We all put on makeup, but these tips will help you get yielding the best possible results.
How to make up make-up last all day
For the lips, you must start by exfoliating with a cream-based product. Then, before applying any color, moisturize with a lip cream.
For the face, first apply a primer. It evens out skin tone, using reflective pigments to neutralize imperfections and banish dullness.
Then, for a lasting finish, after primer and foundation, use a translucent powder, setting spray. Spray it over your entire face to lock in make-up and stop it settling in fine lines.
How to cover scars
If the scars are fresh, do not apply make-up until any stitches are removed and the skin has healed.
Also, keep your routine simple and try to use the bare minimum, cutting out toners and exfoliants. Go for mineral product ranges, and keep the area well moisturized.
It is also important to use sun protection to reduce pigmentation at the site of the scarring.
How to wear make-up with glasses
Start by giving eyes definition. Blend a kohl liner into the lash line and add lots of mascara to give your eyes more definition.
If you wear square-shaped glasses, lightly shade the cheekbones and add a small amount of blush to the apples of the cheeks to soften the look.
If you have smaller glasses, defining your eyebrows can really help frame your face. Use a light color and gently distribute this through the brows.
Other tricks are to use a nude kohl liner along the lower, inner lash line and flick darker eyeliner on the upper lash line to really draw attention to your eyes.
Finally, balance your features with bold lip colors.
For those with smaller eyes, it is recommended to put eye shadows in light, pearl tones, as darker shades can make eyes appear even smaller.
If you have big eyes, you can afford to go a bit heavier with eye make-up.
