Since joining Sach a, I have had the opportunity to travel with my makeup team to several countries to work the international beauty pageants. I was the head makeup artist for the Miss Universe, Miss USA, the Miss Jamaica, the Miss Trinidad and Tobago and sev eral other international pageants. This is a tremendous experience for me, since I have the opportunity to work wit h every possible skin tone and skin type. Imagine, just after doing the makeover for Miss Japan, the next delegate to plop herself down on your makeup chair is Miss Nigeria! This is why I love working with the Sacha brand. No matter what sk in tone I am faced with, I'm ready. Over the years, I have also learnt a lot more about makeup from the person who a ctually manufacturers the Sacha brand. This has given me valuable insight into n ot only how, but also why some products perform so well and why others simply do n't cut it. Makeup Secrets Revealed is therefore far more than a step-by-step makeup guide. It is a no-nonsense publication crammed with amazing makeup tips and valuable in formation straight from the horse's mouth. I begin by discussing with you how and why you should look after your skin, how to select the right foundation, simple techniques on how you should apply your eye shadow and blush and how to shape yo ur eyebrows. I will also introduce you to Sacha's wonderful line of camouflage makeup which eas ily conceals all skin blemishes, from acne to stretch marks with the same natura l coverage as their regular foundations. This is my gift to you. After reading i t, if you have any questions, please drop me a line at [email protected] I would be happy to answer them. Sincerely, Kamla Regrello Head Makeup Artist Sacha Cosmetics Page 3

Clear, healthy skin is the per fect canvas for makeup. Over the years the demand for new products has given rise to much hype in the sk in care industry. However, most of the claims made have been largely speculative with very few proven in clinical tests. At Sacha it has always been our view th at a skin care line should be simple, effective and easy to use. It should have as few ingredients as possible to reduce the possibility of skin irritation. Rem ember, an ingredient, which is beneficial to one person, could seriously irritat e someone else's skin. In reality, almost all ingredients have the potential to ir ritate your skin. UNDERSTANDING YOUR SKIN Believe it or not your skin is the largest organ of your body. It is a living or gan which heals and renews itself constantly. It covers your entire body and con sists of two clearly defined layers: 1. The epidermis is the superficial or outermost layer. In other words, this is the skin we can see and feel. It forms the protective covering. This layer contains no blood vessels but has small nerve endings and is made up of five layers of c ells. The pigment called melanin is found in this layer. Melanin protects the se nsitive cells beneath, from the harmful effects of the sun. The greater the expo sure to sunlight the greater the production of melanin. 2. The dermis or the inner layer is located just under the epidermis. This layer is highly sensitive because it contains nerve endings. It also contains numerous b lood vessels, lymph vessels, sweat glands, sebaceous glands and hair follicles. These are held together by collagen and elastin fibers, which together give the skin its strength and resilience. Page 4 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: SKIN CARE Each hair follicle has a sebaceous gland, which produces sebum. Excess sebum mak es your skin look and feel oily. If the neck of a sebaceous gland is clogged, se bum accumulates, giving rise to acne. A deficiency in the production of sebum pr oduces dry skin. Your teenage years could be your best time or your worst time depending on your hormonal activity. Generally, puberty is a bad time for your skin.

If you are spared the onslaught of acne and pimples usually associated with the teenage years, then more than likely your 20's and 30's should be trouble free. During your 20's your skin should look its best. It can however be adversely affec ted by allergies, hormonal imbalances, stress, and exposure to the elements. In your 30's your skin may begin to lose the bloom of youth. You may begin to see the appearance of dryness and fine lines. The skin tends to be more sensitive an d extra special care is required during this period. In your 40's your hormone pro duction slows and the skin begins to lose tone and elasticity, giving rise to wr inkles, creases and fine lines. While these changes occur naturally as you age, they can be minimized and controlled by properly caring for your skin. Cleansing , toning and moisturizing your skin twice daily can help you rejuvenate and revi ve your skin. Now that you have a better understanding of your skin and how it works, I am sur e you will appreciate that the time to begin your personal skin care routine is NOW! Page 5 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: SKIN CARE CLEANSERS Today's women have the choice of several different brands and types of cleansers. To simplify matters, we group cleansers into two basic categories: tissue-off clea nsers and rinse-off cleansers. Tissue-off cleansers which are normally referred to as cream or milk cleansers have a high oil content. It is these oils, which combine wit h and help to remove makeup, facial oils, and grime allowing them to be easily w iped away. Tissue-off cleansers are less drying and are more suitable for normal to dry skin types. Rinse-off cleansers are water-based and incorporate some type of detergent to he lp remove makeup and excess oils. This type of cleanser is recommended for women with oily or combination skin. It should be mild enough to gently and effective ly cleanse your skin without drying. Gels, foaming cleansers and facial washes a re normally referred to as rinse-off cleansers. TONERS

