Go Ahead And Break These Six Beauty Rules
By Janet Martin 

When it comes to beauty standards, what your mother may have told you when you were six may not be applicable today. A lot of beauty rules during your mother's time may not be applicable nowadays. Do not be left behind holding on to beauty laws of another era! Read on and discover what former beauty laws are no longer relevant at present:

Lip Liner Is A Must

Years ago, women should never wear lipstick without a lip liner. Nowadays, however, lipsticks are creamier and easier to apply so you really do not have to use a lip liner to guide you. Since the au naturale look is in today, using a lip liner of different hue from your lipstick shade is definitely a no-no.

No To Blue Eye Shadow

Try renting an '80s movie and you will see that women during that time loved the bright blue eye shadow. Thus, beauty gurus in the succeeding decades have banned blue eye shadows. Thereafter, women caught wearing electric blue eye shadows are labeled as outdated.

Nowadays, however, blue eye shadow is coming back with a vengeance. For as long as you use baby blue, silvery or smoky blue hues, it is perfectly all right to wear blue eye makeup. For a more modern look, you can wear light blue colors with navy or dark blue eyeliner. The key in wearing blue is subtlety. And please, do not be caught wearing bright pink or fuchsia lipstick with your blue eyes.

No Conditioner For Oily Hair

There is a common misconception that people with oily hair should not use conditioner because it would make their hair greasier. However, a lot of individuals with oily hair actually have dry ends, especially for those who are sporting ultra-long hair.

Even if you have oily hair, it is perfectly all right to use conditioner. Just make sure that you do not select one that is very rich because it will make your hair look limp. If you still are not comfortable in using hair conditioner, you can just make do with apple-cider vinegar solution (combine one part of above mentioned vinegar with 20 parts of water) to help revive the luster of your hair ends.

Test Foundation Hue To Your Jaw Line

It is important to note that many people have areas on their face that is reddish or discolored. Matching foundation shade to your jaw line may not be a good idea. A lot of people who do this end up finding a shade that is too pink or may not provide utmost coverage to the rest of their face.

Instead of using your jaw line to find a foundation match, why don't you use your neck? Professional make up artists do this because it helps in finding the perfect shade that will cover blotchy areas in your face, as well as even out your skin color.

Apply Blush Only On The Apples Of Your Cheek

There is really nothing wrong in applying blush on the apples of your cheek if you have an oval face. However, not everybody have oval-shaped faces. If you are one of the women with a face shape that's other than oval, you should not apply blush on the apples of your cheek because it will do nothing to enhance your beauty or hide your flaws.

For people with round faces, putting blush along your cheek bones and up towards your temple is best. For those with square faces, just sweep the blusher underneath the cheekbones.

Use Only Oil-Free Cosmetics If You Have Oily Skin

At first glance, it seems logical to use only oil-free products if you have oily skin because you do not want to add more grease on your face. However, it is the skin's tendency to produce more oil if you remove oil on the top layer of your skin. Thus, you end up overproducing sebum.

If you have oily skin, you just need to choose the products that you use on your face. Even if the product contains oil, for as long as it is natural and derived from plant products, then it is perfectly all right. One facial cream that is effective in banishing blemishes as well as helping balance the skin's oil production is Dermaxin. Know more about this product by visiting http://www.dermaxin.com/.
