Whether it’s buying a piece of clothing, jewelry, or makeup; our con?dence can be enhanced and linked to some of our most simple and basic buys. That con?dence is the cornerstone and basis to determine and follow through with any decision we make. Whether we realize or not, we all tend to mentally scrutinize items of interest to determine the mindset that item can represent to those who see us. With that piece of jewelry we look at how it looks on our hand, against our skin, or with our hair up or down; and that piece of clothing, where we’ll wear it to, who may be there, and what’s the look we want to translate. The idea of a “power suit” or “freak ‘em dress” is commonly referred to make the connection we have with the thought of our con?dence being entangled by what we wear.
Makeup is no different to that process. Sultry, sexy, fresh faced, vibrant, and powerful are all looks that can be translated through our makeup choices. Want to be sultry and sexy go with a black or purple Smokey eye and nude lip combo. Feeling super con?dent and powerful? Go with a simple bronze eye shadow and winged black liner with a bold red lip. Enjoy simplistic? Go with just a black eyeliner, lip gloss, and a light dusting of blush and bronzer, just enough to give your face warmth. So the next time you need a pick me up, to ace an interview, or have a night out with the girls and you’re picking out that out?t that you feel your best in, don’t forget about your makeup. That lipstick you pull out your purse may just turn your d emeanor from dull to FABULOUS in a blink of an eye!