There are many misconceptions about the role of toners and astringents in a skin care routine. Firstly, they are an essential step in the skin care routine. The y remove traces of makeup or residue that your cleanser misses, and prepares the s kin for moisturizing. The term toner, freshener or astringent is often used inte rchangeably. If you have normal, combination or oily skin use an astringent cont aining a low percentage of alcohol and skin soothers like allantoin. For normal to dry skin use an alcohol-free freshener with ingredients such as witch hazel a nd other natural extracts. Page 6 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello MOISTURIZERS Moisturizers act as a protective barrier between your skin and the environment. Although your skin manufactures its own oils, it is usually removed during the p rocess of cleansing. It is therefore necessary to replenish these natural oils. A basic moisturizer should contain water and other ingredients that attract and trap moisture onto the skin. It should also contain emollients which nourish the skin. DAILY MOISTURIZERS (with Sunscreen) A mere quarter of a century ago, it was not as important to wear a sunscreen as it is today. The ozone layer, which surrounds the earth, serves to deflect the h armful ultra-violet (UV) rays of the sun. Over the years this layer has steadily deteriorated, allowing through far more harmful UV rays. Every day you are exposed to UV rays that damages your skin causing sunburn, ski n diseases and premature aging. UVB rays cause sunburn especially in the summer while UVA rays are responsible for premature aging. These UV rays are present ev ery day whether the sun is out or not. We strongly advise that you wear a sunscreen all year round. Sunscreen is no lon ger a summer time practice. It must become a part of your daily routine. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before exposure to the sun, giving it time to penetra te your skin. Reapply every 3-4 hours as well as immediately after swimming or p rofuse sweating. A waterproof sunscreen generally stays on about 30 minutes in w ater. Sacha's Daily Moisturizers with SPF 15 sun protection provide both UVA and UVB sun protection. Please bear in mind that a higher SPF does not necessarily mean bet ter protection, but longer protection. An SPF 15 product for instance, will prov ide you with 95% protection while an SPF 50 product will give you 98% protection . The difference is negligable. Sacha's Daily Moisturizer can be used alone or as an under makeup base. Moisturizers with a higher SPF factor tend to be too oily. Makeup worn ove r an oily base has a tendency to become discolored.

At bedtime use a moisturize r that is rich in emollients and which contains ingredients that are designed to hydrate and revitalize your skin while you sleep. Sacha's Overnight Moisture Loti on contains Babassu Oil, a super-rich emollient, which reduces fine lines and he lps control the signs of aging. NIGHT MOISTURIZERS (with Alpha Hydroxy Acids) Hydroxy acids are natural ingredients, which gently lift and remove dead cells f rom your skin. These mild acids are natural exfoliants which increase cell turn over and improve skin texture. There are two basic types of these natural exfoli ants: Alpha hydroxy acids have a drop off rate which means that it will only work when t here are dead cells to exfoliate. Beta hydroxy acids do not have a drop off rate and will continue to exfoliate even after the point when the dead cells have been removed. They therefore have a gr eater potential to irritate the skin. As often as required, use a night treatment which contains natural exfoliants to remove the dead cells. Sacha's Overnight Renewal Lotion contains 5% alpha hydroxy acids to gently exfoliate your skin while you sleep. Allantoin contained in thi s product helps to reduce irritation. Though abrasive physical facial scrubs are widely used for exfoliation, they have a reputation of irritating the skin. A p roduct containing alpha hydroxy acid is a wiser choice. The Sacha chemists have cut out all the hoopla and have developed a skin care re gime that is simple and very effective.

Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello SKIN LIGHTENERS At Sacha we have taken a firm position against manufacturing any product designe d to lighten your natural skin color. The potential damaging effects of skin lig hteners, in our view, far outweigh the perceived benefits. Bleaching creams as t hey are commonly called, generally contain hydroquinone which can cause irrepara ble damage to your skin. Prolonged use inhibits the production of melanin, a nat

ural pigment which protects the skin from all the damaging effects of the sun. I t also causes the skin to look transparent as it becomes thin. After discontinuati on of use of these products, the skin continues to lighten, sometimes for severa l years, with no sign of stopping. Dark spots often become very light spots. Pro longed use can also cause your skin to become red, blotchy and blistered. We strongly advise against using skin lighteners, especially those containing ov er 5% hydroquinone. We recommend instead that you use a sunscreen during the day containing at least SPF 15 sun protection and an alpha hydroxy exfoliant at nig hts. This is in our view, a far safer approach.

Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello COMEDOGENIC INGREDIENTS This is a term used to describe ingredients, which have the potential to clog po res and cause acne. Always bear in mind that acne has been proven to be heredita ry and can be influenced by stress, hormonal fluctuations, medications and most certainly by excessive exposure to sunlight. Some women have the pre-conceived notion that foundations clog pores. This is si mply not true. Unlike in the past, manufacturers today have a host of substitute s for any ingredient that is suspected to be comedogenic or has the potential to clog the pores. Having said that, for your information, the following are a lis t of suspect ingredients: Acetylated Lanolin Myristyl Lactate Acetylated Lanolin Alcohol Myristyl Myristate Algin Octyl Palmitate

Carrageenan Octyl Stearate Cetearyl Alcohol and Ceteareth 20 Oleth-3 Cocoa Butter Oleyl Alcohol Coconut Butter PEG-16 Lanolin Coconul Oil PG 2 Myristyl Propionate Disodium Monooleamido PEG 2 Polyglyceryl-3-Diisosteatate Sulfosuccinate Potassium Chloride Ethylhexyl Palmitate Propylene Glycol Monostearate

Glyceryl-3-Diisosterate Red Algae Hexadecyl Alcohol Sodium Chloride Isocetyl Stearate Sodium Lauryl Sulfate Isodecyl Oleate Sorbitan Sesquinoleate Isopropyl Isostearate Soulan 16 Isopropyl Myristate Steareth 10 Isopropyl Palmitate Stearyl Heptanonate Isostearyl Isostearate

Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello FOUNDATIONS Dress shabbily, they notice the dress. Dress impeccably,they notice you. Coco Chanel When you walk into a room people must notice you and not your makeup. If they no tice your makeup, your makeup is shabby. If however they notice you, your makeup i s impeccable. This is the Sacha philosophy. Makeup should be used to draw attent ion to your best features and away from your less flattering ones. When doing a painting, the artist first primes the canvas with a base color. This primer must have sufficient coverage to conceal the blemishes in the material and provide a smooth surface on which to work. It has to be a neutral color to bring out the colors the artist intends to use. This neutral primer used is white. A makeup artist, as the name suggests is an artist. The primer used is foundation. When doing a makeover, you cannot of course use white, since it will result in a mask-like appearance. You must find a primer that matches your natural skin tone. This primer must have good coverage and be neutral enough to allow your eye, cheek and lip makeup to highlight your natural beauty. The greatest challenge facing any makeup artist or makeup wearer is finding the right foundation! The problem is, from the inception, foundations were not invented to perfectly m atch our natural skin tones. They were first developed for the movie industry by early cosmetics pioneers such as Max Factor. These were the days when white ligh t was used, causing actors and actresses to look washed out. To put color on their faces, cosmetic manufacturers developed foundations with a red base. This era of pink foundations dominated the cosmetic market during this period and still forms the basis of many brands today. As the movie industry developed, natural light was introduced and there was no l

onger the need for red foundations. Manufacturers then began reducing the amount o f red used in their formulations to better match various skin tones. Page 11 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: FOUNDATIONS Foundations, for many years however, remained far too red. Later, manufacturers began adding more yellow to their foundations to alter the pink look. The added y ellow however, gave foundations an unattractive orange look. During this time, cosmetics manufacturers began recognizing that there was an em erging market for African American cosmetics. They took their existing red formula s, darkened them, and foundations for women of color were invented. They however failed to take into account that most darker women have yellow undertones and n eeded to wear foundations with a yellow base. In his book Making Faces, renowned makeup artist, Kevyn Aucoin, states: Years ago, foundation was used specifically to alter the color of the skin, re: `ro sy glow'. But the trend of the last few years has taken us from what intentionally changed the wearer's natural coloring to products that match the tones perfectly. He later adds: Still, if you choose to wear foundation, there are two important things to consi der when selecting a product, the `look' you want to achieve and that it matches you r skin. At Sacha, we believe that a foundation should provide sufficient coverage to sui t the individual's need and yet remain natural-looking. Your foundation should per fectly match your natural skin color so you do not end up with a ring around your face. From our experience, most Caucasian, African and all Asian and Latin women have yellow-based skin. Yet, most foundations have red or orange tones. When women with natural yellow undertones wear foundation with a pink or orange base, they often end up with an unnatural looking hue. Women with darker skin to nes often turn ashy. Darker African women often look at least one shade darker t han their natural skin color. Page 12 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: FOUNDATIONS

