What is the best way to Apply Contour Makeup?

MAKEUP TIPS FOR BEGINNERS....ITS FAST, EASY, AND ANYONE CAN DO IT.

Steps

1. Start with cleansed, moisturised skin.
   1. Before applying any make up to your face, ensure that your skin is clean and you have applied a good moisturiser.
   2. Choose a moisturiser designed for your skin type and ideally with an SPF built in it.
   3. Pat it in gently and allow for 5 minutes for it to be absorbed into your skin.
2. Apply your foundation.
   • A good foundation product and application can make a world of difference to your appearance.
   1. Choose a foundation that is designed for your skin type and tone.
   2. Dot the foundation over your face, concentrating it in the centre where the most coverage is required.
   3. Gently blend in with your finger tips to get an even coverage.
   4. Never rub the foundation into your skin.
3. Put on the concealer.
   1. To cover blemishes, apply concealer cream to the tip of a small, flat brush and dab any excess on the back of your hand.
   2. Dot the concealer over the blemish. Clean the brush on a tissue and then use it to blend the concealer into your skin.
   3. Dot concealer from the bridge of your nose to halfway under the eye. Use a brush, sponge or your fingertips to blend the concealer. Do not apply concealer right up to your lower lashes, as this will make your eyes appear smaller and the dark under eye circles even darker.
4. Put on powder.
   • The golden rule when it comes to powder is less is definitely more.
   1. Load your powder brush with loose powder and lightly flick it on the back of your hand to get rid of any excess.
   2. Begin with light movements over the central areas of your face.
   3. Lightly push the powder into the areas around your nostrils and then dust your eyelids and ears lightly.
5. Carefully apply the eye shadow
   • The shade and way you apply your eye make up would depend on what kind of look you are going for.
   1. For a basic casual daytime look, choose a colour palette for 3 shades of the same family neutrals work best for daytime.
   2. Apply the lightest shade over the entire lid.
   3. Apply the second shade in the crease of your lid and gently blend into the first shade.
   4. Apply this medium shade lightly under your lower lashes.
   5. Apply the third (darkest) shade to the outer corner of your eye, blending it in with the medium shade.
6. Put on the mascara (carefully).
   1. Place the mascara brush at the base of your eyelashes, under your lashes.
   2. Wiggle the brush gently as you slowly pull it through your lashes.
   3. Repeat if necessary.
7. Define your eyebrows.
   • The easiest way to define your brows is to use an eyebrow pencil.
   1. Choose one in a shade lighter than your hair colour.
   2. Brush your brows using an eyebrow brush and ensure the tip of the pencil is sharp.
   3. Work along your brow using short, upward, diagonal movements.
   4. Use a cotton bud to soften any areas that look too dark or hard.
8. Contour your cheeks
   1. Using a medium-sized blush brush dipped in a blusher of your choice, lightly brush your cheeks in an upward motion.
   2. To make your face appear slimmer, suck your cheeks in and apply your blush to the hollow in your cheeks.
9. Make your lips beautiful.
   • With so many options to choose from when it comes to making your lip look ultra kissable, it simply boils down to your personal preferences.
   1. Apply a subtle, natural-coloured lip liner along your lips, taking care not to go outside of your natural lip line.
   2. Apply a lipstick of your choice.
   3. Blot with a tissue and then apply a second coat.
   4. You can finish off the look with a dab of gloss in the centre of your bottom lip.
10. Make it Last
    • We all hate spending plenty of time putting on our ?face? only to look in the mirror a few hours later to find our mascara has smudged, our powder has worn off and our eye shadow has creased.
    1. Immediately after applying your make up, use a face spray product (like MAC?s Fix+) that prolongs your make up and makes it last throughout the day.
11. The Finishing Touches
    • As with most things in life, the basics need to be learnt before you can start experimenting and going wild with your own make up look. Just keep in mind that make up is not there to completely change your appearance ? it is there to enhance your already beautiful features.

Tips

• Make up isn?t about rules ? it?s about experimenting and having fun with a look that compliments your features. However, applying make up can seem like a daunting task if you are not very experienced or know how to apply it properly. Here are a few guidelines that will teach you the basics of applying make up. From then, you can experiment and create your very own unique look.
