Five Makeup  Mistakes to Avoid

 By Lisa Kovalovich

Stop! Before you make another beauty move, read our cheat sheet on the most  common beauty mistakes (and how to avoid them):

Mistake No. 1: Lining Lips in Dark Liner
Very dark lip liner only works if you're wearing very dark lipstick. Otherwise, it leaves you with obvious ring-around-the-mouth. It also accentuates any fine lines.

Fix: Invest in a neutral-colored pencil that works with all lipstick shades.

Mistake No. 2: Not Allowing Your Moisturizer to Absorb
When powder, concealer, foundation or blush is applied right over dewy moisturizer, the makeup tends to slip and slide around your face.

Fix: Give your moisturizer 10 minutes to sink in before putting on cosmetics.

Mistake No. 3: Picking a Too Light Concealer
Concealer's purpose is to hide dark areas on your face. If you pick one  that's much lighter than your skin, you'll wind up calling even more attention to the area you're trying to hide. And wouldn't you rather have natural dark circles than crepey gray concealer circles?

Fix: Buy concealer in a shade that exactly matches your skin or is just one shade lighter.

Mistake No. 4: Contouring
Trying to sculpt cheekbones with brown powder usually backfires, making the  feature you're trying to hide more noticeable. Plus, all that brown powder looks a lot like dirt on your face!

Fix: For the most natural look, apply blush to the apples of your  cheeks. The color will highlight the round part of your cheek, naturally making the hollow underneath more pronounced.

Mistake No. 5: Wearing Too-Bright Makeup Colors
Bold pinks and oranges can look great for special occasions, but for everyday, they're too harsh and can age your skin.

Fix: Choose a neutral makeup palette based on browns, roses and  beiges. These tones work for all skin colors and give a look that's glowing, not garish.
