Your Questions Answered - When to apply Eye Primer

Heyy Eman,

Your Videos are great and really helpful! I watched your Primer video and it really helped me, I just needed a small question answered. Do you apply concealer/foundation before or after you apply Eye primer??


As you apply foundation on your face, apply a little foundation on your eye lids as well to get rid of any discoloration. After you apply your foundation, apply powder all over your face including over your eye lids. This will make the surface smooth. Once you've completed those steps, apply eye primer on your lids. Follow these steps and your eyeshadow will go on perfectly.

Good luck!

Trend Alert - Pretty Pink lips

Pretty Pink Lips are a trend you can definately use this holidays. They are a great alternative for a nude lip to give your face a pop of color. And if you're scared of doing a scarlett red lip, try the pink. Pick brighter shades like hot pinks and warm pinks, nothing to pale. Pretty pink lips can be worn with either a dramatic eye or a nude eye.

Check out some of these celebrities sporting this fun trend.

Your Questions Answered - How to Make Large Pores look smaller

Hi Eman

Gone through your videos and they were fantastic .
I've got open pores on my face and I want to use something that can fill my pores so my skin looks smooth. Even after using foundation, my skin is oily. Is there any kind of camuflague that i can use?


So you want to make your pores look smaller. Here are a few tips:
Large pores are caused by two things: genetics and age. There are a few options to deal with large pores.

One option is to go to a dermatologist or a spa to get microdermabrasion treatments. These treatments are a type of facial that gently sloughs off the dead surface layer of skin.

Another option is to use products that have low-strength topical retinol or vitamin C. Both of these are antioxidants that work to increase collagen and elastin production to give your skin a smoother appearance. Try either The Body Shop Vitamin C Super Charged Serum or Neutrogena Pore Refining Cream. Microdermabraison treatments will also help the antioxidant creams penetrate the skin more quickly.

Another option is to conceal large pores with makeup. Start by applying a primer. Primer is a product that evens out skin tone and prevents foundation from sinking into pores. After it dries, apply your foundation. As a final step, use a kabuki brush to apply a light dusting of loose powder. This will make the surface of your skin appear smoother.
