How do you apply different types of makeup?5 replies

I never really wear makeup. How do you apply it? I mean lipstick, foundation, blush-anything would be great. Thanks!

   Lipstick: Just put on your lips and don’t go out of the lines… and make sure your lips are moist and not dry when you put it on or else the lipstick will dry your lips out.

   Foundation: Make sure you pick a shade thats exactly your skin tone. And you always put it everywhere; not just on a blemish or it’ll look uneven. You can get liquid, pressed powder, or loose powder. I like wearing liquid with pressed powder on top but it’s what works for you

   Blush: Make sure your blush is appropriate for your skin tone. You don’t want dark skin with coral blush; and light skin with rosy tones. When you apply it, suck in your cheeks and the bone that stands out is where you want to apply it. You can put some on your temples too.

   Hope this helps!

   I agree with the top two answers, they are completely right about YouTube.
   I learnt everything from there, when i was a makeup newbie, i youtubed everything. All you need to type in the search engine is:
   “How to apply foundation” or something like
   “How to apply blush for dark skin or fair skin”
   It literally is a video encyclopedia!!

   Here’s a couple of video links of the more popular guru’s of youtube; check out there vids:

   they are really knowledgable in their field.

   Good luck and happy makeup-ing!!

   Lipstick: Fill in with a light pencil, and then apply the lipstick like a lip balm. Foundation: At your age, I would recommend not wearing liquid foundation but wearing a light loose powder one. Dip a fluffy kabuki brush in the powder and spread it evenly across your face. Blush: See foundation. Use a rosy tone.
