Article: Different sprays contain different ingredients, and many include ingredients that can settle to the bottom of the bottle. To make sure you are getting the proper mixture, give your bottle a few gentle shakes. You don't need to shake it vigorously just enough to mix it all up. Hold the bottle six to eight inches away from your face. You want to give your entire face an even misting, so don't spray it closely. Spray the product a few times, making sure you get full, even coverage. Setting spray works best on the top layer of makeup, such as bronzer, eye shadow, and blush. If you want to keep your foundation and concealer in place, use a primer before applying them to your face. Primer and setting sprays can be used together. One way to ensure full coverage is to spray the setting spray in an "X" shape over your face, and then again in a "T" shape over your face. Once you've sprayed your setting spray, let your face air-dry. It won't take too long for your skin to absorb the spray. Don't rub or blend the spray anywhere on your face, or you will risk messing up your makeup. Throw the setting spray into your purse so that you can have it whenever you want it. Depending on the specific setting spray you've chosen, it can cool you off, mattify your makeup, and rehydrate your skin throughout the day. If you touch up or reapply your makeup, make sure to spray again.

Shake your spray bottle. Spray your entire, finished face. Let the spray dry naturally. Reapply your setting spray throughout the day.
Article: Small cardstock boxes make ideal decorative boxes for chocolates. They keep the chocolates cool to prevent heat from melting them. You can fold one yourself or purchase a small paper gift box from most craft stores. Measure your chocolates beforehand to make sure you choose or fold a box large enough for them. You can also use a metal canister as an alternative, but metal is more likely to attract heat. Before adding any tissue papers or decorations to the box, put the chocolates inside to make sure they fit. If you're packing individual chocolates, place them on a candy cup to prevent them from touching any decorations. After you place the chocolates in the box, pad it with tissue paper. This prevents the chocolate from breaking as you handle the box and helps to keep it cool. Although you can use bubble wrap to keep the chocolates cool and intact, tissue paper is much more decorative. Try finding tissue paper in bold colors or patterns to help it make a celebratory statement. You can also wrap tissue paper around the bottom and top of the box for an extra flair. This can make the container look more ornate, especially if you're gifting your chocolates to someone else. Cut the decorative paper to fit the sides of your container and use craft glue or a glue stick to secure it in place. You can use art paper, construction paper, wrapping paper, wallpaper samples, or even newspaper to decorate your container. If your box is a solid color, use a decorative stamp or sticker to give it color. Use between 1-3 types of stamps or stickers at most, as too much decoration can overwhelm the box's style. Avoid using both stamps and stickers to avoid oversaturating the box with decoration. You can also glue buttons or beads to the box for a more unique design. In a pinch, colored office supply stickers can function as a simple decoration. You can purchase colored sticker dots from most office supply stores. Ribbons can give your container a decorative flair. Tie the ribbon on top of or around the container, or tie the ribbon into a bow and glue it to the top or side. Curl the ribbons with scissors to make them look especially ornamental.
