Years ago, hanging out with my girlfriends, I learned a thing or two about makeup. One friend, a Marilyn Monroe look-alike, had a saying: “No girl is too pretty for makeup.” While navigating the overwhelming cosmetics world can be daunting, Terri Apanasewicz of P3 Beauty offers expert guidance for achieving a natural, flawless complexion.
With a client roster including Cindy Crawford, Heidi Klum, and Gisele Bundchen, Terri’s P3 Beauty brings celebrity makeup artistry directly to your home. Fortunately, she shared some of her top tips:
* **Mineral Powder Foundation:** Apply concealer first, set with translucent powder, then finish with mineral powder. This creates a barrier, preventing the mineral powder from darkening the concealer.
* **Eyeliner Longevity:** After applying eyeliner, smudge it with a brush and set it with a powder eyeshadow of the same color. This enhances the eye and extends the liner’s wear.
* **Lip Color Without the Lipstick Feel:** Try a lip stain like Sheer or Shimmering stains from Liptini. Available in various colors, apply the stain and finish with a gloss. While the gloss might fade, the stain will last, even after eating.
These tips from Terri provide simple, effective strategies for anyone seeking a polished makeup look.
