3. Preparing Your Skin for⁣ Make-up

Start with a clean slate. Make sure to cleanse your skin to remove all the dirt and oil from your face. You can gently exfoliate your skin to make a smoother surface. This will help minimize dry patches so makeup can glide on smoothly. Make sure to hydrate with a good moisturizer suited to your skin type for a comfortable base.

Here are some great options for different skin types:

Reinigingsmiddel

• Oily/Combination: Skin Script Raspberry Refining Cleanser 6.5 Oz
• Dry: Skin Beauty Chamomile Cleansing Milk | Reinigingsmiddel & Makeup Remover
• Sensitive: Rhonda Allison Herbal AHA Cleanser – 4 Oz (R04) 

Volgende, apply a primer to help your makeup application. A primer is a barrier that extends makeup wear, but also blurs skin imperfections. Choose one that targets your skin concerns – mattifying for oily skin or illuminating for dry skin. Let your moisturizer and primer sit for a few minutes before applying foundation. This prep will give you the perfect base for your makeup to shine! ✨

Primer

• Oily/Combination: Youngblood Complexion Correcting Primer
• Dry: Skin Beauty Lemon Water Gel Cream | Hyaluronic Acid Treatment
• Sensitive: Bare Escentuals BareMinerals Prime Time BB Primer Cream SPF 30 – 1 Oz

4. Stap⁤ 1: ​Foundation Application

Let’s start with foundation application. Start by choosing the right formula for your skin type and coverage. Overwegen:

• Skin Type: liquid for dry skin and powder for oily skin. Just keep “opposites attract” in mind.
• Coverage Level: This is solely up to you. Decide if you want sheer, medium or full coverage!
• Finish: Dewy or matte to suit your overall look.

Use your preferred tool: a brush, sponge or your fingers. Something to keep in mind is to apply the foundation in small amounts. Make sure to blend towards the hairline and jawline for a seamless finish. If you need extra coverage build it up gradually for a natural look. You’re on your way to a great base! 🌟

5. Stap 2: Concealer⁤ and Highlighting

When your foundation is set the next step is to brighten and balance your complexion with concealer and highlighter. Begin by using concealer on areas that need extra coverage—under your eyes, blemishes or redness. Use a small fluffy brush or your ring finger to tap the product in gently—this helps avoid rubbing. Choose a shade that’s one or two tones lighter than your foundation for a natural brightening effect.

Now let’s add some glow. Apply on these areas for definition:

• Cheekbones
• Bridge of the nose
• Centre of the forehead
• Cupid’s bow

Use a fan brush or your fingers to blend the highlighter for a natural look. Cream or liquid gives a dewy finish, powder gives a more defined glow. Both options are great and don’t overpower your makeup! ✨

6. Stap 3: ‌Eyeshadow Basics

Ready to slay the eyeshadow game? Begin met choosing the right brushes: fluffy ones for blending and flat ones for packing on color. Don’t forget to experiment with Poeder, crème, and liquid shadows—each has its own flair! We recommend starting with a powder eyeshadow first. As you get more comfortable try out some cream and liquid eyeshadows.

Volgende, pick a color palette that vibes with your skin tone. You’ll want to always have neutrals on hand but go bold when you want to make a statement! Layering is where the magic happens:

1. Apply a base color
2. Deepen the crease
3. Highlight the brow bone and inner corners.

With a little practice, you’ll blend like a pro and create eye looks that truly shine! 👁️✨

7. Stap 4: ⁢Eyeliner and Mascara Application

Eyeliner and mascara are your BFFs if you’re looking for definition! Start with an eyeliner. You can choose between liquid, gel or pencil.

• Liquid Eyeliner
• Gel Eyeliner
• Pencil Eyeliner

For a classic look go for black or dark brown to define your lash line. Here are some quick tips:

1. Start at the inner corner and draw along your lash line.
2. For a wing, extend the liner outward with a small flick that follows your eye’s curve.
3. Build up the color for a bolder look!

Now let’s get those lashes going with mascara! A few swipes of volumizing mascara will do the trick. To avoid clumps, Volg deze stappen:

• Wiggle the wand at the base of your lashes and sweep it up.
• For drama apply a second coat while the first is still a bit wet.
• Pro tip: Use a clean spoolie to separate any clumps.

8. Stap 5: Blush and ⁢Bronzer Application

Blush and bronzer are essentials for illuminating your face! Start with the bronzer and apply where the sun would hit your face. Bronzer is like faux-sunshine in a bottle! Focus on these areas:

• Forehead: Dust lightly along the hairline.
• Cheekbones: Sweep just below the apples of your cheeks.
• Jawline: Define by applying underneath the jaw.

Next is time for blush! The right shade will brighten your complexion instantly. Pro-tip, smile gently to find the apples of your cheeks and apply lightly with a soft motion for a natural finish. Blend the bronzer and blush together for a seamless transition. It can be easy to overdo blush, so be careful!

Now you’re done! ✨

9. Stap 6: Lip Makeup Essentials

Here’s how to get the perfect lip look! For a smooth surface, you can exfoliate your lips before applying lipstick. I always like to begin with a nourishing lip balm to keep my lips hydrated and flake free. This step is important for lip makeup.

Choosing the right color is key – We have a whole blog post about this here! These are the must-haves for your lip collection:

• Lippenstift: Choose a shade that suits your skin tone, matte, satin or glossy finish.
• Lip Liner: Defines your lips, prevents feathering and extends wear.
• Gloss: Adds dimension and shine for a fuller look.
• Liquid Lipstick: For long lasting color!

Don’t be afraid to be bold! 💋✨

10.⁤ Complete the Look: Setting⁤ Your Makeup

Once you’re done with your makeup it’s time to set it! Gebruik een setting spray to lock it in and add a refreshing finish. Choose a matte spray for oily skin or a dewy one for dry or combination skin and hold it about 8-10 inches away.

This is not essential but comes in handy for long days.

With these steps your makeup will last all day! ✨💖
