The whole point of a tutorial it to give instruction, and while pictures are helpful there's a lot they don't say. So here's what I got! I'm an aesthetician and I love, love, love, make up, so when I see woman struggling in skill, I jump at the opportunity to help. Make up is an art that should be shared, it's really not hard once you know the basics. It's fun and a great way to express yourself daily. So here's the base of it all, foundation and concealer! :)
Step 1. Face prep: Make sure your face is clean. Put on your SPF and moisturizer, If you have a long day ahead you, can choose to use a primer but I just use moisturizer.
2. Foundation: Dab it under your eyes, a little on your nose, chin and forehead.
3. Spread: With a foundation brush, gently spread and blend the foundation make your strokes in a back and forth, almost circular motion. It's not meant to be put all over so don't worry if it doesn't reach all the edges of your face.
4/5. Concealer: Using a concealer brush, dab some concealer under the eyes out to the temple then down to the nostrils and up to the eyes again, like a triangle. Maybe a little on the flat of your chin and anything else that needs a little covering.
6. Spread: You can do it with the brush, but I like the BeautyBlender sponge. Don't drag it but gently dab. Blend over and around where you put concealer till there's no visible lines in difference.
7. Powder: With a powder brush, not the nasty sponge! Brush on the powder in a circular motion all over, don't forget to get up at the hair line.
8. Very Important: Make sure to get your jaw line and neck, blend it all together. Especially for special occasions, otherwise your face looks like its floating in pictures.
9. Check it out: What was once a blotchy canvas should now be a smooth backdrop for everything else.
I hope this is helpful to you! Enjoy!
