Did you ever wish you could change your nose? Or your chin?

Well, contouring can help change your facial features temporarily. By using darker shades of make-up to contour, and lighter shades to highlight; imperfect features can appear more attractive so you can enjoy looking in the mirror.

Smart Cover is ideal for contouring. You can highlight with the Perfect Touch Camouflage Crème to soften undesirable shadows under the eyes, at the corners of your mouth, or wherever deep wrinkles or furrows appear. You can even make a receding chin have better definition by highlighting the jaw bones.

Use dark shades to contour a nose that’s too wide. Apply down both sides to make the nose appear slimmer. For a forehead that’s too broad, apply a shading product like the Smart Cover Stick to the outer corners and blend to the hairline. You can also watch chubby cheeks seem much thinner by shadowing beneath the natural cheekbone to create a more sculpted look.

Don’t let the idea of contouring scare you. Use just small amounts of a crème makeup to get started. And, make sure to blend the edges so it looks natural to your eye and set it with some finishing powder and apply with a brush.

Remember our golden rule — highlight your best and contour or shadow away the rest!

Smart Cover’s Personal Lifestyle Tip

Common question:

“I’m too rushed in the morning to apply all my makeup. What are the most important things I should do?”

Flori says, “That can vary according to your individual needs and your bad spots. In general, here’s our list of the Top Three Must-Do’s before you leave the house in the morning.”

One, first apply that sunscreen. Then, apply the moisturizer that suits your skin type. Allow it to absorb so you don’t have any greasy residue.

Two, and this is most important, use a concealer to hide dark circles and other noticeable flaws that can make you look tired and older. Personally, I use the Perfect Touch Camouflage Creme to cover my dark eye circles, the deep furrows from the edge of my nose to my mouth, and the redness down the center of my nose. It really takes care of my bad spots. You should figure out yours.

Three, add some blusher or bronzer for a healthy, natural look. Then you’re ready to apply a complimentary soft color on your lips.

Now, if you have more time on certain days, you can use eyeliner to just give you a wide awake look and you’re set to go.

It is as easy as 1-2-3, and you can do it all in just minutes!

“Should I wear sunscreen every day?”

The answer:

Absolutely! Healthy skin is always in season and requires your attention each and every day. Even on cloudy days, apply sunscreen of 15 SPF or higher before heading out.

Sandra Day, who is a corrective skin care expert, explained that the number next to “SPF” means how many minutes before the sun begins to penetrate the skin. That’s why “SPF” stands for Sun Protection Factor. Therefore, you are going to need to reapply it during the day. Also don’t forget, as Sandra says, to put it on behind your hands.

In warmer climates, it’s especially important to wear a long-sleeved shirt of a tightly woven fabric, a wide-brimmed hat, and UV sunglasses. Remember, the highest intensity of the sun is from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. daily. Also remember that the sun really is your worst enemy when it comes to premature aging skin and everything that goes with it including freckles, age spots, and wrinkles. Please do be careful in the sun!

“As a wedding expert and television personality, I’m often in front of the camera on some of the top television shows…and HD film really shows your skin’s flaws! Brides, too, face the camera on the most important day of their lives, so I know they’re in need of a fabulous cover-up system that’s going to give them perfect skin in-person and in pictures. I’m so thrilled to finally find a great coverage product that goes on smoothly and perfectly covers the redness I get on my cheeks from rosacea.

Even better, the product stays on for hours – until I take it off — and it’s given me a perfectly smooth, healthy-looking, natural complexion for my photo shoots and on-camera appearances. I’ve been using it for several months now, for all of my ultra-important events and TV tapings, and I truly love it. The kit includes a range of hues, which will be great when summertime has me a bit more tan, as well as excellent applicators and additional products. I recommend Smart Cover to brides and grooms, and also to bridesmaids who want to look lovely on the big day.

When your skin looks amazing, you feel more confident, and that glow shows through in the wedding photos and video that you’ll treasure forever.”
