a medium dark shade over the base of your eyelid.
Start to add depth to your eye look by applying a medium dark tone to your eyelid with a flat shader brush or a sponge-tip applicator. Keep the shadow on the lid and crease area, so your brow bone remains brightened by the base shade.
You may want to apply multiple layers of the medium dark shade to get it to the depth and intensity that you prefer. The pigment should be darkest near your lashes and fade gradually in the crease so that it blends seamlessly with the lighter shade.
2-4. Apply the darkest shade to the outer corner and crease.
To really make your smokey eye look sultry and dramatic, you’ll want to work in an even darker shade. Use a pointed crease brush to work the shade into the outer corner of the eye. Start at the outer edge of the lash line and create a diagonal line toward the end of your brow. When you reach the crease, drag the brush inward to darken up that area. You’ll effectively create a “V” shape at the corner of your eye.
Make sure to blend the dark shadow well, so there are no harsh lines or edges. You may want to switch to a clean, fluffy brush after you’re done applying the shadow to soften it.
If the dark shadow isn’t as dark as you’d like, layer it until you build it up to the intensity that you prefer.
2-5. Line your upper lashline.
Use a creamy eyeliner pencil in black or another dark shade to add definition to your upper lashes, moving from the outer corner to the inner corner. The color should be at least as dark as your darkest shadow, if not darker. Smudge out the liner, and then press a powder shadow in a similar color to the liner over it with a small pencil brush to darken it up further.
You can use a brush or a cotton swab to smudge the liner. It’s best not to use your finger, though, because it can make the look seem a little messy. If you don’t have a brush or cotton swab, a sponge tip applicator can work.
2-6. Add liner to your lower lashline.
With the same pencil that you used on your upper lashline, line your lower lashes. Keep the liner as close to your lashline as possible, though. Next, use a brush or cotton swab to soften the line to give it a smokier look.
If you want a really sultry smokey eye, consider applying the dark eyeliner to your inside rim of your lower lash line, also known as the water line. Pull lightly on your lower lid to expose the area, and gently run the liner over it.
2-7. Apply mascara or false lashes.
Finish off your smokey eye by defining your lashes. Use an eyelash curler to curl your lashes, and apply several coats of your favorite black mascara. If you’ve used very dark shadows or just want a bolder look, though, you may want to Apply False Eyelashes to really add drama.
Don't forget to apply a little mascara to your lower lashes too.
3. Doing the Rest of Your Makeup
3-1. Apply your eye makeup first.
Many people start with their face makeup, and move onto the eyes later. However, when you apply eyeshadow, pigmented dust can fall onto your face. This is called fallout, and when you’re using really dark shadows, it can be difficult to get rid of the specks on your face without ruining your foundation and concealer. That’s why it’s best to do your eye makeup first and then apply your face products.
If you just prefer to do your face makeup first, apply a generous amount of loose translucent powder beneath your eyes before applying your shadow. The powder will catch any fallout, and you can just sweep it away with a brush when you’re finished with your eyes.
3-2. Keep the rest of your makeup subtle.
When you’re wearing a bold, smokey eye, it’s usually best to tone down the rest of your look. That means wearing a bright red lip or super shimmery blush with a dramatic black smokey eye isn’t always the best choice. Instead, opt for light, neutral shades, such as a nude lip color and a matte neutral blush, so your eyes are the star of your look.
Keep in mind that they are no rules in makeup. If you feel like wearing a bold red lip with your smokey eye, go for it. However, if you’re new to smokey eye looks, it’s best to start slow with a soft pink or nude lip.
3-3. Add color to your cheeks.
While you typically don’t want to go too bold with the rest of your makeup, it’s important to add some color to your face with a smokey eye. That’s because the dark eyeshadows can make you look pale and almost sickly. Apply a rosy or peachy blush to the apples of your cheeks and blend it back toward your hairline to liven up your skin.
If you’re not a fan of blush, swap it for your favorite bronzer. Dust it over the tops of your cheekbones to add warmth and color to your skin.
Tips
To remove excess eyeshadow, dab Vaseline onto a cotton bud and gently rub onto the messy spot. Then, use the other side on the bud to wipe away the Vaseline.
As with most makeup techniques, practice makes perfect. Keep practicing your smoky eye look until you feel more confident about your skills.
You can purchase eyeshadow palettes that are designed specifically to create smoky looks, so you’ll have all the shades that you need in one place.

2,092 | How to Apply Splints | 1. Makeshift Splints
1-1. Apply first aid to any wounds
Sanitize your hands and check for any cuts, scrapes, punctures, or other wounds. Then, clean the wound and bandage it. Make sure that the wound is completely clean and covered up before you apply any type of splint.
Apply firm pressure to any wounds to help stop the bleeding.
Call emergency services right away if the injured person continues to bleed profusely, even if you aren’t close to a hospital. The sooner medical help arrives, the better.
1-2. Look around for something rigid, like a stick or board.
Search for something that’s both sturdy and big enough to support the injured body part, like a rolled-up section of a newspaper. Items like rolled-up clothes and blankets can work if you’re in a pinch.
Walking sticks and trekking poles are both great options.
For smaller injuries, like a finger fracture, you can use the neighboring finger as a “sturdy object.”
If the elbow or shoulder is injured, tuck the person’s arm close to their body and wrap the whole torso, immobilizing the limb against the body. For these injuries, it’s better to make a soft splint like a sling rather than making a rigid splint. This treatment also works well for wrist or forearm injuries.
1-3. Splint the injured body part without adjusting it.
It can be concerning to find a bent or misaligned limb, but never try to straighten or realign the injury on your own. Any type of adjustment could risk making the injury even worse. Instead, treat and splint the injury in the exact position you find it in.
1-4. Plan to splint around the neighboring joints.
The goal of a makeshift splint is to keep the injury stable and immobile. Let’s say that someone injured their lower leg on a hike—to best support the injury, you’d splint the ankle and knee as well as the leg. Here are a few best practices for other types of injuries:
Splint from foot to mid-calf
Splint from mid-palm to mid-forearm
Splint from the injured fingers to the wrist
Splint from the hand to the elbow
1-5. Pad the area between the injured limb and the splint.
Gently surround the injury with some sort of soft material, like a shirt or jacket—this will act as a cushion between the injury and the splint itself. Be sure to place plenty of padding around any bony and swollen parts of the injury, especially.
Make sure that the padding is snug around the injury without cutting off circulation.
1-6. Apply the splint to one side of the injury.
Take the rigid item that you grabbed earlier and gently place it along the injured body part. Whenever possible, line the splint along the uninjured side of the limb.
For example, you could brace a leg injury by placing a long, rigid walking stick beneath the person’s leg (under the knee).
You could brace an injured forearm by placing the rigid item beneath the arm (in line with the palm).
1-7. Tie the splint to keep it in place.
Anything thin and flexible can work for this, like a belt, necktie, or section of tape. Arrange these along the top and bottom of the splint (near the joints), so you aren’t putting any pressure on the injury itself.
Tie your splint securely, but make sure that it isn’t too tight. A really tight splint could prevent circulation.
1-8. Make a hand splint
Treating hand injuries requires a different splinting process. Set a soft object (like a rolled-up sock) or a cloth ball under the injured person’s hand so their fingers are resting on top of the soft item. Then, stick strips of clean cloth in between the injured fingers to act as padding. Wrap a clean piece of cloth all the way around the injured hand, followed by a second layer of cloth to help hold everything in place.
You can use adhesive tape instead of cloth for the second layer of your splint.
Wrap 4 strips of cloth or tape between the gaps of the fingers before you wrap the second layer of cloth around the injury. This helps keep them separated.
Make sure the person’s fingertips are completely exposed and uncovered by the splint. This way, you can test their circulation easily.
1-9. Check the injury frequently to make sure it isn’t getting worse.
Once your splint is in place, inspect the injury once every couple of minutes to see if it looks more swollen or pale than it did before. If so, loosen the bindings around the makeshift splint a little bit.
Check the patient’s pulse to make sure they have enough circulation around their injury. If their pulse feels faint, loosen the splint ties a little bit.
Check in with the injured individual, too. Ask them if their injury feels numb at all—if it does, loosen up the ties.
Watch for any warning signs of shock, like short, quick breathing. If the person’s injuries allow it, lay them down with their legs elevated and their head a little lower than their chest.
1-10. Take the injured individual to a hospital ASAP.
Splints are an invaluable resource when you’re stuck in the middle of nowhere, but they aren’t a replacement for a professional medical diagnosis and treatment. Take the injured individual to a hospital as soon as possible to prevent any complications.
2. Medical Splints
2-1. Treat any immediate injuries.
Wash your hands and clean out any scrapes, cuts, punctures, or other wounds surrounding the injured body part. Bandage and dress these wounds completely before you start applying the splint.
If you’re creating a splint for an open fracture (where the bone is sticking out of the skin), gently place a saline-moistened piece of sterile gauze on top of the injury.
2-2. Choose the best splint for the injury.
Different types of splints yield better results, depending on which body part is hurt. Here are a few different types of splints you might consider:
Best for upper forearm injuries
Best for wrist, forearm, and metacarpal proximal phalanx injuries
Best for elbow and upper arm injuries (needs to be used with a sling)
Best for thumb or scaphoid injuries
Best for lower femur or upper tibia/fibula injuries
Best for lower tibia/fibula, foot, or ankle injuries
Best for ankle injuries (even if the injury only affects the soft tissue)
2-3. Protect the patient’s clothing before applying the splint.
If time permits, drape a sheet or gown on top of the patient before you do anything else. This helps protect their skin and clothing from the water and plaster you’ll use to make the splint.
2-4. Apply a stockinette to protect the patient’s skin.
Grab a section of stockinette that’s at least 10 cm (3.9 in) longer than the splint and slide it on top of the injured body part (wherever the splint will go). Once the splint is complete, you’ll fold the extra stockinette fabric over the edges to create a smooth finish.
A stockinette is a thin layer of fabric that creates a barrier between the patient’s skin and the splinting.
2-5. Measure and cut your splinting material.
Hold the splinting material next to the injured body part and mark off a section that’s long enough to cover the surrounding joints. Then, measure around the injury—the splint needs to be wide enough to cover about half of the circumference of the injured body part. Cut the splinting material down to size once you’ve collected your measurements.
Finger splints are typically 2 in (5.1 cm) wide, arm splints are usually 3 to 4 in (7.6 to 10.2 cm) wide, and leg splints are traditionally 5 to 6 in (13 to 15 cm) wide.
Plaster splinting material usually comes in prefabricated splint rolls, with each roll having about 10-20 plaster sheets in it. Plaster of Paris is another popular type of splinting plaster—it usually comes in rolls or strips.
Make your measurement slightly longer if you’re working with Plaster of Paris strips or rolls, since this material often shrinks a little when the splint sets.
2-6. Choose a splint thickness that best suits the patient’s injury.
About 8-10 layers of plaster will get the job done if you’re splinting an arm, wrist, or shoulder injury, while leg and ankle splints typically need 12-14 layers.
2-7. Wrap Webril padding around the limb on top of the stockinette.
Grab a roll of Webril splint padding and carefully loop it around the stockinette. Divide the total number of plaster layers you’ll be using by 2—this is how many wrap-arounds of padding you’ll need for the splint.
If you plan on splinting an arm with 10 layers of plaster, only use 5 layers of padding.
If you plan on splinting a leg injury with 13 layers of plaster, just use 6-7 layers of padding.
2-8. Double-check the injury to make sure it’s positioned correctly.
Make sure that the body part is in a completely immobile position where it can heal properly.
Make sure that the forearm is vertically upright.
Place the wrist in a completely neutral position with the thumb pointed out.
Arrange the wrist in a neutral position with all 5 fingers slightly bent.
Lay the patient face-down and bend their arm around the side of the bed/stretcher at a right angle.
Sit the patient upright and have them bend their knee at a right angle. Make sure that the connected foot also creates a right angle with their leg.
2-9. Soak your splint material in water and squeeze it out.
Dip the plaster in a basin of clean, room temperature water—or, water that's around 24 °C (75 °F). Then, carefully squeeze out any leftover water from the soaked plaster so it’s not dripping wet.
It also helps to smooth out the damp plaster on a flat surface to get rid of any wrinkles or grooves. It should have a really sloppy texture at this point.
Never use hot water to apply a splint. Wetting the plaster generates heat—when combined with hot water (especially water that’s at least 40 °C/104 °F), the patient might get burned.
2-10. Apply and mold the splinting material to the injury.
Start by shaping the splint around the joints of the injury. Continue to mold the plaster around the injury while the plaster is still a sloppy consistency.
Give the patient a head’s up before you start molding the splint, since the process can be a bit painful.
2-11. Cover the wet splint with Webril and an elastic bandage so it holds its shape.
Grab a section of Webril padding and carefully wrap it around the wet plaster. Then, loop an elastic bandage on top—this helps the splint stay put.
If you don’t put a layer of padding down first, the bandage might meld with the plaster as it sets. This will make it really difficult to remove later on.
2-12. Fold back the edges of the stockinette and padding.
Maneuver the layers so they bend over the edges of the splint. This helps it look and feel smooth all around.
2-13. Keep the injured body part steady and let the splint dry.
Remind the patient to keep the injured body part in the right position so the splint sets correctly. Depending on the plaster you used, it may take 2-8 minutes for the splint to set.
Plaster labeled as “fast-drying” takes about 5-8 minutes to set, while “extra-fast-drying” plaster only takes 2-4 minutes.
Tips
Use plenty of padding whenever you’re creating a makeshift splint. This helps take some pressure off of the injury.[41]

2,093 | How to Apply Stage Makeup | 1. Applying Primer, Foundation, Powder, and Blush
1-1. Wash your face thoroughly and apply a good moisturizer.
Clean and moisturized skin provides a smooth base for your makeup and helps it last longer during a performance. Wash your face thoroughly, then pat your skin dry with a soft towel. Apply a good moisturizer all over your face and neck, followed by a light, colorless balm on your lips.
For dry skin, try an exfoliating cleanser to smooth out flaky areas.
If you have oily skin, use an alcohol-free toner after you wash, then apply moisturizer.
Before you put on your foundation put a makeup primer on your face. Primer will make it easier to put on your foundation. You can use any primer that you want or the Cooling Water Milk Stick by Milk Makeup. The Cooling Water Milk Stick will moisturize your face if you have dry skin.
1-2. Apply an oil-free foundation.
Use a sponge or brush to apply foundation to your entire face. Choose a shade that matches your skin tone or, if you’re very pale, you may want to go one shade darker. Use makeup with a warm, yellowish undertone, since stage lights tend to be cool in tone. Blend well around your hairline, temples and jaw so that everything looks even.
Oil-free foundation will keep your skin looking matte onstage.
You have the option of using a foundation stick. Foundation sticks make applying foundation easier. After applying the foundation stick use a sponge or brush to blend it in. Be sure to blend your foundation into your neck so you don't look like you're wearing a mask.
Contrary to popular belief, you don’t need to slather on the foundation. Apply just enough to even out your skin tone.
Opt for waterproof cream foundations, which do well under stage lights. You can also use a cake makeup, which is formulated for the stage.
Try to avoid creamy formulas, since they don’t have a lot of staying power. These can fade fast, leaving you with dark lip liner and pale lips.
1-3. Set your makeup with a dusting of translucent powder.
Use a fluffy kabuki brush for this, which will give you an even dusting. Dip the brush into the container of powder, then tap it on the edge of the sink or counter to get rid of the excess. Apply one layer of the powder all over your face and neck. This will “set” your makeup, and help it stay in place during your performance. Translucent powder is optional. You can use whatever type of powder that you want. Then blend your powder into your neck.
1-4. Emphasize your cheekbones with blush.
Apply blush from the middle of your cheeks (just outside the center of your eyes) to your ears with a fluffy brush. Aim for the area just below your cheekbone, which is the “hollow” of your cheek. This contours your cheekbones and makes them stand out onstage. Blend the blush in well.
Use concealer after applying your foundation. Blend the concealer in with a concealer brush. The concealer will hide the dark circles under your eyes.
Apply powder with a powder blush after you put on your concealer and foundation. Then blend the powder into your neck.
In general, women should go with a peach, peachy pink, pink, or rosy shade. For men, go with a shade or two lighter than that.
If you're concerned about your blush running under the stage lights, use a cream formula.
2. Accentuating Your Eyes
2-1. Apply a light eyeshadow color on your lids and under your brows.
Select a neutral eyeshadow that is 1-2 shades paler than your skin tone. Use an eyeshadow brush to apply the palest color just beneath your eyebrows. You can use the same color on your lids, or you can use an eyeshadow that is one shade darker. Blend both areas well.
Cream formulas work well for eye makeup, especially under hot stage lights.
2-2. Apply a dark neutral color into the crease of your eye.
Use an eyeshadow brush to apply a dark neutral color, like brown, to the area between the brow and lid, where the skin creases. Be sure to blend the eyeshadow well so there are no hard lines.
Depending on the performance, you may be asked to use a brighter color in the crease. If nothing is specified, a neutral brown shade works well.
2-3. Use brown or black or peach waterproof eyeliner on the upper lash line.
Pencil, Marker, and liquid liners all work, as long as they're waterproof. Start at the inner corner and draw a firm, thin line along your upper lash line to the outer edge of your eye. Don’t make the line too thick, unless your role calls for a dramatic look. Make sure the lines are even and both eyes match.
Brown, peach, black all work, but black liner will give you more definition. For a more natural look, men may want to go with brown.
Optionally, you can apply a white eyeliner pencil to your lower waterline, which makes the eyes look brighter and whiter.
2-4. Apply waterproof and volume lengthening mascara to your upper and lower lashes.
Aim for 1-3 coats of mascara on the upper lashes and a single light coat on the bottom lashes. Put the wand at the base of your lashes, press lightly, then move it along the lashes to the tips.
You can use brown or clear or black mascara, but black provides more definition. Brown works best for men, since it defines the eyes without being too drastic.
Make sure you use waterproof mascara, or it could run once you start to sweat beneath the bright stage lights.
Optionally put on self adhesive fake eyelashes. Fake eyelashes will make your eyes wider. If you have a hard time putting on false eyelashes use a lash primer before you put your mascara on instead. Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler before hand. This will make it easier to apply the lash primer and mascara. This will give you the look of false eyelashes.
2-5. Optionally fill in your brows with a brown pencil if you want to.
For more dramatic roles, you may want to opt for black, but dark brown is a good neutral choice for everyone. Fill in any patchy areas so that your eyebrows appear firm and full. Use the pencil to enhance the natural arch of your brow, which will help to frame your face.
3. Highlighting Your Mouth and Setting the Look
3-1. Add lipstick to your lips.
Lipstick will make your lips look fuller. You can use red, red orange, pink, or peachy pink lipstick.
Avoid doing a nude lip onstage, or your mouth will look non-existent.
You can add lip liner before you put on your lipstick if you want to.
Lip color requirements usually vary, depending on your role. Most men use a more natural shade. Check with your director if you’re unsure.
3-2. Fill in your lips with lipgloss.
Follow the natural shape of your lips and fill them in with a lipstick that matches your lip liner. Choose a natural color like light pink or peachy pink. Avoid colors like purple and orange.
If you're involved in a vigorous performance and worried about keeping your makeup in place, try misting your face with a setting spray before you apply the powder.
3-3. Step back from the mirror and look at yourself.
Your makeup should have an exaggerated look to combat the bright stage lighting. The audience will see you from different distances and angles. The people in the front will see you very clearly, so you want to look natural to them. The people who are in the nosebleeds must be able to see your expressions, so stage makeup will help you to accomplish this.
Tips
Make sure that your foundation, your concealer, and your powder match your skin tone. If it doesn't match your skin will turn orange or look too dark.
Bring makeup remover wipes after your performance. After your performance is over remove your makeup. Then as soon as you get home wash your face to remove any makeup that was left behind.
Keep your stage makeup and makeup remover wipes in a Caboodle. Caboodles can be purchased in the store or online.

