This 2019, dare to be different by experimenting with new makeup routines and looks for an upgraded version of you. Let EB Advance, the premier line of Ever Bilena Cosmetics, help you with these simple makeup tips:
Highlight over foundation for skin that glows from within.
The usual step that most follow is to apply primer then foundation. But if you want to achieve natural-looking glowy skin, switch up your makeup routine a bit and brush on EB Advance Glow Out Highlighter (P299) on the high points of your cheeks, bridge of your nose, temples, Cupid’s bow, and chin right after priming.
Dab on your favorite foundation then proceed with the rest of your routine. You can opt to intensify your highlighter by adding another layer after finishing your makeup. You can also use highlighter on your body such as your collarbones, shoulders, and legs for that sun-kissed glow.
Smudge eyeliner for an effortlessly cool smoky eye.
Want to have a subtle glam look but lack the time and skill to do it? A smudged eyeliner will do the trick. It’s easy – simply apply a thick line of EB Advance Eye Define Waterproof Matic Liner (P175) above your upper lash line and use a brush to smudge out your eyeliner.
For your lashes, use EB Advance Lash Define Waterproof Mascara (P205) for an edgy, smoky eye look.
Experiment with colors.
For 2019, it’s all about playing with eyeshadow colors that you don’t normally go for. If you’re the “no makeup, makeup” type, maybe you can try adding a pop of color like the blood red matte or the shade in EB Advance Uncover 2 palette (P395). If you’re the adventurous type who prefers loud colors, this time around maybe you can try the muted, neutral ones.
Leveling up your makeup game for the coming year does not necessarily mean completely altering your usual makeup looks. Making subtle changes or switching up your usual routine automatically upgrades your whole makeup game. These clever products from EB Advance will help you do just that.