Because of this, until recently there had been only one black Miss Universe in the history of the Pageant. For over twenty years beautiful African delegates would walk out on stage, look ashy under the stage lights, and lose every chance of w inning. After developing our yellow-based foundations we felt that the best way to test them would be on African contestants in beauty pageants. We knew that if dark Af rican delegates did not look ashy on stage then we had hit the jackpot. And, so we did! The very first beauty contestant who wore our yellowbased founda tions was adjudged 2nd Runner Up in the 1997 MissUniverse Pageant. The second on e was crowned Miss Universe 1998, wearing our Perfect Copper foundation, and Mis s Universe 1999 won the title wearing our Perfect Honey foundation. Our foundati ons matched their skin tones perfectly without a trace of ashiness. After twenty years of not having a black Miss Universe, we had two in a row, both wearing the same brand of cosmetics - Sacha. If our foundations could work so beautifully on the most difficult skin tones, imagine how perfect they will be for you. CHOOSING THE RIGHT FOUNDATION Foundation is the cosmetic product that women pay the most attention to. It can make the difference between having a natural, flawless finish or looking as if y ou are wearing a mask. The foundation market today is saturated with many types and brands of foundatio ns. At the cosmetics counter you are confronted with an array of choices - liqui d, cream, oil-free, powder, allergy tested, cake, stick, stay-on, hypoallergenic , cream to powder, non-comedogenic and camouflage foundations. It is indeed quit e a mind-blowing experience, especially if you are a first time buyer. To make it easier for you to determine the type that's best for you, we have place d foundations into four major categories: Page 13 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello LIQUID FOUNDATIONS Liquid foundations usually offer sheer coverage and provide a natural look. Most women prefer a liquid foundation because it is easy to apply and fits like a `sec ond skin'. They are available in water-based and oilbased formulas. Sacha's Stay-On C olor Liquid Foundation is oil-free and semi-matte. It provides sheer coverage. It is yellow-based and will perfectly match your skin tone. It is suitable for nor mal, oily or combination skin types. CREAM FOUNDATIONS Cream foundations are traditionally the number one choice of makeup artists. The y are usually available in compacts or sticks, and provide very good coverage. F oundations of this consistency provide a creamy flawless finish and are easy to apply. Sacha's Cream Foundation will perfectly match your skin tone with a flawless, natu ral-looking finish. It is ideally suited to women with normal, dry or combinatio n skin.

This is the type of foundation most frequently used by our Sacha Makeup artists at international beauty pageants. DUAL ACTIV POWDER FOUNDATION: In today's fast paced world, the modern woman is always in search of a quick fix. To her, time is precious, yet she needs to look great in seconds. Many brands offer their solution to this - cream to powder, dual activ, three-in-one - basically a multi-functional product. Sacha's Dual Activ Foundation, as the name implies, is a foundation and powder in one. It provides the easy application of a powder with the excellent coverage of a foundation. The outstanding feature o f this foundation is that it begins as a powder and ends as a powder. It is exqu isitely yellow-based and ideal for normal to oily skin Page 14 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello HOW DO I USE MY FOUNDATION? The very first step in selecting your perfect foundation is assessing your skin type, to determine the type of foundation that would work best for you. Selecting the right shade of foundation for your skin tone is critical. Most wom en have yellow-based skin and need to wear foundations with a yellow base. All S acha foundations are yellow-based and progresses in steps from the lightest to t he darkest shade. If you need to identify the shade of foundation which is perfect for your skin tone visit us at http://www.sachacosmetics.com/skintones.htm . Follow the s imple instructions and identify the shade of foundation which will perfectly mat ch your natural skin color. Use cosmetic sponge for even application. Prepare your face with the appropriate cleanser and toner. Follow with Sacha's Daily Moisturizer which is an excellent u nder makeup base. It improves the application of your foundation and adds to its wearability. It is a must for all women especially those with dry skin. Page 15 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: HOW DO I USE MY FOUNDATION? Apply your foundation with a cosmetic sponge for more control and a smoother app lication. Liquid foundation should be blended in a little at a time until the entire face is completed.

