How can you make your lips pinker?
There are many different ways and they have all worked for me i don't know if were on the same track here or not but my lips are naturally quite red and these options tone them down a bit...
1) you can try sugar (any type) mixed in with olive oil (this one works for me the best) and also when your putting it on your lips you want to use a soft brissled toothbrush to put it on that way it makes it kinda be on there better
2) plain old honey (works well also)
3)just keep your lips nice and moisturized all the time (that one works but youve got to stay on top of it 24/7
4)lemon juice Ive heard but ive tried it once and all i have found it to do is just dry out my lips even more
and thats pretty much all i got for you oh and also if you do these things youll see if you stop for about 2 days your lips will come back normal and so what you need to do is do it everynight before you go to bed but dont do it like during the day cause thats over the top but just do it once a day and the right time is right before you go to sleep and i gurantee you it will work and its so inexpensive because you probably have all this stuff at home but if you dont then you can just go out and buy the cheap kind its works on your lips the same
and one more way but this time with makeup if you have a lip color and its a light pink color and its just doesnt stay on a while then try this because trust me it works for me everyday i use it
what youll need:
1) foundation (liquid)
2)face powder
3) lip color (should be lipstick)
4) and if you want you can put gloss on top and its just the same with staying on
5)lip liner if you want because it helps the color stay eve more (should be a color only a shade or two of the color of your lipstick or the color of your lips)
6) foundation brush, powder puff
steps: first take the foundation and its brush and put as much as you need to cover all your lips your going to see a line there with your real lip color and the foundation color press your lips together once softly and then take your powder and powder puff slide the puff on the powder as many times as you think you need on your lips put it on your lips and especially where that line is to smooth it out and it works and then line isnt there then take your lip color and put it as much as you want on your lips rub it in get the corners even you know everything youve got to do take your powder and puff again and do once more what i said about the powder over the lip color but lightly put your lip liner if you want it helps more and it doesnt even have to be a dark color the lipliner can even just be 1 shade more and if you want lip gloss doesnt matter works all the same even from the moister of the lip gloss lol so i hoped all of this helped, good luck!! ;P

How do you Contact Manufacturer of Ultima II?
Ultima II was made by Revlon.
A long time ago, Revlon was still owned by Charles Revson, who founded the company. He wanted a makeup to sell in drugstores, which was Revlon, and one to sell in department stores, which was Ultima II. In the 1980s, Revlon was purchased by a corporate raider named Ron Perelman. When a company is purchased in a "leveraged buyout," companies do whatever they can to make money to pay off the huge loans they took out to buy the place. Perelman decided to quit selling makeup in department stores (cosmetics counters are very expensive to operate, which is one of the reasons department store makeup is so expensive) and put Ultima II in drugstores. They ran into a second problem: drugstores only have so much room for makeup. Drugstores rent out their shelf space, and by the time Perelman decided to bring Ultima II into drugstores the shelves were already taken. So...take space away from the Revlon brand to fit in this new one, or just get rid of Ultima II? They chose the second path.
Ultima II is still available in China, where it is popular--so if you see it at an online store, it's coming from there.

How do you apply discreet makeup if you are a male?
Applying discreet makeup for men follows the same basic principles for women, except you should be more sparing and careful about applying makeup as you want your face to look as natural as possible. Having "cakey" makeup on your face is the last thing you want as a guy.
It is highly important to make sure you have all the right materials and the right colour for your skin. Being aware of your skin type also means buying products specially designed for your skin. I understand it can be slightly embarrassing for a male to ask for help with buying makeup products!
Here are the basic steps I would recommend for applying discreet makeup:
1. Make sure you wash and clean your face first using a exfoliant. The exfoliant is designed to remove dead skin by using microbeads in the chemical to "sand" away dead cells. When applying the exfoliant, wet your face first and then massage the cream onto your face making circular movements. Rinse thoroughly and dry your face using a dry towel. Don't rub your face with the towel; a dabbing movement is best.
2. Apply a toner if you wish to. This step is not essential however. The purpose of a toner is to try and restore the skin to its normal pH level.
3. Apply a moisturizing cream to your face, massaging it gently into your face. Remember to leave it for a few minutes so it soaks into the skin before proceeding with the next step.
4. Once you have moisturized, I would suggest applying a concealer to hide any obvious blemishes or skin tone variation. Simply dab the concealer on with your brush and rub it in when you are done applying it. A lot of people suggest putting the concealer on after the foundation, but I personally think it looks better applying the concealer before putting the foundation on. You can always re-apply more concealer once your foundation is on.
5. Applying the foundation is probably the most important step in discreet makeup for men. When applying your foundation, make brushing movements upwards so you don't stretch your skin down unnecessarily. Be very sparing with your application with foundation as you want to form many small layers as opposed to a thick one. This will make it more discreet. Remember to pay attention to the side of your face, the jaw-line and your T-section (forehead and nose).
Do not go over the top with applying foundation as it will give your face the "cakey" look we are trying very much to avoid. One or two layers of foundation should suffice for discreet makeup.

Is there anything wrong with wearing makeup?
Answer 1
There is nothing wrong with wearing makeup. The only problems people may have with makeup is how much you wear, how intense you make your makeup and at what age you wear makeup but it's not something that is wrong. Just try to find the right makeup looks to match your skin tone and face.
Answer 2
Makeup contains chemicals that are unnatural to be placed on human (or animal) skin.
In historic times, makeup contained products such as arsenic, which is a poison - as a result, people's faces began to blister, burn and slowly peel to become unappealing, to the extent that they wore more makeup to cover up the issues, which just worsened them.
These days genuine makeup products do not contain these chemicals any more, but they do contain "replacements". While these replacements are not poisonous, they can still cause skin issues in some people, such as a common condition known as irritant contact dermatitis.
There is still the risk that cheap makeup products imported from developing countries, such as China, contain harmful chemicals, such as arsenic (which also makes them illegal) - which is why you should never import your products.
Sharing makeup and makeup tools such as brushes can also cause problems of their own. Bacteria from one person is passed onto the other person via shared makeup tools, which can cause bacterial issues such as serious eye infections which could damage your sight permanently. It has recently been discovered that diseases are passed on through makeup, which you can find an article about in the related links below.
It has also been noticed by dermatologists that women who frequently use makeup actually age quicker than women who use little or no makeup, because the harsh chemicals dries out the skin, even if you use moisturisers, which quickens the ageing process. To overcome this, many women use more makeup and products like wrinkle cream, which just dries their skin even more, again speeding up the ageing process.
Your skin is covered in pores, which the body uses to expel waste (sweat) and and breathe air to feed the skin cells. If makeup is covering or blocking these pores then you will get a waste build up on your skin behind the makeup, because it cannot be expelled into the air, resulting in a face full of bacteria, which will encourage the growth of acne. Blocked pores preventing skin from breathing can skill off skin cells, again speeding up the ageing process and resulting in less defence against acne build up.
Some religions will not allow you to wear makeup, such as some branches of Islam or pentecostal. Doing so could result in rejection within the religious community.
To avoid the issues noted above, you should avoid wearing too much makeup and avoid wearing makeup when it is not necessary to do so (ie being around family members - they know what you look like without it anyway).
You can also buy products that are hypo-allergenic, which means they have less chance of causing skin irritation issues.
Noncomedogenic makeup products do not block pores. And nonacnegenic makeup will not trap sweat and therefore will not encourage acne.
