How to Apply Makeup

I’m going teach you how to do beautiful make up in five minutes. We’re going to start with a bit of foundation on. I’m going to teach you a technique with foundation. I like using a brush, but I’m just going to dab the foundation on with my finger. Then use your cosmetic wedge to just blend it out.

Most people don’t need foundation all the way to the corners of the face but apply it just on your nose, forehead and cheeks. Then blend the foundation down. Foundation is a great place to start because you get this blank canvas to work on. You want look pale when you’re finished with you foundation. Once you are complete with your foundation, go around to your eyes.

Bring your eyes forward with a little concealer. If you have dark circles, you just want to dab that into your dark circles and up into the corners of your eyes. This will brighten up the eyes altogether. Also, if you have any blemishes, now is the time to cover them. Just use your brush or finger, so go ahead and take care of that.

Next, we’re going to apply the eyeshadow. We’ll just keep it simple. Since we have five minutes, I’m going to use a nice shimmery gold peach color and sweep it with a big fluffy brush in the corner of the eye and out. Just keep it simple because we have only five minutes.

Then we’re going over to the pencil liner. I’m choosing a dark brown liner because it will bring out my natural skin tone. I apply the pencil line in short sweeping motions just along the lash line. Applying pencil liner should be as if you’re making dots and dashes in your lid but just connecting them.

Do the same thing at the bottom too. Remember, don’t pull your eyes and don’t draw a straight line in just one stroke with your pencil because you’re going to get a really harsh look.

And if you pull your eyes, they wear out. Your eyes are like elastic underwear, you can only do a little bit at a time.

We’re going to separate our lashes before applying the mascara. Then grab a mascara, we’re using a thickening and lengthening mascara, and just sweep it on the top of the lashes to get the tips.

Then bring it up, while moving it back and forth a little bit .This way you’ll keep them forming clumps. I’m just going touch it up a little bit in the bottom. And now we have a beautiful eye.

Next , we want to use a blush. I’m going to use a blush that really gives color without making it too much. I’m using a flat head brush because I love the control it gives me.

So tap your brush in the blush and shake it off a bit so you don’t get any on your clothes. And tap it in, start in the apple of the cheeks and blend it up and down, going from cheek to chin.

There, you now have beautiful complexion!

Lipstick is your choice. We’re just going to go with one color of lipstick. You can also go with a liner if you like. But since we’re keeping it under five minutes, we’re just going to go with one color.

We’re going with a bronzer lip color because it’s going to go beautifully with the color we put in our eyes. If you don’t have a lip brush to use, just use the tube and blend it out so it looks really natural and full on your lips

And that’s beautiful make-up in five minutes or less.
