Of course, if you get some handy tips, then your job can become quite easy. Below are some useful and creative ideas on achieving that innocent natural look, which is ideal for the day, as well as on getting a classic look, which you can wear to any party in the evening.
Easy Makeup Ideas For that Gorgeous Look
Natural Look
Step 1
Clean the face thoroughly and apply a good quality moisturizer with sun protection. Now apply the concealer on the skin areas which are slightly darker than others, such as under the eyes or on skin areas with blemishes, dark spots, etc. You can either apply concealer with your fingers or you can use a makeup sponge, whichever of the two you find convenient. Next, apply powder on the skin. Lastly, take either the bronzer or the blush and apply it on your cheeks. The best way to apply them is to smile first and then apply these from the center of the cheek, sideways up towards the outer edge of the eye. To get such natural, easy makeup styles, remember to keep the blush or bronzer light.
Step 2
Now that the skin makeup is done, let's move on to do the eye makeup with these easy eye makeup tips. Start with applying a light shade eye shadow on your upper eyelid. Now, apply a darker eyeshadow on the eyeball area and also the area slightly above it. Next, apply a thin eyeliner on the upper eyelashes. Curl the lashes with an eyelash curler and lastly apply mascara.
Step 3
The last step in achieving this natural look is to apply a light shade lipstick and put a lip gloss on it.
Classic Look
Step 1
To get this classic look, start with cleaning the face and applying moisturizer. Now, apply concealer, under the eyes and on other problem areas of the face. Next, apply the foundation, preferably with a sponge. Make sure that the foundation is applied evenly on the face. Lastly, apply blush using the same procedure as mentioned above.
Step 2
Applying eye makeup correctly is very necessary to get that classic, sophisticated look. For this, you should have eye shadows of light, medium and dark tone of the same color. Start with applying the lighter tone on the entire upper eyelid area. Apply the medium tone on the eyeball area and the darker tone, just below the eyebrow. Blend all the three eye shadows nicely with a brush. Next, apply a thin eyeliner over your upper eyelashes, with the line extending slightly beyond the outer edge of the eye. Also, apply liner to the lower lashes as well. Keep the eyeliner thin to get the perfect classic look. Follow this up with curling the lashes and applying mascara as usual.
Step 3
Before letting you on some easy makeup ideas for lips, here's one very important tip on getting the perfect lips, and that is to always keep them moistened and smooth by regular exfoliation and application of lip balms. If your lips are smooth, lip make up will look even better. Start lip makeup with applying a lip liner or a lip pencil on the outer edges of the lips, with special attention to the corners. Next, apply the lipstick. To get an even lipstick, place a tissue in between your lips and press gently. Afterwards, apply lipstick again and follow it up with a lip gloss.
The makeup looks mentioned here can be achieved within no time. However, perfect makeup is not the only thing that will accentuate your beauty. A smile, flirting eyes and a positive attitude are equally important to become a super diva!
