We may not really be able to afford expensive visits to the dentist like celebrities can, but we can definitely use their beauty tricks that will also "whiten" our teeth and give us a real Hollywood smile!
It's no secret that teeth become increasingly yellow over the years. Also, not all of us are born with the same pigmentation, which means that some naturally have whiter teeth and some have more yellowish teeth. So how do you ensure the sparkling white Hollywood smile that many stars boast? You may think that the only "secret" is in the many hours spent at the dentist, but we can trust you that this is not always the case. Celebrities also use some makeup tricks, which you can also use for a white smile. With them, the teeth will appear whiter, even though they are not.
Apply highlighter
The highlighter is used to emphasize certain features of the face, which makes us look more lively and fresh. Of course, this also applies to a smile. Apply the illuminator like this to the areas above the cheekbones, on the tip of the nose and above the middle of the upper lip. And if you apply it to the inner corners of your eyes, you will optically enlarge them."Win-win", so!
Define the edge of the lips with a pencil in the color "nude"
Lip liner is almost as important as the lipstick itself. In addition to creating the appearance of fuller lips, it also helps the lipstick stay on the lips for longer. If you want to achieve whiter teeth, wipe the edge of the lips in the "nude" shade by starting from the center of the lips and then connecting the lines at the corners. Then apply lipstick in the same shade or darker (up to two shades).
Shift your attention to your eyes
Applying a certain "make-up" is crucial in drawing attention away from the lips and towards the eyes. Be sure to cross black eyeliner and lots of mascara off the list and find a solution in blue shades (light blue, turquoise, green), which will act in contrast to the teeth and thus emphasize their whiteness. Also, eliminate orange eyeshadows from your makeup list, as they make teeth look more yellowish.
Darker complexion
Summer is really over, and to achieve a dark complexion, a "bronzer" will now come to our aid. This will make our teeth look whiter and shinier. Choose matte "bronzer", to contrast with the pearly shine of the teeth. Pay special attention to the area of the cheekbones, and you can apply "bronzer" as a highlighter on the tip of the nose and above the middle of the upper lip. Of course, you can try the "bronzer" on the whole face, but be careful not to overdo it.
Choose lipsticks with cool tones
If you choose a lipstick with cold or blue undertones, the smile will look brighter, Beyoncé's make-up artist Sir John also advises. Bolder girls can choose strong purple tones, and you will also achieve the same effect with lipstick in fuchsia, in cherry color with blue undertones or with "nude" lipsticks with brown undertones. As with eyeshadows, avoid lipsticks in orange or copper shades, as they will make your teeth look (even more) yellowish.
Don't skimp on lip gloss
Clear gloss is a great tool to achieve brighter and fuller lips, and your teeth will look whiter. For a perfect smile, moisturize your lips well with balm, then apply lipstick with a blue undertone, in the middle of the lips but a lot of transparent gloss.