Cream foundation should be applied to the face in long sweeping motions using yo ur cosmetic sponge. Blend evenly until you create a smooth flawless finish. A po wder foundation should be applied as you would your normal compact powder. Remember proper blending is the key - blend your foundation under the jawline, i nto the hairline, on the ear lobes. Pay special attention to the corners of the nose, corners of the mouth, over and under the eyes. If you need to retouch a pa rticular spot, re-apply lightly and blend. Lightly powder with a translucent pow der to set your foundation. TIP: Test foundation along your jawline - not on you r hand and definitely not on the inside of your wrist. View it under different l ight settings. It must match the natural color of your neck. TIP: For easy transition from day to night makeup, touch up with Sacha's Dual Acti v Foundation. If will provide the finish of a powder with the coverage of a foun dation. TIP: Dampen your cosmetic sponge to create a sheer finish. CONCEALER Concealers are of a denser composition than regular foundations and are generall y available in sticks, tubes, pots, and creams. Concealers can be used to cover blemishes, dark spots, ruddy areas, marks, veins, freckles or under eye circles. Your concealer should be one shade lighter than your foundation (and only in ext reme cases should you use a concealer two shades lighter). Using a concealer tha t is too light or too pink will give the appearance of `owl eyes'. In other words, it will emphasize the dark area instead of concealing it . Page 16 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: CONCEALER Apply Sacha's concealer with a small fine tipped brush for an accurate application . As with any other application, blending is the key. Always set your concealer with a sheer, translucent powder to prevent creasing. TIP: Be sure to cover the inside of the nose bridge and the outer corner of your eye where we tend to get dark areas. TIP: You can remove years from your face by applying concealer to the little dow nward turning lines at the corner of your mouth. FACE POWDERS Face powders are an essential step in your makeup routine. They are available in either compact or loose form. It is important to set your foundation with a loose powder. This helps to keep y

our foundation in place. Compact powders should be used for touch ups. Sacha's Translucent Powders are light in texture providing a sheer, natural finish . They are lightly tinted and work best with Sacha's yellowbased foundations. The basic idea is, if you use a translucent powder over your foundation or concealer , it will set your makeup without adding too much extra color. TIP: For warmer c limates or in the summer, take special care to set your foundation with a loose powder, as heat tends to create slipping or running of your foundation. This is especially so in the case of cream foundation as they tend to have a higher oil content. If you have extra oily skin, try our Ultra-Matte Translucent Powders in Light, M edium or Dark shades. These powders were first developed for the Miss Universe P ageant 1999 to keep the delegates shine free during long days of shooting. They are sheer and contain loads of oil natural absorbers. Complexion powders on the other hand, have a greater degree of color and because they are more opaque, can be used alone. They can also be used with your founda tion to set, adjust or enhance. Some women wear foundations that are too pink an d try to neutralize the redness by finishing with one of our yellow-based powder s. We strongly advise against this since this will result in the color of your m akeup turning orange. Remember red plus yellow equals orange! Page 17 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello EYES EYESHADOW While there are rigid rules when it comes to foundations, it is with your eye co lor that you can allow your creative side to take flight. Your eyes are the foca l point of your face. Be sure that your eye makeup techniques and choice of colo rs are most flattering to your eye shape and color. With eye color you can create the illusion of new shapes and sizes. Always keep in mind that light colors highlight and dark colors shrink or recede. Sacha's powder eyeshadows come in singles or easy to use, color coordinated trios. Our cream eye shadows are available in duos. All Sacha Eye Shadows are highly p igmented. Simply put, the shade you see in the container is what you will see on your eyes. When applying eyeshadow sweep the lightest shade over the entire are a from lash line to brow. This shade will be your base color and is to your eye, what your foundation is to your face. It will hold your color and prevent creas ing. TIP: On days when you are really pressed for time, apply the base color to the e ye then skip to mascara and you're done. After applying your base color, apply a

