We all have a favorite beauty tip … maybe it is something passed on from your mom or your best friend. Or, maybe you are a professional makeup artist. Please share your BEST beauty tip with all us beauty-addicts.

Here is our favorite tip this week:

So we all know that we’re supposed to get a fresh mascara every 3 months…but for those of us who stubbornly hold on to old tubes we have the secret to making it last. When it starts getting all clumpy and thick, try placing the tube in some warm water to get the product liquefied again. Our favorite mascara of the moment is Maybelline’s Lash Stilleto. You get beautiful results, but it also conditions lashes so they just get better with time!

Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer

Usually concealers thick enough to cover dark eye circles are creamy and not really appropriate for blemishes. We liked Maybelline Mineral Power Natural Perfecting Concealer because it hid our dark circles completely, but since it’s oil, talc, and fragrance free, we could use it on other imperfections. Now we don’t need two concealers- we can see why this product won beauty awards from Oprah Magazine and Marie Claire.

Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lipcolor

We all know by now that sunscreen is a must, but many people are unaware of just how much to apply. You need about a teaspoon for your face, and a shot glass for your body. It’s a lot of rubbing in, but it’s necessary to get the coverage you need. And don’t forget to protect your lips. We like Maybelline Moisture Extreme Lipcolor. It has an SPF of 15, and with 56 shades every woman is bound to find her perfect color. It also moisturizes like a lip balm, so you don’t have to worry about the heat parching your lips.

Maybelline Expertwear Eye Shadow

When you’re tired, adding a touch of shimmer eyeshadow on the inner corner of the eyes can make you look refreshed. A golden color is great for darker complexions, and for pale complexions try a silvery shade. We really liked the 50 Sunlit Bronze Maybelline Expertwear Eye Shadow Quad for the summer. Each shadow is marked with the best part of the eye to apply the colors. Best of all, it’s crease and fade resistant, a must in this hot weather.

Maybelline Shine Seduction Glossy Lipcolor

We were first drawn to Maybelline Shine Seduction Glossy Lipcolor by the slick modern packaging and unique applicator tip. However, we were pleased to see that what’s inside is just as great. We tried this 2007 Best of Beauty Award winning lip gloss in shade 720 Sunkissed. It’s a universally flattering bronze color that goes on sheer, while the formula’s aqua botanicals and Vitamin E helps keep lips smooth. Another bonus is that the gloss is light weight and non sticky.

Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume Washable Mascara

If only all mascara tubes were the same as Maybelline Define-A-Lash Volume Washable Mascara! The innovative tube makes it so the brush has the perfect amount of mascara, so you can keep adding layers without getting clumps. Best of all, when you wash your face at night you don’t have to scrub your eyes or use elaborate makeup removers. This mascara comes out with regular soap and water. The mascara brush is especially shaped to help you define even the smallest lashes.

Tip: When using an eyelash curler, one squeeze as close to the base of the lashes as possible is all you need.
