How Can I Get My Make-Up To Look Like the Celebrities?

I look at all the mags and they give u tips on how to get ur makeup to look great...but it never seems to look the same...i want mine to look like it does in the magazines...any suggestions on how to do my makeup to look like that?How Can I Get My Make-Up To Look Like the Celebrities?
I have to point out before I say anything else that celebrities who appear on the cover of magazines are airbrushed to DEATH - in other words, even they don't look as good as themselves on the covers of magazines! I've included a link below to give you an example of a before %26amp; after shot with airbrushing.





I also have to point out that many of these women have professional makeup artists who do them up before they go anywhere they will be photographed - Victoria Beckham, as an extreme example, is best friends with her makeup consultant and literally has the woman follow her around all day so she can touch up her makeup! Normal people do NOT have time to constantly be adjusting their makeup all day.





That being said, there are a few tricks you can try...redo your makeup every hour or so to make sure you get rid of smudges and faded makeup. I would get a cute little makeup bag to stick in your purse. As for perfecting your look, head to a department store and set up an appointment for a makeup consultation - they're usually free, and one of their trained people will do your makeup for you and show you how to get that look. With practice you can get pretty close to what they do - and if you can't afford department store makeup, just remember that you don't have to buy everything or even anything they use - you could buy one of the products or none of them, and then find similar replacements at the drugstore.

One of the problems you are running into is the photos being retouched before their placement in the magazines....and that is the source of most of your problem.





Another problem ishaving a smooth ';canvas'; to apply make up to. To this end you should try a make up primer. Not just any primer though. It should one that prays on in a fine mist and has no oils. When it dries it will tight tem the skin a bit without drying it out!
Ok firstly, magazine pics are ALWAYS retouched. Don't think for one second that if you ran into the person in the street they'd look like that.





Try only doing things you think will work with your features. For example, if you have small eyes, don't try the dark eyeliner tip with the model with huge eyes, etc. You sound pretty young, all you really need is mascara and a nice shiny pink lip gloss, trust me.
Try a natural mineral make-up. It goes one silky smooth and looks great every time! Usually matches your skin tone better too. There are many brands. They do cost more than the stuff you can buy at the drugstore though. I think it's worth the extra cost. My 17 year old always looks great and the mineral make-up does not cause her acne to be worse which is always a plus. Hope that helps.
It's called Photoshop my dear
in magazines they photoshop all of the pictures. what you see on a page is never what they look like in person. there's no use in trying to get it perfect. because no one has that...
