Putting on makeup Will Boost
Your Confidence
Makeup is a wonderful and easy way to boost your confidence. When you
look good, you feel good. Makeup can make a plain woman pretty, a pretty
woman beautiful and a beautiful woman glamorous. The main thing to
remember is don't over do it. Makeup is designed to enhance your natural
features and beauty, to cover up flaws and to give you more confidence.
Too much makeup will make you look trashy.
Before putting on makeup, make sure your skin is clean. Start with a
thorough cleansing to open up your pores and clean them deep down. Then
close your pores. You don't too much foundation clogging your pores, so
proper closing of the pores is very important. Clogged pores lead to
pimples and black heads. Once they form, they are very difficult to get
rid of, and will blemish the overall appearance of your face. A little
prevention goes a long way in perfect healthy skin.
The
first step is the foundation. Everything from building homes to putting
on makeup has to start with a good foundation. Choose a shade that
blends with your skin tone. A mismatched foundation will make you look
fake. The key to makeup is to enhance and bring out natural beauty, not
hide it. Apply the foundation evenly and blend well. You should not have
an outline where the bass ends and your skin begins. It should be so
well blended and smoothed to the edges of your face, that no one will
even know you are wearing makeup.
The
next step is concealer. If you have any flaws, this will cover it up
nicely. Make sure your concealer is the same tone as your foundation.
Otherwise you will look blotchy. As we get older the area under our eyes
tend to get a little dark. Concealer will brighten up those areas and
make you look years younger. Blending is extremely important. Blend the
concealer well. Remember, you want to enhance your beauty, not destroy
it.
Then we work on the eyes. The eyes, by many standards are a woman's best
feature. Bring out those eyes! Carefully apply your mascara. Let it dry
for a few seconds, then brush out your lashes with a dry eyelash brush.
A good tip: when your old mascara runs out, keep the brush, wash it
thoroughly with soap and warm water, it makes a great eyelash brush.
When applying eye liner makeup, you need to make sure you don't go
overboard. A thin line at the base of your lashes is all you need. This
will draw extra attention to your eyes.
 Putting
on makeup shouldn't be a chore. Have fun with it. Get your blush brush
and brush away. Not to heavy, you don't want to look like a clown. Keep
it natural. Brush upwards from your check, along your check bone, almost
to your hairline. A big fluffy brush will ensure you don't apply too
much blush. This is if you are using a powder blush. Some women prefer a
cream. A cream will last longer, but it is much harder to blend into a
natural glow.
When putting on lip gloss makeup, you really can't go wrong. Lip stick
and lip liner are much more complicated. Lip gloss makeup goes on as
easy as Chap Stick and looks much more natural, that is why many women
prefer that over lipstick. Lip stick tends to wear off near your mouth
leaving you with an ugly rim around your outer lip. Line liner stays on
longer than lipstick, so when the lip stick wears off, that ugly rim is
even more predominant.
