One of the most popular kinds of make up is mascara. Enhancing the eye lashes widens your eyes and makes them more expressive. Make up tips for applying mascara include: wiggling and pulling the wand back and forth across the lashes to ensure that the lashes grab the most mascara that they can, using a fresh tube of mascara no more than three months old, using a small mirror close to your nose and holding it under each eye as you apply the mascara and going slowly as to have plenty of time to be neat and thorough in coating each eye lash.
If you are a beginner, your make up tips should be kept simple and as you advance in your adeptness you can add more to your routine or palette. A beginner should use a nude eye shadow, it is flattering yet subtle. Apply the eye shadow with an applicator wand, either sponge or brush, whichever you prefer. A long handled applicator would be nice, but a short one will do. Get blush in a nice pink shade that is about as dark as the basic complexion of the person to be made up. Fair skin should use light pink and dark skin a darker pink. Sheer rosy lip gloss, only a small amount darker than the natural lips is really nice. If the lady is very young, you can leave off the mascara until a later time. Another good step before advancing to deeper shades of make up, eye liners and lip sticks is to visit a professional make up artist and get a make up lesson from them.
Make up tips for eye shadow can help give you the fashion edge. When using smoky, deep palettes of shadow, line your eyes first in black, gray, purple or dark blue. Next line your lower lids in a liner a shade or two lighter than the upper lids and fill in the upper lid with a layer of light base color to the crease, then at the crease apply a deep color of your choice, going as deep as you wish. Use a dampened cotton swab to make each made up eye match. Go lighter on the lipstick and blush, as not to take away from the dramatic eye make up.
Have you seen the new mineral make-ups? Make up tips for mineral products are in order, we want to be careful that we use the product right, since we are not used to it. To begin with the mineral powder can be applied dry or you can make a liquid foundation if you add some water, mix in a separate container and apply with a make up sponge. To use the make up dry, get a little of the powder into the container's lid, swirl the brush into the powder then tap the brush on the rim of the lid expelling any excess before brushing it onto your face in a circular motion. Always be careful not to use too much of the mineral make up for the pigment is very concentrated. With the make up, start at the hairline, do your jaw next, work toward the middle of the face until it is covered and end making up your nose, all with a swirling motion as you go. Be sure to apply the foundation first before advancing to your eyes and the rest of your face.