2,094 | How to Apply Stage Makeup to Look Old | 1. Applying the Base Makeup
1-1. Choose a sallow-toned foundation.
For stage makeup, cream or pancake makeup works best. Select a shade that matches your skin tone, but look for an option with yellow or gray undertones. That will give your complexion a sallow look, which can help you appear older.
If you can’t tell whether a foundation has yellow or gray undertones, try holding it up against a white piece of paper or fabric to look for any yellow or gray tones. If you still can’t tell, ask a sales clerk at the store for help.
You can even use liquid latex or Elmer's glue to add texture and wrinkles.
1-2. Stipple the foundation onto your face.
Dip a brush or damp makeup sponge into the foundation, but instead of blending it over your face, use a stippling motion, which involves bouncing the brush or sponge over the skin to apply it. That will emphasize your skin’s pores and natural texture, so it appears rougher and older.
1-3. Blend a darker foundation where you want to create creases.
Choose a cream foundation that’s one to two shades darker than your skintone to create depth for the creases that you’ll create. Use a small brush to smooth the dark foundation over areas that you want to add wrinkles, such as your forehead, beside your eyes, or the creases from the sides of your nose to your mouth.
Keep your skin flat as you apply the darker foundation.
Use a clean finger to blend the edges of the foundation in well so the transition is seamless.
1-4. Set the foundation with powder.
Use a loose translucent powder to set the darker foundation in the areas that you’ve applied it. Press it lightly over the spots with a small powder brush to lock the makeup in place.
1-5. Smile and apply a lighter foundation over the dark base.
With the dark makeup set on your face, smile in an exaggerated fashion to create creases around your eyes, across your forehead, any anywhere else you applied the dark base. Use a small makeup sponge to pat a cream foundation that’s one to two shades lighter than the your skin tone over the dark foundation in the creases that form when you smile.
For the best results, be sure to use a clean sponge to pat on the makeup. Don’t rub it on either, or you won’t get the proper effect.
If you need the effect to be very dramatic for a performance in a large theater, use dark and light foundation shades that are more than a couple of shades darker or lighter than your skin tone.
1-6. Powder all over your face to set the makeup.
After you’ve applied the light foundation to highlight the creases and wrinkles, dust the same translucent powder you used to set the darker foundation over your entire face to lock all of the makeup in place. Don’t worry about applying too much powder; it will only give your face more texture so it appears rough and old.
2. Shading the Face
2-1. Shadow the arch of the nose and highlight the center.
The small indentation between your eyebrows at the top of your nose is known as the superciliary arch, and it tends to get darker as your age. Use a small shadow brush to dust a brown shadow over the arch, and dust a light highlight shade down the center of the nose to create the narrowing that usually occurs as you get older.
For shading and highlighting your face to appear older, always use matte powders. Shimmery shades won’t look natural.
Choose a brown powder for shading that has gray undertones to create the most natural look.
2-2. Contour beneath your cheekbones.
As you get older, you usually use volume in the face so your cheeks take on a sunken appearance. To mimic the look, use a small contour brush to apply the same brown powder you used on the arch of your nose beneath your cheekbones to make your face look more angular.
While you should blend out the edges of the contour line so it doesn’t just look like a stripe on your cheek, you should apply it more heavily than you would if you were contouring for every day. That will help it stand out when you’re on stage.
2-3. Add brown powder to the creases from your nose to your mouth.
As you age, the loss of volume in your face makes the creases that run from either side of the nose down to the mouth, or the nasolabial folds, become much more pronounced. Use a small fluffy brush to dust the brown contour powder through them so they look deeper.
As with the cheek contour, you should blend the edges of the nasolabial fold lines well but still leave the shading dark and pronounced.
You can make the nasolabial fold lines appear even deeper by using the matte highlight shade over the top lip and blending it out to the creases.
You may also want to add a little of the brown powder to the corners of your mouth, so it looks like it’s starting to droop.
2-4. Dust some contour powder across the center of the chin.
The chin is another area that usually gets more angular as you age. Mimic the look by using a small fluffy brush to dust the brown contour powder through the groove or crease in the center of your chin fold added shadow.
Applying a dusting of the light highlight shade to the bottom part of your chin can help make it look even more angular.
2-5. Use a brown powder beneath your eyes.
With a fluffy eyeshadow brush, apply some of the brown powder beneath your eyes. Start at the inner corner and blend the powder into the natural groove there. That will help your eyes appear more sunken, emphasize fine lines, and give you a more tired look.
While you can use the same matte brown contour powder that you used on the rest of the face, you may want to opt for a brown with reddish undertones beneath the eye. The skin around the eyes -- and the corners of the nose -- often gets red as you age so that can help you appear older.
3. Adding the Finishing Touches
3-1. Blend foundation over your lips.
To emphasize the cracks and dryness in your lips, it helps to add a little foundation over them. Dot a small amount of the foundation you use on your face on a clean finger and gently it pat it over your lips. Blot with a tissue afterward to ensure that your lips appear dry.
3-2. Brush gray shadow through your brows.
While a gray wig can help make you appear older, you’ll need to do some work on your eyebrows. Use an angled brow brush to apply a gray powder to your brows so the color appears faded. You can use a gray brow pencil or pomade if you prefer.
A white brow powder, pencil, or pomade can also work well.
If you don’t have a wig to wear, you can also brush some of the powder through your roots to make yourself appear older.
3-3. Black out your teeth.
Depending on the character that you’re playing, you may look more convincing as an older person if you fake one or more missing teeth. Use black tooth makeup wax to cover a couple of your front teeth so it appears that they’ve been lost due to old age.
Be sure to use a product designed for use on the tooth. Eyeliners and other makeup may stain your teeth and may not be safe for use in the mouth.
Tips
When you’re applying your makeup, you may want to have a photo of an older person without any makeup on to use as a reference.
Have somebody sit in the front row and the back row of theater for feedback on how realistic the makeup looks from different distances.
Design and practice your stage makeup look at least one week before your show opens, so you know if it works or you need to make some adjustments.
Warnings
Check the ingredients for anything you use on your face, and test a small amount on your jaw. You want to make sure that the colors work on your skin tone, and that you aren't allergic to any of the ingredients.

2,095 | How to Apply Steri Strips | 1. Preparing the Skin Around the Wound
1-1. Clean and dry 2 inches (5 cm) of skin around the wound.
You should remove any blood or dirt with rubbing alcohol or a cleanser like Phisoderm. Put the cleanser on a clean cotton ball and swab it across the area around the wound.
1-2. Dry the skin completely.
If your skin has any moisture in it, the adhesive might not work properly. Pat the area dry with a dry, clean towel or cloth.
1-3. Apply a tincture to increase adhesion.
A Benzoin tincture can help increase the adhesion between your skin and the Steri strip. Apply some tincture to a cotton swab and swab the area around the wound.
1-4. Visit your doctor if your wound is deep or very dirty.
It's important that your wound be completely clean before you cover it with steri strips. Otherwise, you may develop an infection under the steri strips that can continue to worsen. See your doctor if your wound is deep or hard to clean so that it will heal correctly.
2. Placing the Strips
2-1. Take the strips off the card.
You should pull each strip up off the card by placing your index finger under the end and pulling up. You can pull them off one at a time or three at once by using your index, middle, and ring fingers under the edges of three strips.
2-2. Hold the skin on either side of the wound closed.
Place the index finger of your hand that's not holding the Steri strips on one side of the wound. Then place the thumb of the same hand on the other side of the wound and press together.
2-3. Start at the middle of the wound.
Applying the first strip at the middle of wound ensures that the wound closes evenly. Then you can apply the rest of the strips out from the original one in the middle. It doesn’t matter if you move to the right or left (or top or bottom) first.
2-4. Press the strips down.
While holding the wound closed, place one end of the strip above the wound. Press down as you lay the strip over the wound and secure the other end under the wound. There should be an even amount of strip above and below the wound.
2-5. Place successive strips parallel to each other.
How many strips you need will depend on the size of the wound. There should be an 1/8th of an inch (1/3rd of a cm) between each strip and they should all be applied the same way. Apply enough strips so that the wound is closed all the way across.
2-6. Place strips parallel to the wound across the edges of the original strips.
The strips that are placed parallel to the wound will prevent the ends of the original strips from lifting. This ensures that your wound has time to heal before the strips start come up. Place the strips ½ inch (1 cm) from original strip ends.
3. Caring for the Strips
3-1. Keep the strips on for 3 to 5 days for head wounds.
Most head wounds heal more quickly than other areas of the body. Check the strips every day to make sure the ends aren’t coming up. If they are, apply another strip parallel to the wound to keep the ends down.
3-2. Keep the strips on for 10 to 14 days for cuts over joints.
Wounds over joints are the most likely to heal slowly because the movement of joints continually open the wound. Leave the strips on for 10 to 14 days.
3-3. Leave the strips on for 5 to 10 days for other wounds.
If your wound is not on your head or over a joint, you should leave the strips on for 5 to 10 days. As your wound heals, it will turn a light pink color. Check for that color before you remove the strips.
If you notice that your skin is red or painful, it may be infected. Remove the steri strips to check for an infection. If you think your wound is infected, visit your doctor to make sure you get proper treatment so your wound can heal.
3-4. Keep the wound dry until the strips are removed.
If you get the strips wet at all, they can come off. Keep the wound dry for the period the strips should stay on. You can shower as long as you can keep the wound out of the water.
If you can’t keep the wound out of the water, you’ll need to take sponge baths until the wound heals.
3-5. Remove the strips by moistening them with warm water.
By the end of the period your strips should be on, they’ll probably be easy to gently peel off. If they resist coming over, dip a cloth in warm water and hold it over the strips for 5 to 10 minutes. Once you remove the cloth, the strips should pull off. If they don’t, moisten them again.
Warnings
Don’t apply Steri strips to deep wounds or wounds that have dirt in them that you can’t remove. For those types of wounds, see a doctor.
Don’t yank off Steri strips. The adhesive in them is strong and they can tear your skin.

There should be an 1/8th of an inch (1/3rd of a cm) between each strip and they should all be applied the same way. Apply enough strips so that the wound is closed all the way across.\\n2-6. Place strips parallel to the wound across the edges of the original strips.\\nThe strips that are placed parallel to the wound will prevent the ends of the original strips from lifting. This ensures that your wound has time to heal before the strips start come up. Place the strips ½ inch (1 cm) from original strip ends.\\n3. Caring for the Strips\\n3-1. Keep the strips on for 3 to 5 days for head wounds.\\nMost head wounds heal more quickly than other areas of the body. Check the strips every day to make sure the ends aren’t coming up. If they are, apply another strip parallel to the wound to keep the ends down.\\n3-2. Keep the strips on for 10 to 14 days for cuts over joints.\\nWounds over joints are the most likely to heal slowly because the movement of joints continually open the wound. Leave the strips on for 10 to 14 days.\\n3-3. Leave the strips on for 5 to 10 days for other wounds.\\nIf your wound is not on your head or over a joint, you should leave the strips on for 5 to 10 days. As your wound heals, it will turn a light pink color. Check for that color before you remove the strips.\\nIf you notice that your skin is red or painful, it may be infected. Remove the steri strips to check for an infection. If you think your wound is infected, visit your doctor to make sure you get proper treatment so your wound can heal.\\n3-4. Keep the wound dry until the strips are removed.\\nIf you get the strips wet at all, they can come off. Keep the wound dry for the period the strips should stay on. You can shower as long as you can keep the wound out of the water.\\nIf you can’t keep the wound out of the water, you’ll need to take sponge baths until the wound heals.\\n3-5. Remove the strips by moistening them with warm water.\\nBy the end of the period your strips should be on, they’ll probably be easy to gently peel off. If they resist coming over, dip a cloth in warm water and hold it over the strips for 5 to 10 minutes. Once you remove the cloth, the strips should pull off. If they don’t, moisten them again.\\nWarnings\\nDon’t apply Steri strips to deep wounds or wounds that have dirt in them that you can’t remove. For those types of wounds, see a doctor.\\nDon’t yank off Steri strips. The adhesive in them is strong and they can tear your skin.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Steri strips are adhesive strips that are used to keep small or shallow wounds closed so they can heal. Before you apply Steri strips to your wound, you’ll have to make sure the skin around it is clean and dry, as covering a dirty wound increases your risk of infection. Similarly, a wound from a dirty source, like farm equipment, needs to be left uncovered to heal from the inside out.

2,096 | How to Apply Stick Deodorant | 1. Getting Ready
1-1. Choose a stick deodorant.
Go shopping and decide which brand of stick deodorant and which fragrance is best for you. There are many different types to choose from, including scented, unscented, men’s, women’s, gel-based, powder-based, natural, and more.
Read the label to make sure you are not allergic to any ingredients.
1-2. Wash your armpits.
Before applying the stick deodorant, either take a shower or wash your armpits thoroughly to freshen up. Dry with a towel so that the deodorant will roll onto your skin smoothly without smearing.
1-3. Wait to get dressed.
Deodorant is known to streak on clothes, therefore, it is better to roll the deodorant under your armpit and then wait as long as possible to get dressed. If you put it on right before putting your shirt on, you’re much more likely to get white marks on your clothing.
As an alternative, you can put on your deodorant after you’ve already gotten dressed.
2. Applying Stick Deodorant
2-1. Unwind or pull off the deodorant cap.
As with most cosmetic products, deodorant containers come with a tight cap that requires you to unwind it or pull it off.
2-2. Remove the plastic casing.
There is often a special seal located under the cap and firmly on top of the deodorant stick that needs to be removed before use.
The actual deodorant stick is made from alcohol, which needs to remain moist. A tight plastic casing keeps the stick moist and avoids evaporation.
2-3. Twist the applicator wheel 2-3 clicks.
Once the lid is off, turn the wheel on the bottom of the deodorant stick 2 or 3 times to ensure that you have enough deodorant exposed at the top. This will help ensure full coverage.
2-4. Apply deodorant in an even coat to the underarm region.
Apply the deodorant slowly and thoroughly. Start at the center of your armpit and work your way outward in all directions until your underarm is completely covered. Reapply throughout the day as needed.
Make it easy on yourself by using the opposite hand to apply the deodorant to each of your armpits.
2-5. Replace the cap and put the deodorant away.
Otherwise, the stick will dry up without the cap on and you will no longer be able to use it. Keep your deodorant somewhere that’s easy to access each day, such as inside the cabinet that’s under your bathroom sink.
Tips
If you have especially hairy armpits, stick deodorant may not be as effective. Try using a spray instead.
Try not to overuse deodorant, many people do not like a heavy fragrance radiating from other people. If possible, buy antiperspirant if you plan on working out.
Similar to other personal care products, your body can build resistance to deodorant making it less effective. Therefore, make sure you switch brands frequently.
Warnings
If you experience discomfort or get a rash, stop using the deodorant and see a dermatologist.

2,097 | How to Apply Stick Foundation | 1. Choosing a Foundation
1-1. Find a foundation that matches your complexion.
Your complexion is the shade of your skin and can change from sun exposure or skin conditions. You always want to try a foundation on to make sure it matches your complexion. Standing in natural light, swipe potential foundations across your cheek or near your jawline. The right foundation will disappear, blending perfectly with your skin.
If you can't find a foundation that matches, try choosing the shades that are closest (one slightly darker, one slightly lighter), and mixing them to make a perfect match.
You can also buy the lighter foundation and add a bronzing powder later to warm it up.
1-2. Find a foundation that matches your skin tone.
Just as important as matching your complexion, your foundation needs to work with the undertones of your skin. Generally categorized as warm, neutral, or cool, your skin undertone always remains the same (unlike your complexion, which can change with exposure to the sun). Buying a foundation for the wrong undertone will make your foundation look off, even if it perfectly matches your complexion.
Find your undertone by looking at the veins on your inner wrist. If they are green, your undertones are warm (yellow). If they are purple or blue, your undertones are cool (blue or pink). If you can't tell if the veins are purple or green, your undertone is neutral (a mix of yellow, gold, pink, or blue).
Look for foundations that are specifically made for your undertone and labeled for a warm, cool, or neutral skin tone.
If the foundation brand doesn't mention undertone, try to find one that matches your undertone. Look for yellow or gold for warm; pink, red or blue for cool; neutrals can experiment with foundations with undertones from both ends of the cool/warm spectrum.
1-3. Figure out your skin type.
Your type of skin can influence which foundation is right for you. Stick foundations may be made for all skin types (check the labeling), but for the most part they're best for oily or combination skin. If you don't know whether your skin is dry, oily, normal, or combination, wash your face with a gentle cleanser and notice how your skin feels after 15-20 minutes.
If your face feels moist or oily, your skin is oily.
If your skin feels tight, tingly, or dry, you have dry skin.
If your skin feels soft and clean, you have normal skin.
If your skin feels oily in your T-zone (your forehead and nose), then you have combination skin.
2. Prepping Your Face
2-1. Start with a clean face.
Before applying makeup it is especially important to wash your face with a gentle cleanser formulated for your skin type. Removing dirt and oil from your face will help keep your pores clear and lessen the likelihood of blackheads.
Make sure your hands are washed and cleaned as well, as you will be touching your face quite a lot and you don't want to transfer dirt or bacteria.
2-2. Use a lightweight moisturizer on your face and neck.
The moisturizer will keep the foundation from drying out your skin. A little moisturizer can also make it easier for you to spread the foundation over your skin since the stick is solid and more difficult to smooth evenly over your face than liquid foundations.
Avoid moisturizers that are too rich. A day cream or heavy moisturizer that makes your skin oily can cause your foundation to oxidize and turn darker or even orange.
2-3. Apply a primer to shrink pores, smooth over fine lines, and make your foundation last longer.
Primer is an optional step, but most beauty experts think it's worth it. The primer gives the foundation something to cling to so it will stay put all day. Plus, it smooths your skin so your foundation won't settle into wrinkles or dry spots.
Choose a foundation that is right for your skin type (oily, normal, dry).
Use primer if you live in a humid climate or plan to visit one. The primer will keep your makeup from smudging and "melting" off your face.
Some foundation sticks come with primer already added.
3. Applying Foundation
3-1. Twist the tube so that the foundation just barely sticks up over the edge.
You don't want the foundation stick to come out as far as a lipstick would. The farther out you twist the foundation, the easier it will be for it to snap off or break during application.
If you are worried about bacteria on the end of the foundation stick, wipe the top with a cotton pad dipped in alcohol or a makeup cleansing wipe.
3-2. Swipe or dot the foundation on your face.
Swipe it once across your forehead, on the bridge of your nose, under both eyes, your chin, and cheeks. You may want to add a little near your jawline as well so you can blend the foundation down to your neck.
The foundation is not meant to be a mask--it is supposed to even out your complexion. Applying the foundation to these specific spots will give you enough product to cover your face and still look natural.
Dotting the foundation, as opposed to swiping, will put less product on your face and give you a lighter layer. If you're not sure how much foundation you need, try dotting it on first. It's easier to add more later than to take it off.
If you don't want to put the foundation directly on your face, you can use your fingertips to apply it to your skin. The heat from your fingers will warm up the foundation and may make it even easier to apply.
Try not to apply foundation with a makeup sponge, as this absorbs a lot of foundation and is a waste of product.
3-3. Blend the foundation using clean fingertips.
You don't want to rub the foundation into your skin as you blend, rather, you want to sweep and pat the makeup. The center of your face usually has the most discoloration, so make sure you have ample coverage there. Always blend the foundation outward, toward the edges of your face.
Blend, blend, then blend some more. This step is key to getting a natural-looking application of foundation. Check your hairline and neck to make sure you don't have an obvious line where your makeup ends.
Use your ring fingers to blend the foundation--it is the weakest finger and will ensure you don't pull on your skin too much.
You can use a makeup sponge or brush to help blend your makeup if you would prefer not to use your fingers.
If you have any blemishes or dark circles under your eyes and want a little more coverage, simply dab a little more foundation in these areas and blend gently.
3-4. Set your foundation with powder and apply the rest of your makeup.
Some foundation sticks are mattes, which should stay in place on their own. Otherwise, a dusting of translucent powder will set the foundation and absorb excess oil, which can cause your foundation to oxidize and turn dark or orange.

