Don’t have the luxury of time to dress your face? You can certainly do better than simply slap on lipstick and kaajal. It is possible to look your best with minimum time and tools at your disposal. It helps to keep a small make up kit in your bag with essentials like loose powder, highlighter, blush and such. As for racing ahead of time for a quick fix, here’s how:
What You Need
sunscreen,
concealer
foundation
eyeliner
eyeshadow
primer and eyeshadow
bronzer and/or blush (or neither!)
mascara and an eyelash
lipstick, gloss or balmStart with sunscreen A dewy, fresh complexion is sexy and youthful. Starting with a clean face,
apply sunscreen to face and neck . Rain or shine, you should get in the habit of applying sunscreen every day. If you have oily skin, rinse face with warm water and pat dry before applying sunscreen.Apply concealer Dot concealer with your ring finger to the spots that need it most (under the eye, along the nose, on the chin). Blend in by patting in, never rubbing, the concealer .
Foundation is next Apply a tinted moisturizer or foundation to your face making sure to blend along the jawline so you don't have a tell-tale line. Few people need to apply foundation all over the face . Simply apply where you have uneven skin tone (usually along your nose and on the skin). In wintertime, if your cheeks tend to get ruddy, apply there as well.
For more sheer, natural coverage, consider a tinted moisturizer, which goes on much lighter than typical foundations. .Blush, bronzer Apply blush on the apples of your cheeks . If you want to appear sun-kissed, apply a bronzer as well . Apply eyeliner Now that your face is set, it's time to make up your eyes. Apply eyeliner to lids. There are many different way to apply eyeliner. You can go for the basic eye, a smokey eye, a cat eye and much more.
For a basic eye, simply apply liner to the upper lashes and the lower lashes, smudging along the lower so it doesn't look drawn on. Apply concealerIf you wear eyeshadow, be sure to set the eye first with an eyeshadow primer, otherwise the shadow will melt into your eyelids.Next is the eyeshadow Just as there are many ways to apply eyeliner, there are many eyeshadow looks you can experiment with. For a basic eye, simply apply a base shade on the lid of the eye.
Apply a darker contouring shadow in the crease. Make sure to blend it all in well. Curl your lashes with an eyelash curler. You can blast your curler for 3 seconds with a hairdryer to make the curl hold better, just be sure to test the metal to ensure it's not too hot first.Moving on to mascara Apply mascara by wiggling the wand from the roots of your lashes on through to the ends.
Leave your lips for last Once you have your face made up you can see exactly what type of lip treatment you need. You can either fill in lips with lip liner and apply lip balm or gloss over it, or you can line lips first then apply lipstick. Some women opt for just gloss or balm.
