Makeup undoubtedly makes a woman more well-groomed and attractive – evens out the tone, emphasizes the eyes and draws the gaze to the lips. But only if it is applied correctly. As in any other business, creating a make-up has its own subtleties that you need to know and follow.
Before you start painting your eyes or lips, you need to even out your face tone. To do this, it is best to use a foundation, the color of which should perfectly match your skin tone. Powder is not suitable for these purposes, since it is used only to fix the tone or adjust the makeup during the day.
You need to apply the foundation not with your hands, but with a fluffy brush created specifically for this. The cream should be spread from the center of the face with light strokes. It is very important not to leave untreated skin areas. Particular attention should be paid to mimic wrinkles and nasolabial folds.
Under the eyes, the tone should be applied with a thinner and more delicate brush, moving from the inner corner of the eye. To even out the tone on the forehead, it is also necessary to move from the center in different directions. In the area near the hair roots, you should already have a minimum amount of foundation on the brush.
The superimposed tone should be fixed using loose powder, which is applied in similar movements and in a thin layer. Compact powder is used to correct makeup throughout the day.
The next stage of makeup is to emphasize the eyes. Even if you are just going to draw arrows with a pencil or eyeliner, you must first apply shadows on the eyelids. In this case, you will need matte cream shades. They will eliminate the oily sheen of the skin and help to make your makeup look more professional.
Remember that daytime makeup involves lighter and more delicate shades of eyeshadow, while evening makeup allows for rich and dark ones. At the same time, it is very important to do the shading of the shadows correctly, since modern fashion dictates soft transitions between shades. For blending, it is convenient to use a small flat brush.
After applying eye shadow or eyeliner, you need to make up your eyelashes. Two layers of mascara are enough, otherwise, instead of fluffy eyelashes, you can get the so-called “spider legs”. It is very important not to take long breaks between applying the first and second layers, otherwise the mascara will dry out and it will be more difficult to dye your eyelashes.
To add volume to your lashes, paint them again at the roots.
To learn how to do beautiful makeup on your own, it is very important to observe the golden rule of make-up – to brightly emphasize either the eyes or the lips.
The easiest way to apply lipstick is to use gloss. The only rule of thumb is to make sure the shine is the right color for your makeup and skin tone.
If you want to paint your lips with bright lipstick, you should first circle them with a contour pencil, the color of which should perfectly match the shade of the lipstick, otherwise the makeup will turn out to be vulgar. The pencil line should run clearly along the contour of the lips.
The first layer of lipstick should be gently blotted with a napkin to remove excess grease, and then powdered – this will set the color. Then you need to apply a second layer of lipstick. It is better to apply bright lipsticks with a special brush.
