pictures for a visual and lots of exercise. There are lots of various kinds of
makeup products and makeup tools that it is important to know what they are all
used for. Some people wear the same makeup through the day and night, while

one for daytime use.
Makeup has been for years and continuous to enhance and
intrigue us with new ideas and pretty packaging. With all of the makeup
counters at the shopping mall and so many different brands to choose from at
the drug stores it`s wonderful to riffle through and pick colors and brands
that will work. The best thing to do is to have a look through magazines and
find a look that you like.
Try to find a model that has the same hair color and skin
tone as you. Once you do find a look you like, check the bottom of the
magazine, sometimes there is a note in tiny writing that tells you what the
model is wearing. And if you don`t want to buy the certain brands she is
wearing, at least you can copy the colors.
Foundation is the first portion of the facial routine you will
need to have. Some people put on a lot while other people just apply it on
lightly. It can be applied with a brush or a damp sponge, some people even use
their fingers, however the skin oils from your fingers can cause the makeup to
just smear around. For best effects it is suggested that you dot and mix
lightly. Foundation is great for covering pores, black heads and evening out
skin tone.
Some foundation features sunscreen and others state to help
pimple breakouts. To see if the foundation is right for you, test a little
amount out on the back of your hand and see if it mixes, if it does then it is
fantastic. You can apply a dot on your nose, cheeks and forehead and use the
makeup tool or your fingers to mixture the cream around your face. Take extra care
all around your hairline and chin area to make sure it is well blended.
After foundation you can put some corrective concealer if
your skin requires it. A mauve color will help to add color to under the eyes
where there may be some darkish circles. While green concealer can help to hid
red blothy skin and bad spots. Concealer can come in a cream, powder and
pencil.

light up your face and develop the finished look to your canvas. There are several
various kinds of lip stick available. Lip gloss, puts a shimmer of color and
gloss to the lips and may or may not have a scent to it, the color looks nice
for a brief time and then has to be reapplied.

for a long time. This is generally put on and then you have to paint on a thin
layer of sealer. It generally comes with the lipstick. The sealer will help the
lipstick to stay on after meals, beverages and can last all day. Frequent
lipstick can be applied and remain on, it can last from an hour and on based
upon on what your doing after you put it on. A lot of people have to keep
applying it through-out the day. Lipstick can be applied on its own, or you can
line the lips with a slightly darker shade. The liner helps to make lips look
fuller and helps to keep the color on the lips longer.
