Hey everyone! I’m going to share some tips that change how I do makeup. I only wish I had learned them sooner.

Tools and materials:

  • Water-based or gel-based moisturizer
  • Eye primer
  • Lash curler
  • Concealer 
  • Brow pen/pencil combo
  • Color corrector
  • Mascara
Lighting tips

1. Lighting tip


Do your makeup in the light in which you’re going to be seen.

Eye tips

2. Eye tips


To avoid gray under the eyes, conceal with your skin shade or a color corrector before going in with a brightening concealer.

Eye tips

Use a gel-based or water-based moisturizer under your eyes for optimal concealer application.

Eye tips

For that hollow under eyes, add a lighter concealer to the area above your dark circle line.

Eye tips

To prevent eyeshadow creasing use an eye primer instead of a concealer.

Eye tips

When applying eyeliner, open your eyes and rest your eyelids.

Eye tips

Align the metal part of your lash curler to the angle of your lash line.


Look in the opposite direction of where you’re applying your mascara.

Eye tips

Use a brow pencil and pen combo for the most realistic looking hairs.   

 

Tan tips

3. Tan tip


For a realistic tan, use a slightly reddish bronzer. This tells the eye the color came from the sun.

Contour tip

4. Contour tips

Use a contour that’s slightly darker, or greyer than your skin shade. This mimics the color of your existing shadows.

Contour tip

Place contour under where you want your cheekbone and jaw to sit.

Lip tip

5. Lip tips

If you have a double lip line, line the inner one on the sides and the outer one in the center.

    I’ll try, but I’m not good at applying make up. I keep wishing for somebody to do it for me so that I know how to apply make up.
