Basic Make-up Tips?

Aight...I think I wanna start wearing make-up. Where do I start? and How do I apply it to make it look natural?Basic Make-up Tips?
Liquid foundation is meant to match your skin tone and blend in at the jawline into the neck. It helps to even out uneven skin tones and imperfections. Try to stick to clean liquids that are oil and fragrance free so they wont clog pores and they let your skin breathe.I apply my liquid foundation with a beauty sponge. It helps even the application process. Make sure you apply it all over so it doesnt appear blotchy. Also, make it light and even. If your foundation seems to be too dark, find a non-tinted moisturizer and blend it with the foundation before application. It lightens the color. Concealer application depends on what form the concealer is in. If it is a wand, just dab it on and let it set for a moment, then VERY GENTLY blend with your fingertip, being careful not to wipe it off during the blending. Concealer brushes are great application tools for stick or compact concealers. Very easy to apply and blend with. After the liquid foundation and concealer is on, I set it with powder. I use a big foundation brush to apply the powder all over my face. It doesnt matter if the powder is loose or compact, it will work for both. If you use a compact that comes with one of those cotton pads for application, use it carefully. You may use it to apply the powder, but do not use it over the spots that you have used concealer. Since you are applyling pressure when using the cotton pad, it wipes of what you have concealed. Lightly apply the powder with a brush and it will set what you have concealed. Use a fan brush to blend everything in at the jaw and into the neck. Pick a blush that has a natural ';flushed'; color and apply it on your cheekbones in one or two quick, outward motion swipes. SInce you want a ';natural'; look and you are just starting to wear makeup, I wouldnt experiment with too much eye color just yet. Pick a black or brown eye liner. With your eye closed, start at the inner corner of your upper lid, draw a thin and straight line as close to your lashes as you can. You may gently pull your lid at the outer corner just to make it taught and flat so its easier to draw a straight line. It may take a while to perfect the straight line, so practice. If you really want to use color, choose an eyeliner color that you like and apply the same way. Eyeliner is a simple but noticeable way to bring out your eyes without looking too ';made up';. Play up your lashes with black or brown mascara. Apply it lightly from the base of the lash (eyelid) to the tips. You can finish your natural look with a pretty pink lip gloss. Try to choose one that is close to your natural lip color, but will still give your lips a lil bit of a ';pop';. (I like Glow Baby Glow gloss from Avon Mark in the color PInk Crush.) Make-up can clog your pores so make sure to wash your face after wearing it. Remove all your eye make-up and then wash your entire face with a gentle cleanser. Wearing make-up is fun but it takes some work and practice. Play with different looks and figure out what you like. Also, make sure that the look you have chosen suits you, the occassion, and your age. You don't want to look overdone. Be sure to take care of your skin! You may regret it if you dont! I hope this helps! Magazines are a good place to find great make-up tips and looks. Good luck!Basic Make-up Tips?

find a foundation to match your skin tone that is oil free and is light so it dosn't block pores.. remeber to use make-up removers or something like that before you go to sleep. if you are to use blush pink or brownish are the best depending on your complexion for example if your blonde and have fair skin pink!! buy a decent mascara and then your set!!!





hope that helps could have explained it a little better though hope you get what im saying lol





anyway have fun!!!
Alright well first u got to start with a clean even base, this meens exfoliate (abricot scrub) and moisterise. Make sure you let the moistriser sink in before you apply make up. One tip that you must do! apply your make up in natural light, go to a mirror near a window or hold a hand one in natural light, make sure ur founation is blended in and use the right shade never a shade to dark, (maybeline dream matt mousse is good) blend into hair and neckline with a little moistirizer so you dont get tide marks. if u want to use blusher i reccomend dabbing on a little maybeline dream matt blusher, powder ones can look cakey. i wouldnt bother with eye shadow or lipstick just a thin line of black eye line, a coat of mascara (max factor volume) and a bit of lip gloss (loreal glam shine in pink moon) hope this helps remeber little is somtimes more, dont over do coloured make up and dont use orange foundation. Hope this helps bye !
start with having clean, moisturised skin. Buy a non-drying cleanser, toner and moisturiser so your skin would be clean and fresh. then buy the right foundation for your skin tone and type. :)
i started off with mascara and lipgloss, then gradually added blush. you can always go to a make up counter with your mom and have them do it (at Sephora is recommended)
First, it is good to start with a tinted moisturiser, mascara, blusher and lipgloss





Invest in a tinted moisturiser so that you get foundation and moisturiser combined in one bottle. buy shades that are one shade lighter than your skin tone. test it on your jawline, massaging in circular motion to see if it blends. I particularly like Neutrogena





For starters, invest in a basic set of an eyelash curler and makeup brushes(for eyeshadow, blush, lips, eyelash and eyebrow) I really love MAC brushes.





1.Prep your face by cleansing, toning and then applying the tinted moisturiser.





2.Curl lashes(bottom, middle and top section) by holding the eyelash curler firmly for 5 seconds on each section.


Apply a basic coat of mascara with gentle, flicking upward strokes.


Then, apply a second coat by brushing through the lashes in a zig-zag motion for really luscious lashes.





3.Swipe the blusher blush through blush powder and start from the apples of your cheeks, and brushing upwards from the apples along the cheekbones. For the natural look, use a bronze or orange-based blusher.





4. Apply lipgloss! You can even skip the rest of the makeup and still look fresh with only lipgloss.





As you become more familiar, you can start applying eyeshadow, eye liner and experiment with different lip colours.


Scrimp on lipgloss and powders, but invest in a good mascara and eye pencil to prevent infections!


Most imptly, always remove makeup for clean skin(:
