"  We get that some days you don&amp;#039;t feel like a million bucks. Don&amp;#039;t worry, we&amp;#039;ve been there too. Whether you have your period and are bloated, cried all night because you just broke up with your man and thus look a bit on the puffy side, or have a more round-shaped face than you&amp;#039;d like\u2014not feeling your best pretty much sucks. So, in addition to throwing on your go-to &amp;quot;OMG, I look amazing&amp;quot; outfit to boost your confidence from one to Beyonc\u00E9, here are a few makeup tricks that&amp;#039;ll also help you feel your best. Wing it. Tracing your upper lash line and creating a flick at the outer corner brings the entire eye and the focus upward, creating the illusion of a less puffy face. Layer on a lot of mascara. If you have a round face and would like it to appear more narrow, an easy way to bring the focus toward the center of it is to amp up your lashes with a few healthy doses of mascara. The bigger your eyes look, the more real estate they take up on your face, helping to draw the eye inward. Contour your cheekbones. Contouring has long been known for its ability to give you serious bone structure and to create the look of a thinner face. Want chiseled Gisele-like cheekbones that call for mad attention? Here&amp;#039;s how to get in on the contouring action. Wear earth-toned makeup. Applying neutral shades to your eyes, cheeks, and lips keeps the eye moving. Translation: When someone looks at you, their eyes won&amp;#039;t be instantly attracted to a bold eye or lip color. This is pertinent info if you&amp;#039;re feeling puffy\u2014especially because color draws attention, so if you&amp;#039;re feeling subpar, this is a good way to stay under the radar. Go for a structured brow. Doing your brows daily is the quickest way to shape your face. It&amp;#039;s almost like putting on a blazer. If you want to look and feel skinny, a structured blazer will give that polished, put-together vibe. A cleaned-up brow does the same for your face, giving it structure. Will you be using these beauty nuggets of information next time you&amp;#039;re not feeling like a rock star? Photo: Imaxtree Follow Carly Cardellino on Facebook and Twitter.
