The correct steps for skin care and makeup, you must understand this knowledge!

The face is a person's facade and directly determines a person's image in the minds of others, so people will spend a lot of time and money to take care of their faces in order to do a good job of skin care and makeup. So how should these tasks be done well?

1. Moisturizer/cream or primer

Perfect makeup is inseparable from the preliminary foundation. The skin must be hydrated to prevent makeup from falling off, so basic moisturizing should be done before applying makeup every day. Moisturizer/cream and primer affect the overall fit and naturalness of makeup. If your primer is moisturizing enough, you can skip the moisturizer/cream step. Remember, if you want to apply sunscreen, this step should be placed after moisturizer/cream or primer and before foundation.

2. Foundation (liquid/cream)

After the base is ready, the first step in makeup is to apply liquid foundation. If you want a natural and light makeup effect, you can apply foundation directly with your hands or a professional foundation brush. You can use a makeup sponge to modify areas where you need to even out your skin tone, such as the sides of the nose and corners of the mouth. If you want perfect coverage, use a professional foundation brush to evenly apply foundation to the entire face. You can apply two more layers to ensure coverage if you have acne, acne marks or spots.

3. Concealer

After applying foundation, check which blemishes on your face need to be corrected, squeeze out a bean-sized amount, apply concealer several times, and partially cover them. Setting makeup with loose powder/loose powder is a very important step. It can make the foundation and concealer on the face last longer and not come off. It can also make the skin look more perfect and prepare for the subsequent makeup steps. Use a powder brush or powder puff to pick up a small amount of powder, and use light sweeping or pressing techniques to evenly cover your face. Be careful not to pick up too much powder at one time.

The step of setting makeup is very important. It can make the foundation and concealer on the face last longer and not come off. It can also make the skin look more perfect and prepare for the subsequent makeup steps. Use a powder brush or powder puff to pick up a small amount of powder, and use light sweeping or pressing techniques to evenly cover your face. Be careful not to pick up too much powder at one time.

5. Eye makeup

Steps for applying eye makeup:

Step 1: Eye shadow. You can first choose a light-colored eye shadow, dip it in the eye shadow, check the amount on your back, and adjust it to the ideal concentration. Use a flat coating technique to apply evenly on the upper eyelid, then choose a dark eyeshadow and start applying it from the root of the eyelashes. The eyeshadow is darkest near the root of the eyelashes and fades upwards. There should be no obvious dividing line between colors, and the colors should transition naturally to create a blending effect.

Step 2: Eyeliner. Draw eyeliner at the roots of the upper and lower eyelashes. Beginners can use the segmented drawing method, dividing the entire eyeliner into three sections and finally connecting them. If you are worried that your eyes will look dull, you can also draw the inner eyeliner on the upper inner eyelid, but be careful not to draw too much on the lower part. Then, use small movements to fill in the gaps at the base of the lashes. Finally, use a cotton swab to drag the eyeliner at the end of the eye and blend it naturally backwards so that the end does not look so sharp.

Step 3: Mascara. Before applying mascara, curl your eyelashes with an eyelash curler. For best results, curl your lashes at the root, middle, and tip. Hold the brush horizontally and apply carefully from the base of the lashes to the tip.

Step 4: Eyebrows. Use an eyebrow pencil or eyebrow brush to draw along the eyebrow outline little by little in an oblique direction to the tip of the eyebrow, and then use a brush to blend it naturally.

6. Lip makeup

Lip makeup steps:

Step 1: Lip balm. First, apply colorless lip balm to moisturize your lips. This step aims to replenish moisture to the lips, which is very important. Proper lip moisturizing makes it easier to apply makeup on the lips, but this has been neglected by ladies.

Step 2: Lip line (this step can be omitted). Find a lip liner of the same color to outline the lip shape and correct the color of the lip edges to pave the way for subsequent coloring and make it less likely to draw out the lip edges.

Step 3: Lipstick/lip gloss. The best way to apply lipstick is not to apply it directly on your lips, but to use a lip brush. If you want your lips to look plump, here is a little trick. When applying the makeup, try to apply it thicker on the middle of the lips and then slowly pull it towards the corners of the mouth. Note that the makeup on the corners of the mouth must be shallow and narrow, so that the lips will look very rosy and cute. People who don’t like to wear lipstick can just use lip gloss.

7. Blush

Use a large powder brush to pick up a small amount of blush powder and sweep it from the cheekbones towards the temples. Remember not to get too much powder, otherwise it will look like a monkey butt. If contouring is needed, apply blush first, then shadows, and finally highlights.

Many female friends who like to wear makeup often complain that it is difficult to put on makeup, and that powder often floats, or that makeup is easily removed, which looks unnatural and is very embarrassing. In fact, the reason for this situation is the wrong method. Not only does skin care have a sequence, but makeup also has to follow a sequence to make the makeup more natural and beautiful.
