How To Look Wide Awake (When You Don't Feel It)

Hello my petals!

We all know that you need a decent 8 hours sleep every night, how else would we look so beautiful?

But being a mum I know this isn't always easy to achieve. And in your busy lives im sure factor's such as work, study and general life stress all affect how easily you drift off at night.

One of the first tell-tale sign's i've had a rough night is in my eyes.

So here is my step by step guide to making those eye's look wide awake, when you feel half asleep!

Step one: Foundation

Part of a general face routine, start with foundation. Add's a nice all over colour to your face.

This is a great everyday foundation. And a handy tip is to apply the perfect blur before you use foundation for an even smoother base!

Step two: Conceal

Conceal those under eye circles! Remembering to conceal in a big triangle shape so that it blends in nicely. 

Step three : ELF under eye setting powder

This little gem is the next step in looking wide awake. Gently press the white pigments in the same triangle shape that you used to conceal in the previous step. Make sure you pat it in place, if you rub your just going to remove the previous layers. 

Step four: Mascara

Using a mascara that separates your lashes will give a lovely, awake look. It help's to make your eye's pop aswell. Look at mascara as the picture frame for the eyes.

MAC the falsies is good for separating lashes

Step five: White liner.

White eye liner is the secret to looking awake. Lining your lower water line and inner corner's give the illusion that your eyes are bigger (winning!)

BOE is a nice cheap liner that works brilliantly

Voila! Finished look. 

And taa-daa! AWAKE! If all else fails, drink coffee.
