Step by step on how to do a simple makeup yourself

After purchasing the necessary products, it’s time to start makeup. If it didn’t work out as expected on the first try, don’t worry, it’s normal.. Makeup takes practice and gets better with time, so train hard at home. Time makes perfect.

clean your face well

Before starting makeup, it is important to clean it properly. Use a soap specific to your skin type. If possible, wash your face using cold water to close the pores and make your foundation look prettier.

moisturizer

With a clean face, apply a moisturizer. The moisturizer goes beyond protecting the face, it helps make-up last longer. When foundation is applied directly to the face, the skin ends up pulling water from the makeup, leaving it cracked and damaging your skin. Even if you have oily skin, this step is super important, so don’t skip it.

Sunscreen

If you are going to wear makeup during the day, you need to apply sunscreen before foundation. However, you can replace your regular foundation with a tinted sunscreenthe finish will be beautiful and you will be well protected.

However, attention, if you are going to use this makeup at night, do not apply the protector. Because, with the flash or lights, the protector will act and you will come out white in any photo or you will have a ghost face at the party. Sunscreen should be used during the day.

primer

The primer is applied only on the T region (forehead, nose and chin), which is where the makeup comes off easily. So, with clean fingers, apply in this region. Don’t forget the corners of your nose, as it’s the place that the foundation usually comes off the fastest.

Basis

Now it’s the base’s turn. Use a damp brush or sponge to apply foundation. Come on, the brush will make the finish of your foundation heavier and the sponge will make the foundation lighter, even if the product is a heavy finish. So choose the best option for you.

Liquid Paper

After applying foundation, it’s time for the concealer. If possible, wait for the foundation to dry a little before starting to apply the concealer. Apply it in the dark circles region, in a V shape, so you will correct and illuminate at the same time. Also, apply the product in places where the foundation didn’t cover as much, such as pimples, blemishes or anything else you want to hide.

Dust

To seal all the makeup and increase the durability, it is necessary to come with a powder. First apply a good amount on top of where you applied the concealer. Wait a few seconds for the skin to absorb some of the powder and then use a specific brush to remove the excess and spread it all over the face.

Shadow

Now it’s time to apply the eyeshadow, if you don’t have eyeshadow skills, choose neutral tones. With a fluffy brush or with your fingers, apply this shadow all over the mobile eyelid and blend the edges so you don’t get a mark. A pretty eyeshadow is enough to change the look.

Eyebrow

Fill in your eyebrow following the natural design. The shade is usually easier for beginners and also makes the finish more natural. It is ideal to correct flaws and leave a more beautiful effect in makeup.

highlighter and blush

Afterwards, apply a blush on the cheekbones. If you don’t know where it is, smile and where to form some “balls”, it’s the right place to apply the blush. Apply on these balls taking it back (towards the ear). Blend well so you don’t get the “clown or slipper” effect.

Illuminator is optional. The application should be done above the cheekbone, a finger up from where you applied the blush. Be careful not to apply it in the dark circles area and cause the opposite effect. Also, apply below the eyebrows and on the tip of the nose.

eyelash mask

After finishing the skin and eye shadow, it’s time for the mascara. Go carefully so you don’t smudge your makeup. But if that happens, don’t despair, just use a damp cotton swab (Q swabs) on the spot and touch up your makeup.

Lipstick

You decide which lipstick you want or if you will just apply a gloss. Always follow the line of your mouth. To make this process easier, use a lip liner and contour before applying.

Okay, now you know how to make up yourself! Just train at home to always achieve a beautiful effect.
