How to apply makeup

My grandmother painted her lips with scarlet lipstick, ink eyebrows and blush before going out. Make-up from her took a maximum of five minutes. My mother used make-up for at least twenty minutes: washing, skin cleansing, foundation cream, dyeing of eyelashes, applying shadows, and also lip-blush-eyebrows.

I do not know how many my great-grandmothers were painted on time( and whether they were painted at all), but I can assume that the further, the more time and effort is required to bring beauty. It is difficult to say what this trend is connected with: the fact that the standards of beauty have risen to a new level. Whether with the fact that the number and variety of cosmetics and various means beats all records. Either with a desire to achieve the ideal. But personally, I have to draw a face that takes about forty minutes. At the same time, my goal is a natural look, that is, I need to make a make-up to look perfect and create the feeling that there is not a single gram of makeup on my face.

Disguise the skin imperfections, improve the appearance, try on a new image - all this can be done with the help of make-up. The main thing only is to know how to make makeup correctly at home, and be able to correctly implement on your own face instructions from step-by-step photos.

How to make makeup at home photo step by step

The key rule of any makeup( regardless of whether it is daytime or evening, festive or decorative, business or extravagant) - the presence of only one accent. You can emphasize your eyes or accent your lips, but not both. Otherwise, instead of an exquisite appearance, it will simply be a vulgar combat coloring.

You should only use your cosmetics. At home - this rule is simple to perform, but even during the "release" can not under any circumstances to use funds from someone else's cosmetic bag. And even if the ink has flowed, it is better just to wash than to use someone else's brush. Since the latter can be fraught with the appearance of an allergy or infection.

To look perfect, you must clearly know and follow certain rules:
1) Any make-up begins with careful preparation of the skin. Clean, well-groomed, healthy facial skin gives "plus one" to the most advertised and expensive cosmetics. Of course, care and care for the face must be done regularly, and not in a hurry before applying cream or tone.

Principles of skin care are simple enough:

• systematic cleansing and moisturizing,
• use of nourishing creams and lotions,
• periodically make masks from natural ingredients,
• if skin condition allows - in the morning to massage with ice cubes for tonus, cubes can be madefrom ordinary water, but from chamomile or other herbal infusion in the frozen form of benefit will be more.

2) Twenty minutes before applying a tonal basis, you should well lubricate the face with a day cream - this will help the skin to remain smooth, supple and protect it from the effects of cosmetic products.

3) Make-up should be applied in good light, in order to be able to evaluate the result in the process, and not to allow divorce, unmatched borders.

4) The tone of the face can be aligned with mousse, tonalnik, cream powder or powder;the main thing is that the product should be tested, well laid down and does not cause negative reactions.

5) Using pencil, corrector and concealer can hide acne, areas of reddened skin, "bags" under the eyes, rashes and irritations.

6) During the application of the foundation, it is important to carefully shade the foundation on the border with the hair growth line so that there are no bright transitions with other skin areas. To choose tonalnik it is necessary in tone to a skin of the face, thus it is necessary to remember that at different times of the year, and at different times of the day, the skin tone can change a little. So one tonal cream can not be a panacea for all time.

7) Do not avoid blush. If you know the secret of application, then a droplet of dry, liquid or cream blush eliminates unnecessary pallor, corrects facial features and refreshes skin color.

The blush technique is based on three pillars:
• knowledge of your face type and main application areas( not only cheekbones, but also whiskey, or even chin).
• thorough feathering,
• gradual increase in color saturation to achieve the desired image of a "ruddy face".

8) The most difficult, perhaps, is to "draw" the eyes. For a qualitative make-up, various colors for eyes, various pencils, and shimmers, and numerous brushes, and mascara for eyelashes, and podvodki, and many other devices are also useful.

To make a woman or girl look modern, bright and successful, she needs to spend a lot of time studying the numerous ways, video lessons, detailed instructions on eye makeup. Learn, train, stuff your hand, watch master classes of professional makeup artists - and then there will be a welcome result. The top of perfection in this art: perfectly painted eyelashes, fine lines, competently executed shadows - and all this in a short period of time.

9) The attractiveness of the appearance depends on the type of eyebrows. Today, fashion has again returned to naturalness, but excessively curvy eyebrows are unlikely to be the best decoration. Also representative of "plucked to the minimum eyebrows" looks inappropriate. It is best to visit the beauty salon, where a professional will help you choose the optimal form and teach you how to properly support it. It must be remembered that the color of the eyebrows should be in harmony with the color range of the hair( it's not about challenging experiments on the appearance).

