If the choice fell on a foundation, this article will be useful to you. Thanks to the face make-up master class, it will not be difficult to make your own make-up, and the result will pleasantly surprise you.

Basic rules for perfect makeup with foundation (what you should consider)

So that the foundation does not look like an alien unnatural mask on the face, it must be selected not only for the skin tone. You should also focus on those colors that nature has given - in the eyes, in the color of the hair, in the manifestation of a natural blush.

Face makeup using foundation is the basis of a beautiful look

Choosing a shade of foundation to match your eye color

To determine the shade of foundation, you need to pay attention to the color of the eyes. It should be remembered that the shade of the foundation should not be radically different from the color of the eyes. The darker the eyes, the darker the tonal tone should be.

So, for example, girls with brown eyes need to use tonal foundations of peach tones. For blue eyes, an ivory shade is more suitable.

Tint of foundation to match hair color

The color of the curls also affects the choice of foundation.

If you have dark hair, use lighter colors.
Dark brown hair requires the use of a peach tone.

Burning brunettes use tan tints.
Light bases, such as ivory, go well with dark blond hair.

Face shapes and makeup

Each type of face requires an individual selection of decorative cosmetics. Makeup is aimed at bringing the shape of the face closer to the ideal. This is considered an oval face shape. Therefore, when toning, you need to try to bring the outlines of your face closer to this geometric figure.

To perform a make-up, it is enough, guided by step-by-step photos, to choose tonal creams, depending on the characteristics of the skin.

Facial correction requires the selection of two shades of cream - light and dark

A dark shade will help hide some flaws, and a light shade focuses on itself and maximizes those areas of the face that will create the necessary highlights. Thus, some sculpting of facial features is performed, accents are placed.

Skin type

When choosing a product, you should pay attention to its components.

Oily skin needs vitamins A and B.
For dry skin, you need to choose a cream with moisturizing ingredients.
Mature skin needs toning products with a lifting effect.
A liquid foundation is ideal for young skin.

Necessary tools and tools

Consider the rules for choosing a foundation, foundation and necessary tools

Tone cream. Which one is better to choose

Foundation creams differ in several parameters: density, conformity to skin type, color scheme, additional effects. Let's consider the main ones.

Density:

light coating, slightly evening out the tone;
medium density - correct color deviations, creating uniformity;
high density - create a thick layer, often used by professionals;

The color scheme determines the final make-up result, maybe:

pink;
beige;
yellowish;

Foundation brushes

No face makeup can do without brushes. A step-by-step photo with foundation often demonstrates their use. Brushes can be of two types: natural and synthetic.

Natural ones are used for dry structures (powder, blush). Synthetic ones are more suitable for creamy ones. They do not absorb funds, reducing their consumption. They are often chosen by stylists for applying foundation in an even layer.

Powder, blush, sponge, other

For makeup, you usually need the following:

the foundation;
concealer;
tonal means;
powder;
pencils (for eyes, eyebrows);
shadows;
ink;
blush, lipstick.

In this case, it is important to observe the following rules:

The tonal foundation is applied with a sponge, fingers, and a short brush.
Loose powder has a special brush.
Use a flat brush to apply blush.
To blend the shadows, use short brushes or applicators.
A thin brush is required to apply lipstick.

Base makeup. How to choose

Makeup bases come in several varieties:

for face;
under the shade (prevent rolling);
for lips.

All varieties have a different target orientation, therefore, they do not have interchangeability.

It is most correct to choose a base, focusing on the properties of your own skin - it is dry, sensitive to irritation, or has a high oily content. Since it is the base that is the first layer that holds all the makeup on itself, and is applied under the foundation, it must meet the requirements of the skin - to keep it moist, or dry it out.

It is especially important not to miss when choosing a base for sensitive skin - irritation is dangerous not only by causing discomfort, but also by more severe consequences in the form of an allergic reaction, inflammation, and acne.

