Evening makeup is a big concern for many women. Because of this, it appears that increasingly more women begin to seek the services of a make-up artist even if they are only to a special evening out. Even though this might be a good solution, you can save a lot of time and money if you decide to do it yourself, without requesting the help of a professional.
First of all, you should know that it is not enough to use a touch of blush to the eyes (often matching the color of the dress), mascara and a touch of lipstick that will go away in an hour. You must first apply a good base for your skin in order to make the makeup you apply look good. In addition to this, a foundation that is suitable for your skin is also required. Do not forget about the concealer, but make sure you do not insist with it too much. For optimal effects it should be applied under the foundation, and thus avoid the effect of “white eye”.
The next step is to decide on the actual makeup. You must use powder, in order to avoid dark circles on your face. If you do not use it, dark circles will stand out, and so will the bags under the eyes. Many women experience complex when it comes to using it, in order to avoid highlighting the wrinkles. However, always remember that the imperfections on your face might make you who you are and are beautiful in their way.
Finally, in terms of eye makeup, the preferences are different in every woman. There are only a few basic rules of thumb that you will need to follow to ensure everything looks good. For example, if you want to use a red lipstick or another strong color a very simple eye makeup is recommended. This can be a fine line of black ink or of a pencil shaped eyeliner. A fitted black shadow should be apply after this, slightly blurred so as not to look too dramatic. Another very common issue is related to the colors you can choose for the evening makeup. If you are dressed in an outfit dominated by one color, avoid using the same color for your makeup. Instead, you can use complementary colors to highlight the eyes and make them consistent with the color of the skin and the hair.
