Make Up Application Tips

Applying make-up should not be difficult. It should be a regime that accents your beauty internally, by making you feel good about yourself and externally, by making you look terrific. First of all, start with a clean face. You will need several tools to make your make-up look it's best. Brushes are very important so be sure to invest in some good quality tools.

Apply Foundation, Concealer and Powders. This is the base for your make-up application. Apply the foundation with your fingers or a Q-tip in dots in areas of your face. With a cosmetic sponge, spread the foundation until it is well-blended into the skin. Be sure to check and make sure that you do not have any lines showing underneath the chin area.

Next, you will need to apply concealer to any blemishes or under-eye circles that you may have. You can use a shade lighter than you skin-tone. When applying concealer to the undereye area, pat gently into the skin and do not rub. Using your finger, pat the concealer into the skin on the blemish areas also until you can no longer see the concealer.

Now it is time to set the previous applications by applying translucent face powder. Get out a big, fluffy powder brush and dip it into some loose facial powder. You can then apply the powder over your entire face. A few extra tips in this area include apply foundation and powder to your eyelids and lips. This will help your make-up stay on longer.

Next with the Lips. Use a lip pencil to outline the lips and make them stand out. The next step will be to apply lipstick with a lip brush. A lip brush makes the lipstick look professionally applied.
