How To Get The Perfect Look

To begin with, before you apply any makeup to your face you will need to be in ownership of a good brand of cleanser, toner and moisturiser. For those of you that are unaware of what these three 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 essentially gets rid of anything that the cleanser has overlooked including getting bacteria out of the pores of your face which are accessible only after you have cleansed; it also restores the pH levels of your skin. Ultimately the moisturiser keeps in all the natural oils and prevents it from being corrupted by the environment. So with this process it keeps your skin feeling fresh, healthy looking and good for the long-term.

Now you have finished these first steps you will be prepared to begin the process of applying makeup. First and foremost equip yourself with your mineral powder, liquid or pressed powder foundation. It is important that you don’t just rub this on in any old style, only use a little amount and dab it on your forehead, cheeks and chin. Once you have finished this begin to blend the foundation dots by using a circular motion increasingly working outwards till the lines have become invisible.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.

The next stage of applying cosmetics comes in the form of using a blusher for your cheeks. Using a blusher is a great way to bring out a bright shine on your cheeks. With this you need a good quality brush because it can go terribly wrong with a low quality brush that isn’t made correctly, so make sure your brush is high quality for the job in hand. To apply blusher simply smile so the apple of your cheeks stand out, then apply a tiny quantity of powder onto your blusher brush and stroke it on each apple of your cheek then unify the colour in.

The next stage of applying your makeup is to focus on the eye area. Eye makeup can differ for certain occasions, by this I mean day wear, party 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 stay with fashionable and warm colours such as browns, champagnes and light reds. So to begin with I would apply black eyeliner which will give a startling, vibrant appearance and effect to each of your eyes. Then use your preference of eye shadow colour and apply it carefully. Finally use some black mascara to conclude the look of your eyes and bear in mind to keep this stage simple and don’t cause yourself any difficulties.

To complete your overall look before you venture out to wherever you are going to, don’t forget lipstick. Firstly I would advise outlining your lips with either a lip pencil or a lip liner, be sure that the colour of this liner very much resembles that of the lipstick you want to use otherwise it will look odd. For example if you have a light shade of peach lipstick try not to use a deep lip line colour because as you can imagine it will look like you have been eating chocolate! 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 geared up to dazzle and amaze.
