Preparation for makeup
Cosmetics:
1. Ordinary lotion; 2. Foundation (choose either liquid foundation or powder); 3. Eyebrow pencil; 4. Eye shadow; 5. Mascara; 6. Lip gloss; 7. Blush.
Tools:
1. Eye shadow brush (generally included with eye shadow boxes); 2. Eyelash curler; 3. Blush brush (usually purchased separately).
Makeup steps:
Step 1:
Lotion: A common lotion will suffice, used after washing your face for skin care and moisturizing.
Step 2:
Foundation: If your skin is very good, you can just apply common moisturizing lotion and no foundation is needed.
1. How to buy foundation: There are two types of foundation: liquid foundation and pressed powder. You can choose either one. When buying, ask the counter lady to help you determine which one. Generally, choose two or three foundations that are close to your skin tone and try applying them on your cheeks to determine the color closest to your skin tone.
2. How to apply foundation: If it is liquid foundation, use your fingers to take a small amount, apply it on the forehead, bridge of the nose, cheeks, chin, etc., and then gently spread it evenly. If its powder, its the easiest, just apply it evenly with a puff.
Step Three:
Thrush: Choose the color of the eyebrow pencil that is closest to your own eyebrow color. For Asians, it is usually brown, brown or gray.
When applying it, try to make it as light as possible, from the brow to the tip of the brow. It is best to apply the brow one stroke at a time, from bottom to top, from the inside to the outside. The tip of the eyebrow should be carried out in one stroke to avoid modification. The most important thing about eyebrow thrush is experience, which requires more natural skills.
Step 4:
Eye shadow: The most common and simplest method: apply the same color in different dark and light colors gradually from the bottom to the top of the eyelids, from dark to light, to create a deep look. The eyes will appear to be at least 1/3 larger, brighter and brighter.
Step 5:
Eyelashes: Before brushing your eyelashes, use an eyelash curler to curl them and then brush them. The eyelashes should be curled 3 times (be careful not to pinch the eyelids when curling): the first time, clamp the root; the second time, gently bend the middle section upward; the third time, Clamp the tail end.
Step 6:
Lip: Generally, lip gloss is enough. The color of lip gloss should be consistent with the theme color of the clothing.
Step 7:
Blush: Choose a blush that suits your color, smile in the mirror, and apply blush on your cheekbones. When using, the amount of blush should be small and light; you can apply it several times until the effect is perfect.
