Heading for a party? Need some tips on Party Make-up? Our makeup expert Biman is here to guide you through the process.
In social programs or parties, everyone wants to look different and more beautiful than others. And to achieve these several things are tried. But if you have a proper idea about makeup, you can do it like a professional. Let’s have an idea about some essential makeup tips.
Cleaning
At first clean your face for a perfect make-up. Use a good face wash or cleanser to get rid of all the dirt from your skin.
Moisturizing
Apply some light moisturizing cream or lotion on your forehead, nose and around your eyes and massage gently. Wait for 15 to 20 minutes till it gets absorbed.
Foundation
Perfect makeup depends on a good base. And for a perfect base, you have to select a proper foundation according to your skin tone. You should always try a foundation of one or two shades lighter than your complexion. Your skin will look brighter. You need a darker one for shading. Your makeup will be perfectly blended if you apply an oil-free foundation. For oily skin, use a powder foundation.
Concealer
A Concealer is used to hide facial marks, patches and dark circles. Use a concealer half shade lighter than your foundation. To hide blemishes and dark spots use a concealer one shade lighter than your foundation, but it should be a black undertone one. For a dark circle, you can use a green or yellow-toned concealer. But if you can manage to cover up dark spots and dark circles with the foundation, you need not apply a concealer.
Face powder
To apply face powder, use a large-sized makeup brush. Also, use a puff or a sponge to set beige.
Eye make up
Before any kind of application of eye makeup, apply an eye primer all over your eyelids. Then use an eye shadow which will be a combination of two or three different colors according to your dress. Brown eye shadow can be an option for making the eyes look attractive.
Eyelashes
Use good quality eyelashes of your choice to highlight your eyes. There are different types of eyelashes available in the market.
Eyeliner
For eyeliner, one can select gel, liquid or pencil eyeliner. You can use a kajal too instead of using eyeliner. For a dramatic look, apply eyeliner in thick curves and repeat it after letting it dry.
Mascara
For attractive eyes, mascara plays an important role. Apply mascara and repeat it after some time. Look upwards while applying mascara on your upper eyelash.