medium shade on the lower lid. This is the part of the eye that most women apply eyeshadow. Blend into your base shade. A third color can then be added. Use a deep, dark shade to create depth. Apply t his shade along the lash line, and at the outer corner of the eye, emphasizing t he crease of the eye and brow bone. Blend well. This is your accent shade and wh en used can create a more defined eye. How you apply this contour shade can help eyes look bigger, smaller, wider set or closer together. The key is to blend so well that attention is still drawn to your eye, not your eye makeup. Page 18 Back to the Table of Contents. Previous Next page http://www.sachacosmetics.com by Kamla Regrello continued: EYESHADOW For eye shadow that looks just applied for hours. First, base your eyelid with Sac ha's Kamaflage Cover Cream in a shade that matches your skintone. Next, apply a ne utral shade of eye shadow or a color nearest your skin color over the Cover Crea m. The process of the powder adhering to the cream will create a smudge resistan t base for your eye shadow. It will last forever. Sacha's powder eyeshadows can be used wet or dry. Dampen your brush or applicator and create your own liquid eyeliner in any of Sacha's vibrant colors. Wet applicat ion of Sacha's eyeshadows serves to intensify the color. Sacha's cream eyeshadows can be used as a single color or with the coordinated duo shade. These cream eyeshadows can be coordinated with our powder shadows, so th at a cream eyeshadow can be used as an under base with a matching powder shadow as a sealant. The best applicators for any cream eye shadow are your fingertips. For extra glamour, use Sacha's shimmering, iridescent Satin Powders to highlight your eyes. With our Satin Powders it is easy to transform your day makeup into a glamorous night look. TIP: When applying eyeshadow to the crease of the eye, keep your eyes open and s lightly tilt your head backward. This will enable you to better see the shape yo u are creating and allowing the shadow to go into the crease. TIP: For more matu re skin use iridescent shades sparingly. TIP: If you have puffy eyelids do not u se iridescent or frosted shadows in light colors or white. Use softer, matte col ors. Page 19 Back to the Table of Contents.

MASCARA Next to lipstick, mascara is your most effective makeup tool. It is a great eye opener that emphasizes the lashes. Apart from the obvious choice of color, many brands promise to thicken, lengthen, darken, volumize and condition your lashes. They are also available in waterproof and regular formulas. Using a proper application technique when applying mascara is extremely importan t to achieve a finished look. You must ensure that the mascara covers the lashes from the root to the tip of the lash. For your upper lashes, wiggle the mascara wand back and forth at the base of the lashes to deposit color before rolling t he brush through your lashes. Coat lashes from the very base to the tips with fu ll strokes. This method creates a thicker looking lash with the ends separated a nd the base well defined. Hold the wand vertically when applying mascara to lower lashes, running this fro m side to side. Be extremely careful as to avoid smudging the under eye area. When applying more than one coat, combing through lashes between coats will help prevent clumping. Sacha's Clear Mascara can be used to create a natural effect or on the brows for e xtra control. TIP: If your mascara is new and the deposit on the wand is plentiful, tissue off the wand before applying to prevent smudging. TIP: To get more product on the mascara brush try twirling the brush. Pumping it will cause the product to dry out sooner. TIP: Try experimenting with different colors of mascara maybe brown, navy or gre en. Page 20 Back to the Table of Contents.

Most companies offer pencil, liq uid, felt tip and cake eyeliners. The tissue of the eye area is extremely delica te, therefore when choosing an eyeliner pencil be sure to select one that is sof t enough to glide easily. This is one aspect of makeup application that not only takes practice but an extremely steady hand. Pencil eyeliners tend to be quite popular because they are easier to control and also can give the look that you want to achieve. Liquid eyeliners on the other hand require more practice. They create precise lines once applied with enough c ontrol. The new kid on the block - felt tip liners are quite similar to liquid eyeliners in consistency and offers the user a bit more control. Cake eyeliners, traditio nally used by professionals are now becoming very popular. A new trend is to use

eyeshadows as eyeliners. The advantage of this that you have so many more color s with which to line. For wide set eyes, emphasize the inner corners of the eyes . For close set eyes, emphasize the outer corners, keeping the inner corners hig hlighted. For drooping eyes, turn the outer end of the liner in an upward direct ion.

STEP 1 - FOUNDATION If you wear foundation, apply evenly onto your face with a cosmetic sponge. A sh eer application works well for daytime, whereas at night you may apply a bit mor e. STEP 2 - CONCEALER If you have any areas like dark under-eye circles, blemishes, red spots, or brok en capillaries, concealer will do the job. It is easiest if you apply this with a fine brush to the area that you wish to conceal and then blend with your finge rtips. STEP 3 POWDER Loose powder is better to set your foundation because the finish is lighter. App ly it lightly with a large powder brush for a sheer finish, a puff or sponge for a heavier finish. Remember to dust a little under your eyes to set your conceal er (helps prevent creasing). STEP 4 EYES For a quick and easy eye makeup, sweep a single wash of color over the entire ey e in a neutral tone. Don't forget your brows. Apply your liner, then mascara.
