WHAT MAKEUP GOES FIRST?

When it comes to applying makeup that lasts and appears stunning Applying primer should be the first step. Primers help prepare the skin, fill out wrinkles and fine lines, it makes a more clean palette for your makeup and also provide a more solid base layer, which in turn makes your makeup last for as long as possible. The primer you select should be light and free of oil.

Colorescience offers a wide range of primers--including mattifying and brightening primers that will prepare your face for a professional close-up. Colorescience mineral-based makeup is soft on the skin and is free of harmful chemicals.

STEPS TO APPLY MAKEUP

We've already mentioned that there's no one method you can apply makeup and there aren't steps for makeup that are written in stone. However, we're in a position to give you the steps used by us with the team at Colorescience. We've spent the time to ensure that the order in which you apply makeup is the best sense and could give you an amazing makeup look!

STEP 1: MOISTURIZER

Before you apply your makeup, take time to cleanse your skin with a premium moisturizer. Selecting the best moisturizer is an important part of the piece. Let's look at the various types of moisturizers that you can choose from, ranked from the lightest to the heaviest:

Face Mists Water-based treatments that could contain ingredients that boost your skin and also fragrances. The purpose of facial mists isn't to replenish moisture in your skin however they are useful for keeping an edgy appearance throughout the day. Just spray throughout the day whenever your skin is dry.

Serums are a light solution that's easily absorbed into the skin. There's a broad selection of serums that address specific areas of concern. Certain serums aid in moisturizing the skin to reduce wrinkles, while some contain ingredients that can improve the appearance of dull skin.

Lotions The most commonly used kind of moisturizer will benefit all skin types. Look for lotions identified by the term "non-comedogenic"; these products are specifically designed to prevent clogging the pores.

Creams are a good option if your skin requires extra assistance then it's time to purchase a cream moisturizer. It's a thick more hefty product that is able to help hydrate dry skin. Day creams can be applied to build a foundation for your makeup, however, night creams are made to provide your skin with an extra boost of moisture during your rest. Apply them before bed at night, and the next morning you'll see soft, soft skin.

Oils: If you require additional moisturizing, you should consider oils. Certain oils are ideal for those who have dry, sensitive, as well as normal, skin. But if you're prone to acne or have a need to use specially-formulated products for oily skin You should stay clear of oils that moisturize your skin.

The art of applying moisturizer properly is only the first step. Dollop a little amount on your fingertips. The dollop should be about the size of a quarter. Begin applying the moisturizing cream over your forehead. Start with the middle of your face and proceed outwards and up. Repeat the process beginning with your nose and applying the moisturizer on your cheeks. Make sure you've spread the moisturizer evenly over your skin , avoiding blocking your pores. After you've applied enough moisturizer gently rub it in with circles. Allow it some time to dry before proceeding to your next stage.

STEP 2: PRIMER

After your skin has been well-hydrated, prepare your face using primer. No matter if you're planning on applying the foundation lightly or a full-on application of makeup the primer is an essential first step. Applying primer to your makeup can help make your makeup last longer.

What is primer exactly? Consider it an essential base for makeup or foundation which will make it be more smooth and last longer. Primers are soft creams and gels which fill in the pores and lines of your skin, smoothing rough textures and providing the perfect backdrop to apply your makeup.

For applying your primer, start by squeezing a little onto your fingertips or onto your favorite brushes or sponges. Tips: A tiny amount goes a long way. Start with a dime-sized quantity of primer on the middle of your face. Then, gradually work it towards your forehead, cheeks, and your chin.

If you're planning to apply a primer to the delicate skin that surrounds the eyelids (and maintain that smokey eye looking professional all day) Make sure you choose a specific product for this particular area of your face. The eyelids are prone to accumulating grease all day long, creating the appearance of a "creased" look in eyeshadow. If your eyelids are oily, and you apply eyeshadow or eyeliner with no primer, your application might turn out to be uneven and patchy.

STEP 3: LIQUID FOUNDATION

When it is about the foundation, finding the right shade that suits your skin is top of the list. The correct colour of the foundation will make an enormous difference. How do you choose the right color? Test foundation colors against your jawline. If, after applying the foundation is gone without form of blending, you've discovered your perfect shade. This could take some trial and error and patience, but choosing the perfect shade is vital.

When you've chosen an item, think about the tools you'll need to use for applying it. Some women prefer using their fingers, whereas others prefer using beauty tools such as sponges and brushes. If you're seeking an easy-to-coverage look the fingers could prove to be the perfect application tool, but never apply makeup without washing your hands thoroughly and cleaning them after applying your makeup. You do not want to discover the marks of your makeup everywhere in your house. To achieve a fuller coverage look choose an applicator brush or a beauty blender.

Begin by putting your face in the middle of your face, and blend the foundation inwards. When you apply your foundation across your face, ensure that you smooth it into. Some women will stipple the damp sponge on their foundation to make sure that it is absorbed into the wrinkles and lines, which will give a smoother more even appearance. Certain kinds of makeup brushes are great for blending foundation into the skin.

STEP 4: CONCEALER

There are two major types of concealers: stick and compact.

Liquid concealers are great for those times when you need even coverage across a large part of your face. Liquid concealers are also great when you want to give your face an even, smooth finish, particularly around wrinkles that are around the mouth and around the eyes.

Concealer sticks and compacts are ideal for coverage that is more intense for smaller, more targeted areas of the face.

Picking the Color of Your Concealer

It's a good idea to buy two colors of concealer. One shade should be close to your skin's tone and is able to conceal pimples, dark spots, and other facial flaws. The other one should have a lighter shade than skin tone and is able to highlight specific areas of the face or add a sense of clarity to your makeup.

Note Women may prefer applying concealer prior to liquid foundation. The sequence of the two steps is dependent on your preference, as is trial and trial and. Test both methods and determine the best method for creating smooth and beautiful skin. Colorescience Finishing Touch Protocol product range includes both, as well as everything else you need to finish your appearance! If you are applying powder foundation on its own use concealer first.

Where to Apply Concealer

To minimize shadows of darker circles under the eyes and to create the appearance of a bright, glowing look apply a light concealer underneath the eyes using a moist makeup brush or sponge, and think about using an eye shadow or darker circle concealer.

If you're using a concealer in order to reduce the appearance of imperfections apply it directly on the problematic areas.

To enhance your face with liquid or cream concealer put small dots on those areas as follows:

Horizontally, over the center of your forehead.

In the middle of your nose

In front of your eyes

A curving arch is located just above the top of your cheeks just below your lower lip

Blend it gently into the skin around you Make certain to cover it with the foundation powder or setting powder.

 

STEP 5: FOUNDATION POWDER

Applying the foundation powder is an intimidating process. Apply If you apply it too lightly, you could be able to skip the step completely If you apply too much, you'll end up sporting the unwelcome "cake look". If you're looking for flawless skin you've probably heard a lot of tips concerning powder foundation. Follow these guidelines to create that flawless look.

With a big powder brush that is fluffy Begin by dusting a thin layer of powder on your face. The bristles should be pressed into the powder, and then move across your skin in long arched strokes.

If you have particular areas of your skin that require more coverage (the oily and red areas of your face tend to be located in the middle) You may need to apply a little more powder. To do this, dip your brush in the powder, and then gently apply it to the skin. This helps the powder to get into the pores and lines to give smoother skin.
