10 common mistakes

Improperly applied foundation

The most common mistake is putting too thick a layer of foundation on your face. This leads to a heavier image, creating negligence and sloppiness. This error is most often made by those who have problem areas of skin (redness, pimples, dark skin). It is better to hide problem areas point by point using a corrector or pigment.

Poorly chosen foundation

The color of the foundation plays an extremely important role. An inappropriate shade visually creates a mask on the face. It is important to remember that in summer, due to tanning, the skin changes color, so for summer and for winter period You need to purchase different foundations. Often problems with choosing the right tone arise due to a yellowish tint on the face. In this case, you can add a little yellow pigment to the foundation. This will help create the desired color.

Applying foundation to areas that are flaking

If you have problems with peeling, you should initially use a facial scrub, then apply a moisturizer to the skin. Only after this can you start applying foundation.

Wrong blush or bronzer

Instead of blush, many girls use bronzer. However, brown blush does not exist in nature. Blush can be Pink colour, red, coral. Perfect option– if their color matches the color of the lipstick.

Untidy eyebrows

Many people underestimate the importance of eyebrows in overall makeup. Remember: they should always be in perfect order, even if you are not wearing makeup. Ungroomed eyebrows are the first thing that catches your eye.

Glued eyelashes

Eyelashes stick together most often due to excessively applied mascara. It must have a comfortable brush. It is advisable to comb them with a special brush after applying mascara. Light is better and a neat layer than a thickly painted and clumped row of eyelashes.

Pale lips

To emphasize your eyes, you don’t have to paint your lips a very pale color or cover them with foundation. A natural lipstick color or a clear gloss would look ideal.

Apply liberally of powder

Powder is used to make makeup last, to set it, and not as a separate element.

Poorly chosen shadows

The choice of shadows must be approached very carefully. Not all shades are compatible with different types skin and eye color.

Lip line too dark

The lip pencil should be the same color as the lipstick or one shade darker.

When applied correctly, it can change a woman not only externally, but even internally, giving her confidence in her own irresistibility. It’s a pity, but most representatives of the fair sex do not know how to use decorative cosmetics correctly. To fill the gaps in knowledge and understand this simple matter in practice, we will consider in detail how to properly apply makeup at home. Photos of step-by-step work in each area of ​​the face and tips from professional makeup artists will help you avoid the most common mistakes, and also teach you how to emphasize the advantages and hide existing flaws in appearance.

The desire to decorate oneself is inherent in a woman by nature itself. Long before the appearance of prototypes of modern cosmetics, representatives of the fair sex found an opportunity to emphasize their beauty and individuality. In the time of Cleopatra, lips were given a tint by applying crushed crimson-colored bugs to them (which, by the way, had the smell of decomposed meat, so kissing such “beauty” most likely was not very pleasant).

To even out the tone and hide skin imperfections, apply a thick layer to the face and neck. White powder, the basis of which was lead (later it was found out that it was this powder that in many cases caused the death of many beauties). Instead of blush, they used a mixture of berries and herbs, many of which were poisonous and caused a terrible allergic reaction. Indeed, what lengths can you go to for the sake of beauty...

Makeup and its main types

Today's beauties, of course, do not expose themselves to such dangers and trials. The only danger from using decorative cosmetics incorrectly is that they are spoiled appearance. Knowing your color type, skin characteristics, positive features of appearance and, of course, how to do makeup correctly in accordance with these factors, time of day and upcoming event, you can easily create a stunning image and feel like a real queen.

There are two types of makeup. Target simple makeup is to emphasize individuality and positive facial features. The main task is not to spoil what nature has given and to focus on the most expressive features.

When it comes to performing complex makeup, first of all, this indicates the need to hide visible skin imperfections, correct defects and imperfections, or correct the shape. Whether in the first or second option, it is not enough to have a large amount of high-quality cosmetics. It is quite possible to achieve amazing results with a minimum set, but you just need to know how to apply makeup correctly and be able to do it in practice.

Color type matters

To ensure that the tone of powder, blush, and lipstick is chosen correctly and does not spoil your appearance, but exclusively emphasizes its advantages, you need to know your color type. There are four main types: winter, autumn, summer and spring. Each of them has its own distinctive features, and in order not to look funny in the eyes of others, one must correspond to these features.

What is a color type? This characteristic features a person's appearance. First of all, hair and eye color and skin tone are taken into account. It is these shades that you should rely on when choosing not only clothes, but also cosmetics.

	Winter	Spring	Summer	Autumn
(natural)	All shades of black, chocolate and platinum blonde possible	Light brown, light red, light chestnut	White or light brown, but always with an ashy tint	All shades of red and copper
	Any shades, but in any case, the skin seems transparent	Very soft, velvety, with a delicate peach blush	Smooth cool tone regardless of shade	Warm colors are a must (peach, bronze)
Eyes	Regardless of color, they are very contrasting to the protein	Delicate combinations of two or more shades	Regardless of color, they have matte whites and the iris of the pupil	All options are possible. Often shades change depending on the weather and mood.
Matching colors	All cool shades, especially emerald and steel	Light shades, especially peach and caramel	Cool, subtle shades, especially blues, lemon yellows and crimsons	All warm shades, especially red, mustard, terracotta and olive
Inappropriate colors	Red, baked milk, brick, smoky gray	White, black, gray and blue	Black, orange, brick	Black, white, purple and pastel colors
Makeup	The main thing is the play of tones. Correct application of bright shades and their shading will help create the perfect image.	Emphasis on pastel colors. Bright colors better not to use	All cool smoky shades.	Golden, terracotta, olive colors.

