Basics of Perfect Makeup

Basics of Perfect Makeup

Certain fundamental principles must be followed, if you want to excel in the art of make-up.

Take time if your make-up is to enhance your natural look and not project a heavily made up face.

Every step in applying make-up must merge with the previous one. For instance, rouge and foundation should not appear as scratches demarcated by lines. On the other hand, it must blend evenly with one another.

Medicated stick must always be used with caution. Apply light strokes and do not overdo it as these spots or areas will stand out. Shadowing with the medicated stick must be done carefully.

Water based concealers last longer and are generally applied before foundation. If using a liquid or solid foundation, the cream foundation you can substitute concealers by using lighter than your skin tone.

Normal skin types require minimal foundation. Skillful shadowing covers flaws, highlights your 'plus' feature points and can help to change the shape of the face. Highlighting helps to emphasize features. If you are young you can afford to be more adventurous. Use a variety of bright shades and colours. As you may grow older, neutral or natural subtle shades are suitable.
