And without further ado, let's jump straight into these makeup tips!
Good primer is seriously the best thing you can ever do for your makeup.
Choose a mattifying formula if you experience oily skin during the day and make sure you pick a super moisturizing formula if you get dry skin,
otherwise you'll have your foundation either sliding off your face or flaking off.
Fingers really provide a sheer coverage versus brushes and always apply in downward strokes
in the direction of your hair growth. This will make sure the finish is smooth
because your hair is not competing with the product
and a wet beauty blender puts a barrier so the sponge doesn't absorb as much product
so that you can use a little foundation to go a long way.
Instead of applying an all-over color, use lighter colors to bring back the parts that are sunken in
and use a slightly darker tone for eye bags or parts you want to recede.
Little goes a long way, so make sure you only apply in areas where it's necessary.
For me this is my T-Zone because it tends to get a bit oily, so yeah,
otherwise I don't use powder in my face because I have really dry skin.
With eyeshadow, instead of using a primer, you can also use a match shadow that's slightly
lighter than your skin color and apply this all over you lids and brow bone.
This creates such a perfect base for blending colors, so if you have trouble blending,
make sure you don't skip this step, because this really changed my blending game
because a lot of foundation, concealers and primers that you use as a base for your eyeshadow
can make your skin a little bit tacky which makes the color stick on, it can encourage creasing
so you might want to think of using something else.
Brows are pretty much the most important feature of your makeup.
If you want to create a lifting effect, basically concentrate your lines on the top part of your brow
and also add a highlight just above the arch
and this really can give you a sort of like a brow lifting effect.
If you want to create a more youthful image though, you can actually do straight brows
by concentrating on the lower part of the eyebrows and drawing in the curve
and also creating a brightening spot underneath the arch there and that will give you a more youthful look
so it's really up to you what you wanna do with your brows. I love both!
If you have trouble applying your eyeliner, instead of looking straight into the mirror,
lift your chin up and maybe pull your skin up to the side.
This will actually create a really great environment for a clean align
and this has really made eyeliner applications so much more easier for me.
Don't forget to jam your mascara right into the roots before you apply it
because this can give you a really nice tight line for your border line
and make sure that the product on your whole lash instead of just the top of it making it even and pretty.
I have super dry lips so I'm always putting on lip balm before.
This actually creates a huge barrier between the lip product
It's really important to wipe it off with a tissue before applying any lip liner, lip products
or else, it just doesn't go on very smoothly.
Put your moisture, apply the lip balm on top when you're done.
The way you apply your blush is actually really important, because this can really even out your face.
If you have a shorter face like me, I usually apply the blush quite high up on my cheeks
and this creates an illusion of a more oval face.
Basically the blush is going to provide a center point for your eyes.
I like to apply blush closest to the center so that you pull your eyes in and make your face look smaller.
I have a diagram for you guys to refer to if you wanna find some more info. This is on my blog.