2,098 | How to Apply Strip Lashes | 1. Fitting and Prepping the Lashes
1-1. Hold the strip lash up to your eyelid to see if it's the right size.
Before you apply any eyelash strip adhesive, check to see that the strip lash is the right size for your eyes. Hold the lash strip up to your upper eyelid and place it against your lash line so it's right on the edge of your eyelid. The whole strip lash should fit on your eyelid and match up with your natural lash line.
For example, if the lash strip is longer than your natural lash line, then it's too long.
1-2. Trim the strip
Use a sharp pair of small scissors to cut across the strip. Trim it down to the desired size for your eyelid. Cut straight across the strip at a perpendicular angle going from the outside to the inside of the lash strip. This is important so that you don't cut off part of the remaining lashes.
1-3. Wrap a new lash strip around your finger to soften the spine.
If the lash strips you're applying are brand new, soften them up to improve the fit. Place 1 of the lash strips on your index finger between the knuckle and fingernail. Press the strip around your finger and hold it there for about 10 seconds to shape and soften the strip.
Repeat for the second lash.
1-4. Remove the old adhesive from the strip if you've worn it before.
Look at the lash to see if there is any old adhesive stuck to it. Grasp the adhesive with your fingers and pull it away from the strip. It may come off in 1 piece or you may need to pull off multiple small pieces of leftover adhesive.
Repeat for the other lash.
2. Securing Strip Lashes
2-1. Do your eye makeup before you apply the lashes.
You won't be able to apply eyeliner or eyeshadow as easily after you have the lashes on, so do your eye makeup before you start applying the strip lashes. You can wear eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, or a combination of these with strip lashes.
Apply a coat of mascara to your natural lashes before you apply the strip lashes. This will make the look more cohesive, as the mascara helps your natural lashes blend with the strip lashes.
2-2. Apply eyelash glue along the edge of the strip and wait 30 seconds.
Squeeze the eyelash adhesive tube to dispense a dot of glue at the tip. Then, rub the edge of the strip along the tip of the dot at the end of the adhesive tube. Distribute the glue evenly along the strip. Then, wait 30 seconds to allow the glue to get a little tacky before applying the lash strip.
Be careful not to get the adhesive on the lashes.
Do not blow on the lash strip after you apply the glue! This will introduce bacteria and it may cause the lash strip adhesive to dry too quickly.
2-3. Press the strip against your eyelid right along your lash line.
Once the glue is distributed evenly along the strip, position the strip on your eyelid right along your lash line. Make sure that the adhesive is facing down towards your eyelid. Use your fingers or a pair of tweezers to press the strip down gently along your lash line. Make sure to keep your eyes open while you're doing this!
You can also use tweezers or a cotton swab to press the lashes against your natural lashes. Just be careful not to poke yourself in the eye!
2-4. Repeat to attach the other strip.
Once the first strip is secured to your lash line, repeat the same process to attach the other strip lash. Position the second strip lash in the same way as the first lash. Compare the positioning of the 2 lashes by looking in a mirror to ensure that they're symmetrical.
Wait 5 minutes after applying the second lash if you want to touch up your makeup or apply mascara to the lashes. An extra coat of mascara and some black eyeliner along your lash line will help to hide the edge of the strip.
3. Removing and Storing Strip Lashes
3-1. Apply false eyelash remover along your lashline.
This will help soften the glue on your false eyelashes and make the removal process more gentle on your eyes. First, apply eyelash remover or micellar water to a cotton swab. Then, run the cotton swab along your lashline to apply the remover.
3-2. Grasp the false lashes near the outer corner with a pair of tweezers.
When you're ready to remove your strip lashes, grasp the lashes (not the strip) with a pair of tweezers. Aim to grasp the lashes about halfway down their length near the outer edge of your eyelid.
Be careful not to grasp any of your natural lashes with the tweezers.
3-3. Pull gently up and towards your inner eye.
While squeezing the tweezers, pull the lash strip up slowly and continue pulling in towards your inner eye. Don't rip the lash off quickly or you may damage it.
If pulling on the lash strip is difficult or feels painful, stop and apply a small amount of makeup remover or water to a cotton ball. Dab the lash strip with the cotton ball to help loosen it, and then try pulling up the strip again.
3-4. Store the lashes
After you have removed the lashes, place them into the box that they came in. Place the lash strips onto the curved forms in the box to help the lashes keep their curved shape. Close the lid to keep dust and dirt off of them, and place the box somewhere cool and dry, such as a drawer or cabinet where you store your makeup.
If you take good care of your lashes, you can wear them 20 times or more, so always store them properly.

2,099 | How to Apply Subtle Daytime Makeup | 1. Performing a Morning Skin Routine
1-1. Wash your face.
For the health of your skin and the sake of longer lasting makeup, start each morning by washing your face. Be sure to use a gentle cream or gel cleanser designed for the face.
Massage the cleanser into your skin for about 30 seconds, using a circular motion, and rinse well using lukewarm water. Gently pat your face dry with a soft towel to remove most, but not all, of the moisture.
1-2. Moisturize your skin.
To give your makeup a soft, smooth surface over which to be applied, make sure your face is moisturized. You can use toners, serums, eye creams, or just a basic moisturizing facial lotion. Be sure to apply it when your skin is still slightly damp.
To prevent dryness, moisturize your face after every time you wash it.
1-3. Apply sunscreen.
This is especially important in the summer months, but you should actually wear sunscreen year-round. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15, and apply it liberally to your face, neck, and ears.
Sunscreen and proper sun-protection habits will help protect your skin from skin cancer, freckles, wrinkles, and premature aging.
2. Applying Basic Daytime Makeup
2-1. Put on a thin base of primer.
Basic daytime makeup can be as simple and easy as applying a little foundation, concealer, and blush, or it can be as complicated as doing your eyes, lips, and brows as well. Primer isn't strictly necessary, but it will help make your cosmetics last longer if you plan to wear more than just basic daytime makeup.
The purpose of primer is to give your makeup something to stick to, fill in small wrinkles and creases, and control oil.
To apply primer, put a small amount onto your index finger and gently rub a thin layer all over your face.
2-2. Apply a foundation.
Use a lightweight foundation that matches your skin tone as closely as possible. Use your finger or a sponge to apply a thin layer all over your face. Foundation will help even out your skin tone, create a smooth surface, and cover discoloration, and because it serves such a similar purpose to primer, the primer isn't always necessary.
Go for a matte or oil-free finish if you have oily skin, try a moisturizing or cream foundation if you have dry skin, and opt for hypoallergenic and scent-free if your skin is sensitive.
You can also use your undertones to choose a foundation. Go for a reddish or bluish foundation if you have cool skin, a golden or yellowish foundation if your undertone is warm, and try ivory or praline foundation shades if you have neutral undertones.
2-3. Use a concealer.
Concealer is similar to foundation, but it’s even more capable of covering redness, flaws, and blemishes. Apply small amounts of concealer under your eyes and on all blemishes, and then use your fingers to delicately blend it in.
You can also use the concealer to provide some contouring to your face, by applying some down the bridge of the nose and above the eyebrows. Use your fingers to blend it in.
Use the same criteria to choose concealer that you used for foundation, and try to match the color of your concealer to the color of your foundation. If you want to brighten your under-eye area, you can try a concealer that’s up to two shades lighter than your skin tone.
2-4. Finish with a powder.
This is another optional step, but if you want to help set your foundation and concealer for the day, use a sponge or brush to apply a thin layer of loose or pressed powder on your face, especially areas that are prone to oiliness.
Loose powder will provide a lighter look, while pressed powder is heavier, and will provide more coverage, especially if your skin is oily.
For an even easier and more natural look, you can simply apply a thin layer of powder on your face instead of using foundation.
2-5. Add a pinch of blush.
Once you’ve prepared your face, you'll be ready to head out the door with a perfect complexion and smooth skin if that’s all you want to do. But if you want to add a bit of color to your cheeks and lips and highlight your eyes, you can do so by adding some basic cosmetics. With a brush, apply a small dab of blush along your cheek bones, then use the brush to blend the blush into your skin.
Try light pink, peach, or plum shade for fair skin.
Go for mauve, apricot, or berry for medium skin.
Give rose, bronze, or an orangey-peach a try if you have olive skin.
Try raisin, brick, or tangerine if you have dark skin.
2-6. Add some color to your lips.
You don’t necessarily have to choose natural glossy or sheer color for daytime makeup (but you certainly can), and if you want to go a little bolder, try a cream lipstick without the lip liner. After applying, use your finger to blend the lipstick.
To choose a lipstick color for daytime makeup, stick to something that’s a similar shade to your natural lip color, but with an extra bit of color and brightness. When in doubt, you can always opt for a soft pink shade.
2-7. Apply some mascara.
If you want to make your eyes pop a little as well, consider adding a bit of mascara to the top and bottom lashes. Starting with the top lashes, place the mascara want at the base of your lashes and move the wand back and forth as you work your way to the lash tips. While that coat is still wet, repeat the process, then do the same on the bottom lashes.
Try a black mascara to draw attention to your eyes, unless you have very pale skin, in which case you may want to try brown instead.
If you’re going to be applying eyeshadow and liner as well, hold off on the mascara until after you apply those two items.
3. Applying Subtle Eye Makeup
3-1. Prime your eyelids.
More eye makeup isn't necessary for daytime (or anytime), but if you do want to wear daytime eye makeup, applying a primer will help it last longer.
Apply a cream primer or flesh-colored eyeshadow to your entire eyelid, from the base of the eyelid right to the brow line.
3-2. Apply eyeshadow.
Apply a layer of light purple or brown eyeshadow to your eyelid from the inner corner to the center. Add depth to your eye by applying a medium brown eyeshadow to the crease of your eye and the outer bottom corner of the eyelid (not up toward the brow line). Use a clean brush to blend these colors together.
Apply a thin line of medium brown eyeshadow to the outer corner of your bottom lash line as well.
3-3. Add some eyeliner.
To add definition to your eyes, apply a thin line of your favourite brown eyeliner to the upper lash line. At the outer corners of your eyes, you can extend the liner out slightly toward your temple to make your eyes look larger.
Once your eyeshadow and liner are complete, you can add mascara to the top and bottom lash lines.
3-4. Define your eyebrows.
For daytime makeup, choose a thin brush to apply some eyeshadow to your eyebrows. Use a brush or eyebrow comb to work the color through. Try to find an eyeshadow that matches your natural hair color.
3-5. Finished.

Use your fingers to blend it in.\\nUse the same criteria to choose concealer that you used for foundation, and try to match the color of your concealer to the color of your foundation. If you want to brighten your under-eye area, you can try a concealer that’s up to two shades lighter than your skin tone.\\n2-4. Finish with a powder.\\nThis is another optional step, but if you want to help set your foundation and concealer for the day, use a sponge or brush to apply a thin layer of loose or pressed powder on your face, especially areas that are prone to oiliness.\\nLoose powder will provide a lighter look, while pressed powder is heavier, and will provide more coverage, especially if your skin is oily.\\nFor an even easier and more natural look, you can simply apply a thin layer of powder on your face instead of using foundation.\\n2-5. Add a pinch of blush.\\nOnce you’ve prepared your face, you'll be ready to head out the door with a perfect complexion and smooth skin if that’s all you want to do. But if you want to add a bit of color to your cheeks and lips and highlight your eyes, you can do so by adding some basic cosmetics. With a brush, apply a small dab of blush along your cheek bones, then use the brush to blend the blush into your skin.\\nTry light pink, peach, or plum shade for fair skin.\\nGo for mauve, apricot, or berry for medium skin.\\nGive rose, bronze, or an orangey-peach a try if you have olive skin.\\nTry raisin, brick, or tangerine if you have dark skin.\\n2-6. Add some color to your lips.\\nYou don’t necessarily have to choose natural glossy or sheer color for daytime makeup (but you certainly can), and if you want to go a little bolder, try a cream lipstick without the lip liner. After applying, use your finger to blend the lipstick.\\nTo choose a lipstick color for daytime makeup, stick to something that’s a similar shade to your natural lip color, but with an extra bit of color and brightness. When in doubt, you can always opt for a soft pink shade.\\n2-7. Apply some mascara.\\nIf you want to make your eyes pop a little as well, consider adding a bit of mascara to the top and bottom lashes. Starting with the top lashes, place the mascara want at the base of your lashes and move the wand back and forth as you work your way to the lash tips. While that coat is still wet, repeat the process, then do the same on the bottom lashes.\\nTry a black mascara to draw attention to your eyes, unless you have very pale skin, in which case you may want to try brown instead.\\nIf you’re going to be applying eyeshadow and liner as well, hold off on the mascara until after you apply those two items.\\n3. Applying Subtle Eye Makeup\\n3-1. Prime your eyelids.\\nMore eye makeup isn't necessary for daytime (or anytime), but if you do want to wear daytime eye makeup, applying a primer will help it last longer.\\nApply a cream primer or flesh-colored eyeshadow to your entire eyelid, from the base of the eyelid right to the brow line.\\n3-2. Apply eyeshadow.\\nApply a layer of light purple or brown eyeshadow to your eyelid from the inner corner to the center. Add depth to your eye by applying a medium brown eyeshadow to the crease of your eye and the outer bottom corner of the eyelid (not up toward the brow line). Use a clean brush to blend these colors together.\\nApply a thin line of medium brown eyeshadow to the outer corner of your bottom lash line as well.\\n3-3. Add some eyeliner.\\nTo add definition to your eyes, apply a thin line of your favourite brown eyeliner to the upper lash line. At the outer corners of your eyes, you can extend the liner out slightly toward your temple to make your eyes look larger.\\nOnce your eyeshadow and liner are complete, you can add mascara to the top and bottom lash lines.\\n3-4.

2,100 | How to Apply Sunscreen | 1. Choosing a Sunscreen
1-1. Look at the SPF number.
“SPF” refers to a sunscreen’s “sun protective factor,” or how effectively it blocks UVB rays. The SPF number reflects the amount of time it takes to sunburn wearing the sunscreen vs. not wearing the sunscreen.
For example, an SPF of 30 means that you can spend 30 times as long in the sun before burning compared to not wearing any sunscreen at all. So, if you would usually begin to burn after 5 minutes in the sun, an SPF of 30 would theoretically allow you to spend time outside for 150 minutes (30 x 5) before you burn. However, your unique skin, your activities, and the sun’s intensity all cause variation in how effective sunscreen is, so you may need to use more than other people.
The SPF number can be tricky, because its protection doesn’t increase proportionally. Thus, SPF 60 is not twice as good as SPF 30. SPF 15 blocks about 94% of UVB rays, SPF 30 blocks about 97%, and SPF 45 blocks about 98%. No sunscreen blocks 100% of UVB rays.
The American Academy of Dermatology recommends an SPF of 30 or higher. The difference between extremely high SPFs is often negligible and not worth the extra money.
If you're going swimming or sweating, go with a sunscreen that's SPF 50.
1-2. Choose a “broad-spectrum” sunscreen.
SPF refers only to the ability to block UVB rays, which cause sunburn. However, the sun also emits UVA rays. UVA rays cause skin damage, such as signs of aging, wrinkles and dark or light spots. Both increase your risk of skin cancer. A broad-spectrum sunscreen provides protection from both UVA and UVB rays.
Some sunscreens may not say “broad-spectrum” on the packaging. However, they should always state whether they protect against UVB and UVA rays.
Most broad-spectrum sunscreens contain “inorganic” components such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, as well as “organic” sunscreen components such as avobenzone, Cinoxate, oxybenzone, or octyl methoxycinnamate.
1-3. Look for a water-resistant sunscreen.
Because your body expels water through sweat, you should look for a water-resistant sunscreen. This is especially important if you are going to be very active, such as running or hiking, or if you’ll be in the water.
No sunscreen is “waterproof” or “sweat proof.” In the US, sunscreens cannot market themselves as “waterproof.”
Even with water-resistant sunscreen, reapply every 40-80 minutes or as directed on the label.
1-4. Decide what you like.
Some people prefer spray sunscreens, while others prefer thick creams or gels. Whatever you decide, make sure you apply a thick, even coating. The application is as important as the SPF and other factors: if you don’t apply it properly, the sunscreen won’t do its job.
Sprays may be best for hairy areas, while creams are usually best for dry skin. Alcohol or gel sunscreens are good for oily skin.
You can also purchase wax sunscreen sticks, which are good for applying near the eyes. This is often a good choice for children, as it avoids getting the sunscreen in the eyes. They also have the benefit of not spilling (such as in a purse) and can be applied without getting lotion on your hands.
Water resistant "sports type" sunscreens are often sticky, so they are not good choices for applying under makeup.
For acne-prone individual, take care in selecting your sunscreen. Look for those that are designed specifically for your face and will not clog pores. These often have higher SPF (15 or higher), and are less likely to clog pores or increase acne breakouts.
Many acne-prone individuals find that zinc oxide-based sunscreens tend to work best.
Look for "non-comedogenic", "will not clog pores", "for sensitive skin", or "for acne-prone skin" on the labels.
1-5. Go home and try a small portion around your wrist.
If you see any allergic reaction or skin problem, buy a different sunscreen. Repeat the process until you find the right sunscreen, or talk to your doctor about recommended brands if you have sensitive skin or allergies.
Itching, redness, burning, or blisters are all signs of an allergic reaction. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are less likely to cause allergic skin reactions.
2. Applying a Sunscreen
2-1. Check the expiration date.
The FDA requires sunscreen to retain its protective power for at least three years from the date of manufacture. However, you should always note expiration dates. If the date has passed, ditch the old bottle and buy some new sunscreen.
If your product doesn’t have an expiration date when you purchase it, use a permanent marker or a label to write the purchase date on the bottle. This way you’ll know how long you’ve had the product.
Obvious changes in the product, such as color changes, separation, or different consistency, are signs that the sunscreen has expired.
2-2. Apply before going out in the sun.
The chemicals in sunscreen take time to bind to your skin and become fully protective. Apply your sunscreen before you go out.
Sunscreen on the skin should be applied 30 minutes before you go out into the sun. Lip sunscreen should be applied 45-60 minutes before going into the sun.
Sunscreen needs to :"cure" on the skin to be fully effective. This is especially important in the water-resistance factor. If you put on sunscreen and jump into the pool 5 minutes later, much of your protection will be lost.
This is also very important for caring for children. Children are usually wriggly and impatient, and are usually doubly so when excited about an outdoor adventure; after all, who can stand still when the ocean is right there? Instead, try to sunscreen before leaving the house, or in the parking lot, or waiting for the bus.
2-3. Use enough.
One of the biggest mistakes in using sunscreen is to not use enough. Adults usually need about one ounce -- a palm-ful, or about a shot glass full -- of sunscreen to cover exposed skin.
To apply cream or gel sunscreen, squeeze a dollop into your palm. Spread it all over the skin that will be exposed to the sun. Rub the sunscreen into your skin until you can't see the white anymore.
To apply spray sunscreen, hold the bottle upright and move the bottle back and forth across your skin. Apply an even, generous coating. Make sure the wind doesn’t blow the sunscreen away before it contacts your skin. Don’t inhale spray sunscreen. Be careful when applying spray sunscreens around the face, especially around children.
2-4. Apply sunscreen to all skin.
Remember areas like your ears, neck, the tops of your feet and hands, and even the part in your hair. Any skin that will be exposed to sunlight should be covered with sunscreen.
It can be hard to fully cover hard-to-reach areas such as your back. Ask someone to help you apply sunscreen to these areas.
Thin clothing often doesn’t offer much sun protection. For example, a white t-shirt has an SPF of just 7. Wear clothing designed to block UV rays, or wear sunblock under your clothes.
2-5. Don’t forget your face.
Your face needs even more sunscreen than the rest of your body, as many skin cancers occur on the face, especially on or around the nose. Some cosmetics or lotions may contain sunscreen. However, if you’re going to be outside for more than 20 minutes (total, not at a time) you’ll want to apply a facial sunscreen too.
Many facial sunscreens come in cream or lotion form. If you use a spray sunscreen, spray it into your hands first, then apply it to your face. It's best to avoid spray sunscreens on the face if possible.
The Skin Cancer Foundation has a searchable list of recommended facial sunscreens.
Use a lip balm or lip sunscreen with an SPF of at least 15 on your lips.
If you are bald or have thin hair, remember to apply sunscreen to your head, too. You can also wear a hat to help protect against sun damage.
2-6. Reapply after 15-30 minutes.
Studies have shown that re-applying your sunscreen after about 15-30 minutes after going into the sun is more protective than waiting 2 hours.
Once you’ve done this initial reapplication, re-apply sunscreen every 2 hours or as directed on the label.
3. Staying Safe in the Sun
3-1. Stay in the shade.
Even when you’re wearing sunscreen, you’ll still be exposed to the sun’s powerful rays. Staying in the shade or using a sun umbrella will help protect you from sun damage.
Avoid “peak hours.” The sun is highest between 10AM and 2 PM. If you can, avoid sun exposure during this time. Seek shade if you’re out and about during this time.
3-2. Wear protective clothing.
Not all clothing is created equal. However, long-sleeved shirts and long pants can help protect your skin from sun damage. Wear a hat to offer your face extra shade and protect your scalp.
Look for tightly-woven fabric and dark colors, which offer the most protection. For people who are very active outdoors, there is special clothing with built-in sun-protection, available at specialty stores or online.
Remember those sunglasses! The sun’s UV rays can cause cataracts, so purchase a pair that block UVB and UVA rays.
3-3. Keep young children out of the sun.
Sun exposure, especially during the “peak” hours of 10 AM to 2 PM, is especially harmful to young children. Look for sunscreens specifically made for children and babies. Consult with your pediatrician to determine what is safe for your child.
Infants under the age of 6 months should not wear sunscreen or be exposed to direct sunlight. Young babies’ skin is not mature yet, so they may absorb more of the chemicals in sunscreen. If you must take young infants outside, keep them in the shade.
If your baby is older than 6 months, use a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30. Be careful when applying sunscreen near the eyes.
Dress young children in sun-protective clothing, such as hats, long-sleeved sun shirts or lightweight long pants.
Get your child sunglasses with UV protection.
Tips
Even if you apply sunscreen, do not overexpose yourself in the sun.
Buy a special sunscreen for your face. If you have oily skin or tend to get clogged pores, look for “oil-free” or “noncomedogenic” sunscreens. Special formulas are available for sensitive skin.
Reapply sunscreen after getting wet, every 2 hours, or as directed on the label. Sunscreen isn’t a “one and done” product.
Warnings
There is no such thing as a “safe” suntan. UV light from tanning beds and natural sunlight causes skin cancer. A golden tan may look great, but it isn’t worth your life. Consider alternatives such as a spray tan.

