Make up is used all over the world by people to enhance their features ,hide imperfections , to look younger or just have a fresh look. There are many ways to apply makeup and in different categories.Here are a few suggestions.

First decide what kind of coverage you want if you have uneven skin,and even if you don't, it's best to start by applying a primer. It will make your foundation last longer. You have to decide what look you are going for-matte, semi-matte, or dewy. Some women like tinted moisturizer rather than foundation, unless you like a very made-up look. Look for a shade that's a little darker than your skin, as your own color will still come through, but if you wear a shade that's too pale, it will give you an ashy appearance.

For the eyes, you have to decide how dramatic you want to look. But you should pick out a color for your pencil or shadow that contrasts with your eye color, i.e., blue eyes look warmer with copper or brown, green eyes with purple, and brown eyes with blue.

For lips you can have a natural look or a dramatic look.No matter what color lipstick you choose ,apply lip liner to the outline and fill in your lips. You can then follow with a gloss or lipstick. When wearing a red lipstick, use a brown lip liner all over first as the red pigment will last longer.

Avoid using very old lipsticks. They might cause pigmentation of the lips

For eyebrows always use a brow color that is as natural looking as possible. The main objective is to define not create over-powering brows. To fill in, comb first, then use feather like strokes with your pencil to fill in. To create a more natural look, comb again after applying the pencil.

When using an eye pencil, open your mouth slightly to relax the eye muscles. It will make lining a lot easier without having to pull or tug at your lid.
