101 terrific tips, trends, tricks and finishing touches

41. Stop raccoon-eye, makeup meltdown by sweeping a little translucent powder under your eyes.
42. Make Up Artist Zit Tip: Dab a few drops of Visine on to an angryu red blemish -- it gets the red out! Honest! (Advil and ice compresses help too!)
43. To create the illusion of fuller lips, put a dab of shimmer right in the center of your lower lip.
44. To hide a really red pimple, tone down the red by using a green cover-up, such as Physician's Formula.
45. For smoother lips, apply lip balm, let it soak in for about 10 minutes, then apply your lip color.
46. If your concealer's too gunky, mix it with a little moisturizer on the back of your hand, then do your cover-up job.
47. To keep eyeshadow in its place, sweep some translucent powder on your lids before applying your shadow.
48. Big night out--and your mascara's all dried up? It may be tempting, but don't add water! (It introduces bacteria and makes the mascara sloppy.) Instead, hold the tube--with the cap on tight--under a stream of warm water for a few minutes and you'll get a couple more applications out of it.
49. To keep potted lip stuff from getting under your nails, scoop it out of the pot backwards -- so it goes on top of your nail rather than under it!
50. Once you've covered up that zit, be delicate when applying foundation. Pat it over your blemish; don't rub.