Consider alternatives such as a spray tan.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"You probably know that you need to apply sunscreen while you’re laying out on the beach. However, dermatologists recommend that you use a sunscreen any time you’re going to be outside for more than 20 minutes, even in the wintertime. You should wear sunscreen even when it’s shady or overcast. The sun’s UV (ultraviolet) rays can begin to cause skin damage in just 15 minutes! This damage can even lead to skin cancer. Preventing a sunburn is always preferable to treating a sunburn. The best way to do that is to apply sunscreen liberally any time you'll be outside during the day.\", \"结构\": {\"方法\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Choosing a Sunscreen\", \"步骤\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Look at the SPF number.\", \"描述\": \"“SPF” refers to a sunscreen’s “sun protective factor,” or how effectively it blocks UVB rays. The SPF number reflects the amount of time it takes to sunburn wearing the sunscreen vs. not wearing the sunscreen.\\nFor example, an SPF of 30 means that you can spend 30 times as long in the sun before burning compared to not wearing any sunscreen at all. So, if you would usually begin to burn after 5 minutes in the sun, an SPF of 30 would theoretically allow you to spend time outside for 150 minutes (30 x 5) before you burn. However, your unique skin, your activities, and the sun’s intensity all cause variation in how effective sunscreen is, so you may need to use more than other people.\\nThe SPF number can be tricky, because its protection doesn’t increase proportionally. Thus, SPF 60 is not twice as good as SPF 30. SPF 15 blocks about 94% of UVB rays, SPF 30 blocks about 97%, and SPF 45 blocks about 98%. No sunscreen blocks 100% of UVB rays.\\nThe American Academy of Dermatology recommends an SPF of 30 or higher. The difference between extremely high SPFs is often negligible and not worth the extra money.\\nIf you're going swimming or sweating, go with a sunscreen that's SPF 50.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Choose a “broad-spectrum” sunscreen.\", \"描述\": \"SPF refers only to the ability to block UVB rays, which cause sunburn. However, the sun also emits UVA rays. UVA rays cause skin damage, such as signs of aging, wrinkles and dark or light spots. Both increase your risk of skin cancer. A broad-spectrum sunscreen provides protection from both UVA and UVB rays.\\nSome sunscreens may not say “broad-spectrum” on the packaging. However, they should always state whether they protect against UVB and UVA rays.\\nMost broad-spectrum sunscreens contain “inorganic” components such as titanium dioxide or zinc oxide, as well as “organic” sunscreen components such as avobenzone, Cinoxate, oxybenzone, or octyl methoxycinnamate.\"}, {\"编号\": 3, \"标题\": \"Look for a water-resistant sunscreen.\", \"描述\": \"Because your body expels water through sweat, you should look for a water-resistant sunscreen. This is especially important if you are going to be very active, such as running or hiking, or if you’ll be in the water.\\nNo sunscreen is “waterproof” or “sweat proof.” In the US, sunscreens cannot market themselves as “waterproof.”\\nEven with water-resistant sunscreen, reapply every 40-80 minutes or as directed on the label.\"}, {\"编号\": 4, \"标题\": \"Decide what you like.\", \"描述\": \"Some people prefer spray sunscreens, while others prefer thick creams or gels. Whatever you decide, make sure you apply a thick, even coating. The application is as important as the SPF and other factors: if you don’t apply it properly, the sunscreen won’t do its job.\\nSprays may be best for hairy areas, while creams are usually best for dry skin. Alcohol or gel sunscreens are good for oily skin.\\nYou can also purchase wax sunscreen sticks, which are good for applying near the eyes. This is often a good choice for children, as it avoids getting the sunscreen in the eyes. They also have the benefit of not spilling (such as in a purse) and can be applied without getting lotion on your hands.\\nWater resistant \\\"sports type\\\" sunscreens are often sticky, so they are not good choices for applying under makeup.\\nFor acne-prone individual, take care in selecting your sunscreen. Look for those that are designed specifically for your face and will not clog pores. These often have higher SPF (15 or higher), and are less likely to clog pores or increase acne breakouts.\\nMany acne-prone individuals find that zinc oxide-based sunscreens tend to work best.\\nLook for \\\"non-comedogenic\\\", \\\"will not clog pores\\\", \\\"for sensitive skin\\\", or \\\"for acne-prone skin\\\" on the labels.\"}, {\"编号\": 5, \"标题\": \"Go home and try a small portion around your wrist.\", \"描述\": \"If you see any allergic reaction or skin problem, buy a different sunscreen. Repeat the process until you find the right sunscreen, or talk to your doctor about recommended brands if you have sensitive skin or allergies.\\nItching, redness, burning, or blisters are all signs of an allergic reaction. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide are less likely to cause allergic skin reactions.\"}]}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Applying a Sunscreen\", \"步骤\": [{\"编号\": 1, \"标题\": \"Check the expiration date.\", \"描述\": \"The FDA requires sunscreen to retain its protective power for at least three years from the date of manufacture. However, you should always note expiration dates. If the date has passed, ditch the old bottle and buy some new sunscreen.\\nIf your product doesn’t have an expiration date when you purchase it, use a permanent marker or a label to write the purchase date on the bottle. This way you’ll know how long you’ve had the product.\\nObvious changes in the product, such as color changes, separation, or different consistency, are signs that the sunscreen has expired.\"}, {\"编号\": 2, \"标题\": \"Apply before going out in the sun.\", \"描述\": \"The chemicals in sunscreen take time to bind to your skin and become fully protective. Apply your sunscreen before you go out.\\nSunscreen on the skin should be applied 30 minutes before you go out into the sun. Lip sunscreen should be applied 45-60 minutes before going into the sun.\\nSunscreen needs to :\\\"cure\\\" on the skin to be fully effective. This is especially important in the water-resistance factor. If you put on sunscreen and jump into the pool 5 minutes later, much of your protection will be lost.\\nThis is also very important for caring for children. Children are usually wriggly and impatient, and are usually doubly so when excited about an outdoor adventure; after all, who can stand still when the ocean is right there? Instead, try to sunscreen before leaving the house, or in the parking lot, or waiting for the bus.\"}, {\"编号\": 3, \"标题\": \"Use enough.\", \"描述\": \"One of the biggest mistakes in using sunscreen is to not use enough. Adults usually need about one ounce -- a palm-ful, or about a shot glass full -- of sunscreen to cover exposed skin.\\nTo apply cream or gel sunscreen, squeeze a dollop into your palm. Spread it all over the skin that will be exposed to the sun. Rub the sunscreen into your skin until you can't see the white anymore.\\nTo apply spray sunscreen, hold the bottle upright and move the bottle back and forth across your skin.

2,101 | How to Apply Tape‐In Hair Extensions | 1. Sectioning Your Hair
1-1. Wash your hair.
Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson explains, "I don't suggest [applying tape-in extensions] on greasy hair. They should always be applied on clean hair and [with] no products in it." Before applying your extensions, wash and dry your hair as you normally would.
1-2. Make a part across your scalp.
About an inch from the nape of your neck, use your finger or a comb to make a horizontal part. You will apply the extensions near the line made by the part. This way, your upper hair will hide the clips. Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson emphasizes the importance of parting your hair away from the hairline: "Never install tape-in extensions too close to your hairline. You always need to have enough hair in the front to cover the tape-in extensions."
1-3. Section off the top hair.
You can use a hair tie or hair clips to secure all the hair above the part line. Just make sure it's completely secured. You do not want any hair falling down and getting in the way while you're securing your extensions.
1-4. Remove a thin portion of your hair from the non-clipped part.
The idea is to sandwich a thin strand of hair below your part line between top and bottom extensions. The strand of hair you're sandwiching needs to be very thin, about ⁄8 inch (0.32 cm). This is so the adhesive tape on both extensions can stick together through the hair. Grab a very thin strand of hair from the hair below your part line about the length of one extension. Make sure the hair is thin enough your fingers can feel one another through the hair.
1-5. Measure the section.
Before attaching the extension, use a cloth tape measurer to measure the section of hair that you parted. This way, you can determine how many pieces of the extension you'll need to add along that section of hair. Do this for every section.
2. Applying Your Extensions
2-1. Attach the bottom extension under the thin portion of hair.
Take your strand of hair and lift it up a little. Remove the strip covering the adhesive on the bottom extension. Press on the bottom extension underneath the thin strand of hair you're lifting.
2-2. Secure the top extension.
Take the top extension. After removing the adhesive tape covering that extension, press on top of your strand of hair. The top and bottom extension should stick together. Then press them together with pliers for a few seconds to secure them.
If the extensions are not sticking, you used too much hair in your strand. Gently brush some hair off the bottom extension.
2-3. Repeat the process.
Move across your side part, repeating this process until you have added all the extensions. The precise number of extensions you are adding depends on the size of your head. You will likely use about 5 rows of hair extensions or more, depending on how voluminous you want your hairstyle to be.
If you plan to add extensions on the sides of your head, leave 1 inch (2.5 cm) of hair out horizontally, closest to the ear, and then continue applying the extensions.
If you have a thin hairline, leave about 1 inch (2.5 cm) of hair out across your entire hairline before adding extensions, just to make sure that your hair has enough density to cover the tape-ins without making them noticeable.
3. Caring for Your Hair Afterwards
3-1. Take extra time for hair care.
Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson explains, "I always advise my clients to put their hair into braids so the hair doesn't get tangled. [...] And definitely brush it daily." She goes on to say that extensions "create a lot of weight on your scalp and the hair [can get] tangled [more easily than your natural hair]." Make sure to account for having more hair in the morning. Give yourself an extra 10 to 15 minutes to get ready every day.
3-2. Wash your extensions thoroughly and carefully.
Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson shares, "I put some shampoo on my fingertips and then I go through the [extension] rows with the shampoo. That way, I make sure I get the debris in between the rows too. I always use a conditioner after, mid-shaft to ends, and definitely don't [apply conditioner to the roots]."If you plan to spend time in the pool or in the ocean, Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson notes, "I advise my clients to take a shower first so that the hair gets absorbed with clean water, and use a conditioner on your hair to protect it from the chemicals in the water or the salt so the hair doesn't dry out fast or [get] discolored from the chlorine."
3-3. Brush your hair regularly.
Extensions are prone to tangling. To keep your hair looking fresh and natural, brush your hair at least twice a day while your extensions are in place. Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson advises, "Take care of [the extensions] like it's your own hair."
Remember, hair care may take extra time when you're wearing extensions.
Synthetic extensions are more prone to tangling than human hair extensions.
3-4. Secure your hair overnight.
As hair tangles easier, Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson recommends that you "put your hair into a ponytail or into braids." It can also help to sleep on silk pillows.As Hair Stylist Madeline Johnson explains, "the texture of silk is so soft and slippery that it doesn't grab onto your hair like other products can do. [...] It causes less breakage."

2,102 | How to Apply Termidor | 1. Purchasing Termidor
1-1. Check if Termidor is available for sale in your area.
In some regions, Termidor is only sold to pest control professionals who are Termidor Certified. These individuals are trained in how to effectively use this pesticide without risking harm to people, pets or the environment. However, it is available for sale online in some areas, and you may be able to get it shipped to you. Additionally, it's sold in some hardware stores in places without restrictions.
Although it's sold online, stores usually won't ship to regions where it's not legal to purchase Termidor without a certification.
Keep in mind that termites are very difficult to treat on your own. If you miss just one spot, your termite shield will be ineffective. Hiring a trained professional is the best way to ensure a successful treatment.
1-2. Order Termidor online or purchase it from a hardware store, if it's available.
Buy the amount recommended for your home's square footage. You'll need to treat the entire perimeter of your home, even if you only have termites in one small area.
If you only treat a small area around your home, the termites will just move to the untreated area.
You'll also need a pesticide sprayer in order to apply the Termidor around your home.
You can purchase Termidor for under $100, if it's sold in your area.
1-3. Hire a Termidor Certified professional if Termidor is unavailable to you.
Use the zip code locator on Termidor’s website to find a professional in your area. Research the professional to check their service record and look for complaints. Get at least 3 different quotes, if possible, to help you identify the best value. Ask your professional for a pest control plan in writing, which includes how many treatments are included in the price. Many plans cover a 1-2 year period, since termites are hard to eradicate.
You can find the zip code locator here: https://www.termidorhome.com/. If you live outside the United States, you’ll need to do an online search for pest control professionals in your area.
Make sure they are licensed to operate in your area, and check that they’re a member of local or national pest control associations. Additionally, read reviews from prior customers.
2. Securing the Area
2-1. Prevent the product from entering nearby waterways.
This includes drains, wells, ponds, streams, rivers, and other water sources. Termidor SC is toxic to humans, fish, and other wildlife, so you don’t want it tainting the water.
Never apply this product near an area you know will runoff into a waterway. Remember, you can’t get it out of the water once it’s gone into it. If you’re in doubt, call in a professional.
2-2. Check the weather forecast to make sure no rain is expected within 48 hours.
Rain will wash away the Termidor SC, reducing its effectiveness. Additionally, this may cause the product to contaminate nearby waterways. However, allowing 48 hours for the product to dry will ensure it stays in place.
Do your best to apply the Termidor SC on a clear day, if you can.
2-3. Keep any family members, roommates, or pets out of the home for 1-2 hours.
The fumes from the pesticide can be toxic in high doses, so you want to allow the area time to ventilate. Although this may not always be necessary, it’s better to keep your family and pets safe.
Since you’re applying the treatment outdoors, you don’t need to open windows or doors to ventilate the inside of your home.
2-4. Warn your neighbors that you will be using a pesticide.
They may prefer to leave the premises or secure their pets away from the area. This is especially important if anyone has a pet that typically roams around your home, as it may inadvertently come into contact with the pesticide.
Say, “I’m going to be applying a pesticide to kill termites around my home. It’s considered safe for use around humans and pets, but I wanted to let you know so you can avoid the area for a few hours.”
2-5. Use plastic sheeting to cover your exterior air conditioning ducts, vents, and drains.
Use painter’s tape to secure the plastic sheeting around the ducts, vents, or drains. Make sure there are no gaps around the plastic, so that there is no leakage. This prevents the Termidor from getting into your home.
Cover the vents on the outside of your home, since that's where you'll be applying the Termidor. You don't want it to come into your home through the vents.
Turn off your air conditioner or heating system while your vents are covered.
2-6. Tent or remove edible plants so they don’t get contaminated.
If you get the Termidor on your plants, they will be toxic for consumption. If you can, remove the plants from the area while you apply the pesticide. However, you can cover them with a plastic sheet if this is not an option. Use a stick or rod to tent the plastic sheeting so that it doesn’t crush the plant.
You should still wash the part of the plant you eat before consuming it.
2-7. Mark the location of electrical lines, sewer lines, and plumbing and heating pipes.
It’s important that you don’t make contact with any electrical lines, as this can result in injury or death. Similarly, don’t risk puncturing sewer lines, plumbing pipes, or heating pipes. This can be both dangerous and unpleasant.
You may need to call out your local authorities to mark them for you.
2-8. Use a hoe to loosen the soil around the perimeter of your home, if necessary.
Break up the soil that’s directly beside your home’s foundation. This will keep the Termidor SC from flowing away from the treatment area. Hard-packed soil is hard for the treatment to penetrate, so it will not soak in as well.
If you don’t have a hoe, you can use a shovel or spade.
2-9. Dig a 6 in (15 cm) wide and 6 in (15 cm) deep trench around the base of your home.
Use a shovel to make your trench and follow the entire perimeter of your home. The trench allows the Termidor to penetrate below the soil, killing the subterranean termites. Additionally, it prevents the product from flowing away from the treatment area.
Trenches are necessary and effective whether your house is built on a slab or on blocks. For a home built on a slab, the trench will run alongside the slab. If your home is on blocks, the trench will run in front of the blocks.
2-10. Hammer rods about 4 in (10 cm) into the trench, spaced 12 in (30 cm) apart.
Using rods is optional but will allow the Termidor to reach even further into the ground, providing extra protection. You can use any metal stake or rebar for your rods. Remove the rods after you create a hole.
Remember not to hit any pipes or sewer lines.
Pest control professionals use rodding to help the product work more effectively, but not all homeowners will use it.
3. Mixing the Termidor
3-1. Put on personal protective gear before handling and applying Termidor.
This includes a washable hat, protective eyewear, a face mask, thick work gloves, a long sleeved shirt, long pants, and close-toed shoes.
It’s best to wear a half-facepiece respirator with a combined dust and gas cartridge, as this provides the best protection against breathing in the fumes.
3-2. Fill about ⅓ of your sprayer tank with water.
You don’t need to worry about how much water you’re putting in. As long as you know the size of your tank, you’ll be able to create the right mixture by measuring out your Termidor.
Use your water hose or a bucket to fill the tank.
You'll need to purchase a pesticide sprayer separately from the Termidor. Choose a model that comes with a pump and applicator.
If you don't have a sprayer, you can use a 5 US gal (19 L) bucket to mix and apply the Termidor. However, application won't be as easy and may not be even. Additionally, it's best to use a sprayer to treat the soil you took out of your trench.
3-3. Attach the applicator tube to the tank.
Follow the instructions for your sprayer to make sure the applicator is securely attached. As you mix your solution, the sprayer pump will prime your applicator tube by cycling the solution through it.
This is the part that sprays the solution.
3-4. Start the pump to begin agitating the water.
Follow the instructions for your particular model. You should see the water rippling due to the pumping action. Once you add the Termidor SC, it will start mixing with the water.
If you’re not sure how to turn on your pump, check the instruction manual.
3-5. Add the correct amount of Termidor SC, as directed on the label.
Measure out the Termidor SC and put it into the sprayer tank. The pump will mix the solution for you, so don’t try to shake or stir it.
3-6. Fill the rest of the tank with water.
Use your water hose or bucket to add water until it reaches the fill line on your sprayer model. Don’t overflow the tank, as this may spill the pesticide solution onto ground that’s not being treated.
3-7. Wait 2-3 minutes for the Termidor SC to dissolve.
Then, your solution will be ready for use. Leave the pump on as you use the sprayer so that the solution remains mixed.
4. Spraying the Termidor
4-1. Spray the Termidor into the trench you dug around your home.
Saturate the soil and allow the solution to puddle in the trench. It’s better to apply a little more solution than necessary, as it will soak into the soil around your home. Since termites are likely living in the soil around your home, this is necessary to kill them.
For best results, apply about 4 gallons (15 L) of Termidor for every 10 feet (3.0 m) of the length of your trench. However, your soil may not accept this much pesticide, so you can apply less if necessary.
Stop spraying if the pesticide starts to runoff.
4-2. Pour about 4 gallons (15 L) of the Termidor solution into each rod hole, if applicable.
Use the markings on your sprayer to determine how much solution you are applying. The Termidor will soak into the ground around the holes and kill the termites.
The holes allow the product to penetrate deeper into the ground.
4-3. Treat the entire perimeter of your home.
Walk slowly as you treat the entire length of each side of your home. It doesn’t matter if you’ve only seen the termites in one area. You still need to treat the entire home. If you leave any spots untreated, the termites will just move there and resume damaging your home.
5. Finishing Your Application
5-1. Check that the Termidor has soaked into the trench before you fill it up.
In most cases, you'll notice that the pesticide has soaked into the ground at your starting spot once you've worked your way around your home. If it hasn't, give it more time to dissipate. Monitor the area until there's no more standing liquid in the trench.
This ensures that the Termidor goes as far into the ground as possible. If you add soil back into the trench before it soaks into the ground, the added soil will soak up some of the pesticide.
5-2. Spray the Termidor on the soil you dug out of the trench.
Use long, even strokes to wet the soil with the pesticide. This ensures that termites will make contact with the treatment. If you don't treat this soil, termites that stay on the surface of the ground won't die.
Use a sprayer to treat this soil. If you use a bucket, it will be too hard to control the application.
If you can, ask someone to help you refill the trench. It's faster and easier to accomplish this if one person is treating the soil and the other person is putting it back into the trench.
5-3. Refill your trench with the treated soil.
Use your shovel to push the soil back into the trench. Work your way around your entire home until the trench is completely filled in with soil.
If you don't have a shovel, you can use a garden hoe to refill the trench.

