1. Add Oil to Your Makeup Brush

hair, human hair color, eyebrow, face, black hair, Having fairly oily skin myself, I rarely think about adding oil to beauty routine aside from a cleansing oil. However, if you have normal or dry skin and crave a dewy look, adding oil to your makeup brush could be just the ticket! Get some foundation on the brush, then add a drop of oil and apply it to your face as usual. You should see a soft glow to your complexion. You can also just add a small drop of oil to your foundation and mix it before you apply it if you don’t like the idea of adding oil directly on your brush.

The key is to choose the right oil for your skin type. For those with sensitive skin, consider a lightweight and non-comedogenic option like argan or jojoba oil. Just a small drop mixed in with your foundation can elevate your look to feel more lush and radiant. Plus, oils can nourish your skin throughout the day, ensuring your makeup doesn't just look great, but your skin feels great too. Remember, a little goes a long way – you’re looking for a healthy sheen, not an oily shine!

2. Get Crafty with an Old Manicure

nail, face, finger, lip, beauty, Getting a fresh paint job on your nails can really amp up our look but the problem is the upkeep. I know I don’t always remember to get my nails repainted or touched up by a pro and finding the time can be really challenging. If you find yourself in dire need of a manicure but no time to hit the nail salon, try giving yourself a half-moon mani at the base of your nails, apply a topcoat, and you’re set.

3. Add Concealer or Foundation to Your Lips

Add Concealer or Foundation to Your Lips If you watch makeup tutorials on YouTube, you’ve probably seen a lot of beauty vloggers apply concealer around their freshly painted lips or around their eyebrows to get really clean lines. Well, did you know you can achieve the same effect by applying concealer or foundation straight to your lips? You’ll want to exfoliate your lips first, then apply a thin layer of your favorite concealer or foundation. Next, line the edge of your lips with a lip brush or pencil and fill in with lipstick.

This technique is especially useful if you want to create the perfect blank canvas to work on. It neutralizes your natural lip color, allowing the true shade of the lipstick or gloss to stand out. Not only does this step enhance the intensity of the lip color, but it can also help to prevent color bleeding and increase the longevity of your lip makeup. Remember to moisturize after exfoliating to keep your lips smooth; this will ensure a flawless application. Once your lips are prepped, choose a bold color to make a statement, or a soft hue for a more natural look—perfect for that irresistible selfie!

4. Apply Blush before Your Foundation

Apply Blush before Your Foundation Applying your blush before your foundation might sound like crazy talk, but hear me out. The idea behind this is that applying your blush first will create a “lit from within” look that can’t be achieved when you apply blush on top of foundation. If you try this tip, you might need to choose a brighter color, but it’s a very pretty look!

5. Apply Primer All over

hair, human hair color, face, blond, black hair, If you want to ensure that ALL of your makeup stays put, apply primer all over your face and even onto your brows. We normally don’t think about applying a face primer anyplace besides our face, but this trick makes sure that any brow powder or color you apply will last all day. It makes sense if you think about it, we prime our face, lids, lips, and lashes so why not our brows?!

6. Pick the Right Red Lipstick

hair, human hair color, face, eyebrow, blond, Red lips are the perfect accessory whether it’s a night out or you just want to look polished for the day. If you’re a red lipstick lover, I’m sure you’re aware that there are many shades of red to choose from. The next time you’re picking out a red lipstick for yourself, keep these two tips in mind: choose a blue-based red to make teeth appear whiter and an orange-based red to make your tan pop.

7. Leave a Gap in Your Eyeliner

face, hair, eyebrow, black hair, cheek, If you wear eyeliner on your lash line and waterline, this tip is for you! If you want to make your eyes appear larger and who doesn’t don’t connect the lines from your lash line to your waterline. Leave a small gap at the end so your eyeliner isn’t connected. I can attest to the fact that connecting the two lines, in fact, makes your eyes look smaller as I’ve done it myself!

So there you have it, ladies. Some of the best beauty tips I’ve found on Instagram thus far. I’m sure there will be much more on the way and I can’t wait to share them with you. What’s the best beauty tip you’ve learned on Instagram?

if u want to get dewy skin, buy a dewy setting spray or a dewy primer. there are also foundations that will give u a dewy finish

you actually shouldn't use any oil on your makeup brushes because it's almost impossible to get out. I used a tiny bit of oil on my brushes once to clean them and I'm still trying to get all of it out a month later
