Full Face Makeup Guide
In this article, we will be giving you a step by step guide to do makeup by yourself. Here have a look at the article to know the details!
Step 1- Apply Primer On The T-Zone
Start the makeup by applying the primer on the T-zone of your face, which is your nose and the forehead. Applying primer on this area is important as these are the areas where we sweat a lot and our makeup tends to get removed because of the sweat. So, to keep the makeup intact perfectly, use a primer first.
Step 2- Dot Up And Then Blend The Foundation
After applying the primer on the T-zone, take the foundation and dot it up on your entire face and neck. After that, using a beauty blender or a blending brush, blend your foundation properly in a way that no creases or brush marks left behind. Also, make sure to use the shade that exactly matches your skin tone to look good, as the purpose of the foundation is to even the tone and not to lighten or darken it.
Step 3- Conceal The Dark Areas
Concealing is an important part of doing full face makeup and to create a flawless base. One should a shade lighter than their actual shade to hide any dark spots, blemishes and other affected areas. All you need to do is dot up the dark circles and blemishes and blend it using a blender or a blending brush. Also, using concealer highlights the required areas, making you look flawless.
Step 4- Set The Base Using A Loose Powder
Setting a base using a loose powder protects it from getting ruined by sweat. Also, it gives that extra highlighting and edge to the face. You can use loose powder under the eyes to set the concealers and just above your jawline add the edge to your look.
Step 5- Contour The Face Well
Contouring helps to add that extra edge to the look. It shapes the face well and makes the face look thinner than it actually is. Also, when you don’t have that sharp jawline but blessed with chubby cheeks, then contour will come handy. Apply contour powder of stick on your cheekbones and jawline, then blend it all well.
Step 6- Now It’s Time For The Eye Makeup
Doing eye makeup completely depends on the type of makeup you want. The basic one must do is to apply a lighter shade of the inner corners for the eye and on the inner eyelid. Then make a crease using dark eyeshadow and blend it down to the outer eyelid. And to finish the look don’t forget to slay by apply mascara and different eyeliner styles like winged and Arabian, that are too in trend nowadays.
Step 7- Finish It Off With A Blush, Highlighter And Lipstick
At last, finish off the look by applying blush to give you that plumpy look and to add that pop of colour, but make sure not to go overboard with the blush. Then apply highlighter on the apple of your cheeks, brow bone, bridge of your nose and cupid’s bow. In the end, complete the look by applying your favourite shade of lipstick and trust us, this last step will completely change your look.
Step 8 – Then Set It All With A Setting Spray
Though this step is completely your personal choice, but we would highly recommend using a setting spray, in the end, to let your makeup last all day long.
