i want natural/glowing looking foundation a bit like this, please tell me a step by step process.
i have very dry skin so it would be great if you could recommend foundation/concealer/powder that would work well. thank you in advance.How do I get my make up like this?
I usually end up beginning low end and using a few different ones. Do what fits your situation and Im pretty sure your gut will be best.How do I get my make up like this?
For makeup, I would recoment Clinique. Maybe the Even Better Foundation, which is oil free but gives you a 'dewy' look. Finish with a translucent loose powder, to keep your makeup in place and control shine.
For the eyes, I think a black liquid line on the top eyelid would look good. Start off thin, then make it a bit bigger as you reach the outer part of your eye. Dont put it right up to the inner corners of your eyes.
Get a golden brown, slightly shimmery eye shadow and dust it lightly over your top eyelid, around where your liquid line is. Then blend some along your lower lash line.
With an eyeliner pencil, lightly darken your bottom water line (the line 'inside' your eyelashes) from the outside to about 3/4 of the way in. Too much will look too harsh.
Get a white or very light eyeshadow and put it on the inner corners of your eyes. This will brighten them and make them appear wider.
Put on a few coats of mascara, and curl your eyelashes.
Finish with a sheer pink lip gloss for a natural looking lip. Anything too dramatic and your lips will be competing with your eyes.
Hope this helps :)
hey shannon!
ok, well the first step to glowing skin is the skin careroutinee, if you have very dry skin, you something which has marshmallow extracts and aloe vera etc
so, first wash your face with whatever you have bought, make sure it specifies that it is for dry skin!
then, you want to exfoliate gently, dont use a shop bought one, they are much to expensive, and most have irritating perfumes and the like:
SUGAR AND LEMON EXFOLIATOR:
the juice of half a lemon, mixed with two big table spoons of sugar.
rub it gently all over your face, using circling motions.
after about a minute, wash it off gently with warm water and a flannel.
splash your face with cold water to restrict the pores and then apply a toner.
use a night cream, if your skin is very dry, i would reccomend the body shop's ';aloe soothing night cream'; its very creamy and thick, and it makes the skin glow, and it makes flaw less noticeable as well, concentrate around the eye area, gently massaging it in with the ring finger.
then, use a primer, it will make the skin appear glowing, and also keeps the foundation on for longer, i would reccomend benefits ';that gal'; its really smooth and gives a glowing complexion
then, apply a foundation using a sponge, if your skin is very dry, use a foundation with an spf, and moisturiser built in. i would recommend the body shop's ';moisture foundation spf 15';
finsih off with a concealer over any flaws and blemishes, search the market here, you need to try out a fair few before you find the right one, some companies offer samples, so you can use it for a few days and then decide whether you like it or not.
finish off with a coloured eyeliner on your water-line and two coats of mascara, keep the eyes toned down, you want the attention to be on your skin.
hope i helped xxx
now: for the make-up