Important to remember! When using a sponge, it must be rinsed every 3 days to prevent the growth of bacteria.

Step-by-step instructions for makeup with foundation

Before proceeding to leveling the tone of the face, it is necessary to properly prepare the skin.

Preparing the face for applying foundation

The advantage of a foundation on the face is that it is easy to apply and moisturizes the skin as you apply makeup step by step. Numerous photographs show a positive result. Half the success of makeup application depends on proper preparation.

A clean face is a guarantee of an even tone

It is necessary to cleanse the skin, tone it. After applying the moisturizer, it should take at least 15 minutes. After this time, you can apply the foundation. If during this time the base cream is not absorbed, its excess is removed with a sponge or napkin.

Certain types of leather require special attention during preparation:

oily skin must be cleaned with a special gel or foam;
skin with acne requires the use of a special deep cleansing mask, it is good if it contains medicinal herbs;
on flaky skin, you should apply the usual day cream (but not for children), after 15 minutes you can start applying the base.

Step 1. Applying concealers

After cleansing the face, in the presence of certain skin problems (inflammation, oily skin, scars, moles, pimples), it is necessary to use one of the concealers, which are presented in different forms and composition.

Let's consider the main ones:

Toning gel

Its use ensures that freckles, acne marks and enlarged pores are hidden. Gives a matting effect. Easy to apply and spread over the face with a sponge;

Masking cream

Helps to hide fine wrinkles, blemishes on the face, evens out skin color. A small amount of it should be spread with a sponge, gently shaded.

Masking pencil

Has a denser texture, successfully masks inflamed elements. Convenient for its use in certain areas. Its highly pigmented shank requires diligent blending. The contours of the pencil should be hammered into the skin with the pads of your fingers.

Concealer - shades

Concealer

It is represented by a free-flowing substance of various shades. A dry concealer will mask irregularities, and mixed with a cream will visually remove small rashes and small wen. It should be applied with a wide powder brush. Do not apply liquid foundation over powdered concealer.

Color correctors

Designated as a separate group of corrective agents, where orange concealer hides bruises under the eyes, lilac - removes yellowness, green conceals pink acne marks and allergic rashes. To apply them to the problem area, 2-3 drops are enough.

Step 2. Correction of the face shape (T-zone, chin and neck)

The oval plays an important role in modeling the face. Correct facial makeup is used to correct it. The step-by-step photo reminds: the foundation must be used correctly and have at least two tones. Light use in the center of the face, and darker on areas that need to be hidden.

If the toner matches the skin color, toning the neck is not necessary, but it is necessary to powder it along with the T-shaped zone (forehead, nose and chin area).

Facial correction directly depends on its shape. With the help of dark and light tones, you can visually reduce or enlarge certain parts.

The face shape is represented by the following types:

The shape is in the form of a regular oval. Often does not need modeling, in extreme cases, requires a minimum of effort.
Round face. It is characterized by the same length and width dimensions. The face itself has a round oval. For correction, it is necessary to apply a darker tone of the product to the submandibular region, as well as to the lateral parts of the face.
Square. It has a massive lower jaw, the same proportions in relation to the vertical and horizontal dimensions. To lighten the lower facial part, a darker shade should be distributed on the lower jaw and in the corners of the forehead.

Heart-like face. Has a wide forehead and a narrow chin. To balance the lower and upper parts, the dark tone should be applied to the ridges and corners of the forehead, the upper part of the cheekbones and the chin.
Trapezoidal face. Against the background of the heavy lower jaw, there is a narrowed upper part. For a visual decrease in the lower part, the sides of the jaw should be darkened obliquely from the beginning of the cheekbone.
Rectangle. The prevalence of vertical dimensions. The presence of a high forehead and a long chin. Correct face makeup will help to solve this problem. For a step-by-step application (as in the photos below) of light tones with a foundation, it is necessary to pay attention to the lateral surfaces to visually expand the face. In dark tones, you should correct the area along the hairline on the forehead.

