createthislookforlessxHey! I love your posts!! I was wondering how to use bronzer and what kind I should get. I have rather fair skin but it's a little tan from the summer. And what brush should I use to apply the bronzer? Thanks!!
Another great The Beauty Department trick!

I use a Conair curling wand and I love it! Here is a great tutorial from The Beauty Department!
The curling wand has become quite the popular tool! We showed you how to make your own from a curling iron HERE and we got a LOT of positive feed back from you guys! Here are a couple helpful things you should keep in mind when using your curling wand…
- DO leave a little space in between the hair each time you wrap it around the barrell. That gives you a more relaxed wave. If your hair is really long, you’ll have no choice but to let it be a little closer together so that it all fits on the iron, but try tugging on it for 10 seconds after you unwrap it. That will also relax the curl a little, making it look more natural.
- DON’T coil it too tight. The hair will get too “pattern-y” and can look more like a perm than natural waves.
- DO flat iron your ends on medium heat to smooth out the ends. When you curl your hair with a wand, you usually don’t hit the ends with heat. To get even heat-treated shine throughout, I recommend just going over them lightly with your flat iron.
Which do you use more? The curling iron or the curling wand?

How To Contour from makeup artist Amy Nadine.
TOOLS: Foundation Sponge or Foundation Brush Bronzing Powder or Cream Bronzer Flat-headed Bronzing Brush 1. Apply foundation all over face and neck with a sponge, foundation brush or fingers. 2. Look in the mirror and suck in your cheeks. This will instantly show you exactly where your cheekbones are. Sweep bronzing powder/cream bronzer with a flat-headed bronzer brush just slightly under cheekbones from the hollows to your ear. 3. Sweep bronzer in circular motions directly on temples. 4. Contour along the hairline. 5. Contour directly underneath your jawline. 6. Blend edges with a sponge. Source: www.thebeautydepartment.com