Daytime make-up with detailed description for beginners

Duty of skillful make-up: what not to hide and what to emphasize. The whole problem is that from a huge number of tips it is difficult to choose the basic ones that suit you or your situation.

Take, for example, the eyeliner. Personally, I know two dozen tricks and the possibilities of using it. You can achieve an excellent make-up if you combine qualitatively and skillfully the smooth and soft lines that are made with a pencil, with the "technical merits" of the liners. And the easiest way of beautiful eyeliner is a special marker pen. An important role is played by the sequence of using decorative means: if you apply eyeliner under the shadows, then the make-up will turn out to be soft and gentle, and if over the shadow, the result will be more vivid and full.

When it comes to the design of the eyes, then if you describe all the subtleties and nuances, you can get a thick multi-volume encyclopedia. Therefore, for now, let's dwell on the classic version of makeup:

1) The base, which for several hours will preserve the color rendition and persistence of cosmetics.
2) Making the area under the eyebrows and the inner corner of the eyes the lightest shadows of the selected shades in the occasion of the color scheme.
3) Apply to the moving eyelids of the midtones.
4) Selecting the outer corner and folds with the darkest shadows.
5) Feeling properly all boundaries and transitions between all kinds of shadows.
6) The main condition of the make-up eye: it is necessary to be painted so that there is no disharmony between the shape of the eyes and decorative make-up.

The finishing touch is made by mascara. Beautiful eyelashes are appropriate in any way. But here there are special features that are important to observe:
1) short cilia should be dyed with lengthening mascara, for rare - use voluminous, and long thanks to the twisting will look more advantageous.
2) do not overdo it with overhead or extended eyelashes, since instead of adding attractiveness they will appear to be not natural and vulgar.

Special attention is required for the lips. In the evenings it is desirable to apply special scrubs and peelings, and do it in combination with moisturizing balms. Before going out on the street, especially in the cold season, the lips must necessarily be protected.

The dignity and beauty of the lips can be emphasized by means of a pencil and lipstick:
1) if you take a pencil in the tone of a lipstick or a little lighter, then the lips will seem more plump.
2) the resistance of lipstick can be increased if you lightly powder your lips.
3) and if you apply a lip gloss vertically - then it will not spread.

Step by step instruction

Step 1. Moisturizing face cream that suits you according to skin type.

Step 2. A tonal cream, also suitable for skin type and shade. It is good to shade the border with the hair and at the chin level.

Step 3. The concealer on the floor tone is lighter than the shade of the skin for masking the bag and bruises under the eyes.

Step 4. Powder crumbly, having a light tint( give up the white transparent, as it easily overdo it and even professionals do not always cope with it).Apply the most fluffy brush from natural nap light movements.

Step 5. Easy correction with gray-brown shadows( corrector) and hailer dry textures. Darkening: under the cheekbones, along the perimeter of the face, the sides of the nose, the fold of the upper eyelid, under the chin and the edge line of the face. Clarity: the back of the nose, the protruding part of the cheekbones, the inner corner, a tick above the upper lip. We pass only the shade, so we take a brush from natural wax and we apply the product with light, hardly touching movements.

Step 6. Blush of a natural pink or peach tinge on the "apples" of the cheeks( are obtained when you smile).

Step 7. Correction of eyebrows with the help of gray-brown shadows( hue on the tone is lighter than the hair).With a beveled firm brush, paint all the gaps and brush well with a brush, erasing all boundaries. To brighten under the eyebrows a light beige shade.

Step 8. Shadows of the liked shade on all mobile eyelid and a little on the bottom( from an external corner, up to the middle of an eye).Dark brown shadows more actively deepen the crease of the upper eyelid, slightly to the outer corner of the eye and the lower eyelid to the middle of the eye.

Step 9. If desired, draw the arrow with a pencil or eyeliner. It can be intermittent( well dye the space between the eyelashes) or dark active.

Step 10. With ink, with the effect of volume, we paint the eyelashes with twisting movements, making the main emphasis on the roots, the remnants - the lower ones.

Step 11. Moisturizing lip balm. Lipstick liked the shade. If the lipstick is bright, before applying, paint the lips completely with a pencil.
