Makeup Tips for Beginners

 

Makeup can be intimidating for beginners, but with a few simple tips and tricks, anyone can achieve a flawless look. Here are some makeup tips for beginners:

1. Start with a clean canvas

Before applying any makeup, make sure your face is clean and moisturized. This will ensure that your makeup goes on smoothly and lasts longer. I would recommend a micellar water such as Bioderma Sensibio H20 which is great for those with sensitive skin. For moisturizer my go to favorite is Embryolisse Lait-Creme Concentre which is a multi-task moisturizing face cream for all skin types. A makeup artist go to it works as a face cream, makeup primer and face mask.

2. Invest in good quality brushes

Investing in good quality makeup brushes can make a huge difference in the application of your makeup. Choose brushes that are soft and fluffy for blending, and firm for precision application. I have tried and tested many brushes. I am currently using Jessup 27 pcs Professional Makeup Brush Set in my artistry. Jessup Makeup Brushes have so many different styles and price points.

3. Find your perfect foundation shade

One of the most important steps in achieving a flawless makeup look is finding the perfect foundation shade for your skin tone. Test different shades on your jawline and make sure to check the color in natural light to avoid any awkward color mismatches.

4. Don't be afraid to experiment with different looks

Makeup is all about having fun and expressing yourself, so don't be afraid to experiment with different looks . Whether it's a bold lip, a smokey eye, or a bright pop of color, trying out new makeup looks can help you discover what works best for you.

5. Less is more

When it comes to makeup, less is often more. Start with a light coverage foundation or tinted moisturizer, and build up from there if needed. Remember, you can always add more, but it's harder to take away once it's applied.

6. Practice makes perfect

Like anything else, practice makes perfect when it comes to makeup application. Don't get discouraged if your first attempts don't turn out the way you want them to. Keep practicing and experimenting until you find the techniques and products that work best for you.

7. Use primer to make your makeup last

Applying a primer before your makeup can help it last longer throughout the day. It can also help smooth out any uneven texture on your skin and create a smooth base for your makeup to adhere to.

8. Don't forget to blend

Blending is key to achieving a natural and flawless makeup look. Make sure to blend your foundation, eye shadow, and blush to avoid any harsh lines or uneven application.

9. Take care of your skin

While makeup can enhance your natural beauty, it's important to take care of your skin as well. Make sure to remove your makeup before going to bed, and follow a skincare routine that works for your skin type. This will not only help your makeup look better, but it will also keep your skin healthy and glowing.

10. Have fun!

Ultimately, makeup should be fun and a form of self-expression. Don't take it too seriously and enjoy the process of experimenting and trying out new looks. Remember, there are no rules when it comes to makeup, so have fun and let your creativity shine!