2,103 | How to Apply Testosterone Cream | 1. Applying Testosterone Cream
1-1. Choose your product.
Once it's been established by your doctor (via blood tests) that your body is producing less testosterone than it should, talk with your doctor about what product (and strength) is most appropriate for your situation. Androgel and Fortesta are both available in individual packets and multi-dose pumps. Vogelxo is available as individual packets, multi-dose pumps and tubes.
If you are using a pump for the first time, prime it before measuring out your first dose by holding it over the sink and pushing the pump all the way down at least three times for the Androgel and Vogelxo pumps or eight for the Fortesta pump.
The individual packets (Androgel, Fortesta and Vogelxo) are more convenient to use because they are pre-portioned and easy to access — you just have to tear the packet open.
1-2. Measure out the correct dose.
Once you've primed the gel pump, place the palm of your hand under the pump and push down the recommended number of times as prescribed by your doctor. The strength of the gel and the number of pumps needed are based on what your base testosterone levels are and how large a person you are. If you're using a tube of Vogelxo gel, then simply measure out the recommended amount into your hand — typically about the size of a 50 cent piece.
AndroGel is available in two dosage strengths: 1% and 1.62% concentrations. Both are applied to the skin, but in different amounts.
The recommended starting dose of Androgel 1% is 50 mg applied once daily to your skin.
If you are using the individual foil packets, tear the packet open along the perforated margin and squeeze the entire contents either into the palm of your hand or directly onto your skin where your doctor recommended applying it.
1-3. Apply the cream/gel to your body.
Apply the testosterone cream/gel to clean, dry skin somewhere on your shoulders, upper arms or abdomen (stomach) — unless your doctor recommends a different location. The stronger concentration of AndroGel (1.62%) is usually applied to the shoulders and upper arms only. In general, the cream/gel is applied to areas that can be covered by clothes easily to prevent children, women and pets from coming into contact with it.
Fortesta gel/cream is typically applied to the front or inner skin of the thighs (upper legs).
In contrast, Vogelxo gel/cream is only applied to the shoulders or upper arms, but not the abdomen or stomach.
Testosterone cream/gel is never applied to the scrotum or penis. Don't apply it to skin that has any cuts or scrapes.
1-4. Wash your hands before and after applying it.
As soon as you finish applying the testosterone cream/gel to your clean, dry skin, it's important to wash your hands with warm water and soap immediately afterwards. The potential danger is transferring some of the hormone to a child, woman or pet before it completely absorbs into the skin of your hands. If another person does accidentally get this medicine on the skin, wash the area with soap and water as soon as possible.
Although testosterone is beneficial for men (within reasonable doses), it can disrupt the hormone balance in children, women and pets, such as dogs and cats.
Don't touch anyone or any pet immediately after applying testosterone cream/gel. Thoroughly wash and dry your hands (with a clean towel) before doing anything else.
1-5. Cover the application area with clothes.
After you've washed and dried your hands, it's time to put on clothes in order to cover the area of application. Doing so is more for the protection of others (and pets) than anything else. Allow the testosterone cream/gel at least 10 minutes to absorb into your skin before putting on shirts, pants or shorts.
Depending on the health and hydration of your skin, it may take less than 10 minutes for most of the gel to absorb, or it might take as long as 20 minutes.
It's best to wear cotton garments that are breathable so that the testosterone gel can continue to absorb into your skin once your clothes are on.
1-6. Don't shower for at least two hours or more.
Just to be on the safe side, it's recommended that you don't get your skin wet for at least two hours after applying the testosterone gel. More specifically, wait for at least two hours if you apply either AndroGel 1.62%, Fortesta or Vogelxo, but closer to five hours if you apply AndroGel 1% before showering, bathing or swimming in a pool.
You should also avoid lots of vigorous exercise for a few hours after applying the testosterone gel if the exertion makes you sweat a lot.
Although the gel/cream may look like it's completely absorbed into your skin after 10 minutes or so, it actually takes longer for it to penetrate all the layers of your skin and reach your bloodstream.
2. Taking Precautions with Testosterone Cream
2-1. See your doctor at regular intervals.
It's important to schedule regular visits with your doctor (every few months or so) so they can check your progress, take blood samples and see if the testosterone medication is working as expected. It can take three to six months of daily application of testosterone gel for hormone levels to become normal — sometimes longer.
Sign and symptoms that your testosterone levels may be too low include: low sex drive, trouble getting an erection, hair loss, lack of energy, loss of muscle mass, increase in body fat and mood changes (depression).
Testosterone gel/cream should not be used treat the symptoms of low testosterone in men who have low testosterone due to normal aging.
2-2. Keep it away from women and children.
Although testosterone medication can make significant health improvements in men who have abnormally low levels, the hormone can be harmful to women and children. For females, it can create a hormone imbalance with estrogen and trigger more masculine secondary sexual characteristics to develop — deeper voice, more hair growth, etc. For young boys it can over-stimulate their development or make the sexual characteristics appear prematurely.
Testosterone therapy may cause birth defects in pregnant women who come in contact with the medicine.
In reality, rubbing up against the skin of someone who's just applied the gel is not especially dangerous, but repeated exposure to testosterone can certainly cause problems in women, fetuses and children — as well as pets.
Children and women should also avoid contact with the unwashed clothing of someone who uses testosterone gel.
2-3. Recognize negative side effects.
Testosterone is a steroidal hormone and applying it to your skin for long periods of time (many months or years) increases the risk of negative side effects. More common side effects include blood in the urine, difficulty urinating and frequent urination because hormone therapy can affect the prostate gland in men. Report any noticeable side effects to your doctor immediately.
Other relatively common side effects include: bloating and swelling around the body (face, hands, feet), acne on the face and back, blurred vision, feeling dizzy, flushed face, headache, aggressive behavior, sweating, hair loss and faster heartbeat. If you have sleep apnea it may worsen and you may need to speak with your doctor about treatment with a CPAP machine.
Men using testosterone cream are also at risk for deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism due to the increased red blood cell count that results from testosterone therapy. You may want to talk to your doctor about screening for this and keep an eye out for leg/calf pain or shortness of breath.
Taking testosterone medication typically causes your testicles to get smaller due to atrophy (not working as hard producing natural testosterone).
On the other hand, testosterone gel therapy can enlarge the penis in men and clitoris in women.
Tips
Testosterone gel is flammable until it dries on your skin, so don't apply it near heat, an open flame or while smoking a cigarette.
Store your testosterone gel in a closed container at room temperature, away from any heat source, moisture and direct light. Never freeze it.
If your skin starts to get irritated and itchy from applying the testosterone gel, change locations but make sure to clear it with your doctor first.

2,104 | How to Apply Thermal Paste | 1. Preparing the Surface
1-1. Choose a good thermal paste.
Most of the basic thermal greases contain silicone and zinc oxide, while more expensive compounds contain heat conductors such as silver or ceramic. Silver or ceramic thermal greases facilitate more efficient heat transmission. However, the basic thermal grease will sufficiently fill the needs for most applications.
If you are planning on overclocking your computer, try to get thermal paste composed mainly of silver, copper, or gold. These are the most conductive metals commonly used in thermal paste.
1-2. Clean the CPU and heat sink surfaces.
Wipe the surface lightly with a cotton ball or cotton swab dampened with isopropyl alcohol. The higher the percentage of alcohol the better. 70 percent is good but 90 percent is better (if you can find it).
If you're building with brand new components, try not to touch the heatsink surface or the surface of the CPU. Even if your hands are clean, you're still transferring oil from your skin to the surface, which can reduce its ability to transfer heat.
1-3. Sand the heat sink and processor surfaces if necessary.
Ideally, the two touching surfaces will be perfectly flat, allowing for as much contact as possible. If your heat sink base is rough, you can wet-sand it with fine grit paper or emery cloth it to make it smoother. This isn’t necessary unless you are aiming for the ultimate in cooling performance.
Thermal paste is designed to fill in the gaps and imperfections on the surfaces that you are joining. Since modern production techniques cannot make surfaces without imperfections, thermal paste will always be necessary.
Even if the surfaces of your components seem to be completely flat, there are still tiny surface imperfections that will trap pockets of air, reducing the heat transfer. For this reason, it's best to always use thermal paste.
2. Applying to Circular-based Coolers
2-1. Place a tiny drop of thermal paste to the center of the cooler base.
The bead of paste should be smaller than a BB or a grain of rice. If you’ve read that it should be “pea-sized”, that is far too much paste, and you will end up with paste on your motherboard.
There is no need to spread the paste for circular coolers, as the pressure of being applied will spread it evenly across the surface.
Alternatively, you can place your thermal paste in an 'X' pattern across the chip, although make sure to only use a tiny amount as you'll be covering a greater area than the 'blob method'.
2-2. Attach the heat sink to the processor.
Install the heat sink with even pressure from all sides, and the bead that you placed on the surface will spread over the entire contact surface. This will create a thin, even layer that will fill any gaps but avoid excess build up.
As heat is applied, the paste will become thinner and spread more towards the edges. This is why using a small amount of paste is important, as a little goes a long way.
Tighten the heat sink from each corner a little at a time. For example turn the top right screw twice, then switch to two turns on the bottom left, before moving the the top left, then the bottom right, and continue until all screws are tight. This will allow for even pressure for both the component, helping to avoid damage, and even spreading of your thermal paste.
2-3. Avoid removing the heat sink after installing it.
It can be difficult to check if your paste has been applied correctly. If you break the seal that is created when you install the heat sink, you will need to restart the process, first cleaning off the old paste and then reapplying it.
2-4. Connect the CPU fan to the motherboard.
The CPU fan wire should be plugged in the CPU fan socket to supply power to the fan as well as allowing the computer to adjust the speed of the fan.
The connector is usually a three-pin plug usually above the CPU cooler on the motherboard, labelled with 'CPU FAN' or something similar.
2-5. Boot the system.
Check that the fan is spinning. Enter the BIOS by pressing F1 or Del key as the computer boots up. Check if the temperature is normal, CPU temperature should be below 40 degree Celsius when idle, same for GPU.
The key used to enter the BIOS of your computer could vary, so check the motherboard manual. Common keys are ESC, DEL, F12 and F1
3. Applying to Square-based Coolers
3-1. Apply paste to the base of the cooler.
Applying paste to a square cooler is a bit more challenging than a round one, because simply placing a dot and applying pressure will not result in full coverage. There are varying approaches that people claim allegiances to, so we’ll cover a few of the more popular ones:
The lines method – Place two thin lines of thermal compound on the base of the cooler. The lines should be parallel and spaced so that they are each placed a third of the width of the processor. The lines themselves should also be about a third of the processor’s width in length.
The cross method – This is very similar to the previous method, but the lines are crossed in an “X” pattern instead of parallel. The length and thickness of the lines should be the same as the previous method.
The spread method – This is one of the most popular and effective methods, but takes a little more effort. Place a small amount of thermal paste onto the base of the cooler. Using a plastic finger protector or a plastic bag, use your finger to spread the paste evenly across the surface. Make sure to cover the entire surface that will be in contact with the processor, and ensure that you do not apply the paste too thick. In most cases, the paste should barely hide the metal underneath.
3-2. Install the heat sink.
If you are using either of the line methods, apply even pressure to the heat sink as you install it to ensure that the paste covers the entire surface. If you are using the spread method, you MUST install the heat sink at a slight angle to prevent bubbles from forming. This is because the paste is usually spread too thin to compensate for bubbles after pressure is applied.
3-3. Reconnect the fan to the motherboard.
The CPU fan wire should be plugged in the CPU fan socket because it mostly has the PWM function which allows the computer to adjust the fan speed automatically without changing voltage.
3-4. Boot the system altogether.
Check that the fan is spinning. Enter the BIOS by pressing F1 or Del key during POST. Check if the temperature is normal, CPU temperature should be below 40 degree Celsius when idle, same for GPU.
The key used to enter the BIOS of your computer could vary, so check the motherboard manual. Common keys are ESC, DEL, F12 and F1
Tips
Thin thermal paste is ideal while thick thermal paste decrease the heat transferring rate. Thermal paste is for filling the gap between the chip and the heat sink, also the tiny up and down on them.
If latex gloves are used to spread the thermal paste across the designated surface, make sure they are the powder free type. If powder and thermal paste combine, the heat sink will be degraded severely.
After cleaning the surface with alcohol, do not touch the surface with your bare finger. Your finger has its own oils that will damage the surface and harm the coolers.
Warnings
Using oil based cleaners to clean your surfaces will ruin your coolers performance. They will prematurely and permanently fill the spaces the thermal paste is intended to, not allowing the paste to do its job. If the oil based cleaner is used and thermal paste is placed on top of it, the coolers will never work efficiently.
Although it may seem obvious, ensure your computer is switched 'Off' on the power supply switch. Even if the computer is shut down, there is still power in the motherboard, so it's best practice to switch this off first.

2,105 | How to Apply Thermal Paste to a PS4 | 1. What is thermal paste?
Thermal paste keeps your PS4 from overheating.
This paste goes between your console’s CPU and cooling system, it transfers heat from the CPU to the heatsink and keeps your PS4 at a normal temperature. Your console is manufactured with thermal paste, but this can deteriorate, leading to overheating issues.
2. What thermal paste should I use for my PS4?
Arctic, Noctua, and Thermal Grizzly are popular brands.
PS4 enthusiasts recommend products like the Arctic MX 4, Noctua NT-H1, Thermal Grizzly Kryonaut, Thermal Grizzly Conductonaut, and Arctic Silver 5 AS5. These pastes are all easy to apply, and work well with the PS4.
3. Where can I get thermal paste for my PS4?
Buy thermal paste online or at electronics stores.
Online marketplaces like Amazon and eBay carry thermal paste, as do big-name electronics stores, like Best Buy.
4. How much does thermal paste cost?
Thermal paste is typically $15 or less.
Some companies sell their paste as low as $5. Certain thermal pastes come with a flat applicator, which makes it easier to apply the paste.
5. Where do I apply the thermal paste?
The thermal paste goes on your PS4’s processor.
After disassembling your PS4, set aside the motherboard—this looks like a flat, green and orange section. Unscrew and remove the curved, metal brace from the motherboard to find the processor.
The processor is a small, square section along the center of the motherboard.
6. Do I need to remove the old thermal paste first?
Yes, you do.
Try to peel away any of the old, dried thermal paste with a clean cotton swab. Then, dip the cotton swab in isopropyl alcohol and clean off the surface.
Clean the entire surface of the CPU and GPU, make sure to remove any dirt or dust particles.
7. How much thermal paste should I use?
Use a pea-sized amount.
With thermal paste, a little goes a long way. Squeeze a dot of paste along the center of the processor to get the repair started.
8. Should I spread thermal paste?
Yes, you should.
Use a flat object, like a business card. Press and drag the item on top of the thermal paste, smearing it into a flat layer along the surface of the processor. If you don’t have a flat object nearby, smear the paste with a gloved finger.
Tips
Before you replace your thermal paste, wipe away the dust from your console and see if that makes a difference.[9]

2,106 | How to Apply Tile Sealer | 1. Choosing the Right Sealer
1-1. Seal your tile if it’s porous and absorbs water.
Porous tiles need to be sealed or resealed to protect them and keep them from breaking down over time. You can test to see if your tile is porous by placing a wet sponge on it for a minute and then removing the sponge. If there is a dark spot where you placed the sponge, then your tile is porous and needs to be sealed.
If the water in the sponge stays as droplets on the surface of the tile, then the tile doesn’t need to be resealed.
1-2. Choose a penetrating sealer if you don’t want a film on the surface.
A penetrating tile sealer will penetrate and impregnate the surface of the tile to seal and protect it. A penetrating sealer won’t change the appearance of the tile and will not peel or flake off over time.
Penetrating sealers will last longer than topical tile sealers, but will not enhance the appearance of the tile.
1-3. Go with a topical tile sealer to add a high-gloss appearance.
Topical sealers sit on top of the surface of the tile, forming a protective film. The film will add a glossy sheen to the surface of the tile and can enhance the color and aesthetic of the tile, but is prone to peeling and flaking after some wear and tear.
Topical tile sealers will need to be reapplied more often than penetrating tile sealers, especially if it’s used in a high-traffic area such as a bathroom or hallway.
1-4. Use a solvent-based tile sealer for ceramic and porcelain tile.
Petroleum or solvent-based tile sealers work best on glassy surfaces such as ceramic and porcelain. They’ll protect the tile from scratches and breaks and will adhere to the surface better than water-based sealers.
Ceramic and porcelain tile are much less porous than natural stone, so a solvent-based tile sealer is much more effective at coating them.
You can find solvent-based tile sealers at home improvement stores and online.
1-5. Select a water-based tile sealer for natural stone tiles.
The naturally porous stone tiles greatly benefit from being sealed by a water-based tile sealer. The larger pores absorb the sealer more easily and are better protected and enhanced by it.
The natural pores of the stone tiles more readily absorb the water-based tile sealer.
Look for water-based tile sealers at home improvement stores and online.
2. Cleaning the Tile
2-1. Vacuum the tile to remove dust, dirt, and debris.
Take a vacuum to the floor tile and use the hose extension on the wall or any hard to reach areas to suck up any dust or dirt from the surface of the tile. Pay extra attention to the corners and any grout between the tiles so debris doesn’t get trapped beneath the tile sealer.
2-2. Add a few drops of dish soap to 1 gallon (3,800 mL) of warm water.
Fill a medium-sized bucket with warm water and add the dish soap to it. Stir the mixture with your mop and slosh it around to work it up into a lather.
Use warm or hot water to allow the mixture to form soapy bubbles. But don’t use water so hot that it could burn you!
2-3. Mop the tile with the cleaning solution.
Dip the mop into the bucket of soapy water and run it over the surface of the tile. Be sure to cover all of the tiles evenly and work the mop into the corners and grout lines to lift dirt, grime, and stains from the surface.
Apply more soapy water to the mop and let the excess water drain into the bucket to keep the mop saturated with soap.
2-4. Scrub the grout with a toothbrush to remove stains.
Focus on cleaning the grout, or the lines between the tiles, by dipping a small brush, like a toothbrush, into the cleaning solution and rubbing the grout. Apply pressure to the brush and use a brisk, back and forth motion to scrub the grout well and lift any dirt, stains, or grime from it.
You can use a hard-bristled cleaning brush but don’t use a wire or metal brush or you could damage the grout.
2-5. Rinse the tile with clean water.
Wash away all of the soap from the surface of the tile so it’s clean and clear. Use a bucket of clean water to rinse the tile. Make sure you get all of the soap off so it doesn’t affect the adhesion of the sealer.
If you’re washing tile on an outdoor patio, use a garden hose to rinse it clean.
2-6. Allow the tile to dry for at least 6 hours.
The tile must be completely dry before you apply any sealer to it or it won’t properly adhere to the surface. When you’re finished rinsing it clean, leave the tile undisturbed overnight or for at least 6 hours. Then, check to see if it’s dry by running your finger over the surface to feel for moisture.
If the tile is still wet or damp, wait another hour and then check it again.
Use towels to soak up the water or aim a fan at the tile to help it dry faster.
3. Sealing the Tile
3-1. Fill a spray bottle with the tile sealer.
Carefully open the container of tile sealer and pour it into a clean spray bottle. Close the lid of the spray bottle securely so it doesn’t leak while you’re using it.
3-2. Hold the bottle 6 inches (15 cm) from the surface and spray the tile.
Use the spray bottle to apply a thin coating of the sealer all over the surface of the tile. Make sure you cover every area as evenly as you can, including the corners and edges of the tile.
If you’re sealing floor tile, start at the far side of the room and work in sections toward the exit so you don’t walk on the tile after spraying it.
Start at the upper corners of wall tile and work your way down to apply the sealer evenly.
3-3. Let the sealer sit for 5 minutes.
Allow the sealer to penetrate deep into the tile and form a protective coating. Leave the tile undisturbed for at least 5 minutes so the sealer can fully set.
Check the packaging of the sealer you’re using for specific drying times.
Set a timer on your phone or watch for 5 minutes.
3-4. Wipe over the tile with a damp cellulose sponge to remove the excess sealer.
Take a clean cellulose sponge, soak it in warm water, and wring out most of the water. Wipe down the surface of the tile with the sponge to soak up the excess sealer so it doesn’t form a sticky or uneven surface.

