One of the best things about makeup, is just a small amount can enhance our features in all the right ways. While how much, what kind, and which techniques to use are of constant controversy, the most important thing about wearing makeup is that you look and feel like yourself. There are several ways to naturally enhance your face without looking like you had a few glasses of wine and took a sharpie to your eyebrows.

Here are my 5 signs that you need to change your makeup routine, that will have you feeling way better, and looking like the very best you:

1.You Don't Know Your Best Features: There's a specific feature on one's face that's what they consider to be their best. For instance, the feature I love the most on my face is my eyes. I love the color, and how they change from blue to green depending on what I'm wearing. Whether it's your eyes, lips, cheekbones, or eyebrows, pick the feature you are most proud of and really enhance it, whether it's with a vibrant lipstick, beautiful eyeshadows, or a dewy highlighter. This will make you feel comfortable in any setting, 

2. You're Constantly Touching Up: Makeup should not be so high maintenance that you have to touch it up every 30 minutes. If your foundation is too oily and you're constantly having to powder, then switch to a mattifying primer or lighter formula to make the skin look more natural. If your eyeshadow is too thick and continually creases, use an eyelid primer.

The last thing you need to do is be in the bathroom making sure you look perfect multiple times daily.

3.Things Look Streaky, Not Blended: Have you ever seen someone who tried to contour their face so much it looks really muddy and streaky? Or applied way too much brow filler that tends to run down their face mid dance party? If your makeup looks heavy and streaky, it's time to switch your products and start blending properly. Instead of using dark contouring powder, switch to a lighter cream based bronzer or powder. If your eye brows are too strong, use a soft pencil and brush to fill them in.

4. You're Breaking Out: Using the wrong kind of makeup or skin care products can cause you to break out, which absolutely nobody has time for. If you've noticed your skin is breaking out, use the process of elimination to understand what could possibly be the problem. Clean your brushes on a consistent basis to make sure that germs don't build up, and eliminate anything from your routine that isn't serving your skin. Got stubborn breakouts? Switch to a skin care routine that specifically targets acne.

5. You're Having Morning Melt-Downs: You should never feel frustrated when it comes to your makeup. In fact, I'm a firm believer that applying makeup should be fun and therapeutic, and there's no reason to get all stressed out over it. Figure out a simple look that you can apply easily in the morning, that doesn't get you all hot and bothered before leaving for work.
