Makeup Skills For That Perfect Look

Apply makeup does not need to be difficult. In order to maintain the most beautiful appearance, however, it is important to know what you are doing when it comes to makeup. Follow these basic and advanced makeup tips and looking naturally more beautiful, is easy.

MAKEUP
A beautiful makeover begins with the right foundation. When women with yellow-based skin wear foundation that is too pink or orange, it often looks artificial and two-toned. This is because the undertone in the foundation "clashes" with our natural yellow-based skin. To create the look naturally flawless skin, you must wear a foundation with a yellow base. They perfectly match every complexion, leaving your skin looking flawless and natural-looking. You never look orangey, pasty or un-natural.

SKIN CARE
* Clear healthy skin is the perfect canvas for makeup.
* For excessively oily skin use mild gel cleansers to gently wash away the excess oils.
* Regardless of skin color or skin type you must use a daily moisturizer with at least SPF 15 sun protection. This is one of the most important makeup tips.

FOUNDATION MAKEUP
*Compact powder foundation helps to smooth the skin and it allows your makeup to look better. The method is very simple. You only put moist makeup sponge into refrigerator. After a few minutes, smooth the foundation all over the face and then pat your face with cold makeup sponge. It leaves the skin feeling particularly fresh and makes facial skin appear young and pure.
*For a great makeover you must start with the right foundation. Whereas eye shadow, lipstick, and blush accent the face, it is the foundation that sets the tone for a woman's appearance.
*If you are like most women, you have yellow-based skin and must wear a yellow-based foundation. Test your foundation on the jaw line or forehead.
* On your jaw line, apply the shade you believe to be closest to your skin tone. Apply the next lighter shade above and the next darker shade below. The shade that disappears into your skin, is the correct shade for your complexion.

FACE POWDER MAKEUP
*Keep your compact powder handy for touch ups during the day. If you 'shine' a lot you should use an oil absorbent powder.

CHEEK COLOR MAKEUP
*When applying blush use a darker shade to contour your face and "lift" your cheekbones. Apply from the earlobe downward to mid-cheek so you do not leave a"blob"of color on the cheek. Use light colors of blush to highlight.

EYE MAKEUP
* With a bit of practice you can easily master how to apply your eye shadow. When applying eyeshadow, remember that dark colors recede features and light colors highlight.
* Apply the lightest shade over the entire eyelid.
* Apply the medium shade on the lower eyelid.
* Apply the darkest shade in the outer corner of the eye to create depth.
* Apply eyeliner with short strokes, starting form the center of the eye and working towards the corners.
* Mascara finishes your makeup. If you have dark eyes use black, navy, dark brown or clear mascara.

LIP COLOR MAKEUP
* Choose a lipstick which reflects your personal psyche.
* Use a lip brush when applying lipstick. It will not only help define the contours of your mouth, but also helps to control the amount of color that is applied.
* Applying powder lightly over the lips before applying lipstick helps it to stay on longer.
* Use a Vitamin E Stick under your lipstick to condition and protect your lips from becoming chapped and dry.
* Use Lip Gloss alone to give a light, natural but finished look or over your lipstick to enhance its color.
* For easy lipstick stain removal, apply glycerine to affected area and wash as usual.