Step 3. Eyebrow shaping

Eyebrows can optically change the shape of the face. Therefore, they also need correction. Beautiful eyebrows should have a clear outline, optimal length and width, and there should be no kinks on them.

The inner end of the eyebrow should not be higher than the outer

The hairs outside of the brow shaping should be plucked out. If the length is not enough, it is completed with a pencil or shadows. For eyebrow tinting, there is a special paint that eliminates daily tinting for at least 2 weeks. As for permanent makeup, it mimics natural hairs as much as possible.

Step 4. Eye makeup

Eye makeup helps to visually change the image. It also starts with the preparation and application of the concealer. This is especially necessary for redness of the eyelids, dark circles under the eyes.

There are several eye makeup techniques to hide visible imperfections.

Falling eyes effect

It can be removed by drawing a gentle line along the ciliary edge of the upper eyelid with any pencil other than black. Shade dark shadows, directing towards the temples.

Bulging eyes

A similar flaw will correct the clear shape of the shaded line above the eyelashes of the upper eyelid. It is necessary to smoothly expand the eyeliner line to the outer edge. Having shaded it with the help of dark shadows, cover the entire eyelid with these shadows, directing the shading to the eyebrows. The lower eyelid should also be brought in about a third, starting from the outer edge.

Close-fitting eyes

Dark shadows superimposed on the outer corners with shading to the temples will help to solve the problem. The inner corners should be covered with light shadows, shading them along the wings of the nose.

Wide fit of the eyes

Shadows a tone darker than skin should be applied to the bridge of the nose. Cover the outer edges of the eyebrows with neutral shadows. Use a matte lighter eye shadow on the outer corners of the eyes.

Step 5. Cheekbones and lips

Lip makeup involves applying lipstick. But before application, the lips also need to be cleansed with a tonic, applying hygienic lipstick. Lipstick spreads more evenly when using lipstick.

The lips are cleaned with a special scrub. A face scrub is not suitable!
Using a foundation.
Determination of the shape with a contour pencil.

Ideally, if the tone of the pencil matches the tone of the lipstick. Overestimating the natural contour of the lips with a pencil, visually increases the fullness.

You can reshape your lips with a pencil

To make the lips thinner, the contour line should move slightly towards the center.

Contour lines do not connect if the corners on the lips are omitted
It is necessary to apply a line from the middle of the upper lip, finishing the contour at the corners. Outline the line of the lower lip should be, starting from the left edge with short strokes.
Applying the first layer of lipstick from the center to the corners. In this case, you need to cover the entire surface. Lightly blot your lips with a napkin and powder.
Applying a second layer of lipstick to enhance the shape.

Applying gloss or light lipstick to the middle of the lower lip will create attractiveness by visually enlarging the thin lips. Plump lips will become smaller if you draw a line 2 mm below the natural contour with a pencil.

Light lipstick in a warm shade visually enlarges the lips

A more rounded contour will correct the flaw in the thin upper lip. In this case, the glare of mother-of-pearl on the upper lip will not interfere.

Age-related makeup involves lifting the highest point of the cheekbone for a lifting effect. This is achieved by applying a reflective emulsion, which visually creates skin tightening and volume.

The image for a lady after 40 years old is different from the options for younger women.

Note! The makeup room should have light walls and good natural light. This will ensure that the product is positioned as evenly as possible on the face.

Step 6. Thermal water or make-up fixer

It is often necessary to maintain makeup for a long time. In this case, make-up fixatives come to the rescue, giving durability, preventing spreading in heat, smudging from touch. These clips are the final touch to create a unique look.

The fixer is applied over the finished makeup... The mouth and eyes must be closed. The can should be kept at a distance of 20-30 cm from the face. Spray the spray on your face and wait a little. Then blot with a dry cloth.

For wet application, you can use this spray to wet the brush.
Many people use fixative as a primer before applying makeup, as this moisturizing layer is a good base.

Let's highlight the main ones.

