Nothing beats a sun-kissed look. What if you weren’t able to hit the beach last summer? Or, get an exposure to give you that “glow”? That’s where bronzer comes in. You’ve got to try Motives Pressed Bronzer. The right bronzer, applied properly, can give you that perfect sun-kissed look in 1-2-3 (with or without the summer exposure) with the rule of 3.
You may be wondering what the Rule of 3 is. It’s a stroke you do with make up using a powder brush in a number 3 shape:

Step #1: Brush beginning in your temples,
Step #2: Get down to your cheeks (a bit on your nose, as if you’ve been sun-touched)
Step #3: Daub a little on your chin.



You do the Rule of 3 with bronzer to project a “sun” touched effect. In your face, it’s the temples, cheeks and chin that are shone on by the sun.  Now that you’re all set with how you’re going to achieve that sun-kissed look, it’s time you know how to identify the right kind of bronzer:

  • The right kind of bronzer can give you more than a sun-kissed look all-year round. You can also use it to enhance some of your features by using it as a definer. Motives Pressed Bronzer is compact—easy to carry and apply.
  • The right kind of bronzer also has healthy ingredients. Motives Pressed Bronzer has Vitamins C&E to help maintain your skin’s natural collagen and moisture for a youthful glow. It also has honeysuckle extracts and palmitic acids for further skin protection.
Lastly, you have to remember that bronzers are created as accessories. They aren’t stand alone make-up. Always remember to properly moisturize and apply foundation (or, pressed powder) before adding up bronzer.

We look so glam after make-up. Do we look the same a few hours later? Nah. Can we? Yes. One of the troubles women on-the-go deal with are smudging eyeliners. We want that eyeliner to stay as we’ve applied it, don’t we? So, here are a few tips for you to achieve that wow-liner look:
  1. Use a lasting, waterproof eyeliner such as Motives Luxe Precision Eye Line with a felt-tip that glides easily and in a quick-dry formula (comes in handy when you’re in a rush)
  2. Apply a primer like Motives Eye Base, esp. if you tend to have oily lids. Its formula works on all skin types (even if you’re sensitive). Natural oils contribute to smudging and creasing your liner.
  3. If your lids are extra oily you can apply loose powder over the base and some eye shadow powder over your eyeliner line before setting your eyeliner (whether it’s pencil, cream or ink you want to use).
  4. Keep in mind that you’ve got to keep your eyeliner as close to the lid as possible so you don’t leave in a gap. Motives Luxe Precision Eye Line glides on easily and has a precise application even with a single stroke.
