Make up is not only one of the main sources of women’s beauty that helps us to hide our shortcomings and accentuate merits, to turn into vamp-women and vice versa – to make us look innocent and natural.

Not everyone knows, but there is a connection between your makeup and zodiac sign. So, let’s see what the Stars predict us to wear on our face in Make up Horoscope December 2009.

Miss December – Sagittarius

You girl don’t have boundaries; adore everything new, unknown desiring to experience all these. Sagittarius should try some soft beaming hues of golden-pink gamut this month. It will bring you the extra energy.

Matte lipstick of the bewitching rich colors will fit you just right. Try pinky blush tints. Your eyes should reflect your sole, Stars say.

Capricorn

This zodiac sign can achieve a lot using only her own efforts. Stars know that you are aware of all the novelty of the makeup trends but you rarely turn this interest into the buying process.

Don’t examine the products for hours to purchase something you really like as it will be the best of what you ever tried. If you are the fan of the natural cosmetic that’s great but if you are the fan of natural make up you should change it this month, without fail!

Switch the beige-brown hues to the bright darkened tints like dark blue, grey. Combine delicate green and grayish green colors. Your lipstick hue shouldn’t be brighter than your eyes.

Aquarius

Dear Aquarius girl, you are fulfilled with emotions, you everyday life is scheduled with all the possible plans, meetings; various events go one after another. On-going life absorbs you completely and you don’t have time to spend some of it for the make-up trends.

But do you really need it? Stars say that you should try one of this-season-fashionable-makeup trends. It can be one, but good and expensive. A fantastic lip gloss, blush or eye shadows made of the up-to-date silky texture. The colors should fit your eyes color or if they are brown then, there are no limits!

Make Up For Photoshoot

Grease, too pale skin, thin split of eyes, bruises under the eyes… “Do I really look like this?” – ask women anxiously examining their amateur photos of the family occasions. If you are going to some event where the picts are expected to be done, follow our rules of make up for the photoshoots and you’ll always be satisfied with yourself there.

Pay your attention that these rules don’t do for the professional stage session, where the special one is needed.

So, how to makeup for the photos?

Every make-up looks much paler than in reality. The photoflash of the amateur camera and studio lighting eat up the half of the colors. That’s why you have to makeup brighter than you’ve got used to.

Pay a thorough attention to the face skin tone. Mask all the skin shortcomings (under-the-eyes-bruises, pimples, redness and so on) with a help of the conсealer and then apply the foundation onto the face and neck and decollete area if you’ll be in an open gown.

If your ears can turn red, don’t forget to put on the foundation onto them as well, otherwise they’ll stand out significantly.

Nothing transforms a woman so much as a beloved man and… make up. Let’s use this advantage wisely and avoid some stupid mistakes. There can be a lot of them but usually there are 5 the most spread. Well, one after another.

1. Wrong toner hue.

A woman who uses the wrong toner is easy to see in the crowd: the collar of her blouse is always dirty all over with toner. It means that she applied it onto the neck skin as well in order to match the face skin tone with the neck one.

Remember, if the makeup foundation changes the skin color of the face, you’ve put on the wrong tint. The right toner hue should exactly coincide with the skin tone. To choose the right one you need to apply a bit of toner along the chin line, shade it and watch the result into the mirror in the condition of the natural illumination. The correct hue is the one that won’t stand out against the face skin background.

Help: yellow tints products fit almost everyone unlike the rosy ones. If you are dubious what to buy, opt for the yellowish hues.

Each season designers create something new for us to make our looks fresher. Despite the fact springtime beauty is still months away, the beauty trends from the runway have already started to make their way into stores.

This time the trends are very feminine!

Gone are the heavy eyebrows and the scarlet lips. The hottest makeup trends for Spring/Summer 2009 involve extremely long false eyelashes, flawless foundation, soft, smokey eyes and very light and very natural lips.

Your Eyes

No thick, heavy eyebrows anymore. Eyebrows for spring are much softer and more natural. Beauty experts even recommend letting brows grow out and then only trimming the unruly hair, sweeping the rest naturally toward the temple.

Eyelashes should be as long and luscious as possible no matter whether they are real or false.

Fake lashes longer than your real ones can be the perfect choice for this spring as they add an ethereal sense of fantasy – so much loved by designers in this season.

Say goodbye to harsh black liquid liner.

Violet eyeliner has been promoted to create a soft, smokey eye that compliments every skin tone.

Fall’s classic smoky eyes - created with a combination of black liner and dark shadow – are still with us and paired with nude lips and bare skin.
