Question

how do you put on your make-up? in what order do you slap that stuff on your face? is there a correct way?

Answer 1

I definitely think there is a correct way to put on makeup, but it also depends on the effect you are going for, your skin type and your age. The general order I would do (for natural looking makeup) is -



Moisturizer



Concealer (under eye, any blemishes or dark spots, side of your nose)



Light foundation or tinted moisturizer (to even out your skin tone - Laura Mercier has a great tinted moisturizer - if you are 16-25 you probably don't need this step)



Translucent Powder (something with no color to set your makeup - if you have dry skin forget the powder)



Blush (something that matches the color of your skin after you've worked out, or been in the cold - experimenting with creme blushes is great too and helps give a more natural glow - dab a little on the apples of your cheeks only)



Eye Shadow



Eye Liner (I like to use a brush and black powder - I wet the brush and dab a little under the top lashes where they meet your eyelid ridge - try not to get it on the ridge - it takes some practice, but looks great)



Curl Lashes (Optional)



Mascara



Lip liner (Optional)



Lip gloss or Lipstick



If you want to vamp it up a bit for going out you can do it in the eyes and/or lips - more liner, smokey eyes, etc. Trying to recreate looks you see in magazines is fun too.



Good Luck!

Answer 2

firstly you should mousturise(this is a good base for foundation)then apply a suitable foundation for your skin type,then apply concealer(always apply concealer AFTER foundation as it works better)thn apply your eye makeup,eye shadow first then eyeliner then mascara.now your lips,apply lipliner(lipliner stops your lips from "bleeding"it also makes your lips look much nicer)then fill in with lipstick,you could use a clear gloss on top ,but most lipsticks are ok without.

Answer 3

-blemish concealer

-moisturizer

-eye shadow

-eye liner

-mascara

-undereye concealer



The reason I put undereye concealer on last is b/c I read in a mag that it's better to put that onlast, since sometimes eyeshadow leaves specks under your eyes, or you might mess up your eye makeup. So then you can wipe it away, then put on concealer!
