On many occasions, because we do not remember to buy it or because we run out at the moment and we do not have any other replacement, we ran out of that makeup product that we needed at that precise moment. What can we do then? Very easy: find another beauty product (cosmetic) that can replace the finish. And realistically, few beauty products can be irreplaceable (mascara, any more?).
Next, we are going to tell you which beauty products can replace many others. Take note!
On the face
For the face, the products that we usually need, thus in general terms, are the following: makeup base, translucent powders, concealer, illuminator, contour, blush or blush. Of all these products, the only one that may not be substituted for any other are translucent powders that are used to seal makeup, tint and minimize pores. All others can be replaced by others:
- If proofreader We run out: If the concealer runs out we can always cover the spots and possible dark circles with the makeup base itself. If we normally use a single layer of makeup, for the areas that have more spots or dark circles, we must influence a little more and apply a little more amount. If this does not work and we have makeup bases of different shades, we can use a base with a slightly lighter shade that we usually use frequently. On top we will put the usual one.
- If what we run out of is the makeup. Horror! But do not panic. The washed face effect It is worn and even the famous are joining this new trend. If what you worry about not using makeup base are marks, pimples, spots or the paleness of your face, this has an easy solution. With the concealer, cover all those imperfections that your face may have (which surely are not as many as you see); Next, blend your fingertips, a brush or sponge well so that you don't see too many cuts. And the next thing will be to apply a compact powder with some makeup color ... Done! Sometimes, or almost always, rather, less is more. If you look too pale, put a little blush on your cheeks, and that's it.
- Are you missing your blush? If your favorite blush is over, you have three solutions: you can find another one that you like its shade and goes well with the rest of your makeup; You can also look for an eyeshadow similar to your blush and apply it as if it were the same; or last but not least, you can look for a lipstick, similar to the tone of your blush and apply it in small dabs. Then blend with your fingers and there will be a super pretty, flattering and youthful 'glow' effect.
- El illuminator You can replace it with a light eyeshadow with some shine ... It does not leave the same result but it works just as well. Don't go overboard with the ones that contain some glitter. We want to shine, not look like light bulbs.
- If, on the other hand, what you do not have at hand is the boundaryTo further enhance your features, look for a brown eyeshadow that is perfect for doing this type of contour. All makeup and eyeshadow palettes have various shades of brown. Some will be fine, for sure.
For the eyes
If you have gone on a trip, for example, and you have forgotten to put the palette of shades, you can use a little contour brown tone and do a bit of 'smoky eyes' in your eyes. You can also use a pink or coral shade of the blush.
If, on the other hand, what you have forgotten is the eyelinerYou can do something similar if with a wet brush, you take a little black eyeshadow (or the color you want your eyeliner). It won't last the same but it works.
If you don't have on hand eyebrow pencilYou can also take a little brown shadow or the tone of your eyebrows with a brush and draw it anyway.
If you have forgotten the eyelash mask, we are very sorry,… It cannot be replaced!
For lips
Si tu lipstick Favorite is missing, broken or run out, with a little eye shadow, the same color, and a creamy lip gloss or cocoa, you can add a touch of perfect color to your lips. Lips with color, and also, hydrated ...
As you can see, few things have no solution or substitution ... And this works for everything, not just for makeup.
