The Perfect Makeup Guide For Beginners

When it comes to makeup it’s easy to get lost in those numerous makeup tutorials and various guides with tips and tricks for all occasions. Most of them are prepared by women who have been doing makeup for years, making it hard for beginners to tap into the magic world of makeup artistry. Well, fear not, my dear aspiring makeup artist because I have a simple, elegant, and easy solution for you – the beginner’s guide to makeup! It has all the necessary essentials that will help you create an easy, yet flawless look.

Step 1. Moisturize

Many makeup artists forget to mention this most important first step that comes before anything else. Prepping your skin is essential to creating a gorgeous look. You can use mists, serums, lotions, and even special oils to do the job. Spread the moisturizer over your skin evenly, let it dry a few minutes, and then follow the next step.

Step 2. Primer

Whether you’re prepping your skin for a full-on makeup or just want something light and easy on the eye, primer is the one thing that will help your makeup last longer. This is the base of the foundation (which comes next) and the very trick that will help your eyeshadow look flawless.

Step 3. Liquid Foundation

No makeup guide for beginners is complete without the liquid foundation. It’s easy to apply (you can use fingers, sponges, or brushes) and it helps create a smooth texture for your flawless makeup look. The main trick is to pick the right shade, so don’t be afraid to spend as much time as you need in the store to test different colours!

Step 4. Concealer

I could say that this step is optional for ladies with great complexion, but for the rest of us who have blemishes and under-eye circles concealer is a real saviour. Make sure that you blend it well into your foundation. Remember that the right shade really matters here, too!