If you find it difficult to determine the color type, ask your friends for help. They will be able to more accurately assess your appearance without makeup and give practical advice.

So, the color type has been determined, the tones of eye shadow, blush and lipstick have been selected, which means you can start applying cosmetics. Regardless of the makeup, the steps for applying it are the same, but if there is a need to make a bright accent on the lips or eyes, the order can be changed.

Cleansing and moisturizing

Cleansing and moisturizing the skin is the main rule for those who want to learn how to do makeup correctly at home. The fact is that no matter how high-quality the makeup base, foundation, corrector and powder are, applied to dirty skin they will only age it and create the impression of untidiness and negligence. But this does not mean that you need to do a deep cleansing of your face every time. It is enough to wipe the skin with toner or cleansing milk, but only on the condition that not washing your face in the evenings is not part of your habit. In this case, these methods will not help.

Base and foundation

Often girls immediately apply foundation to their face and this only spoils their entire makeup, especially for those with oily and oily skin. combination skin. Just a couple of hours will pass and your face will acquire an oily sheen, and trying to hide it with powder will only achieve a temporary effect.

After applying the base, you need to use a corrector to hide or hide other flaws in your appearance.

Concealer Not intended to cover the entire face. Pay attention to its name - tonal, which means it serves to give tone, and this tone is needed to emphasize or, on the contrary, smooth out the cheekbones, forehead line and bridge of the nose. The foundation is applied to the tips of the fingers, distributed over the desired areas with light pats, and then shaded with a brush and lightly powdered.

Beautiful eyebrows

The shape of the brow ridges is of great importance, and most importantly, if nature has stinted on such a reward for appearance, you can create them yourself. If you apply makeup evenly in one tone, it will look vulgar and unnatural. It is better to first determine the upper and lower boundaries, carefully but carefully draw the arch of the eyebrow and its base. Then shade the main part with the selected eyeshadow color.

Eyes

Before you start painting your eyes, you need to determine the type of makeup. If it is for daytime, you should not use more than two shades of eyeshadow. First, use a brown or black pencil to shade the growth line and mucous membrane of the upper eyelid. This will visually increase the volume of the eyelashes and give expressiveness to the look. Then you need to apply shadows. This is best done with a round applicator and blended with a brush. WITH inside eyes always apply the lightest shade, and limit the outer shade to dark ones. Lower eyelid better with a pencil do not outline, as the eye will acquire boundaries and begin to appear smaller. All that remains is to apply mascara.

Lips

The tone of the lipstick is of great importance. It depends primarily on the time of day, the upcoming event and the general style of the image being created. Shades that are as close to natural as possible look best, but if the occasion is solemn, more saturated colors are also allowed. When choosing lipstick, you need to take into account eye makeup, because the emphasis should be distributed either evenly or placed on one thing. First, using a pencil that is one tone darker than lipstick, the contour of the lips is outlined, creating the desired shape. Then, using a special brush, shade the lipstick over the lips so that the tone in the middle is lighter than at the edges.

Basic rules for good makeup

When starting to apply makeup, remember that the most important thing in any makeup:

Popular articles:

1. perfect tone faces;
2. neat well-groomed eyebrows.

What do we mean when we say " perfect tone"? Color foundation should match the complexion, and the use of a colored corrective concealer in the presence of problem areas (bruises, pimples, scars, dark circles under the eyes) definitely.

LAMITON smart foundation is a godsend!

Finding the perfect foundation is extremely difficult, since in stores, as a rule, the lighting is quite dim. To avoid problems with different complexions of the face and neck, you should pay attention to latest developments like a smart foundation. It takes on the desired shade and makes makeup as natural as possible.

Just a couple of years ago we didn’t pay so much attention eyebrows. Today, a large number of products specifically for them have appeared in the decorative cosmetics store. What happened? The thing is that makeup artists realized how important beautiful eyebrows in makeup in general. Sloppy eyebrows can ruin even the most perfect makeup. Too thin plucked or, conversely, very thick massive ones - this is what you should avoid. The ideal option is a natural form.

HANDAIYAN is the perfect eyebrow pencil!

Applying foundation

We apply foundation or BB cream that matches the color perfectly. Choose those toning products that have a light yellow pigment. They are ideal for European women. Apply with a slightly damp beauty blender or a special synthetic bristle brush.

Setting tone with powder

We use loose powder in makeup to set the tone. It is preferable to fix only the T-zone, which quickly becomes shiny due to sebum secretion.

You can use transparent or white transparency. The main thing to remember is that powder is an auxiliary product that mattifies and sets the foundation. It is applied with a large fluffy brush in small quantities. During the day, you can lightly powder the T-zone with compact powder or blot with mattifying wipes.

