- Make sure your hands and nails are clean before touching your face or any products
- Cleanse face (understand your skin type before you buy a cleanser. If you have sensitive skin, avoid anything with sulfuric acid. Anything with honey or avocado listed as an ingredient is good)
- Use a dime size amount of moisturizer. Every skin type (even oily) will benefit from moisturizer. Again, know your skin type.
- Dab a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand. (when you buy foundation, have one of the makeup consultants match your skin tone with the foundation) Warm it up to body temp with your finger
- With your fingertip, add some corn starch. (this will help set in your foundation and keep things like oil and sweat from melting it away)
- pick it up with a brush and apply everywhere
- Carry it down your neck to avoid making a makeup line
- use a blemish stick for extra coverage on a blemish
- add a small amount of foundation to your lips. (I don't use this one all the time, just when I plan on wearing lipstick)
- Set in with a pressed powder
- Using a brush, apply (a light) bronzer to places where the sun will naturally touch your face. (The bone above your temples, cheekbones, chin, t-zone)
- Use a narrow brush to apply blush. Smile, and apply to the apples of your cheeks.
- blend with fingertips to make it less harsh
- Suck in your cheeks, and apply blush to your cheekbones (this area should have the most product)
Under eyes-
- Use a small brush to apply corrector starting from the inner corner of your eye, and carrying it out and down to where there is darkness
- gently blend by pressing fingertips
- apply conceal under your eye, starting at the innermost corner
- cover the entire area, getting right under your lashes
- set in place with powder (using an eye shadow brush)
- Take your tooth brush, put a small amount of petroleum jelly (i.e.- Vaseline) to the brush and gently brush it onto your lips for a minute
- apply chap stick as needed
- After you choose your color, apply with a brush, or straight from the tube
- began at one corner and carry it over, keeping the layer even
- keep it with in the natural lines of your lips
- make sure you get into the corners of your lips
- pick a lip pencil that matches your lipstick
- beginning lining on the top lip and extend down to the other corner
- carry it down to the bottom lip
- fill in any missed areas and blend
