Geek Chic Make up and Beauty Tips 101

 

-  Being a college student you learn that a little bit goes a long way. From a pack of Roman Noodles for dinner, to that last cup of laundry detergent. Even makeup and beauty take on the concept of simplicity. The best way to go is to show your natural beauty. Highlight those gorgeous features I know you all have ;). Some of my favorite beauty inspiration comes from Lauren Conrad. She really understands that a little goes a long way. With her effortless cat eye liner and natural makeup look, this is perfect for the “everyday college student” look. Add foundation, powder, and a light blush and you’re good to go. You can take this look from day to night by simply adding some dark eye shadow right below the crease (but not too dark), and add a lighter shade to your crease. End things with the lightest color to highlight your brow bone. And a darker lip gloss or lipstick to the lips (again not too dark, we are still going for a natural look). With a change of clothes you will be all set for a well deserved night out after a day filled with classes.

-          Another tip to touch up your hair on one of those greasy bed head days. Dab bay powder into your hair and work it through the roots until it is no longer visible. This has the same effect as dry shampoo but works a lot more efficiently in my opinion. Brush or comb your hair and you are all done!
