1. Use dry shampoo on your hair the night BEFORE you know you will not wash it. It soaks up all that stuff and gets that dirty look you kinda want going on.

2. Apply a concealer under your eyes in an upside down triangle shape blend it FIRST with your finger THEN with a brush, and apply powder directly on top if it the second after you are done. It will last.

3. To make eyeshadow more intense, spray your brush with a setting spray or dip the brush into some water

4. Man, you will never get your eyeliner to look perfect, but fuck it life isn’t perfect and your makeup game is still strong.