"回答明细": "{\"回答\": \"1. Choosing the Right Sealer\\n1-1. Seal your tile if it’s porous and absorbs water.\\nPorous tiles need to be sealed or resealed to protect them and keep them from breaking down over time. You can test to see if your tile is porous by placing a wet sponge on it for a minute and then removing the sponge. If there is a dark spot where you placed the sponge, then your tile is porous and needs to be sealed.\\nIf the water in the sponge stays as droplets on the surface of the tile, then the tile doesn’t need to be resealed.\\n1-2. Choose a penetrating sealer if you don’t want a film on the surface.\\nA penetrating tile sealer will penetrate and impregnate the surface of the tile to seal and protect it. A penetrating sealer won’t change the appearance of the tile and will not peel or flake off over time.\\nPenetrating sealers will last longer than topical tile sealers, but will not enhance the appearance of the tile.\\n1-3. Go with a topical tile sealer to add a high-gloss appearance.\\nTopical sealers sit on top of the surface of the tile, forming a protective film. The film will add a glossy sheen to the surface of the tile and can enhance the color and aesthetic of the tile, but is prone to peeling and flaking after some wear and tear. \\nTopical tile sealers will need to be reapplied more often than penetrating tile sealers, especially if it’s used in a high-traffic area such as a bathroom or hallway.\\n1-4. Use a solvent-based tile sealer for ceramic and porcelain tile.\\nPetroleum or solvent-based tile sealers work best on glassy surfaces such as ceramic and porcelain. They’ll protect the tile from scratches and breaks and will adhere to the surface better than water-based sealers.\\nCeramic and porcelain tile are much less porous than natural stone, so a solvent-based tile sealer is much more effective at coating them.\\nYou can find solvent-based tile sealers at home improvement stores and online.\\n1-5. Select a water-based tile sealer for natural stone tiles.\\nThe naturally porous stone tiles greatly benefit from being sealed by a water-based tile sealer. The larger pores absorb the sealer more easily and are better protected and enhanced by it.\\nThe natural pores of the stone tiles more readily absorb the water-based tile sealer.\\nLook for water-based tile sealers at home improvement stores and online.\\n2. Cleaning the Tile\\n2-1. Vacuum the tile to remove dust, dirt, and debris.\\nTake a vacuum to the floor tile and use the hose extension on the wall or any hard to reach areas to suck up any dust or dirt from the surface of the tile. Pay extra attention to the corners and any grout between the tiles so debris doesn’t get trapped beneath the tile sealer.\\n2-2. Add a few drops of dish soap to 1 gallon (3,800 mL) of warm water.\\nFill a medium-sized bucket with warm water and add the dish soap to it. Stir the mixture with your mop and slosh it around to work it up into a lather.\\nUse warm or hot water to allow the mixture to form soapy bubbles. But don’t use water so hot that it could burn you!\\n2-3. Mop the tile with the cleaning solution.\\nDip the mop into the bucket of soapy water and run it over the surface of the tile. Be sure to cover all of the tiles evenly and work the mop into the corners and grout lines to lift dirt, grime, and stains from the surface.\\nApply more soapy water to the mop and let the excess water drain into the bucket to keep the mop saturated with soap.\\n2-4. Scrub the grout with a toothbrush to remove stains.\\nFocus on cleaning the grout, or the lines between the tiles, by dipping a small brush, like a toothbrush, into the cleaning solution and rubbing the grout. Apply pressure to the brush and use a brisk, back and forth motion to scrub the grout well and lift any dirt, stains, or grime from it.\\nYou can use a hard-bristled cleaning brush but don’t use a wire or metal brush or you could damage the grout.\\n2-5. Rinse the tile with clean water.\\nWash away all of the soap from the surface of the tile so it’s clean and clear. Use a bucket of clean water to rinse the tile. Make sure you get all of the soap off so it doesn’t affect the adhesion of the sealer.\\nIf you’re washing tile on an outdoor patio, use a garden hose to rinse it clean.\\n2-6. Allow the tile to dry for at least 6 hours.\\nThe tile must be completely dry before you apply any sealer to it or it won’t properly adhere to the surface. When you’re finished rinsing it clean, leave the tile undisturbed overnight or for at least 6 hours. Then, check to see if it’s dry by running your finger over the surface to feel for moisture.\\nIf the tile is still wet or damp, wait another hour and then check it again.\\nUse towels to soak up the water or aim a fan at the tile to help it dry faster.\\n3. Sealing the Tile\\n3-1. Fill a spray bottle with the tile sealer.\\nCarefully open the container of tile sealer and pour it into a clean spray bottle. Close the lid of the spray bottle securely so it doesn’t leak while you’re using it.\\n3-2. Hold the bottle 6 inches (15 cm) from the surface and spray the tile.\\nUse the spray bottle to apply a thin coating of the sealer all over the surface of the tile. Make sure you cover every area as evenly as you can, including the corners and edges of the tile.\\nIf you’re sealing floor tile, start at the far side of the room and work in sections toward the exit so you don’t walk on the tile after spraying it.\\nStart at the upper corners of wall tile and work your way down to apply the sealer evenly.\\n3-3. Let the sealer sit for 5 minutes.\\nAllow the sealer to penetrate deep into the tile and form a protective coating. Leave the tile undisturbed for at least 5 minutes so the sealer can fully set.\\nCheck the packaging of the sealer you’re using for specific drying times.\\nSet a timer on your phone or watch for 5 minutes.\\n3-4. Wipe over the tile with a damp cellulose sponge to remove the excess sealer.\\nTake a clean cellulose sponge, soak it in warm water, and wring out most of the water. Wipe down the surface of the tile with the sponge to soak up the excess sealer so it doesn’t form a sticky or uneven surface.\\nDon’t scrub the tile with the sponge. Simply wipe over it to soak up the excess sealer.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Do you want to protect your tile from scratches and cracks and make it look more vibrant?

2,107 | How to Apply Tire Stickers | 1. Temporary
1-1. Wipe the tire sidewalls clean with acetone and a clean rag.
Dampen the rag with acetone by tipping the mouth of the container directly onto the rag for a few seconds. Scrub all the surfaces of the sidewalls clean until the rag stops getting more discolored and dirty, applying more acetone and using clean parts of the rag as needed.
Use brake cleaner as an alternative to acetone.
This gets rid of dirt and oil, so the temporary tire stickers adhere properly to the sidewalls.
Wear latex gloves if you don’t want to get your hands dirty.
1-2. Peel the paper backing away from the adhesive side of the sticker.
Flip the decal over, so you’re looking at the back side of the lettering. Carefully pull the kraft paper backing off and discard it.
Temporary tire stickers are also known as peel-and-stick tire stickers, which is really all there is to installing them.
1-3. Press the sticker into place on the tire sidewall.
Line up the sticker on your tire’s sidewall, sticky-side-down. When you’re happy with the placement, press it firmly onto the rubber.
Use the tire reference lines to make sure the decal is straight before you press it into place.
1-4. Peel the transfer film off the front side of the sticker.
Carefully and slowly peel up the semi-transparent transfer film. Press back down on the decal if any of the lettering starts to peel up while you pull the film off the front.
The lettering left behind is also known as the ink.
1-5. Apply light pressure to the sticker with your fingers.
Press down on the ink of each letter to ensure everything is securely stuck to the tire. Do this twice to be sure.
When you want to remove the sticker, peel up an edge with your fingers and roll the sticker off the rubber.
2. Permanent
2-1. Put latex gloves on to keep your hands clean.
This protects your hands from dirt, grease, adhesives, and chemicals. Keep the gloves on for the entire application process.
Permanent tire sticker kits typically come with gloves, tire decals, adhesive, and touch-up cleaner.
You can find permanent tire sticker kits at auto supply shops and online.
2-2. Scrub the tire sidewalls clean with acetone and a clean rag.
Place the rag over the top of a can of acetone and tip the can over for a few seconds to pour some acetone out onto the rag. Wipe down all the sidewall surfaces, using a clean part of the rag and more acetone as the rag gets dirty.
When the rag stops getting dirty while you’re wiping the rubber down, it’s clean.
As an alternative to acetone, use brake cleaner.
You might have to wipe down the tire sidewalls 10 times or more, depending on how dirty they are.
2-3. Wipe down the back of each decal with acetone.
Apply a bit of acetone to a clean rag. Gently wipe the rag across the back of each decal you plan to apply to remove any contaminants.
Set the decals face-down on a clean surface after you wipe them with acetone to keep the backsides clean.
2-4. Squeeze and spread an even layer of adhesive onto the back of each decal.
Gently squeeze a medium-sized bead out of the adhesive tube’s nozzle, following the form of each letter or shape on the decal. Use the tip of the nozzle to spread the adhesive out evenly on the back of each letter or shape.
If your decals are more than 3-4 letters long, start by applying adhesive to only about half the decal to ensure proper adhesion.
Don’t apply a thick coat of adhesive or it can end up oozing out from the edges when you apply the decals.
2-5. Position the decal on the tire and apply pressure for 30 seconds.
Line up the decal on the tire sidewall and set it into place. Press down on the lettering with both hands for 30 seconds to fix the decal onto the tire.
If you only applied adhesive to half the decal, go ahead and repeat the process to apply it to the other half and press that into place as well.
2-6. Remove the transfer film after 10 minutes.
Leave the tires and decals alone for 10 minutes, so the adhesive has time to set. Carefully and slowly peel the transfer film off the front of the decals and discard it.
If you see any air bubbles or areas that don’t look fully bonded, smooth them out by applying light pressure from the center out towards the edges of the decals.
2-7. Apply more adhesive and pressure to any edges that aren’t sealed.
Inspect all the edges of the decals to spot any that are lifting up. Squeeze a small amount of adhesive under any lifted edges and press them down onto the tire for 30 seconds to seal the decals.
If you squeeze out too much adhesive by accident, wipe it off with the provided touch-up cleaner or acetone and a clean rag.
2-8. Let the decals dry for 1-2 hours before you drive or wash your car.
This gives the adhesive time to fully dry and ensures proper adhesion of the decals. After an hour or 2, you can drive and wash your car as normal!
Avoid oil-based tire shines when you wash and detail your car. They can wreck the decals.
If you ever want to remove permanent tire stickers, peel them off with pliers. Wipe off any remaining adhesive with acetone and lightly sand the tire sidewall with 220-grit sandpaper.
Tips
It’s best to apply tire stickers in temperatures of 65 °F (18 °C) or above.[14]

Research source
You can use degreaser to clean your tires instead of acetone or brake cleaner.
Warnings
After you install your tire stickers, be careful not to scrape any curbs, which can scratch and ruin them. Be especially careful when you’re parking next to a curb.[15]

2,108 | How to Apply Tooth Gems | 1. Setup
1-1. Purchase a tooth gem kit.
There are a number of companies and websites that sell kits for applying your own tooth gems. You can choose from the available kits based on the types of gems you want.
Choose a kit that has been developed with or by dental professionals to avoid doing damage to your teeth.
At home tooth gem kits will allow gems to stay on for up to several weeks. If you want your gems to last significantly longer, have them applied professionally, by a dentist.
1-2. Test the UV lamp.
Your tooth gem kit should come with a small battery powered UV lamp. Take it out of the kit and test it. This may require taking the batteries out of the lamp and removing any paper or plastic that was placed between the batteries for shipment.
Always wear UV-protective eyewear, such as sunglasses, before testing or using a UV lamp.
Turn the lamp on to test it. It should create a blue-purple light when it is on.
Look in the kit for any additional instructions on using the particular UV lamp it contains.
1-3. Lay out the rest of the kit.
Applying tooth gems means working with a number of small objects in a short amount of time. Make sure to lay out all of the different tools, including the gems you'll use. This will allow you quick and easy access to the tools you'll need when you need them.
Lay everything out on a clean surface.
Make sure you have plenty of light so that you can see what you're doing.
1-4. Choose your gems.
Chances are that your kit has come with a variety of gems. Select which one(s) you will apply. Place them gem side up so you can see them and pick them up easily. You can put the other gems to the side or back in the kit.
If you plan to apply multiple gems, lay them all out now. You want to be able to apply them all in a short time while the glue is fresh.
1-5. Squeeze out some hand cream.
Your kit may not come with this, so you'll need to get it on your own. Place a small dollop of hand cream with your tools. You'll need it for getting the gem to stick to the applicator wand.
Choose a simple cream that won't overwhelm you with fragrance when it's near your face.
You only need a tiny amount of hand cream.
2. Prepping the Tooth
2-1. Brush your teeth.
Brush your teeth well as you normally would. Make sure to rinse with water afterward to remove any residue or remaining toothpaste. Wash your hands so that they'll be clean when they touch the gems and your teeth.
Tooth gems will not impede brushing or other dental hygiene once applied.
Tooth gems can only be applied to natural enamel teeth. They will not stick to implants or dentures.
Don't apply gems to damaged or cracked teeth, or teeth in need of other dental treatment.
2-2. Wash your hands.
You'll want clean hands since you'll be touching things that will be going in or near your mouth. If someone else is helping you apply the tooth gems, make sure they wash their hands as well.
Use soap and warm water to properly wash hands.
2-3. Expose the tooth.
The best way to do this is to smile in a way that shows your teeth. Once you've done this, take one of the provided cotton balls and place it between the tooth and the lip to keep the lip away from the tooth.
This is done to keep the tooth exposed and dry. If the lip still touches the tooth, use more pieces of cotton around it to pull the lip from the tooth.
Place another cotton roll between the upper and lower teeth and bite down on it.
2-4. Dry the tooth.
Use a piece of provided cotton to completely dry the tooth. This is a crucial step to making sure the gem will adhere to the tooth. If the tooth is not completely dry, it will not allow the glue to adhere.
3. Applying the Gem
3-1. Stir the glue.
Your kit should come with applicator wands for the glue. Use one to stir the glue. Check your specific kit's instructions for how to stir the glue and for how long.
Some kits say to stir the glue for five seconds.
3-2. Apply the glue to the tooth.
Now that the applicator wand has glue on it, place a dab of glue on the tooth. Place the glue in the spot where you want the gem to sit. You only need a little bit of glue, so don't overdo it.
Do this relatively quickly so that the glue is freshly stirred when it's applied.
Apply two coats or dabs of glue.
3-3. Apply the gem.
Dip the other end of the applicator into the small amount of hand cream that you laid out. The hand cream will help the gem stick to the applicator wand. You only need a small amount for the gem to stick to it.
Once you've dipped the applicator in the hand cream, touch it to the gem side of the gem. The flat side should stay clean and not touch the hand cream at all.
Once the gem is on the applicator wand, bring it to your tooth and press it into the place when you dabbed the glue.
The gem should stay on the tooth.You can move the gem into the right place if it isn't exactly where you want it. Use the wand to do this.
3-4. Use the UV lamp to set the glue.
Different kits will have different amounts of time that the glue needs to set for. However, four minutes may be a minimum amount of time. Hold the lamp as close to the tooth and gel as possible without touching the tooth.
Make sure you're wearing your UV protective eyewear, as is anyone else watching the procedure.
3-5. Clean up.
Your gem should now be affixed to the tooth. If your gem has been successfully adhered, it should be able to stay put through normal dental hygiene. Be sure to brush well under and around teh gem regularly, as that area can become more prone to decay if not taken care of.
Take all of the cotton out of your mouth.
When you want to remove the gem, there are a few options. If you want to take it off before it falls off naturally, you can sometimes use dental floss to help pull it off from the top down. Otherwise, make an appointment with your dentist, who will remove it the same way they remove dental brackets.
Tips
Use a mirror if you need one, or have a friend help you.
Warnings
Do not let glue come in contact with skin or gums.
Do not attempt to make your own tooth gems or to improvise these steps using any other products not included in tooth gem kits.

2,109 | How to Apply Toothpaste on Pimples | 1. Before You Try Toothpaste
Try other options if you can.
Although toothpaste can fight acne in a pinch, most dermatologist experts agree that they are not a good option, specially due to the irritation they can cause in your skin. There are other acne-fighting techniques that are more effective, such as:
Other Acne Fighting Methods
Effectiveness
Potential Issues
Acne Medication
Should achieve long-term results after 2-3 weeks.
Can be expensive; requires daily application and sometimes requires a prescription.
Hydrogen Peroxide
Easy, safe, and generally effective after 2-3 days.
May irritate skin when done repeatedly.
Sea Salt Bath
All natural; helps pimples disappear without scars
Requires wearing a mask, may not get rid of pimples directly.
Baking Soda
Regulates skin pH and helps remove excessive oil.
While it is good for healthy skin and fighting acne, it may not target specific pimples well.
Tea Tree Oil
All-natural; will aid with inflammation and dry skin. Can be applied in a variety of ways.
Not clinically tested; can be expensive.
Aspirin
Minimizes swelling and tenderness while weakening the pimple due to the salicylic acid.
Requires you to cut up aspirin and apply it for at least 15 minutes.
Banana Peels
Naturally protects and exfoliates skin from pimples, reducing inflammation with Vitamin A.
Not clinically tested; requires a fresh supply of banana peels.
Steam Cleaning
Warmth and moisture open up pores, making it easier to get rid of irritants and pus.
Minimizes pimples without damaging skin, but it may not entirely get rid of a pimple on its own.
Popping
Instantly removes pimples, works well with steam treatments and salt baths.
May lead to scarring if done improperly.
Hiding/Masking Pimples
Easy, quick, and prevents scarring.
Does not actually remove pimple or help keep skin healthy.
2. Choosing Toothpaste
2-1. Go for white-colored toothpaste.
When choosing a toothpaste for acne treatment, go for an all-white version, not a toothpaste with red, blue or green stripes. This is because the ingredients which help to dry out pimples - such as baking soda, hydrogen peroxide and triclosan - are contained in the white part of the toothpaste, while the colored sections may contain ingredients which will irritate the skin.
2-2. Avoid teeth-whitening toothpastes.
Whitening toothpastes contain bleaching agents (for making teeth whiter) which may actually bleach or burn the skin, causing patchiness. This is particularly true for people with darker skin tones - as the extra melanin in the skin makes it more reactive, and therefore more prone to marks and blemishes. People with fair skin may be less affected by such ingredients, however it is better to avoid whitening toothpaste regardless.
2-3. Steer clear of gel toothpastes.
Gel-type toothpastes have a different formulation than actual "paste" toothpastes, and so may be lacking the active ingredients necessary to effectively dry out pimples. Avoid using, as it will not do your skin any good.
2-4. Choose a toothpaste with a lower fluoride content.
Fluoride is added to over 95% of toothpastes in the U.S. as it helps to remove dental plaque and prevent gum disease. However, many people actually suffer from a mild topical allergy to fluoride, and it may cause dermatitis (a skin rash) if it comes in contact with the skin. For this reason, it is best to find a toothpaste with as low a fluoride content as possible (or fluoride-free, if you can find it) to minimize the risk of skin irritation.
2-5. Go organic.
Organic toothpastes are probably your best option when it comes to treating pimples. They contain no fluoride (unless it's naturally derived) and no nasty growth hormones, pesticides or other chemicals. On the other hand, they still contain the ingredients necessary for drying out pimples - such as baking soda and tea tree oil - with the addition of natural soothing and anti-bacterial substances like aloe, myrrh and eucalyptus oil.
3. Application
3-1. Wash your face
As with any spot treatment, it is important to apply the toothpaste to clean, dry skin. This ensures that there is no dirt or excess oil on the skin that may limit the effectiveness of the treatment. Wash your face well with warm water and your favorite cleanser, then pat dry to lock in moisture.
3-2. Squeeze a little toothpaste onto your finger.
Squeeze a little toothpaste onto your index finger or the back of your hand. A pea-sized amount should be enough, depending on the number of pimples you're treating.
3-3. Apply a small amount of toothpaste directly onto the pimple.
You will only need to apply a very small amount of toothpaste to the pimple for the treatment to be effective. Just make sure that you apply the toothpaste onto the pimple itself, not on the surrounding skin.
Toothpaste should never be spread all over the skin or used as a face mask. This is because the toothpaste works by drying out the skin, which can cause redness, irritation and peeling if applied anywhere but the pimple itself.
3-4. Leave the toothpaste on for two hours or overnight.
Leave the toothpaste to dry on the skin anywhere from two hours or overnight, for best results. However, if you have extremely sensitive skin, it may be best to remove the toothpaste after 15 minutes to half an hour, in order to gauge your skin's reaction. If it seems to be handling the toothpaste okay, you can leave it on for increasingly longer periods.
Some people advocate placing a band-aid over the pimple to help the toothpaste stay in place. However, this is not advisable, as it may cause the toothpaste to spread on the surrounding skin, leading to irritation, while also preventing the skin from breathing.
3-5. Gently wash off.
You can wash off the toothpaste with a damp washcloth, using small, circular motions. Make sure to do this very gently, as rubbing too hard might irritate or damage the skin. When all the toothpaste has been removed, splash your face with some warm water and pat dry with your hands or a clean, soft towel. You may want to apply a soothing moisturizer if your skin feels very tight and dry.
3-6. Repeat no more than four times a week.
As mentioned before, toothpaste may be irritating, especially if you have sensitive skin, so this is not a treatment you should be using multiple times a day, or more than four times a week. After applying the treatment once a day, 2-3 days in a row, you may notice an improvement in the size and color of the pimple. From that point on, you should allow the pimple to heal on its own.
4. Alternatives
4-1. Be aware that toothpaste is not a dermatologist-approved acne treatment.
Although using toothpaste as a quick-fix for pimples is a popular home remedy that's been around for years, there are very few dermatologists, if any, who would recommend it as a treatment. This is because toothpaste can be very drying on the skin, causing redness, irritation and sometimes even burns.
Regular toothpaste also contains none of the antibacterial ingredients that make over-the-counter creams more effective in treating and preventing pimples.
For this reason, toothpaste should only be used as an emergency treatment for pimples, and you should stop using it immediately if your skin is reacting badly. There are many other spot treatments you can try, as safer, more effective alternatives to toothpaste.
4-2. Try benzoyl peroxide.
Benzoyl peroxide is a great topical acne treatment that fights blackheads, whiteheads and larger pimples. It works by killing bacteria in the pores, preventing acne from forming in the first place. Though effective, benzoyl peroxide can cause the skin to become dry and peel, so it should be used sparingly. Benzoyl peroxide is available over-the counter, in creams, lotions, gels, medicated pads and cleansers.
4-3. Give salicylic acid a try.
Salicylic acid is another effective over-the-counter acne treatment. It works by reducing inflammation and redness, while also exfoliating the skin. Unlike most acne treatments, salicylic acid actually helps to soothe and calm the skin, making it a good choice for sensitive skin-types. Salicylic acid is available in varying strengths and in many different forms, so ask your pharmacist or dermatologist about which type is best for you.
4-4. Use sulfur.
Sulfur is an excellent pimple-buster for those with sensitive skin. It is extremely gentle, but also very effective at drying out pimples. It does this by drawing oil out of blocked pores and regulating sebum production. The only downside is that pure sulfur smells like rotten eggs, so you may need to use it in combination with another product in order to mask the smell.
4-5. Try tea tree oil
Tea tree oil is a pleasant-smelling, natural remedy for acne. It is an effective antiseptic, which helps to reduce the size of existing pimples, while also helping to prevent future breakouts. As it is an oil, tea tree will not strip skin of its natural moisture, making it a good option for those with very dry skin. Tea tree oil should be applied directly onto pimples, using a q-tip.
4-6. Apply crushed-up aspirin
The official name for aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid, which is closely related to salicylic acid, mentioned above. Aspirin is a powerful anti-inflammatory, making it an effective treatment for reducing the size and redness of pimples. You can either crush one or two aspirin and mix with a little water to form a paste, which you can apply directly to the pimples, or you can dissolve 5-8 tablets in a few drops of water to make a face mask that will reduce redness and leave skin glowing.
4-7. Use baking soda
Baking soda is one of the best and safest home remedies for acne treatment. It contains anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, as well as being an effective exfoliant. Simply mix a teaspoon of baking powder with a little water to form a paste. You can then apply the paste to individual pimples as a spot treatment, or apply it all over the face as a mask.
4-8. See a dermatologist.
Finding an acne treatment that works for you can be a process of trial and error, but if you continue to suffer from breakouts, you should consider seeing a dermatologist who can provide stronger prescription topical and oral acne medications. Getting rid of pimples once and for all will give you a major confidence boost and allow you to feel proud of your skin!
Tips
Avoid touching your face as much as possible. Touching or picking at pimples can cause them to become infected and it will take much longer to heal.
For best results leave it on overnight and wash it with warm water the next day.
Test a bit of the product on your skin before applying it on all your pimples.
Warnings
If your skin has any reaction to the toothpaste, stop using it right away, as overuse can burn the skin.