Foundation on dry skin in winter must be used, after applying a greasy cream. Using a moisturizer in winter will exacerbate the problem and cause flaking.
For light makeup, thick foundation can be diluted with liquid day cream or moistened with water on a sponge. The tone will be more even, and the face will become more fresh and natural.
The foundation must be distributed from the center of the face to the sides. Otherwise, larger pores and wrinkles will be more noticeable as they will absorb more of the product.
Do not apply the cream on the face in large portions or use it in large quantities at once. This will make it more difficult to achieve even distribution and the tone on the face will be uneven.

It's important to know! Foundation, in order to avoid streaks and lumps, must be applied to dry, clean skin. The skin can be pretreated with a lotion or tonic appropriate for the skin type.

Bronzers

Bronze tonal shades in creams - bronzers are used in the case of corrective face make-up... There are step-by-step photographs on the internet with instructions on how to apply them correctly.

Bronzers are essential for pale skin tones to simulate a tan for a radiant complexion. But it is undesirable to use them in winter, as the skin can acquire a yellow tint.

Sometimes bronzers include glitter, which provides a unique radiant look, but such products are inappropriate in the daytime or at work. They are designed to create a festive, evening look.

Blush

When applying blush, remember that there should not be many of them.... Excess gives the face an unnatural and sloppy look.

For a harmonious make-up, blush must be combined with lipstick tone. They should be approximately uniform in color. In order to accentuate any area, light blush is applied. To hide some defects, blush of darker tones is used.

Highlighter

Highlighter is a relatively new but popular product in cosmetology. By highlighting some areas, thanks to the content of reflective particles, it successfully corrects the relief of the face, hiding fine wrinkles.

Expert advice:

golden highlighter will accentuate tanned skin;
peach tone is good for yellowish faces;
lilac and pinkish pigments are suitable for light skin with redness;
silvery tones are indispensable for pale skin.

Pomade

Lipstick plays an important role in creating a certain look.

It is carefully selected, depending on the color of the hair and eyes:

Bright lipstick is recommended for dark hair.
Brown-eyed girls often choose coffee or bright red.
Light eyes require a cherry or beige shade.

For proper face makeup, before applying lipstick (see step-by-step photo), it is recommended:

cleanse the skin with a special scrub;
apply balm;
use a foundation;

powder lips;
draw a contour with a pencil;
apply lipstick;
lightly blot with a soft cloth, apply a second layer.

Makeup plays a colossal role in creating a look. But we must not forget that it should not be vulgar. In creating a style, it is better to focus on compliance with status and age. It should be remembered that beauty largely depends on accuracy and inner peace.

Make-up and perfect complexion

You can temporarily even out the complexion with the help of decorative cosmetics. This method will not solve the main problem, but it will allow you to mask defects and look perfect.

Let us remind you that in order to create the perfect complexion with the help of makeup, the skin must be well cleaned of dead particles that are formed during the natural process of skin cell renewal. As a result, the epidermis grows dull and looks painful and tired. Regular exfoliation will remove the layer of keratinized particles from the face and prepare the skin for a complexion-smoothing make-up.

Before applying the makeup base, it is recommended to moisturize the skin and wait 10-20 minutes for the cream to be well absorbed.

If there are defects on the face in the form of age spots, traces of acne, scars and small scars, red spots, dark circles under the eyes, as well as manifestations of rosacea (vascular mesh), it is necessary to mask them with a corrector or concealer, depending on the purpose.

Corrector has a dense structure, it comes in different colors (green, orange, purple, etc.), is used to mask redness, rosacea, dark circles under the eyes, age spots and acne. Currently, they are produced for problem skin, with their help, you can also achieve a therapeutic effect. You need to apply the corrector before the foundation, pointwise, only on problem areas, gently driving it in with your fingertips or a sponge. You cannot rub in the corrector.

If salicylic acid is present in the corrector, it is undesirable to apply it to the area around the eyes.
