I've always obsessed with Korean makeup, they look so girly and give a more youthful and innocent appearance. So, as a fan of Korean makeup, today I'd like to create a Korean gradient lip. All we did to get a gradient lip was dab on a tint on lipstain in the inner center of your lips and spread it out for a serviceable, if slightly blotchy, gradient look.  step1: Conceal. Instead of swiping concealer across your entire lip surface, pick up a bit with your brush and dab it just along your natural lip line, being sure to blend well. Step2: Simply start from inferior labial inside to outside by dizzy catch is opened deep to shallow. Step3: Deepen the gradient by dabbing on a darker liquid lip colour in the inner center line of your lips with a brush. Blend, and you’re done!  Tips: ❌Do not apply the lipstain directly. Even if your lip stain comes with an applicator, you'll have more control over it if you use a brush. ✅Blending is necessary. Use your fingers or a brush to blend the lip stain better.

Alcohol as a first ingredient in any skincare product is a problem! Although, it is not easy to convince everyone of this, hopefully this post will make everyone thing twice about the ingredients of their skincare products. The bad types of alcohol as listed above, are volatile alcohols. These types of alcohols have a quick drying finish, immediate degreasing of the skin, and a weightless feel. This type of product is daughter after by just about everyone in the skincare community. Although this sounds like an amazing ingredient to have in your skincare, the long term negative benefits outweighs the short term benefits. The negative benefits you will see from long term use of volatile alcohols are dryness, disruption of the skins microbiome and the skin barrier, an over all strain on how the skin replenishes, renews, and rejuvenates itself. Skin damage for alcohol can resort in an increase in bumps and enlarged pores. On the good side of alcohol, we have alcohols that are known as fatty alcohols. Fatty alcohols are derived from coconuts or palm oil. Fatty alcohols are sometimes used to thicken a formulation, which allows for it to be nourishing for the skin. These types of alcohol are non-irritating to the skin. At the end of the day Fatty alcohols are great for any skin type. The huge take away from this post is that fatty alcohols are beneficial to skincare.