For this reason, it is best to find a toothpaste with as low a fluoride content as possible (or fluoride-free, if you can find it) to minimize the risk of skin irritation.\\n2-5. Go organic.\\nOrganic toothpastes are probably your best option when it comes to treating pimples. They contain no fluoride (unless it's naturally derived) and no nasty growth hormones, pesticides or other chemicals. On the other hand, they still contain the ingredients necessary for drying out pimples - such as baking soda and tea tree oil - with the addition of natural soothing and anti-bacterial substances like aloe, myrrh and eucalyptus oil.\\n3. Application\\n3-1. Wash your face\\nAs with any spot treatment, it is important to apply the toothpaste to clean, dry skin. This ensures that there is no dirt or excess oil on the skin that may limit the effectiveness of the treatment. Wash your face well with warm water and your favorite cleanser, then pat dry to lock in moisture.\\n3-2. Squeeze a little toothpaste onto your finger.\\nSqueeze a little toothpaste onto your index finger or the back of your hand. A pea-sized amount should be enough, depending on the number of pimples you're treating.\\n3-3. Apply a small amount of toothpaste directly onto the pimple.\\nYou will only need to apply a very small amount of toothpaste to the pimple for the treatment to be effective. Just make sure that you apply the toothpaste onto the pimple itself, not on the surrounding skin.\\nToothpaste should never be spread all over the skin or used as a face mask. This is because the toothpaste works by drying out the skin, which can cause redness, irritation and peeling if applied anywhere but the pimple itself.\\n3-4. Leave the toothpaste on for two hours or overnight.\\nLeave the toothpaste to dry on the skin anywhere from two hours or overnight, for best results. However, if you have extremely sensitive skin, it may be best to remove the toothpaste after 15 minutes to half an hour, in order to gauge your skin's reaction. If it seems to be handling the toothpaste okay, you can leave it on for increasingly longer periods.\\nSome people advocate placing a band-aid over the pimple to help the toothpaste stay in place. However, this is not advisable, as it may cause the toothpaste to spread on the surrounding skin, leading to irritation, while also preventing the skin from breathing.\\n3-5. Gently wash off.\\nYou can wash off the toothpaste with a damp washcloth, using small, circular motions. Make sure to do this very gently, as rubbing too hard might irritate or damage the skin. When all the toothpaste has been removed, splash your face with some warm water and pat dry with your hands or a clean, soft towel. You may want to apply a soothing moisturizer if your skin feels very tight and dry.\\n3-6. Repeat no more than four times a week.\\nAs mentioned before, toothpaste may be irritating, especially if you have sensitive skin, so this is not a treatment you should be using multiple times a day, or more than four times a week. After applying the treatment once a day, 2-3 days in a row, you may notice an improvement in the size and color of the pimple. From that point on, you should allow the pimple to heal on its own.\\n4. Alternatives\\n4-1. Be aware that toothpaste is not a dermatologist-approved acne treatment.\\nAlthough using toothpaste as a quick-fix for pimples is a popular home remedy that's been around for years, there are very few dermatologists, if any, who would recommend it as a treatment. This is because toothpaste can be very drying on the skin, causing redness, irritation and sometimes even burns.\\nRegular toothpaste also contains none of the antibacterial ingredients that make over-the-counter creams more effective in treating and preventing pimples.\\nFor this reason, toothpaste should only be used as an emergency treatment for pimples, and you should stop using it immediately if your skin is reacting badly. There are many other spot treatments you can try, as safer, more effective alternatives to toothpaste.\\n4-2. Try benzoyl peroxide.\\nBenzoyl peroxide is a great topical acne treatment that fights blackheads, whiteheads and larger pimples. It works by killing bacteria in the pores, preventing acne from forming in the first place. Though effective, benzoyl peroxide can cause the skin to become dry and peel, so it should be used sparingly. Benzoyl peroxide is available over-the counter, in creams, lotions, gels, medicated pads and cleansers.\\n4-3. Give salicylic acid a try.\\nSalicylic acid is another effective over-the-counter acne treatment. It works by reducing inflammation and redness, while also exfoliating the skin. Unlike most acne treatments, salicylic acid actually helps to soothe and calm the skin, making it a good choice for sensitive skin-types. Salicylic acid is available in varying strengths and in many different forms, so ask your pharmacist or dermatologist about which type is best for you.\\n4-4. Use sulfur.\\nSulfur is an excellent pimple-buster for those with sensitive skin. It is extremely gentle, but also very effective at drying out pimples. It does this by drawing oil out of blocked pores and regulating sebum production. The only downside is that pure sulfur smells like rotten eggs, so you may need to use it in combination with another product in order to mask the smell.\\n4-5. Try tea tree oil\\nTea tree oil is a pleasant-smelling, natural remedy for acne. It is an effective antiseptic, which helps to reduce the size of existing pimples, while also helping to prevent future breakouts. As it is an oil, tea tree will not strip skin of its natural moisture, making it a good option for those with very dry skin. Tea tree oil should be applied directly onto pimples, using a q-tip.\\n4-6. Apply crushed-up aspirin\\nThe official name for aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid, which is closely related to salicylic acid, mentioned above. Aspirin is a powerful anti-inflammatory, making it an effective treatment for reducing the size and redness of pimples. You can either crush one or two aspirin and mix with a little water to form a paste, which you can apply directly to the pimples, or you can dissolve 5-8 tablets in a few drops of water to make a face mask that will reduce redness and leave skin glowing.\\n4-7. Use baking soda\\nBaking soda is one of the best and safest home remedies for acne treatment. It contains anti-inflammatory and antiseptic properties, as well as being an effective exfoliant. Simply mix a teaspoon of baking powder with a little water to form a paste. You can then apply the paste to individual pimples as a spot treatment, or apply it all over the face as a mask.\\n4-8. See a dermatologist.\\nFinding an acne treatment that works for you can be a process of trial and error, but if you continue to suffer from breakouts, you should consider seeing a dermatologist who can provide stronger prescription topical and oral acne medications. Getting rid of pimples once and for all will give you a major confidence boost and allow you to feel proud of your skin!\\nTips\\nAvoid touching your face as much as possible. Touching or picking at pimples can cause them to become infected and it will take much longer to heal.\\nFor best results leave it on overnight and wash it with warm water the next day.\\nTest a bit of the product on your skin before applying it on all your pimples.\\nWarnings\\nIf your skin has any reaction to the toothpaste, stop using it right away, as overuse can burn the skin.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"If you're struggling with a breakout, you might feel embarrassed or frustrated.

2,110 | How to Apply Tuff Coat | 1. Preparing the Surface
1-1. Sand the surface with 80- to 100-grit sandpaper.
This is vital, unless you are working with metal or concrete, as it will remove old finishes and give you a rough surface to work on. Keep sanding the surface until all previous paint, varnish, or sealer is gone, and the texture is consistent.
You don't need to sand brand-new lumber that you just cut or bought from the store.
Sandpaper is the best, but you can speed the process up with a power sander.
1-2. Treat metal surfaces with an acid etch or a shot blast.
Prepare a solution that is 1 part muriatic acid and 1 part water. Clean your surface with this solution, then neutralize it. Rinse the solution off with plain water twice; make sure that you don't leave any acid behind, or the primer won't stick.
You can buy these products in a home improvement store.
Be sure to wear long pants, long sleeves, gloves, and safety goggles. Read all of the safety precautions on the label.
1-3. Degrease and acid etch concrete surfaces.
Remove any dry debris first. Apply a commercial degreaser to remove any surface oils. Clean the surface with a solution made from equal parts muriatic acid and water. Use a pressure washer to remove all traces of acid.
Ensure that concrete surfaces are fully cured before you use degreaser and acid. Most concrete needs to cure 28 days.
1-4. Fill in any imperfections with the appropriate filler.
If your surface has cracks or pits, you need to fill those in. What sort of filler you use depends on what the material is made from, so choose accordingly. Once you have the imperfection filled, you must let it dry and cure completely. Sand the filled-in area afterwards.
For example, if you are filling in wood, use wood putty. If you are filling in concrete, use spare concrete. For metal, try metal epoxy putty.
It's best to do this after the initial sanding, as the sanding process itself can reveal imperfections.
1-5. Clean the surface with mild dish soap and water, then let it dry.
You can also use laundry detergent and a scrub brush. Do not use a solvent-based cleaner, however. If you are worried that there might be some oily residue, clean it off using a commercial degreaser.
Make sure that your metal surface is free of rust. If there is any rust, treat it with a rust-removal product.
2. Applying the Primer
2-1. Choose a day when the temperature is between 55 and 95 °F (13 and 35 °C).
The humidity must be below 80 to 85%, otherwise the primer will not cure properly. For even better results, ensure that the weather is 5 °F (−15 °C) above the dew point.
You can find out the dew point by looking up the detailed weather report for your area.
Temperature and humidity are important, otherwise the primer may not cure properly.
2-2. Mask off the areas that you do not want to coat with Tuff Coat.
Use masking tape in small areas, such as trims and corners. If you need to mask off a larger area, cover that area with paper, cardboard, or plastic sheeting first, then seal the edges with masking tape.
You will remove the masking material at the very end, after you apply the last layer of Tuff Coat.
2-3. Choose a CP-10 or MP-10 Tuff Coat primer.
You must prime the surface before you apply the Tuff Coat, and you really should use 1 of the 2 primers made by Tuff Coat; this ensures that there won't be any chemical reactions. You will need about 1 1 gallon (3.8 L) of primer to cover 40 to 50 square feet (3.7 to 4.6 sq m).
Choose the CP-10 Water Based Epoxy Primer for concrete, wood, fiberglass, or previously painted surfaces. It is good for surfaces that will be exposed to heavy use and moisture.
Choose MP-10 Water-Based Metal Primer MP-10 if your surface is bare aluminum or steel.
You can find these products wherever Tuff Coat is sold, including online and home improvement stores.
2-4. Mix both parts of the CP-10 primer with a drill mixer.
The CP-10 primer comes in 2 parts: a resin and a hardener. Measure out equal amounts of each component, and pour them into a disposable container. Mix the epoxy with a drill mixer for 2 to 3 minutes at 250 to 500 RPM (rotations per minute), or until it is thoroughly blended and emulsified.
Mix parts A and B separately first, then mix them together.
The MP-10 metal primer is ready to use as-is. Simply open the can and stir it with a wooden paint stick.
Don't use a paint stick for the CP-10 primer. It is not enough; you need a lot more power and agitation.
2-5. Apply your chosen primer with a paint roller or a paintbrush.
Pour the primer into a paint tray if you are using a roller, or leave it in the can if you are using a paintbrush. Apply 1 coat of the primer to the entire surface.
If you are using a paint roller, choose one with a ⁄8 in (0.95 cm) nap.
Work quickly. The resin will start to set in about 90 minutes.
2-6. Allow the primer to cure according to the instructions.
CP-10 primer is ready in about 6 to 48 hours. MP-10 is ready to use in 1 to 4 hours, but it can take as long as 48 hours. Do not wait longer than 48 hours, however, otherwise you will have to sand the surface and re-coat it.
Do not remove the masking material yet.
3. Preparing the Tuff Coat
3-1. Purchase enough Tuff Coat to cover your surface.
You will need 1 gallon (3.8 L) of Tuff Coat to cover 40 to 50 square feet (3.7 to 4.6 sq m). You will need 2 coats of Tuff Coat for most applications, so multiply your calculation by 2.
Tuff Coat is typically sold in 1-gallon (3.8-L) and 5-gallon (18.9-L) buckets.
For industrial purposes, you will need 1 gallon (3.8-L) for every 35 square feet (3.3 sq m), and 3 coats total.
3-2. Protect your skin, clothing, and work space.
Tuff Coat is permanent once it dries. Wear old clothing and shoes that you won't mind ruining. Next, pull on a pair of gloves to protect your hands. It would be a good idea to wear some safety goggles as well.
Put some cardboard, newspaper, or plastic under the can of Tuff Coat to catch any spills.
3-3. Have soap, water, and cloths to wipe up spills.
Tuff Coat is easy to get out while it is wet, but once it dries, it is permanent. It dries to the touch within 30 minutes, so you will need to take care of any spills as soon as they happen.
3-4. Mix the Tuff Coat with a drill mixer until it looks like pancake batter.
Open your can of Tuff Coat and turn the drill mixer on. Slowly lower the mixer into the paint, then continue to submerge it as it mixes the paint. Keep mixing the paint for a few minutes, until it gains a batter-like consistency.
Use a drill mixer that has about 250 to 500 RPM (rotations per minute) and a metal mixing blade. Don't use a paint stick; it won't create enough agitation.
Don't dip the drill mixer straight to the bottom right off the bat. Lower it gradually towards the bottom.
How long this takes depends on the drill and drill speed. Just keep mixing it until it looks like pancake batter.
4. Using a Roller to Apply Tuff Coat
4-1. Dampen a Tuff Coat paint roller with water, then dip it into Tuff Coat.
If you want to, you can pour the Tuff Coat into a paint pan first, but this really is not necessary. Dampen the roller with plain water first, then dip it into the Tuff Coat, making sure to saturate it completely.
Use a paint roller made by Tuff Coat. It's designed to work with the chemicals in Tuff Coat; other paint rollers will not pick up and spread the Tuff Coat.
4-2. Apply 4 to 5 vertical strokes to your surface.
Dip the roller into the Tuff Coat, then roll it across your surface, top-to-bottom, then bottom-to-top. Dip it into the paint again, and make another vertical stroke, overlapping the first one by a little. Make 4 to 5 vertical rows, then stop.
Re-dip the roller into the paint after each vertical stroke.
4-3. Roll your roller horizontally across your vertical strokes.
Don't apply any Tuff Coat this time. Simply roll the roller back and forth across the first 4 or 5 vertical strokes. This will help distribute the Tuff Coat better and give you a smoother finish.
4-4. Continue to paint your surface in the same manner until it is all covered.
Apply 4 to 5 vertical strokes, dipping the roller into the Tuff Coat after each one. Go back over the vertical strokes with horizontal strokes. Once your surface is covered, stop.
4-5. Wait about 30 minutes, then apply a second coat, if needed.
Whether or not you apply a second coat is up to you. It will take more time and use more materials, but it will also make the surface more durable. When doing a second coat, start with horizontal strokes instead. Go back over them with vertical strokes.
You only need to wait until the Tuff Coat is dry to the touch before applying a second coat. This will take about 30 minutes.
4-6. Allow the Tuff Coat to dry and cure completely.
The paint will be dry and ready for light wear after 10 to 12 hours, but it would be best to wait 24 hours. It will cure completely after 5 to 7 days.
5. Using a Sprayer to Apply Tuff Coat
5-1. Fill the spray gun with some water, then spray the water out.
This is known as "priming" and it will prepare the spray gun for the Tuff Coat. Don't actually spray the water onto the surface, however; spray it away from the surface onto something that can get wet.
For best results, set the pressure to at least 40 psi. The spray gun will make a slight spitting or sputtering sound; this is normal.
5-2. Fill the spray gun with Tuff Coat.
Where you pour the Tuff Coat depends on the type of sprayer that you are using; you should pour the Tuff Coat into the same tank that you'd pour the paint.
For best results, let the Tuff Coat reach room temperature before proceeding.
5-3. Apply the Tuff Coat 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away from the surface.
Do a few test squirts away from the surface first to ensure that everything is working properly. Next, hold the nozzle 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away from the surface at a 90-degree angle. Apply a light, even coat all over the surface.
Don't apply a thick coat. It is better to do a light, even coat.
Wipe off any excess Tuff Coat with a cloth and water immediately.
5-4. Wait about 30 minutes, then apply a second coat.
How long this takes depends on the temperature and humidity. Once the surface feels dry, apply a second coat using the same technique: at a 90-degree angle, from 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away.
5-5. Let the Tuff Coat dry and cure completely.
After about 10 to 12 hours, the paint will be ready for light wear. It will be completely dry after 24 hours. You will need to wait 5 to 7 days for it to cure completely, however.

