(#11) Beauty Works From The Inside Out
When it comes to beautiful looking skin, there's no cream in the world that can give you a glow quite like a healthy diet and exercise routine. Sir John says, “I jump rope because it’s good for the face.” He also stresses that what you put in your body has a way of shining through, for better or for worse. Sir John takes his own tips to heart, and it shines through in his much-lauded work.

(#12) Leave a Little Room For Lower Lid Liner
Though makeup fans everywhere love their concealer, both for coverage and quick on-the-go touch ups, Sir John advises not going overboard on a good thing. Rather than applying it all the way up to your lower lid, leave enough room for lower, waterproof eyeliner. This will help you avoid a tired look and make your eyes more lively.

(#9) Your Makeup Focus Should Change Based On Your Age
As humans age, the skin and face change as well, so why shouldn't the way we apply our makeup grow? Here's the breakdown Sir John recommends makeup techniques based on various age groups:
"Under 18 - You're a minimalist. Keep it simple by using a cream blush on cheeks and a tinted lip balm. No lipliner! Keep the edges of the lips soft. Finish with just a hint of mascara.
18 to 35 - Focus on your eyes. Go crazy with bold eyeshadows and don't hold back on the mascara. Keep the lips and cheeks subtle.
Over 35 - It's all about the statement lip, a flush on the cheeks and a great complexion." -
(#3) Drink Carrot Juice
"I'm really holistic when it comes to skin care—it really starts on the inside," Sir John explains. "I'm a huge fan of eating healthy to make sure your skin is getting the vitamins and nutrients it needs to look its best. I always tell my clients to drink a carrot juice before a big event because you will see the results literally overnight." Beyonce, at least, follows his advice.

(#8) Resist the Urge To Go Overboard
With all the great products on the market, sometimes the urge can be strong to use a little bit of everything all at once. But as Sir John told Allure, when it comes to makeup, a little really does go a long way, even when it comes to fake eyelashes.
"The skin should be minimal, editorial. And too much lash cheapens a look. I see people do two and three-pair stacked lashes — it’s cute for the club, but don’t send your girl down the red carpet like that.”

(#4) Easy On The Powder
Though a great powder is a perfect way to set your look, Sir John reveals that you want to keep things light and avoid certain areas.
"I like an invisible or translucent loose powder. I find that pressed powders are too heavy. Also, you never want to use them around the eyes because it ages you. The skin around your eyes is so thin, I wouldn't want to put anything heavy and dry around that area."
