Play up the good points

Never, EVER go to bed with makeup on. Clogged pores are the enemy of flawless, spot-free skin.

Once a week, massage your face using a gentle exfoliating scrub. It will get rid of dead skin and brighten up your complexion instantly.

If you have clear skin, a dusting of bronzer or tinted moisturizer is all you need for a base.

To cover pimples while still maintaining a natural glow, opt for the sheerest foundation you can find and use concealer to lightly blend in blemishes. Chose concealer that is one shade lighter than your foundation for flawless, invisible cover.

Choose blusher that glistens rather than shimmers. Blend it in to the apples of your cheeks for a fresh-faced glow.

After makeup, try dabbing some baby powder over your face with a brush to give it a radiant glow. But remember — a little goes a long way — you don’t want to end up looking like Morticia Adams.
