Basic Makeup Tips:
Want to know what to do before applying makeup? Before we can get to the basics of makeup, it is important to know how to prepare your skin for simple makeup.
A pre-makeup routine is nothing a but your regular simple cleanse-tone-moisturise regime to cleanses your face of excess oils, as well as keeps it hydrated, so that the makeup sits properly and evenly on your skin.
Wash Your Face
You should begin by washing your face to make sure it's clean and free of anything that might interfere with the application of your products.
Choose a cleanser that suits your skin type. Cream-based cleansers are best for dry skin, while gel-based cleansers work well for oily skin.
Tone Your Skin
This is a must-have step for those with oily or acne-prone skin to reduce their oily appearance.
Use a cotton ball to apply some toner to your neck and face.
Apply Moisturiszer
Before applying makeup, moisturize your skin with a good quality moisturizer.
A moisturizer is essential for smooth makeup application. It helps keep the skin soft and healthy.
Oil-based moisturizers are best for dry skin. However, moisturizers for oily skin should be used sparingly to avoid clogging pores.
Face Primer
A good primer sets the foundation for makeup and gives it a smooth look. It also helps it last longer.
Either buy the right face primer for you or use BB creams and CC creams. These products are a good mix of makeup primers, moisturisers and sunscreen.
Conceal Blemishes and Dark Circles
A concealer is used to cover dark circles and blemishes in simple makeup.
However, concealers can be used in more complicated makeup techniques like HD or airbrush makeup. Concealer palettes are used to correct color and mask large pores, dark circles, and other imperfections.
Use concealer that is two shades lighter than your skin.
Evenly Apply Foundation
Foundations even out skin tones without making it appear unnaturally bright. It all depends on your skin type and your complexion.
Start by putting some foundation on your hands and then apply it to your face with a brush. To blend the foundation evenly onto your skin, use a sponge.
Single-Colour Eyeshadow
You can use a light eyeshadow color to sweep across the lid for a quick but effective makeup look. You can also use one in nude or dull pink shades.
You don't have to be a pro at applying eyeshadows, but if they make you feel a little uneasy, you could instead try using coloured eyeliners.
Define the Eyes
It is easy to line the waterline or bottom of your eyes to define them. However, many women find applying eyeliner to the lash line can be rather difficult.
A simple makeup look does not require a complicated double-liner or winged liner. You can define your eyes with a simple stroke.
To achieve different effects, you can try out different types of eyeliners. You can experiment with different types of liners to achieve different effects.
A pencil eyeliner will give you a thick, soft stroke while a liquid one will have a darker, more sharp finish.
Add Lip Color
Use an old toothbrush to scrub dead skin away from your lips before you start to apply makeup to them.
Use a lip balm to moisturize your lips. Then choose a color that complements your overall appearance.
If your lips are uneven or thin, you can create a good shape btyapplying a lip liner.
Final Words
It's fun to use makeup and rather exciting to see the outcome, especially when you've done something really cool.
The main goal is to create a look that is as natural as possible and compliments the shape of your face, while enhancing your best features. Just don't be tempted to overdo it.
It takes a bit of practice and even a touch of daring to try something new, like for instance a bold lip colour or an eyeshadow palette.
However, it is worth experimenting with different colors and textures to see what suits your face best.
