In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: When you start to draw your cartoon character, have a list of descriptions and features you want to include in your sketch for reference. Keep the list next to you while you work. You may find that some features just don't work as you're drawing the cartoon character, and that's okay! Having a reference can help keep you on track while you're working away creating the character. Start drawing your cartoon character by choosing a basic shape based on who they are, such as a rounded shape for chubby character or a thin shape with lots of sharp lines if they're really skinny. Take a sheet of paper and a pencil and start lightly sketching out the shape of your character. Don't make any deep or hard markings so you can easily erase and revise your rough sketch. Use a notebook or sketch paper to sketch out your character. As your character starts to take shape, start adding some of the key features that will make it seem more realistic. Use your pencil to lightly add in the features, objects, clothing, and other details that are unique to your cartoon character. Use defining features and items to highlight the personality of your character, such as reading glasses for a nerdy character or a sword for a warrior. The face of your cartoon character will be it's most defining and striking feature. Add a nose, mouth, eyes, ears, and all of the other facial features you plan to include. Put an expression on your character that fits their mood and personality. For example, if they're a happy-go-lucky type of character, sketch them with a big smile on their face. Go back over the lines to fill them in and make them appear fuller. Use shading to give more depth and dimension to your character on the paper. Erase any faint pencil markings from your sketch to make it feel more finished. Choose paints and colors that fit the style of your cartoon character. Add color to your sketch to really bring the character to life! For example, watercolors might fit a whimsical, dreamy cartoon character, while color pencils would work better for a comic-strip type of character. Use colored pencils for an easy way to add color to your cartoon character.
Summary: Keep a list of key details you want to include. Sketch out the shape of the character on paper with a pencil. Add details to the sketch to start to flesh it out. Fill in the face of the sketch. Add shading to the lines to add depth to the character. Color the sketch and add shading to bring it to life.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Fenton milk glass is known for its ornate pieces with raised bumps and frilled edges. Most Fenton pieces will have an "F" or "Fenton" engraved inside of an oval on the bottom side of the item. If your item has this engraving, it could be genuine. After 1980, Fenton started to put a single number after the "F" or "Fenton" engraving, to denote the first number in the decade. Therefore, all Fenton glassware made in the 80's has an "8" after the "F" or "Fenton." Fenton has been making glassware since 1905. If "PV" or "Vallerysthal" is a raised engraving on the bottom of the piece, it may be a genuine item from Vallerysthal Glassworks of France. Typically, these pieces are a bluish-white color and are made into glass animals or shells. Some newer Vallerysthal pieces have a sticker that says "PV France" on the bottom of the item instead of an engraving. Vallerysthal Glassworks was founded in 1836 in France and still makes glassware today. An engraving of "WG" on the bottom of the item means that the product was produced by Westmoreland in America. They are known for their rimmed edges and grape and floral designs. If the "G" overlays the "W" in the logo, there's a good chance that the item was produced before the 1980s. Westmoreland made glassware from 1889-1984. Fostoria pieces typically have a paper label that denotes the brand; however, older pieces may be missing the label. Luckily, most Fostoria pieces have the same sort of engraving--an ornate crossing pattern that creates raised triangles on the surface of the piece. Not all Fostoria pieces have its famous pattern. Fostoria usually makes vases, cups, and bowls. Fostoria made glass from 1887-1986.
Summary: Look for an engraved "F" or "Fenton" on the bottom of the piece. Search for a "Vallerysthal" or "PV" engraved on the bottom. Check for a "WG" engraving or fruits, birds, and/or flowers on the piece. Identify Fostoria pieces by its etching or paper label.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Cosmetics that do not clog pores are called noncomedogenic or non-acnegenic. The first ingredient in your makeup should be water. . Opt for mineral-based cosmetics, which will absorb excess oil and hide redness without irritating your skin. Noncomedogenic makeup does not interfere with acne medication. Use oil-free primer to keep your makeup in place. It can be especially difficult to keep concealer on an inflamed zit, but a dab of primer does the trick. Lightweight primers are less likely to irritate acne and are easier on oily skin. Use a primer with SPF for protection from the sun, especially if you have scarring or hyperpigmentation. Sun exposure can slow the healing process. Apply the primer all over your face to help your makeup go on evenly and last longer. A mineral-powder foundation is less likely to clog your pores than a liquid foundation, though it will provide less coverage. Opt for mattifying products: they absorb excess oil, and a matte finish conceals bumpiness. Avoid shimmery finish, which will draw attention to bumps. Foundations that are designed to last all day are more likely to clog your pores, causing further acne. If you're interested in light coverage, an oil-free tinted moisturizer can work great on acne-prone skin. It also won't clog pores! Concealer that is too light or dark will highlight your trouble spots, rather than hiding them. Mix two shades of concealer if you cannot find one that matches your skin. Keep in mind that oily skin can oxidize the concealer, which will make it look darker. You can avoid this by choosing a concealer that is 1/2 a shade lighter than your skin color. Setting powder can benefit oily skin, but can exacerbate dryness in other skin. If you choose to use it, find a light setting powder that is less likely to trap oils under your skin.
Summary:
Acquire oil-free makeup. Pick the right primer for your skin. Consider a powder foundation. Find or make a concealer that matches your skin tone. Consider using a setting powder.
