1. Exfoliate Skin
Although there are tons of makeup tips for college girls that start out with colors and lipstick versus lip gloss, you've got to start with the your skin. It is the blank canvas that can make your makeup look beautiful or bad. So exfoliate girls, that's the very first tip for college girls that I have!
2. Use a Good Moisturizer
After you exfoliate, the next step is finding a really good moisturizer. I actually love Olay moisturizers or Clean and Clear, but that's just me. What are some of the best moisturizers that you've found, girls? Also, make sure that the moisturizer matches your skin type, whether you have oily, dry or sensitive skin.
Frequently asked questions
3. Mineral Foundation
I've found that mineral foundation is probably the best foundation for any college girls, as it is super easy to put on as well as a huge time saver! For me, mineral foundation works fantastic to cover up any blemishes or imperfections that I have – and it takes way less time to put on than liquid!
4. Creamy Colored Eye Shadow
The best thing about college is the fact that you can switch it up a little bit and find out what really works for you. Creamy eyeshadow is the one thing that worked for me – and the color cream always seemed to be a safe bet. The reason I opted for cream all of the time was the fact that it was easy to put on and the color cream is neutral and works great no matter what you are wearing!
5. Contour
Contouring and making sure that you are keeping up that summer glow is another great college makeup tip! Whether you are just looking to add a bit of definition to your bone structure or you are looking to define your cheekbones a little bit more, contouring is a great way to do all of that!
6. Light Bronzer
Bronzer is another must have for all college girls. The trick about bronzer though is that you don't ever want to use too much. That can make you look orange, but just a few little swipes of a brush over your cheeks and chin can really give you that summer glow and make you look beautiful!
7. Lengthening Mascara
I use lengthening mascara for everything. Maybelline is my favorite brand and I've got to say, using a lengthening mascara is a great way to really make your eyes pop out, without being too dramatic. Also, with this type of mascara, it can save you time, because just one or two coats will do it!
8. Tinted Lip Balm
Finally, a tinted lip balm is the last makeup tip for college girls that we're going to talk about. I like tinted lip balms because they aren't quite lipsticks and they aren't huge lip glosses – they are chic and shiny, yet easier to put on.
Being in college in hard, but that doesn't mean that putting your makeup on has to be. What other makeup tips for college life have you girls encountered? Give up the goods!
