How to Change your Look without Spending Money
Would you like to have a makeover? You've probably looked in the mirror more than once and wished that you look different. Whether you're lazy or don't want to spend money, you may feel held back. We tend to associate change with money: money for the hairdresser, money for clothes, shoes etc., which can all add up, and before you've even started, you've given up. However, feeling good about yourself is vital for your well-being. What's more, you don't need money to change your look. You can achieve it by following just a few tips, without spending a penny! In OneHowTo.com, we explain how to change your look without spending money.
Steps to follow:
The trick lies in the little things. If you make several changes, however simple, you'll be able to change your look without spending money. Try changing the eyeliner you use.
- If you don't normally use it, try to create an outline on your eyelids and see how you can change your image.
- If you normally outline your eyes with a thick outline, try to stop using eyeliner.
- You can highlight your eyes and intensify your look with a soft outline around the eyes.
Another way of using makeup to update your image is by using lipstick. Lipstick has the most impact and you don't need to resort to a traditional red to impress. As many women fear losing their natural look , they don't tend to wear lipstick. However, you can wear simple nude tones or lip gloss.
By wearing an unexpected mix of accessories, you can change your look, whilst appearing more modern at the same time. If you wear traditional, plain colors, opt for prints. There are endless choices of prints such as polka dots, stripes, tartan, flowery, abstract, etc. Imagine how effective a pattern can be for everyone. They can add a touch of personality to transform your look.
You don't have to renew your entire wardrobe. You can just add a touch of freshness and make a difference with accessories. Dare to wear shirts with collars, sequined jeans, skirts with a sporty touch. Power to the imagination!
Speaking of accessories, earrings can create an amazing transformation to your look. Some are small,whilst others can be big, pearls, rings, pendants, bold, discreet... Just by changing the style of your earrings or by wearing some you don't usually wear, you'll see how you can drastically change your look.
Try it and, once you've got dressed and you're ready to go out, try doing a soft outline around your eyes, a nude color lipstick and a polka dot scarf. Stand in front of the mirror, look at yourself, and then put some nice earrings in. Don't you look better?