Face correction with dry correctors

We shape the face, because after creating the ideal tone, it turns into a blank page without natural shadows and glare.

1. Blackout: Using a soft natural bristle brush, pick up a little dry corrector Brown(Mac “Harmony” is ideal), we drive it on the hand and with light movements we draw it under the cheekbone (starting from the middle of the cheek we go “no” towards the cheekbones), along the hairline, the sides of the nose, under the chin, slightly under the lip.
2. Highlighting. Use a highlighter to highlight the bridge of the nose, tick above upper lip, chin, protruding part of the cheekbone, under the eyebrow, inner corner of the eye, middle of the forehead.

Blend everything thoroughly!

Eyebrow drawing

Comb with a special brush, directing the hairs upward. Using a pale pink or white pencil, draw a line under the eyebrows and shade it slightly. For correction, use an angled hard brush and matte shadows or a special hard eyebrow pencil.

If desired, you can fix it with a special transparent or brown gel (today there is a huge selection in stores for both blondes and brunettes).

Step by step eye makeup

On at this stage you can adjust the shape of your eyes, but we will consider the average light daytime makeup.

Stage 1 of eye makeup. Apply a base under the shadows (the primer makes the shadows more durable, helps them adhere better and shades well).

Stage 2 eye makeup. Apply dark matte shadows to the outer corner of the eye and the crease of the upper eyelid, and light ones to the inner corner. Shade the border. You can add a little brown matte shadow to the outer corner of the lower eyelid along the lash line, reaching the middle of the eye (shade).

Stage 3 of makeup. Highlight your eyes with black pencil or eyeliner. You can simply walk along the lash line or make a soft arrow on the upper eyelid and shade it going beyond the edges of the eye and lifting it up (this will make the eye much larger).

4 Eye makeup stage (optional). Paint over the mucous membranes of the eyes with a light pink or beige pencil.

Stage 5 eye makeup. Apply makeup to your eyelashes, curling them slightly and focusing on the roots at the base (many people like to paint only the ends of their eyelashes, but over time they droop from the weight and we don’t get big eyes, but the completely opposite effect).

Applying blush

Take pink (peach or coral can be) blush and apply it to the apples of the cheeks, which form when we smile. Lightly blend towards the temples. Lightly brush along the tip of the nose and around the perimeter of the face to create color harmony in your makeup!

Lip makeup

We moisturize the lips with balm and stain with your favorite lipstick. If you want to create a more lasting effect, fill your lips completely with a pencil, the same shade as the lipstick, and only then apply lipstick.

Fixing makeup

Spray thermal water or makeup fixative(not a mandatory step, but desirable for evening makeup).

How to choose the right cosmetics

The choice of cosmetics is one of the most important issues, because good cosmetics It’s inexpensive, and cheap ones don’t always please with their quality.

foundation should suit your skin type and meet your needs:

• light texture and color;
• rich color and high covering power;
• durability;
• additional hydration or mattifying ability.

How to choose the right foundation color? When choosing a shade, do not main mistake, which absolutely everyone does - test the product on the wrist. The shade of the hands and face is very different. Apply a small amount of product to the area under your eyes and blend across your cheek. When you go outside, look at yourself in daylight. Stores often make the mistake of turning on yellow lamps, which neutralize redness. This is why when we come home, we are often disappointed with our purchase.

It is best to apply the product to your face and live with it all day. A good store will not deny you the opportunity to test the foundation correctly. You must understand whether you are comfortable or not and whether this product can withstand your rhythm of life.

U lipstick the main thing is color and texture. Apply a little lipstick to your hand and decide if the texture is pleasant to you. Next, apply it to your lips and take a closer look at the color. Do not test the color on your hand as this will also distort the color. You can apply a little on the inside of your fingers as it is almost the same color as your lips.

The only universal lipstick color that will suit absolutely everyone is a cool-toned red (if you rub it on your hand, it should fade to pink).

It is advisable to buy loose powder, and use pressed powder only to throw in your handbags and touch up throughout the day. The crumbly one lays down in a thin light layer, while the pressed one tends to layer.

Blush It’s better to choose cream ones, so they look as natural as possible. The color can be cold or warm pink, peach.

Mascara choosing is not that difficult. Just decide what you need: make your eyelashes longer or thicker.

Concealer should be a little denser than the tone and one tone lighter, but no more.

Eyebrow pencil or shadow must be brown or gray-brown without “red.” It is best to choose a shade that is a shade lighter than your eyebrows.

Eyeliner We choose according to the principle of shading. Draw a small line on your hand, wait a little and rub it. If the line is practically not smeared, we take it.

What can you save on?

We all know that the more expensive the cosmetics, the better the quality. But there are ways you can save money.

And also, which are great for home use.

What should you not save on?

foundation It must be expensive and good, since we apply it to our faces and live with it all day long. But the most important thing is that the quality of makeup depends only on it. You can have an expensive foundation, but all other products are very cheap and no one will notice. A cheap foundation will be stained, will be too “red” or even look like a mask.
