Beauty Barrier: Red Lipstick on your pearly whites.
Fast Fix: Directly after applying lipstick, always press
crimson-color lips onto a folded square of tissue to blot. Then stick your
forefinger in your mouth and slowly pull it out to remove any lipstick that you
may have mistakenly applied on the insides of your lips (this step is crucial).
Tip: Swipe a
super-thin coat of Vaseline across your top row of teeth; it’s far too slick
for lipstick to adhere.
Beauty Barrier: Loose eye shadow fallout under your eyes.
Fast Fix: When applying shadow, fold a single square of tissue and
hold it underneath each eye. It will always catch any loose pigment fallout
while protecting your freshly done foundation. This works wonders!
Beauty Barrier: Clumpy Mascara.
Fast Fix: First things first, throw away your mascara—it’s most
likely expired. Second, gently clamp your lashes with a baby wipe between your
forefinger and thumb, and pull lashes all the way through to remove any excess mascara.
Then put a little Vaseline on your fingertips and lightly run them across the
tips of your lashes to separate, darken, and define them. For a more dramatic
look, use Aveda’s Mosscara to darken your lashes natural color. Lightly swipe
your top lashed.
Beauty Barrier: Way too much blush.
Fast Fix: For powder blush, liberally dust Aveda’s loose translucent
powder over your cheeks to diffuse the color. If you’re wearing cream blush,
tone it down by sponging an ever-so-slight amount of Aveda’s Tinted Moisturizer
on top.
Beauty Barrier: Orangey fake and bake.
Fast Fix: Keep a liquid bronzer on standby to hide streaks and
quickly distribute color to any areas you may have mistakenly missed. If that’s
too sheer, dust over it with bronzing body powder for a sexy, evenly tan
finish.
Beauty Barrier: Frizzy Flyaways.
Fast Fix: As silly as this may sound, if fighting the frizz is a
daily plight, you might want to keep a box of dryer sheets under your bathroom
sink as well as in the laundry room. Rubbing one over your hair drastically
reduces humidity-related static cling, allowing fussy strands to fall right
into place.
Tip: If that
doesn’t happen to do the trick, use Aveda’s Control Paste for a more heavy duty
defense.
Beauty Barrier: Yellowish tint to your fingernails or
toenails.
Fast Fix: To restore your nail beds to your natural nude color, mix a
few drops of fresh lemon juice with ¼ cup of hydrogen peroxide in a plastic
bowl. Completely saturate a few cotton balls in the mixture and rub your
fingernails and toenails until the stain is removed.
Tip: In the future, be sure to double up on your base coats!
