Secrets of creating a simple makeup for every day
Cosmetics was originally designed to emphasize the dignity of a woman's face and correct imperfections or small defects on it. Of course, if we are talking about light makeup, then it implies weightlessness and ease of execution. And this implies the absence of a large number of cosmetics and layering. Therefore, it is first necessary to determine what is needed to create an easy andquick makeup:
- Clean he althy skin. A very important point for creating everyday makeup is good skin. Then you don’t have to diligently hide something behind five layers of concealer. In order for the skin to be he althy and clean, you need to choose the right care, as well as lead a he althy lifestyle: eat well, get enough sleep, walk a lot in the fresh air. You need to drink at least 2 liters of purified water per day.
- Essential makeup kit. In the event that you are not new to cosmetic matters, then you probably have some supplies of cosmetics, brushes and beauty tools. If you are a beginner, then it is best to make a list of the most necessary items and go with it to a cosmetic store. Please note that in cosmetics it is better to give preference to quality over quantity.
Preparing everything you need
For a light everyday make-up, you will need a small set of cosmetics, namely:
- suitable face cream;
- light foundation emulsion, cream or fluid;
- liquid concealer;
- pastel eyeshadow palette;
- lip gloss or light lipstick;
- mascara;
- matting powder;
- eyebrow shadow or pencil;
- blush in gentle tones.
Plus, you will need a beauty blender (sponge for foundation), resfeder, brushes. Consider your skin type when choosing cosmetics, then makeup will last better and look more natural.
Leather
As mentioned above,clean skin is the key to a successful light make-up at home. For more radiance of the skin, we recommend using facial peeling 1-2 times a week, removing dead cells. After peeling, your face will be fresh and smooth.
If your skin is far from perfect, we advise you to refrain from dense textures in principle. But if your problem is bruising under the eyes, then still choose a dense concealer. We advise you to do the same if there are redness and rashes on the face. But the tonal fluid should still be light.
Equalize the tone
Use a moisturizer before applying makeup. So cosmetics will lie better on the face, last longer.
Another one of the secrets of how to quickly create a good tone for the face to make it look natural: you need to moisten the beauty blender in water, wring it out, then apply a few drops of foundation on it, apply with driving movements to the surface of the face. Light, but almost perfect tone is ready!
If your skin doesn't need a foundation or if you're wearing light makeup for the summer, then don't wear it every day to get the perfect face. It makes sense to do with concealer and powder without clogging the pores, allowing the skin to breathe.
Powder
The topic of our article is light makeup, so we must go the path of least resistance. That is, choose the most easy-to-use cosmetics. For such a make-up, loosepowder. It is almost invisible on the face due to its microparticles. Such a powder does not emphasize peeling, if any.
If loose powder seems too light, then compact powder is your choice. It should be remembered that the shade of powder must be chosen according to the color of the neck. For light makeup, it should not be too dark or with shiny particles. The best choice is matte light beige.
Apply blush
You can completely refuse this product if you do not consider it necessary to use it. But still, soft peach or light pink blush, applied to the apples of the cheeks or cheekbones, is very refreshing in appearance and adds youth to the face. Very often you can meet women with pronounced cheekbones, but this is not our case. For everyday makeup, you only need to slightly emphasize the lines of the face.
Shaping eyebrows
The most fashionable part of the face is the eyebrows. Yes, yes, they are! It seems the world has gone crazy in pursuit of the perfect thick and styled brows. But the fact remains, and we will not ignore global trends. For eyebrow shaping, you can use any means: shadows, pencil, gel. What do you prefer. For example, take eyebrow shadows. For a quick make-up, you need to brush your eyebrows with a brush, blend the shadows of the desired shade with a thin brush and fix with a transparent gel on top.
Eye makeup
After drawing the eyebrows, you can start light everyday eye makeup. To do this, you will need a palette with neutral shades of shadows or single shadows. From bright colorsit is better to refuse, as they require much more time to work with them.
First you need to apply the lightest color of the shadows on the entire moving eyelid. By the way, you can apply shadows without using a brush, but do it with your finger. From the heat of the body, the shadows melt a little and lie better. Next, apply a darker shade along the ciliary edge and shade with a brush, creating a little haze. Under the eyebrow and in the corner of the eye, apply a drop of mother-of-pearl, almost white shadows. In conclusion, you need to paint over the eyelashes with mascara. Black mascara is considered a classic option. But for girls with blond, blond or dark blond hair, we advise you to look at brown. It is perfect for everyday makeup, it does not look flashy, but at the same time it undermines the eyelashes well.
Painting lips
For daily makeup, you do not need to have a whole row of lipsticks and glosses in your arsenal. In fact, the effect of well-groomed and sensual lips can be achieved without using cosmetics at all. If you want to know some of the secrets that makeup artists use, read on.
So, first you need to learn that lips (just like our skin) need constant renewal, which means good peeling. Today there are a lot of beauty novelties: all kinds of scrubs and exfoliating lipsticks. But you can do without all this, replacing them with improvised means.
To remove all the bumps and particles of the skin, to make the lips soft and tender, you need to take a simple toothbrush. And, slightly wetting it with water, gently massage her lips. Some people need a soft bristle brush, others need a coarser one. The best option is a medium-hard brush with natural bristles. After such a procedure, you will no longer be able to do without it!
Next, it would be nice to nourish the lips and make them even softer. To do this, take honey and gently apply on the surface of the lips. Well, if the honey is candied, then when applied to the lips with sugar particles, you can make a light peeling. Then it just needs to be left on the lips. After 15 minutes, wash off or eat honey from the lips, admire the result.
After such useful and simple procedures, except for a light gloss or hygienic moisturizing lipstick, you most likely will not need anything. If your hair is dark and you want to add a little more brightness, then you can choose translucent glosses with pigment. They are great for light make-up brunettes.
Makeup for the evening
It also happens that you are about to go to bed, when suddenly your friends call and invite you to a party. Or your man is waiting in a restaurant, and there is little time for careful preparation. What to do in this case? Read about how to do light makeup for the evening in our article.
To begin with, as in the case of daytime makeup, cleanse the face, apply a moisturizer and give it time to absorb. Next, you need to decide on what will be the main focus in makeup - eyes or lips. Consider an example with an emphasis on the eyes. The sequence of applying evening make-up as a whole does not differ from the daytime make-up. Differenceonly in the density of coverage and the brightness of the lines. Makeup for the evening should be brighter and more visible.
After applying tone, concealer, blush and powder, you need to shape your eyebrows, following the instructions above. And then you can start applying shadows.
Smoky eyes, or "smoky eyes", perfect for any event. The main advantage is that this makeup suits absolutely all types of appearance and does not require special skills.
So, with a black pencil, draw an eye along the upper and lower ciliary edge, slightly shade. Next, fill the entire moving eyelid with black shadows. Follow with a black pencil to bring the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid and with a thin brush, having previously typed black shadows on it, draw over the pencil. Then the lines where there is a pencil are very good to shade until the haze effect is obtained.
After applying eyeshadow with a pearly pink or cherry gloss, make up your lips. This makeup is perfect for any evening!
