Steps of Aplying Makeup - Makeup Tip 1
The process of putting on makeup must always start with clean skin.
It is morning. You are awake; you have done your stretch exercises, taken a shower and started your circulation going (thus you have some color in your face). You have gone through your cleansing routine, ending up with your astringent, and have patted your moisturizer gently into your skin.
That done, you are ready for the makeup routine. As you are getting used to this routine it may seem that it will take forever. Don’t be discouraged. It won’t. Following are two basic morning makeup routines you can choose from, depending on your life style, your plans for the day and your mood.
The 5 Minute Face Makeup - Whenever you are short of time, concentrate on the skin, eyes and mouth. Find a concealer that suits your skin tone the best, in order to disguise shadows or redness and go on to blend well, using your finger tips. Apply some pressed powder. Use a neutral lipstick and apply on the cheeks, rubbing well to give a natural look. Lastly, apply a coat of mascara and lipstick to highlight your lips.
The 10 Minute Face Makeup - Use a compact powder foundation and then apply a concealer for that even look. Apply a neutral blusher all over the eyelids and temples. Apply two coats of mascara. Lastly, apply lipstick to highlight your lips.
