If beauty products had a queen mother, it probably would be our favourite lippies.

From application techniques for flawless wear to getting rid of lipstick stains, these brilliant lipstick tricks are going to change your lip game forever.

1. Use an angled brush

If you are tired of lip liners that don’t quite match your colour or lip brushes that have too-soft bristles and make lipstick application a chore, then an angled eyebrow brush is what you need for applying your lip colour. The bristles are usually firmer, which helps the lipstick go on more evenly, and the edge is very thin, meaning you can get that perfect outline you’ve been dying for, especially on your Cupid’s bow.

2. Get rid of lipstick stains with hairspray

Sometimes, you find a smudge of lipstick on your favourite shirt and your heart sinks because you don’t know how to get it off. But don’t fret. You can easily remove the stain quickly with hairspray. Just spray the stain generously with hairspray, leave to dry for a couple of minutes and then wipe off with a cotton washcloth. Voila! It’s off. If there’s still residual colour left behind, repeat until it’s gone, then wash off the hairspray from your shirt. However, do not use this trick on fabrics like silk or brocade and take your cloth to the dry cleaners if it’s dry clean only.

3. Slightly blunt lip liner for the win

One tip to always keep in mind: never use a freshly-sharpened lip liner because it deposits the colour unevenly and can make your line far too dark and hard to blend. Instead, after sharpening, blunt your liner slightly by drawing a smiley face on your hand for the perfect tip.

4. Custom lipstick with eyeshadow and lip balm

If you suspect that a certain eyeshadow of yours might make the perfect lip colour, well it’s time to make that happen. Apply a clear lip balm to your lips and lightly pat the shadow over it, or mix the shadow (or combination of shadows) and balm together on the back of your hand and then apply with a lip brush. There you have it, the lipstick of your dreams. Do not use lipstick or lip liner as eye makeup though. All eye products are tested to be safe for lips, but not all lip products are guaranteed safe for eyes, and certain pigments can cause allergic reactions.

5. Your favourite lipstick can double as blush

You know those shades of lipstick that look great on your lips? They can also bring a beautiful flush of colour to your cheeks if applied properly. Rub some lipstick on your first two fingers, pat gently on your cheekbones and tap to blend. To reduce the intensity, mix the lipstick with a little bit of light moisturiser on the back of your hand before applying. If you want to shine instead of having just a creamy flush, pat tinted lipgloss along your cheekbones. You will need to touch it up often though. Glosses don’t last on skin!

6. Create the perfect nude

Finding the perfect nude lipstick can be quite a challenge. Instead, make your own. Pat concealer lightly oh your lips, then run a semi-sheer pink, red or cranberry lip gloss over it. The concealer will match your complexion, and the gloss will give you a hint of colour that flatters for your skin tone.

7. No more broken bullets

Your favourite lipstick took the fall? Don’t worry; you can repair it! Slightly melt the broken end of the lipstick with a lighter, then press the two sections back together. Once they’re attached together again, put the entire tube in the fridge for a few minutes to make sure it’s fused and set. Good as new!(Guardian)

President Donald Trump on Sunday suggested that Senate Republicans invoke what’s known as the “nuclear option” to lower the threshold needed to approve funding for the government.

The government entered into a partial shutdown on midnight Saturday, after the Senate voted against a key procedural step to pass a short-term funding bill on Friday night.

As the shutdown entered its second day, Trump tweeted on Sunday, “Great to see how hard Republicans are fighting for our Military and Safety at the Border. The Dems just want illegal immigrants to pour into our nation unchecked. If stalemate continues, Republicans should go to 51% (Nuclear Option) and vote on real, long term budget, no [continuing resolutions]!”

It is true that the short-term funding bill that advanced in the Senate, called a continuing resolution, needed 60 votes in order to avoid a filibuster. What Trump failed to mention is that there were four Republicans who voted against the measure on Friday and five Democrats who voted for it.

A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell said Sunday, following Trump’s tweet, that Republicans in the chamber are opposed to changing Senate rules to end the government shutdown.

Democrats and Republicans have been engaged in a blame game since the shutdown began. Trump tweeted on Saturday that Democrats wanted to give him “a nice present” on the one-year anniversary of his presidency, and added the hashtag, #DemocratShutdown.

Congressional Republicans also laid the blame at Democrats’ feet and named the shutdown after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, calling it the Schumer Shutdown.

Democrats, meanwhile, blamed Trump and the GOP, claiming that the president backed off from a crucial bipartisan deal just hours before the deadline. Democrats also came up with a name for the shutdown: the Trump Shutdown.

Trump aide defends his tweet

Office of Management and Budget Director Mick Mulvaney addressed Trump’s suggestion that McConnell invoke the nuclear option to eliminate the 60-vote threshold that’s currently needed to pass a short-term funding bill on Sunday.

Mulvaney told CNN’s Jake Tapper that while the White House has been “critical of that 60-vote rule since the president took office,” Trump was trying “to shed some light on the fact that if the ordinary rules prevailed — the majority rule in the Senate — the government would be open as of today.”

It is not the first time Trump has advocated for the procedure. Last April, at the president’s repeated urging, Senate Republicans deployed the nuclear option to clear the path for Judge Neil Gorsuch, Trump’s Supreme Court pick, to be confirmed.

Mulvaney said Sunday that the 60-vote rule also addresses the frequent criticism that the GOP should be getting more done when it controls the White House and both chambers of Congress.

“We cannot open the government without Senate Democrat support,” Mulvaney told Tapper. “We don’t have that Senate Democrat support, which is why we are where we are. And one way around it would be to change to 50 votes. Another way around it would be to get some of those Democrats who say back home that they want to work in a bipartisan fashion, they want to work with Republicans, but don’t.”

“There’s a bunch of ways to fix this, we just want it to get fixed,” he added.

This is the first shutdown in US history with one party in control of the House, Senate, and the presidency.

Democrats and Republicans are still deliberating over reaching a deal to end the shutdown. It’s unclear how close the two sides are to a compromise, but little progress seems to have been made. (Pulse)
