- Prep the skin: always ensure you have a clean base for cleansing and moisturizing the skin
- Prime before foundation: Use a primer to create a soft, smooth effect on the skin. Always ensure you use the correct primer for your skin type!
- Select the correct foundation colour: do a stripe test to ensure you select the correct under tone and colour to match your skin.
- Blend blend blend! blend your foundation evenly all over ensuring you blend correctly make sure you have no patches or an uneven base and it will be flawless all over
- Conceal: Use concealer on the eye lid, under the eye and on any imperfections! Tip: use a slightly lighter shade to highlight and brighten the eyes, don’t use a light shade over spots as this will make them more prominent 😮
- Set that base honey!! Use a translucent powder to set the base this will prevent the foundation from going blotchy and cakey.
- Brows: depending on how you like your brows fill them in to create more definition on the face and lift the eye area!
- Eyes: Apply your eye-shadow and create a nice soft smokey eye for added definition on the eyes, use mascara to lift and voluminze the lashes. Remember: what goes up must come down 🙂
- Blusher/ bronzer/ highlight: Add blusher for a healthy glow, bronzer for colour and to shape the face and highlight to make those cheekbones pop!!
- Lips: use a lip liner to shape the lips and lipstick to add some colour to those fab lips! Tip: use a slightly darker tone for your lip liner to make your lips pop!!
