From hiding a zit, covering up redness to highlight the right feature on your face, putting on makeup can sometimes transform your look. Regardless of what you use the makeup for, here are some makeup tricks that every woman should master.
You can’t have a beautiful painting without a beautiful canvas, so always drench the skin with moisture to prepare it for makeup. Also, target the under-eye area as it is the most delicate area prone to fine lines. With a good foundation, you will never be going to look caked or powdery.
On eye makeup, if you want to have beautiful fluttery eyelashes, you need a fresh as they are clump-free and glide better. When applying mascara, wiggle the brush from the base of your lashes, sweep outward and upward at the same time to get chunky lashes at the bottom that taper into fringes at the ends.
Bold, red lipstick is arguably the must-have item in every woman’s make-up bag. Make sure you choose a shade of red that compliments your skin tone. Reds with orangey base usually look great on dark skin tones while reds with bluish base work better with fair skin tones. Put concealer with matching shade at the corners of your lip, as it helps define your lips, as well as creates a barrier to stop the colour from travelling.
Always apply powder on the shiniest area like T-zone first, then a very light dusting on everywhere else. For bronzer, you can put it on your neck, face, and chest to even out your skin tone. Don’t forget to take a step back and make sure everything is the same colour after you put on all the makeup product.
