Teen girls may not always know the best ways to achieve a healthy, beautiful look at an affordable price. But if you fall into this category, don't panic. There are several fast, easy, affordable beauty tips that any teen girl should know. Here are the top 10:
1. Combat Greasy Hair
Greasy hair is a normal result of changing hormones. All you have to do is pat some baby powder, if you have blonde hair, or bronzer, if you have darker hair, along your hairline.
2. Drink Lots of Water
This is a no-brainer at any point in life. Drinking a lot of water helps ensure glowing skin, healthy hair and general wellbeing.
3. Fabric Softener Sheets for Great-Smelling Hair
If you don't have time for a shower and beauty routine, you can always run a fabric softener sheet over your hair to get rid of any odors.
4. Homemade Cream Eyeshadow
Don't have the cash to buy fancy cream eyeshadow? Don't worry; you can use your powder eyeshadows to achieve the same results. Just use a wet brush.
5. Proper Perfume Placement
If you want to make a sweet impression when shaking hands or hugging, just apply perfume to your wrists and/or behind your ears.
6. Side Part = Instant Hairstyle Change
If you want a new hairstyle but don't have the guts to cut it all off, try a side part to achieve a new look instantly. All you need is a comb and some hairspray. Clips, headbands or pins also enhance the look.
7. Skin Moisturizer for Hair Flyaways
Girls with thin hair often experience bad flyaways, but all you need is a little moisturizer to get rid of them. Just rub a tiny bit in the palms of your hands andapply to the stray hairs.
8. The Many Uses of Visine
You probably know that Visine works for red eyes after long study sessions, but you may not know that it also works for clearing up blemishes.
9. The Natural Cure for Polish-Stained Nails
Sometimes dark fingernail polish can leave stains even after you've removed it. To combat this, all you need is a lemon. Insert your fingertips into lemon halves for about five minutes and watch those stains vanish.
10. Try Some Vaseline
This affordable, time-tested product is a cure-all for chapped lips, dry skin, messy eye makeup, avoiding dye stains around hairlines, and more. Just make sure to apply sparingly, as too much can cause breakouts.

MAC Blush - Melba is a really pretty peachy pink matte color. It works great on my medium (nc35) skin and is really easy to wear. This is the mac blush that I wear on days when i'm not too sure what I want to wear or if I have lots of shimmer on my eyelids. The color is really pigmented so you won't run out of it really fast as it doesn't take much to show up on my skin. I'm assuming on lighter people you would need a lot less to get a good amount of color on your cheeks. I've had this blush for about a year and haven't even hit pan yet and I have gotten a lot of use out of it. I have so many different blushes but this is one I will always come back to and use so I would definitely repurchase!

One of the world's most popular brands of makeup fashion is Makeup Art Cosmetics, or MAC makeup as it is more commonly known. This company is owned by Estee Lauder but has a totally separate image from its parent company. It promotes itself as a hip and dynamic, current yet forward thinking makeup artist haven. Many professional makeup artist kits are home to products from this cosmetic line and even many makeup enthusiasts, young and old alike, dream of becoming a MAC makeup artist.
The prestige of this position has to do with career development, skill enhancement and easy acquisition to new and existing products. MAC prides itself on its provision of periodic intensive training for its staff in a fun and comfortable environment. Once you prove yourself as passionate and a quick learner, there are always more opportunities to move up within the company and the industry. In fact, once your resume can boast of a MAC position, you are deemed a more favourable candidate for other makeup artist jobs, whether they are freelance or within other companies.
So exactly how do you become a MAC makeup fashion artist? Well, the road is not always a straight forward one and it may take several tries before you are offered a permanent position. However, there are a few tips that can assist you to land your dream makeup job.
You should already have some working knowledge base of the company, its products and what it stands for. Just as equally important are skills in applying makeup to different skin tones and types. Even though once you've been hired the company would send you to more intensive training by professionals in the business, it is hardly likely that it would hire you if you have less than moderate skills.
1. Find a photographer, a stylist and a range of models to present a professional portfolio. Some of the best of these to find are those that are just starting off themselves in the business. They would be skilful and eager to help you as they would be building their own portfolios at the same time.
2. Practise doing makeup fashion on as many people as you can, preferably using as many of the MAC products that you can get your hands on. This way you do not only become intimately familiar with the products and their uses but you also become more comfortable with dealing with a wide range of skin tones and types. Send out flyers at malls and on online social media networks to get an adequate response.
3. Take pictures of everyone you do makeup for. Even if you do not have a photographer and stylist with you for every appointment, always walk with your digital camera and fashion magazines. The camera should take out the before and after shots and the magazines would help you set up appropriate poses.
4. Get your pictures professionally developed in 9 by 12" or 11 by 14" sizes. Put them all in a binder that has plastic protectors to secure your work.
5. Work on creating a video tutorial also. Narrate every step you take on your model and explain why. Get the video edited professionally so that the quality is high.
6. Submit your resume, portfolio and video to the nearest MAC store or counter in your area. Do not just leave it there and trust that it would reach the right hands. Request a personal audience with the manager to go through your portfolio and enquire how soon you would be able to be interviewed for a position.