If you are worried that there might be some oily residue, clean it off using a commercial degreaser.\\nMake sure that your metal surface is free of rust. If there is any rust, treat it with a rust-removal product.\\n2. Applying the Primer\\n2-1. Choose a day when the temperature is between 55 and 95 °F (13 and 35 °C).\\nThe humidity must be below 80 to 85%, otherwise the primer will not cure properly. For even better results, ensure that the weather is 5 °F (−15 °C) above the dew point.\\nYou can find out the dew point by looking up the detailed weather report for your area.\\nTemperature and humidity are important, otherwise the primer may not cure properly.\\n2-2. Mask off the areas that you do not want to coat with Tuff Coat.\\nUse masking tape in small areas, such as trims and corners. If you need to mask off a larger area, cover that area with paper, cardboard, or plastic sheeting first, then seal the edges with masking tape.\\nYou will remove the masking material at the very end, after you apply the last layer of Tuff Coat.\\n2-3. Choose a CP-10 or MP-10 Tuff Coat primer.\\nYou must prime the surface before you apply the Tuff Coat, and you really should use 1 of the 2 primers made by Tuff Coat; this ensures that there won't be any chemical reactions. You will need about 1 1 gallon (3.8 L) of primer to cover 40 to 50 square feet (3.7 to 4.6 sq m).\\nChoose the CP-10 Water Based Epoxy Primer for concrete, wood, fiberglass, or previously painted surfaces. It is good for surfaces that will be exposed to heavy use and moisture.\\nChoose MP-10 Water-Based Metal Primer MP-10 if your surface is bare aluminum or steel.\\nYou can find these products wherever Tuff Coat is sold, including online and home improvement stores.\\n2-4. Mix both parts of the CP-10 primer with a drill mixer.\\nThe CP-10 primer comes in 2 parts: a resin and a hardener. Measure out equal amounts of each component, and pour them into a disposable container. Mix the epoxy with a drill mixer for 2 to 3 minutes at 250 to 500 RPM (rotations per minute), or until it is thoroughly blended and emulsified.\\nMix parts A and B separately first, then mix them together.\\nThe MP-10 metal primer is ready to use as-is. Simply open the can and stir it with a wooden paint stick.\\nDon't use a paint stick for the CP-10 primer. It is not enough; you need a lot more power and agitation.\\n2-5. Apply your chosen primer with a paint roller or a paintbrush.\\nPour the primer into a paint tray if you are using a roller, or leave it in the can if you are using a paintbrush. Apply 1 coat of the primer to the entire surface.\\nIf you are using a paint roller, choose one with a ⁄8 in (0.95 cm) nap.\\nWork quickly. The resin will start to set in about 90 minutes.\\n2-6. Allow the primer to cure according to the instructions.\\nCP-10 primer is ready in about 6 to 48 hours. MP-10 is ready to use in 1 to 4 hours, but it can take as long as 48 hours. Do not wait longer than 48 hours, however, otherwise you will have to sand the surface and re-coat it.\\nDo not remove the masking material yet.\\n3. Preparing the Tuff Coat\\n3-1. Purchase enough Tuff Coat to cover your surface.\\nYou will need 1 gallon (3.8 L) of Tuff Coat to cover 40 to 50 square feet (3.7 to 4.6 sq m). You will need 2 coats of Tuff Coat for most applications, so multiply your calculation by 2.\\nTuff Coat is typically sold in 1-gallon (3.8-L) and 5-gallon (18.9-L) buckets.\\nFor industrial purposes, you will need 1 gallon (3.8-L) for every 35 square feet (3.3 sq m), and 3 coats total.\\n3-2. Protect your skin, clothing, and work space.\\nTuff Coat is permanent once it dries. Wear old clothing and shoes that you won't mind ruining. Next, pull on a pair of gloves to protect your hands. It would be a good idea to wear some safety goggles as well.\\nPut some cardboard, newspaper, or plastic under the can of Tuff Coat to catch any spills.\\n3-3. Have soap, water, and cloths to wipe up spills.\\nTuff Coat is easy to get out while it is wet, but once it dries, it is permanent. It dries to the touch within 30 minutes, so you will need to take care of any spills as soon as they happen.\\n3-4. Mix the Tuff Coat with a drill mixer until it looks like pancake batter.\\nOpen your can of Tuff Coat and turn the drill mixer on. Slowly lower the mixer into the paint, then continue to submerge it as it mixes the paint. Keep mixing the paint for a few minutes, until it gains a batter-like consistency.\\nUse a drill mixer that has about 250 to 500 RPM (rotations per minute) and a metal mixing blade. Don't use a paint stick; it won't create enough agitation.\\nDon't dip the drill mixer straight to the bottom right off the bat. Lower it gradually towards the bottom.\\nHow long this takes depends on the drill and drill speed. Just keep mixing it until it looks like pancake batter.\\n4. Using a Roller to Apply Tuff Coat\\n4-1. Dampen a Tuff Coat paint roller with water, then dip it into Tuff Coat.\\nIf you want to, you can pour the Tuff Coat into a paint pan first, but this really is not necessary. Dampen the roller with plain water first, then dip it into the Tuff Coat, making sure to saturate it completely.\\nUse a paint roller made by Tuff Coat. It's designed to work with the chemicals in Tuff Coat; other paint rollers will not pick up and spread the Tuff Coat.\\n4-2. Apply 4 to 5 vertical strokes to your surface.\\nDip the roller into the Tuff Coat, then roll it across your surface, top-to-bottom, then bottom-to-top. Dip it into the paint again, and make another vertical stroke, overlapping the first one by a little. Make 4 to 5 vertical rows, then stop.\\nRe-dip the roller into the paint after each vertical stroke.\\n4-3. Roll your roller horizontally across your vertical strokes.\\nDon't apply any Tuff Coat this time. Simply roll the roller back and forth across the first 4 or 5 vertical strokes. This will help distribute the Tuff Coat better and give you a smoother finish.\\n4-4. Continue to paint your surface in the same manner until it is all covered.\\nApply 4 to 5 vertical strokes, dipping the roller into the Tuff Coat after each one. Go back over the vertical strokes with horizontal strokes. Once your surface is covered, stop.\\n4-5. Wait about 30 minutes, then apply a second coat, if needed.\\nWhether or not you apply a second coat is up to you. It will take more time and use more materials, but it will also make the surface more durable. When doing a second coat, start with horizontal strokes instead. Go back over them with vertical strokes.\\nYou only need to wait until the Tuff Coat is dry to the touch before applying a second coat. This will take about 30 minutes.\\n4-6. Allow the Tuff Coat to dry and cure completely.\\nThe paint will be dry and ready for light wear after 10 to 12 hours, but it would be best to wait 24 hours. It will cure completely after 5 to 7 days.\\n5. Using a Sprayer to Apply Tuff Coat\\n5-1. Fill the spray gun with some water, then spray the water out.\\nThis is known as \\\"priming\\\" and it will prepare the spray gun for the Tuff Coat. Don't actually spray the water onto the surface, however; spray it away from the surface onto something that can get wet.\\nFor best results, set the pressure to at least 40 psi. The spray gun will make a slight spitting or sputtering sound; this is normal.\\n5-2. Fill the spray gun with Tuff Coat.\\nWhere you pour the Tuff Coat depends on the type of sprayer that you are using; you should pour the Tuff Coat into the same tank that you'd pour the paint.\\nFor best results, let the Tuff Coat reach room temperature before proceeding.\\n5-3. Apply the Tuff Coat 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away from the surface.\\nDo a few test squirts away from the surface first to ensure that everything is working properly. Next, hold the nozzle 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away from the surface at a 90-degree angle. Apply a light, even coat all over the surface.\\nDon't apply a thick coat. It is better to do a light, even coat.\\nWipe off any excess Tuff Coat with a cloth and water immediately.\\n5-4. Wait about 30 minutes, then apply a second coat.\\nHow long this takes depends on the temperature and humidity. Once the surface feels dry, apply a second coat using the same technique: at a 90-degree angle, from 12 to 24 in (30 to 61 cm) away.\\n5-5. Let the Tuff Coat dry and cure completely.\\nAfter about 10 to 12 hours, the paint will be ready for light wear. It will be completely dry after 24 hours. You will need to wait 5 to 7 days for it to cure completely, however.\\nTips\\nYou can rent many of the necessary tools from the home improvement store. The prices will vary, depending on the location.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Tuff Coat is a type of rubberized coating that you can apply to all sorts of surfaces, including metal, concrete, and wood.

2,111 | How to Apply Tung Oil | 1. Preparing Your Work Surface
1-1. Clean the wood surface with a damp cloth.
Wet the cloth with warm water and wring out the excess moisture. Wipe down the wood using long, linear strokes or smooth circles, working against the grain. When you’re done, give the surface a few minutes to dry to the touch.
Your wood surface needs to be free of dust, dirt, oil and other messes in order for the tung oil to set up properly.
A good wipedown also serves to raise the wood grain, which makes sanding more effective and results in a smoother overall finish.
1-2. Strip any existing finish with trisodium phosphate (TSP).
If you’re working with an object that’s already treated with a varnish or lacquer, you’ll need to remove it before you can apply the tung oil. Mix 2 tablespoons (29.6 ml) of TSP into 1 gallon (3.8 l) of water and use a brush or sponge to spread the liquid over the entire surface. Avoid handling the surface until it’s had time to dry.
TSP is a highly-effective deep cleaner, but it’s also highly toxic. Always make it a point to wear long-sleeved clothing, rubber gloves, and a respirator or facemask anytime you’re working with the chemical.
It’s also a good idea to do your stripping in an area with good ventilation (or outside, if possible) to prevent the fumes from becoming overpowering.
1-3. Sand the surface thoroughly.
Run a square of high-grit sandpaper (around 120-grit or finer) over the outer face of the wood using tight circles. This will smooth out imperfections and inconsistencies in the grain. Be sure to sand each and every part of the item you’ll be finishing, including corners, edges, and recessed nooks.
Sanding is necessary to help the first layer of tung oil settle into the wood.
1-4. Wipe down the sanded wood.
Go over the surface with your cleaning cloth once more to sweep away the dust generated by sanding. The surface should be entirely free of debris before you begin applying the oil. If the wood is damp, allow it to dry to the touch before proceeding.
Use a thin dry brush to coax stubborn particles out of creases and grooves.
Any dust left behind may create imperfections in the finish.
1-5. Cover your work area with a dropcloth or tarp.
This extra layer will serve as a protective buffer between the wood and its surrounding surfaces. With it in place, you'll be able to work quickly and efficiently without worrying about making an oily mess. When you're finished, simply take your cover outside and spray it off.
You can also stretch out a few sheets of newspaper if you don't have a tarp or dropcloth on hand.
Rich natural oils like tung oil can leave permanent stains if they find their way onto absorbent materials.
2. Coating the Wood
2-1. Thin the tung oil with a solvent.
Stir together equal parts oil and mineral spirits, turpentine, or organic citrus solvent in a spacious container. Cutting the oil with a solvent makes it easier to apply in multiple thin coats, which will in turn provide a glossier finish and greater durability than a single thick one.
You shouldn’t need more than a single canister of tung oil for most small projects—⁄4 gallon (0.95 l) can cover up to 100 square feet of unfinished wood.
Don’t thin tung oil if you’re planning on treating surfaces that will be used for culinary purposes, like countertops, cutting boards, and spoons. While the oil itself is naturally non-toxic, chemical solvents can leach into foods that come into contact with the surface, making them harmful to ingest.
2-2. Use a clean, lint-free rag to soak up a small amount of tung oil.
A simple way to do this without making a mess is to press the folded rag over the mouth of the bottle, then turn the bottle upside down. The oil that escapes will create a neat, round spot and keep your hands clean.
By adding the oil to a rag, you’ll have much more control over where the finish ends up than you would by pouring it directly onto the wood itself.
You can also use a wide-tipped bristle or sponge brush to apply tung oil.
2-3. Rub the oil onto the wood in the direction of the grain.
Going with the grain brings out more of its subtle natural patterns. Aim for even coverage across the entire surface and continue polishing the wood continuously until the initial slickness and shine begin to disappear. Don’t forget to go over the edges, corners, legs, and underside of the item, as well.
You also have the option of applying a little oil to the insides of drawers and cabinet doors if you’d prefer a more uniform look.
2-4. Apply the oil liberally.
Don’t be afraid to go a little heavy for your first coat. Unfinished wood absorbs a lot of oil, so you may be surprised by how little is left later on. When you’re finished, the wood should look slick and wet, but there shouldn’t be any pools of standing oil remaining on the surface.
Be careful not to oversaturate the wood with a single application. You’ll get better results by layering on several coats.
2-5. Let the tung oil sit for at least half an hour.
As it sits, it will begin to penetrate deep into the wood grain, where it will eventually solidify. Avoid touching the wet finish in the meantime.
If possible, leave the item alone for 1-2 full hours. More resting time means better absorption.
Any accidental scratches or dents made while the tung oil is still fresh may be noticeable in the completed finish.
2-6. Wipe off the excess oil.
After the oil has had plenty of time to soak in, glide a clean rag over the surface of the item to clear away any remaining traces. Take a look at the new finish. Depending on the item’s intended use and the depth of color you’re going for, you may decide to stop there or continue adding coats for further protection.
Keep an eye out for wet spots glistening in grooves and depressions—these areas can be easy to overlook.
3. Achieving a More Durable Finish
3-1. Let the wood rest for 3-7 days between coats.
Tung oil cures slowly. For best results, be prepared to wait up to a week after each application to ensure that the followup coat bonds securely to the previous one. That way, it will have a chance to harden separately.
Most projects will require between 4-6 individual coats. The more coats you put on, the darker and more lustrous the finish will become and the more protected it will be.
Treating wood with tung oil is an ongoing process that may take several days or weeks, not a one-and-done overnight project. Take your time and focus on applying each coat correctly.
3-2. Sand the wood lightly before applying the next coat.
When you're ready to brush on more oil, make a few passes over the surface with an ultra-fine waterproof sandpaper (320-600 grit sandpaper or 0000 grade steel wool is ideal) and gently buff the topcoat in all directions. The goal is to scuff it up just enough to help the next coat stick. Remember to dust off the wood thoroughly after sanding.
Use a light touch to avoid sanding through the finish.
Repeated sanding will prepare each layer of tung oil to accept the next coat by forming tiny “teeth” for the fresh oil to fill in.
3-3. Allow several weeks for the oil to cure completely.
Once you’ve applied the desired number of coats, put the item away so the finish can set up. Be sure to wait at least 10-15 days before exposing the wood to moisture or pressure. At the end of that time, the oil will have solidified enough for the item to be used carefully.
Newly-finished wood will cure fastest when stored in a cool, dry environment.
Tips
Touch up aging finishes by brushing on a fresh coat of tung oil once every 1-2 years.
When finishing furniture, don't forget to remove or tape off any hardware or other accessories you don't want get oil on.
Tung oil is an extremely versatile finish that offers resistance to moisture, scratches, mold, bacteria, fading, and discoloration without sacrificing strength or flexibility.
Warnings
Dispose of oil-soaked rags and other materials carefully. They will be highly flammable.

The surface should be entirely free of debris before you begin applying the oil. If the wood is damp, allow it to dry to the touch before proceeding.\\nUse a thin dry brush to coax stubborn particles out of creases and grooves.\\nAny dust left behind may create imperfections in the finish.\\n1-5. Cover your work area with a dropcloth or tarp.\\nThis extra layer will serve as a protective buffer between the wood and its surrounding surfaces. With it in place, you'll be able to work quickly and efficiently without worrying about making an oily mess. When you're finished, simply take your cover outside and spray it off.\\nYou can also stretch out a few sheets of newspaper if you don't have a tarp or dropcloth on hand.\\nRich natural oils like tung oil can leave permanent stains if they find their way onto absorbent materials.\\n2. Coating the Wood\\n2-1. Thin the tung oil with a solvent.\\nStir together equal parts oil and mineral spirits, turpentine, or organic citrus solvent in a spacious container. Cutting the oil with a solvent makes it easier to apply in multiple thin coats, which will in turn provide a glossier finish and greater durability than a single thick one.\\nYou shouldn’t need more than a single canister of tung oil for most small projects—⁄4 gallon (0.95 l) can cover up to 100 square feet of unfinished wood.\\nDon’t thin tung oil if you’re planning on treating surfaces that will be used for culinary purposes, like countertops, cutting boards, and spoons. While the oil itself is naturally non-toxic, chemical solvents can leach into foods that come into contact with the surface, making them harmful to ingest.\\n2-2. Use a clean, lint-free rag to soak up a small amount of tung oil.\\nA simple way to do this without making a mess is to press the folded rag over the mouth of the bottle, then turn the bottle upside down. The oil that escapes will create a neat, round spot and keep your hands clean.\\nBy adding the oil to a rag, you’ll have much more control over where the finish ends up than you would by pouring it directly onto the wood itself.\\nYou can also use a wide-tipped bristle or sponge brush to apply tung oil.\\n2-3. Rub the oil onto the wood in the direction of the grain.\\nGoing with the grain brings out more of its subtle natural patterns. Aim for even coverage across the entire surface and continue polishing the wood continuously until the initial slickness and shine begin to disappear. Don’t forget to go over the edges, corners, legs, and underside of the item, as well.\\nYou also have the option of applying a little oil to the insides of drawers and cabinet doors if you’d prefer a more uniform look.\\n2-4. Apply the oil liberally.\\nDon’t be afraid to go a little heavy for your first coat. Unfinished wood absorbs a lot of oil, so you may be surprised by how little is left later on. When you’re finished, the wood should look slick and wet, but there shouldn’t be any pools of standing oil remaining on the surface.\\nBe careful not to oversaturate the wood with a single application. You’ll get better results by layering on several coats.\\n2-5. Let the tung oil sit for at least half an hour.\\nAs it sits, it will begin to penetrate deep into the wood grain, where it will eventually solidify. Avoid touching the wet finish in the meantime.\\nIf possible, leave the item alone for 1-2 full hours. More resting time means better absorption.\\nAny accidental scratches or dents made while the tung oil is still fresh may be noticeable in the completed finish.\\n2-6. Wipe off the excess oil.\\nAfter the oil has had plenty of time to soak in, glide a clean rag over the surface of the item to clear away any remaining traces. Take a look at the new finish. Depending on the item’s intended use and the depth of color you’re going for, you may decide to stop there or continue adding coats for further protection.\\nKeep an eye out for wet spots glistening in grooves and depressions—these areas can be easy to overlook.\\n3. Achieving a More Durable Finish\\n3-1. Let the wood rest for 3-7 days between coats.\\nTung oil cures slowly. For best results, be prepared to wait up to a week after each application to ensure that the followup coat bonds securely to the previous one. That way, it will have a chance to harden separately.\\nMost projects will require between 4-6 individual coats. The more coats you put on, the darker and more lustrous the finish will become and the more protected it will be.\\nTreating wood with tung oil is an ongoing process that may take several days or weeks, not a one-and-done overnight project. Take your time and focus on applying each coat correctly.\\n3-2. Sand the wood lightly before applying the next coat.\\nWhen you're ready to brush on more oil, make a few passes over the surface with an ultra-fine waterproof sandpaper (320-600 grit sandpaper or 0000 grade steel wool is ideal) and gently buff the topcoat in all directions. The goal is to scuff it up just enough to help the next coat stick. Remember to dust off the wood thoroughly after sanding.\\nUse a light touch to avoid sanding through the finish.\\nRepeated sanding will prepare each layer of tung oil to accept the next coat by forming tiny “teeth” for the fresh oil to fill in.\\n3-3. Allow several weeks for the oil to cure completely.\\nOnce you’ve applied the desired number of coats, put the item away so the finish can set up. Be sure to wait at least 10-15 days before exposing the wood to moisture or pressure. At the end of that time, the oil will have solidified enough for the item to be used carefully.\\nNewly-finished wood will cure fastest when stored in a cool, dry environment.\\nTips\\nTouch up aging finishes by brushing on a fresh coat of tung oil once every 1-2 years.\\nWhen finishing furniture, don't forget to remove or tape off any hardware or other accessories you don't want get oil on.\\nTung oil is an extremely versatile finish that offers resistance to moisture, scratches, mold, bacteria, fading, and discoloration without sacrificing strength or flexibility.\\nWarnings\\nDispose of oil-soaked rags and other materials carefully. They will be highly flammable.\\n\", \"简要回答\": \"Tung oil is a type of natural drying oil commonly used as a finish in woodworking projects. When applied to a raw surface, the oil hardens to protect and add luster to the wood. After sanding and cleaning the wood surface to remove any previous finish, spread the oil along the grain pattern using a clean, lint-free rag. Allow the oil to soak into the surface for an hour, then sand lightly to promote adhesion. Wait a 3-7 days to apply followup coats.

2,112 | How to Apply Tween Makeup | 1. Opting for a Basic and a Quick Style
1-1. Obtain the cosmetics.
This includes mascara, a subtle eyeshadow that matches the color of your skin, lip gloss, BB cream, concealer and blush or bronzer. You can choose either lip gloss or lipstick, but please avoid using both. Keep in mind that lipstick lasts much longer and looks more sophisticated and subtle, while lip gloss is more moisturizing, but does not last as long. However, lip gloss is easier to slather on at school, whereas a compact mirror is often required for applying lipstick.
Use eyeliner if your eyes are smaller because eyeliners make the eye look slightly bigger apart from enhancing its beauty.
Remember that less is always more. When buying makeup for a tween, you could introduce products without color pigment, but that still feel like makeup.
1-2. Lightly apply taupe.
This is the light sparkly brown, light pink, light purple, so basically pastels, lip gloss and, if you need it, foundation.
1-3. Apply some facial lotion, just to get your face non-oily and clean.
1-4. Apply a base for your eyes.
1-5. Take your light pink and apply on your lower lid.
After that, add some taupe or brown on top of it.
1-6. Use mascara.
Lightly apply some on just your upper lashes. While applying mascara be very careful because if you rush, it may end up where you don't want it and you could poke your eye.
1-7. Apply a nude pink, shimmery clear, or pastel pink/red to your lips.
Lip liner is a nice touch, but you do not need it.
2. Preparing Your Face
2-1. Wash your face.
This is an obvious thing to do, but many people cake on makeup without removing old makeup or clearing their face. Use an exfoliating cleanser for your specific skin type if you like.
2-2. Pluck hair.
Clean up or shape eyebrows and clean your upper lips. For a less painful experience, get a tube of kids' baby teething pain reliever from Orajel. Apply it to the area that you want to pluck, and pluck away the tiny hairs.
2-3. Pull your hair back.
You don't need to have stray locks stuck in your makeup. You can style it after applying makeup if you wish.
3. Applying Makeup
3-1. Apply primer that suits your skin tone.
Read the article How to determine skin tone for more information. You could wear BB cream if you need more coverage.
Use gel based or liquid foundation for dry skin.
Use oil free foundation or powder based one for oily skin.
Opt for gel based or experiment with the types for mixed skin type.
3-2. Apply a triangle of concealer under your eyes and on blemishes.
Blend it into the area.
3-3. Apply eyeliner.
Do not use too much because it may not look natural. A popular style is to add a wing to the eyeliner. If you want a more natural look, only line along the lash line.
3-4. Apply mascara.
Be careful to apply only to the lashes. You can place a card behind your lashes to avoid getting it on your eyelid or crease. Move the wand slowly outward to avoid clumping.
3-5. Use a moisturizing lip balm.
To have soft, natural-looking lips, use lip balm. If you want a rosy bit of color, use a tinted lip balm.
3-6. Add a little bit of lip gloss.
This is optional, but lip gloss is simple and not too dramatic.
Tips
If you're washing off mascara and eyeliner, then you use oil. Oil helps it not to smear and come off clean.
When applying mascara, remember to blink into it!
If you want a more natural look, just use a bit of foundation, concealer, mascara and lip gloss.
Warnings
Make sure your tweezers are clean to avoid a skin infection.
Remember to take off your makeup before going to bed so as to not damage your skin. You can use makeup wipes for this.
Avoid unnatural makeup colors that are too dramatic for everyday use.
Make sure it's okay with your parents before you try this.
