COMPLETE STEPS ON HOW TO MAKE-UP DRY SKIN

Step 5;

Use Creamy Blush and Eye Shadow
Powdery makeup will cake up on dry skin and draw attention to lines, creases and wrinkles. Go with creamy cheek and eye colors to harmonise with your foundation. As with applying foundation,resist the temptation to use your fingertips to put on blush and eye shadow. Go with a blush brush and eye shadow brushes to smooth on creams without roughing up your delicate skin

Step 6;

Finish and Set
Here’s one time you may need to use powder: Finish and set makeup by lightly dusting loose powder with a large, fat cosmetic brush before you put on mascara and brow liner. Not too heavily, of course, but just enough to keep your foundation, blush and eye shadow in plac1407769634906_757282e.

HOW TO APPLY MAKE-UP TO A DRY SKIN

Am going to be doing a review on how to apply make-up on a dry skin…. going with 3steps first

First step;

Moisturizing your skin is the No. 1 key to getting makeup to do what you want it to do. Using facial products made for dry skin, cleanse your face, then moisturize three to five minutes prior to applying cosmetic foundation.

Second step;

slather on a layer of makeup primer, this adds a protective barrier while eliminating dry patches and allowing the makeup you’ll apply next to stay put nicely.

Third step;

Creamy foundations and blemish concealers work best for dry skin.
With the proper tools, foundation from a jar, stick or compact will glide onto your skin without a hitch. Be sure to use a brush rather than your fingertips to apply concealer, then foundation….

1406438420324_732879

Basically, When you contour, all you’re doing is accentuating your natural features. There are two main techniques: lowlighting and highlighting.

What is highlighting and lowlighting :?

Lowlighting refers to using a darker color wherever there’s an area of the face or feature you want to recede. Use a product to shades darker than your own skin and make sure your product is matte, never frosted or shimmery

Highlighting….this you do on areas you want to emphasize or bring forward. For highlight, you can use either matte or frosted/shimmery color, whichever you prefer.

TECHNIQUES 1; Contouring With Concealer

Use a cream concealer that is two shades darker than your skin tone and one shade lighter dan your skin tone…If u ve uneven skin u mite want to get a third one that’s your exact shade

I always advice foundation application b4 contouring cos the concealer needs sumfin to stick to for proper blending.

1. Apply the concealer that’s your exact shade to blemishes or dark spots first

2. Apply foundation and blend properly
3. Using a flat foundation brush apply the concealer that’s a shade lighter to under the eye areas to top of the cheekbones. Make sure to extend it the outer corners
4. Apply the same concealer to forehead, cupid bow, and before jaw area(use pic for reference)

5. Apply d same concealer to the bridge of nose and chin

Note: What I do is blend out immediately…why??? If d concealer starts to dry before u blend or set with powder…it starts to make d areas crease…especially under eye areas

6. Nw taking d concealer 2 shades darker..make a fish face(very important) and put in the hollows of your cheeks
