10 Steps to make youself pretty with make up

Before you begin for a beautiful makeup:

Always apply makeup to clean skin.

Ensure all the appropriate makeup tools and products you need are ready.

Apply makeup in a well-lighted area.

Use a magnifying mirror to check your blending and overall smoothness to become a beautiful woman.

Step 1: Contact Lens

If you think your eyes is not nice and not enough big. You can choose a nice & suit contact lens type that matches your beautiful eyes become bigger but if you think your eyes is nice, you may not need to use contact lens.

Step 2: Foundation

Choose a foundation for your skin type that matches your underlying beautiful skin tone then transfer the foundation in dots and dabs all over the face and the eyelids. Blend the foundation down and out over the face. Dab or buff away any excess product. Remember do not apply foundation on the neck or under the chin.

Step 3: Concealer

Use a concealer that is one or two shades lighter than your foundation. Apply it in a small arc around the inside corner of your beautiful eye. Blend the concealer out evenly by dabbing and buffing. Avoid pulling or tugging the skin under the eye. Be careful not to spread the concealer onto areas where you don’t want it.

Step 4: Powder

Dust a light layer of powder over your entire beautiful face and eyelids. Powder is great for touch-ups as the day goes by to dust down excessive shine. Powder with sunscreen must be applied liberally so a thorough application is necessary for a beautiful woman adequate protection. It is best to use a powder with sunscreen in combination with a foundation and/or moisturizer that also offers sun protection.

Step 5: Eyeshadow

Typically, the lightest color is applied to the entire beautiful eyelid and to the edge of the eyebrow. General rule:

The larger the eyelid area is compared with the under-brow area, the darker the eyelid color can be;

The smaller the eyelid area is compared with the under-brow area, the lighter the eyelid color can be. Remember, lighter colors bring things forward and highlight while dark colors recede and add depth and shading to become a beautiful woman.

Step 6: Eyeliner

As a general rule, the larger of your beautiful eyelid area, the thicker and softer the eyeliner should be. The smaller your beautiful eyelid area, the thinner and more intense the liner should be. Always draw using one fluid stroke from the inner to outer corner, following the curve of the eyelid. Make sure that the two lines meet at the back corner of your beautiful eyes.

Step 7: Eyebrow Shaping

Use a color that closely matches the color of your beautiful brows rather than your beautiful hair color or a color you think would look better than what already exists. Apply powder brow color using a wedge brush, working in the direction the hair grows. Use a light touch, with short, quick motions, and avoid the temptation to exaggerate the shape of your beautiful brow by arching it severely or extending the brow into the temple area.

Step 8: Mascara

Apply mascara to the upper lashes using long, sweeping strokes. Be sure to begin as close to the lash root as possible and brush up and out. For the lower lashes, hold the wand perpendicular to the eye, parallel to the lashes and brush using the tip of the wand. Use an old, cleaned-up mascara wand to remove any clumping that occurs. Lash curlers should be used before applying mascara for becoming a beautiful woman.

Step 9: Blush

Using a blush brush, apply blush along the full line of the cheek-bone, brushing down and back toward the ear. Always knock the excess powder out of the brush to avoid applying too much blush. Use your sponge to soften any hard edges. Do not apply blush to the temple area, chin, nose, or forehead as this tends to make beautiful skin look uneven and ruddy for becoming a beautiful woman.

Step 10: Lipstick & Lip Liner

Use a lip pencil to draw a definitive edge around the mouth to follow when applying lipstick, and a lip brush to control your application. A standard tube of lipstick makes too wide a mark for some women’s beautiful lips and too narrow a mark for others. If your lips are small, it is best to use a lip brush; if your lips are large, the only reason to use a lip brush is to improve your accuracy, especially with deeper shades such as red.
