To begin with, before you apply any cosmetics to your face you will need to be in ownership of a good make of cleanser, toner and moisturiser. For those of you that are unaware of what these collection of products do, I will now tell you. The cleanser basically removes dirt, oils, makeup and any other types of bacteria from your face. The toner in essence gets rid of everything that the cleanser has missed including getting bacteria out of the pores of your face which are accessible only after you have cleansed; it also restores the pH balance of your skin. Lastly the moisturiser absorbs in all the necessary oils and prevents it from being corrupted by the environment. So in summary, this procedure it keeps your skin feeling clean, healthy looking and good for the long-term.
After finishing the above steps you will be ready to begin the process of applying your makeup. To begin with you should look at using foundation to give a layer to your look. It is important that you don’t just rub this on in any old style, only use a modest amount and dab it on your forehead, cheeks and chin. When you have done this begin to blend the foundation dots by using a spherical movement increasingly working outwards till the lines have become unseen.If you have blemishes, spots or any other types of imperfections on your face you can use this stage to cover them up with a concealer.
With that stage finished you can now focus your attention on the blusher aspect. Using a blusher is a great way to bring out a radiant glow on your cheeks. However with this you need a good brush because it can go terribly wrong with a cut-price brush that isn’t put together properly, so make sure your brush is effective for the job in hand. To apply blusher simply smile so the apple of your cheeks stand out, then apply a little amount of powder onto your blusher brush and stroke it on each apple of your cheek then blend the colour in.
Next you can begin to apply your eye makeup. Eye makeup can vary for certain occasions, by this I mean day wear, social wear and evening wear. For this example we will use evening wear as this is most likely the most popular. For evening wear it is best to stick with trendy and warm colours such as browns, champagnes and pale pinks. To start off with I would apply black eyeliner which will give a startling, vibrant look and effect to each of your eyes. Then use your choice of eye shadow colour and apply it carefully. Finally use some black mascara to finish off the look of your eyes and bear in mind to keep this stage uncomplicated and don’t cause yourself any complications.
To complete your overall look before you head out to wherever you are going to, don’t forget lipstick. Firstly I would recommend outlining your lips with either a lip pencil or a lip liner, also check that the colour of this liner strongly resembles that of the lipstick you want to use if not it will look perculiar. For instance if you have a light shade of peach lipstick try not to use a dark brown lip line colour because as you can picture it will look wrong! So once your lips have been lined apply your lipstick carefully then blend in the lined effect to complete your overall look.
There you have it! You are now looking the part and ready to dazzle and surprise.
