When it comes to how we can play around with makeup, the sky’s the limit. Despite the fact that there are many ways that we can get creative with our makeup, there are also many ways that we can go about it the incorrect way.
Here are probably the most common makeup mistakes that everyone should avoid.
1. Not Applying Moisturizer Early in the Morning
Regardless of your skin type, applying the moisturizer is an important step in any skincare routine – in morning and evening both. Even if you have oily skin tone. Indeed, when skin isn’t hydrated enough, it overcompensates by delivering more oil.
Solution:
Prior to putting your face primer, apply a decent amount of moisturizer onto your face, and let it sit for two or three minutes to completely absorb. Moisturizing your skin appropriately in the morning will set the foundation very well, and it is also good for applying the rest of your face makeup.
2. A lot of Blush
The pretty-in-pink look is considered universally appealing, yet it’s a totally different story when you pack your face with too much blush.
Solution:
For a good natural flush, smile and afterward apply your blush onto the apples of your cheeks in a circular motion moving downwards, then pull it towards your temples.
3: Using the Wrong Foundation Shade
It’s really common for us to see somebody wearing the wrong shade of foundation, regardless of whether it’s light, dark, or the wrong undertone.
Solution:
The most easy way to find your perfect match is to try out the shade on your jawline and mix right down to your neck.
4. Black Eyeliner on the Base Waterline
At a certain point or another, we’ve all been blamed for wearing black eyeliner on the base. When done accurately, wearing eyeliner on the base can truly make the eyes pop… yet doing it again with a black, harsh line can really make the eyes look smaller.
Solution:
Rather than utilizing black eyeliner, choose a lighter tone to line the base lash line. Another good way to accomplish a beautiful, sultry look? After applying eyeliner, utilize a dark eyeshadow to clear it out – or avoid the eyeliner and add some definition in the area with a dark eyeshadow.
