Useful tips for perfect makeup

Do you have those days that your makeup just doesn’t want to stay good… your liner refuses to go on straight or your lashes don’t want to curl. Well now we’ve asked some of the best professional artists to tell us how to do makeup without troubles.

The first thing you need to do if you really want to apply  your makeup like a professional is use the proper brushes. The eight basic brushes are Foundation brush, Concealer brush,  Fluffy powder brush,
Blush brush, Small blending brush, Flat eye-shadow brush, Precision angle brush and Lip brush.  The most important thing is to know how to hold them, so the tip here is to place your fingers on the center of the brush handle.

For great looking cream foundation you can mix it with some primer. This also helps the makeup blend seamlessly with the first layer of primer on your skin.

The third tip is about those redness, around the nose for example, that we want to hide. There is a color wheel and we are choosing from it. Professionals say that opposite colors cancel each other out, so green-pigmented concealer covers redness, and orangey concealer removes blue. If you use your beige concealer, it'll only make those areas look muddy.

If there is something that you don’t like about your face you can change it too. For example your button nose, round face or prominent forehead. All those things could be changed shading some spots and lighting the others. If you have a flat or wide nose you should shade alongside your bridge starting from your inner brows. Then highlight right on the center of your nose.  If you have a prominent forehead than you should shade around the outer edge of your forehead along your hairline to minimize the area with bronzer. In case you have a round face and want to make it look more oval you can apply a bronzer a shade or two darker than your skin tone in shape alongside your face.

We’ve found out that you can use the same info to alter my eye shape, too. Whether you have drooping lids, narrow-set eyes, or they're simply too small, you can use light and shadow to change them. 

Our sixth tip is simple, but super important. When you're trying to pick the most flattering eye-shadow colors you can use again the trick with the opposite colors. When two of those are next to each other they are helping to each other to stand out.

The other thing that is not that easy is putting eyeliner. Our tip for you is simple but useful. You're supposed to go from the inner corner to the center of your lid, then reload the brush and start from the outside corner until you meet the existing liner.

There are a few steps for perfect lips too. Apply foundation to your entire lip. Using a white eyeliner pencil, very softly feather the pencil over the natural contour of the lip than redo the line with a lip pencil in the color of your lipstick. Apply lipstick with a lip brush in a downward motion. Apply a light shade of base foundation around the new lip line.

Our last tip for you is how to conceal those under-eye circles.  With your concealer brush, swipe the color-correcting concealer under your eye in a "V" shape from your outer to inner corner.  Then, buff the concealer into your skin, until you get to the center of your lower lid, where you'll want to feather the concealer for a lighter application. Seems difficult but it’s really useful.

We hope these advises will help you out to look even more fabulous than now.
