Easy Ways to Learn Make Up
Most make up saloons in shopping malls offer free beauty consultations and free makeovers. Do not be afraid to ask them for tips and if they have the time, the beauticians will offer you a free makeover. This will allow you to test the range of colors and know what the most suitable colors are for you.
When you are having your consultation, do notice the way they handle the equipments and the colors they chose for you. Watch them put on the make up and feel free to ask them about the techniques you are using. Once the makeover is done, take photos so you are able to replicate the colors when you are at home or choose different colors if you do not like them. Please remember to practice what you learned immediately because the more you practice on your face, the more experience and comfortable you will become using make up.
Always start with foundation or a base on your face and eyes. Foundations are available in powder, liquid or bronzer form. Make sure you apply on your neck also so the tone looks natural. Remember to choose one color lighter than your skin color when applying foundation.
Next, choose your colors base on your hair, skin tone or clothes you will be wearing and time of day. Night make up tend to be heavier and more expressive while day make up usually will be simple and professional looking. Brush on eye shadow, followed by eye liner and then mascara. Apply blusher at the apple of your cheeks and make sure it looks natural without any defined line showing on your cheeks.
Finally, put on some lipstick and lip gloss and finish the make up by brushing a finishing powder gently over your face.
