Your face tells a story to the world. I am a wife, mother, daughter, friend
and business woman. I spend time with my family, go on dates with my
husband, travel, spend a lot of time at the office, visit friends, practice my
religion, exercise and enjoy some quality “me” time when I can…
In reality, at times each of us has to fulfil various roles and for each role
and activity we look, dress and act differently. We put on different faces
and personalities and accessories.
Changing into different personas and roles will only depend on subtle
changes, like accentuating your eyes or your lips (never both), as well as
the accessories you decide to add, such as jewellery or changing your
hairstyle.
There are no quick fixes for make-up, just like there are no instant diets.
Some things in life are worth investing in. Investing in yourself will initially
take a bit of time, but give it your best, practice and enjoy looking
beautiful. By doing so, you will become a professional in your own make-
up regime and cut make-up time in half with exactly the same outcome!

Blend, blend, blend - the number one secret to perfect make-up is to blend! No harsh lines or

Know your flaws and strengths - if a certain facial feature leaves you feeling self-conscious,
7 you can create an optical illusion with make-up to hide it. In the make-up world, this is referred
to as contouring and highlighting. Using lighter and darker foundations or concealers, you
can create shadows to make the parts you want to hide appear smaller or less obvious and
accentuate your best features by highlighting and drawing attention to them.
