How to apply eye liner : LBASS Cosmetics Tip
Eyeliner can make even the smallest eyes appear larger. Applying it correctly is the key. You don't want the line to be too dark, harsh and obvious or you risk looking overdone. 
You can use an eyeliner pencil, a liquid liner or an eyeliner brush dipped into a deep shadow to line eyes. If you use a pencil, set the line with eye shadow because penciled lines tend to melt and won't stay put all day. To make sharpening an eyeliner pencil a little easier, store it in the refrigerator or freezer. This will harden it, which will make for easier sharpening as the tip will not smudge or break as often.
Step 1: Tilt your head back slightly and bring your eyes to a half-open state. This creates a good angle for application, while allowing you to see what you're doing, holding the skin of your upper lid taut, trace the upper lashes from the outer corner of the eye and work your way in the center of the eyelid. If it’s more comfortable to work from the inside out, go ahead, but you can start at the mid-point of the eyelid for most looks, with a pencil or an eyeliner brush dipped in a dark eye shadow. For a more dramatic look, make the outside line a bit thicker than the inside and extend it just beyond the lash line.
Step 2: Once the line is set, trace over it with a liquid liner. Hand unsteady? Rest the elbow of your dominant arm on a hard surface, and rest your wrist on your face.
Step 3: Set liner with an eye shadow.
Step 4: Apply eye shadow or an eye pencil to lower lashes. Using an eye shadow brush, apply a deep-hued eye shadow along the bottom lashes from the outside in. Unless you have wide-set eyes, don't line the entire lower lid. Instead, stop halfway across. If you're using a pencil, smudge the line with your finger so it looks more natural.
Extra tips: To make eyes appear wider, trace the inner rims of eyes with a white pencil or highlight the inner corner of the eyes with a light shimmer powder.
Throw out the cheap applicators that come with your makeup. Investing in a good set of makeup brushes is key to a flawless face.
You can also camouflage your eye’s shortcomings with a few eyeliner tricks. Here are a few tips for some common issues:
If your eyes are set very close together, begin your eyeliner at the inner corner and extend it just a bit beyond the outer corner of the eye.
If your eyes are very wide-set, apply the liner all the way to the inner corner of the lid and use mascara mainly on the center lashes.
If your eyes are deeply set, remember the less is more theory. Stay as close to the lash line as possible and use a thin line.
Small eyes will look larger when you keep the eyeliner to the outer half of the eye. For round eyes, line only the outer half of the eyelid and extend the liner slightly out and up at the outer corner of the eye.
If you have bulging eyes or puffy eyes, use your liner from the inner corner all the way to the outer corner. If you like the look of liner under your eyes, stay inside the rim, not under the lashes, or you will just exaggerate the bulging.
Droopy eyes will perk up if you keep the liner to the edge of the pupil area.
When your eyes are aging and start to get that crepey look, vary the width of the eyeliner so that it is thicker toward the outer part of the eye. Be sure to blend and smudge correctly using a large sponge brush.
If you are fortunate enough to have almond-shaped eyes that are set in proportion to the rest of your face, have fun with the eyeliner, as nearly any look will work great.

How to apply Lip liner & Lipstick : Beautynhealth.com
Lipstick adds the final touch to any makeup application. Lining the lips creates subtle definition and perfects the shape of the lips.
Consider your lipstick color; you’ll do well with colors that match the natural shade of your lips, opting for darker tones that complement your overall coloring. Matte lipsticks offer a muted finish complementary to workday makeup, while satin and gloss finishes the appealing evening looks.
You should use the lip liner that is either neutral or matching to the color of the lipstick.
Always use a liner that is a shade or two darker than your lipstick, stick with the same tone. A dusting of powder or a bit of foundation beneath lipstick can maximize its staying power. Therefore you should apply a light coat of foundation or concealer on your lips. This will act as a base on your lips and also help even out the color of your lipstick.
Apply all other makeup before putting on lip liner and lipstick. Ensure your lips are nice and moist first, and that your pencil is sharp to get a good line.
Draw a thin line along the edge of your lips with a lip liner whose color is one shade darker than your lipstick. Start at the center of the upper lip and work outward. Hug the very outer edges to open up thin lips, and line well within the edges to downplay excessively full lips.
Apply lipstick from the tube or by using a small firm lipstick brush. Coat the lips evenly. Pay special attention to staying within the lips' edges.
Blot to remove any excess color and to even out the texture. Add any gloss for the perfect shine for going out. Remember to touch lips up after a meal, as lipstick easily transfers onto coffee cups, water bottles and soda cans.
