Spending a primer across the face, using a liquid or creamy base and a concealer for blemishes and dark circles are some tips you should follow to achieve a perfect and flawless makeup.
Also, it is important to differentiate between makeup for the day or night, because while one should be light and not too loaded, the other can be more daring and elaborate. Also, when doing your makeup it is important that you avoid common makeup mistakes like excess mascara, which end up doing the opposite effect.
Makeup Tips for the Day
During the day, the makeup used should be lightweight and not too loaded, as it will be this makeup that will stay up at night, thus there is a greater chance of the loaded makeup to erase and melt. In addition to being the type of makeup that is most appropriate for the day, another important aspect is that the daylight tends to make the makeup much more evident, so it is not advised to look a lot.
The type and color of the skin is another important factor, because while the brunette should abuse the golden tones, oranges and peach, which will provide luminosity, the skin should be pink and light orange tones that help color the face and highlight the contours.
Makeup Tips for the Night
Make-up for the evening, tends to be much more elaborate, because the lack of light allows the use of more intense, bright and dark colors that stand out on your face when you are at your favorite bar or nightclub.
A little advice is that you should not use very intense tones simultaneously on the lips and eyes, and in these situations choose to highlight the eyes or mouth.
Good options to wear at night are the blurry black eyes that enhance the look with a light-colored or light pink lipstick, or red or wine-colored lipsticks, strong but always feminine and delicious colors that can be combined with a Eye makeup less loaded.
Step-by-step makeup
So that you can enjoy a beautiful and lasting makeup, here is a step-by-step script of how you can make your makeup:
1. Begin by washing, toning and moisturizing your skin
It is important to wash the thistle well with cold water, with little soap, and then dry the face thoroughly and wipe the cleansing tissue. The Micellar Water is also a great choice to remove impurities and makeup residue from the skin, learn more about this product in What Micelar Water is and what it is for. This process allows the skin to be clean and free from residues and is especially important for mixed and oily skin. Finally, apply a tonic and a cream on the face preferably with sun protection factor for during the day.
2. Pass a primer across the face
The primer is a specific product that should be applied as a normal tonic or cream, which will help prepare the skin to receive the makeup by helping to fix it.
3. Use liquid or creamy base and apply concealer for blemishes and dark circles
To give more light to your skin, to uniform and cover imperfections, you should pass throughout the face a liquid or creamy base of tone suitable for your skin, which should be applied with a brush or sponge to spread evenly.
In addition, you can also choose to use a concealer in the region below the eyes to help cover the dark circles, and you can also apply a little on the upper eyelid that will also help to fix the shade. If you have other imperfections or redness on your face, you can also pass this corrective over these more problematic regions.
4. Pass the right shadows using the most practical brushes
Shadows should be applied with brushes, it is important to use one brush to apply shadows and another to blur the shadows and mix the colors.
To apply the shadows, you should start by applying a light shade as the base color throughout the eyelid, and then apply a stronger or darker color on the upper line of the movable eyelid, which should be smoothed in a circular motion from the center to the of the eye.
To finish, you can pass a very clear and luminous color just below the eyebrow line, to brighten the look.
5. Use a little eyeliner to set the shape of the eye and mascara
To finish making up your eyes, you can choose to use an eyeliner, preferably brown or black, that should be used on the eyelid near the lash line. The eyeliner can be gel or pencil, and in case of gel this should be applied using a bevelled brush.
If you have difficulty making a thin, clean scratch with eyeliner, you can use black or dark brown shade to take the risk by using a bevelled brush. To do this, simply wet the tip of the brush, then pass in the shade that you want to use and pass in the eye just as you would with the gel eyeliner. In this way, the shadow will be much more compact and the risk has a slightly blurred effect, so it does not need to be so straightforward.
At the end, you should apply a little mascara on your eyelashes and it is recommended that you wear waterproof mascara on the lower eyelashes to avoid smudging.
6. Pass a colored or translucent colored powder on the face
To fix all makeup, you should wipe a translucent or colored compact powder all over your face using a brush. This powder will help to fix the base, giving light and reducing the brightness of the skin.
7. Apply bronzing powder and blush on the cheekbones
Lastly, to finish the whole process should pass a suntan powder on the side of the face and a light blush on the cheekbones. To be easier to apply the blush, you should smile at the mirror so you can better identify the region of your cheekbones.
These little tips are very simple and easy to follow, helping to ensure a simple makeup but always with a clean and professional look. Also, if you have very oily skin you should always choose to use moisturizing cream, loose base and powder with matte effect for oily skins or if you have sensitive skin prone to allergies, your whole makeup should be anti-allergic.
