Looking Good Is Never A Crime, Here are the 7 steps to great makeup, Looking good in 2018, As It was said, Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder... this tip is an iceberg to those who will read, understand and apply it in they life


Here it goes, The 7 Steps to Great Makeup, Looking Good in 2018 and beyond.. starting with the following- - -


1. For a Great Makeup, Avoid wearing too much

Makeup is meant to enhance features not bring negative attention to you. That's what wearing too much makeup will do; it will bring you unwanted attention. Don't wear too much of anything such as:

i) Eyeliner: dark, thick eyeliner will make you look overdone and will ruin the rest of your makeup.

ii) Mascara: too much mascara looks fake and will flake. It looks especially bad if worn with thick eyeliner or dark blue eye eyeshadow.

iii) Foundation: Make sure your foundation is the same color as your skin. Foundation is meant to protect and give the face a smooth look. The magic word is a blend.

iv) Powder: The same holds true for powder - not too much. Also, be sure to blend your makeup, so there are no obvious lines



2. Lips

To Apply lip liner to cover the lips completely, add color and your lipstick will stay on much longer. Make sure your lip liner doesn't show. Also, your lip color should match your skin tone; wear cool colors if you have cool coloring and warm colors if you have warm coloring.

If you want to make, your lips look smaller, keep your liner on the inside of your lips. However, if you decide to make your lips look larger, going outside the natural outline of you lips is a mistake. This can look quite messy and unnatural.


3. Apply Appropriate makeup
Wear makeup that is appropriate for the occasion. If you are going to the Market, you shouldn't wear the same or as much makeup as you would if you were going dancing or hangout. Also, when you are in daylight, your makeup should be lighter than when you are out for the evening.


4. Too little or no makeup

Some women don't wear makeup because they are not sure how to use it and are afraid of being overdone. If you are unsure, the start will light colors in your shade.

Start slowly and add one product at a time. Maybe start with the foundation, add mascara, blush or lipstick. If you are not used to wearing makeup, using a lot a first may be a little too much for you, so start slowly. The bottom line is a little is better than none. If you are still unsure, seek professional advice or go for make up school.


5. Overall look

When your makeup is completed, it should look natural. That means avoiding colors that clash. If you have dark skin and hair you will look better in darker shades;


Light colors will make you look washed out. If your hair and skin tone is light, light colors will look better on you. Dark makeup will make you look older and harsh. If you have oily skin, first use oil control moisturizer and foundation. Then be sure to wear loose powder, keeping pressed powder with you for touch-ups.



6. Hair color

Your hair color should also be in harmony with your skin. If you have dark hair and you want to add color, keep it close to the same shade.

If you have light hair, use light colors. As you age your skin will lighten, so should your hair color. One last thing about hair color - if you do color your hair be sure you keep it up, don't let your roots show.


7. One last thing

Keep makeup looking fresh all day by doing regular touch-ups when needed, Don't let your makeup fade or crease. Smile!!!

Nikra:
These are some great tips, thanks for sharing. Like any other woman, I love makeup, and I enjoy playing with different looks. My number one rule is: Less is more, and I also use only professional and natural products. Sometimes it's hard to find an appropriate product for you because the market is overwhelmed with so many brands and cosmetic lines. When I need a piece of advice, I always look for Makeup reviews because for me it's important to know what people think of a certain product and how it worked for them. This way I choose my make up, and so far I've never failed.

My wife is also interested in makeup reviews and makeup reviews in general. I like when she uses makeup, but as you said sometimes less is more.
