How to become a "dear woman": 10 secrets of status makeup

It may seem strange, but expensive makeup is not the one made by luxury cosmetics. Even cult brands can fail to make up, especially if you ignore the stage of preparation for applying makeup.

What is the main secret of expensive makeup? He is not alone, there are ten of them. We have compiled a detailed “map” that will help you create the best makeup. We start with the care and end with the consolidation of the result - in the most direct sense.

1. Prepared skin

Makeup artists say that the main thing in high-quality makeup today is shine. To achieve the effect of radiant skin from within, you need to properly prepare it for makeup. For example, remove dead skin particles with peeling, moisturize your face, and use care products with shimmering components.

2. Base makeup

The make-up base acts as an “additional” layer, helps to hide oily sheen and dryness and disguises age spots. With it, you will be 100% sure that all the flaws are hidden.

3. Skin tone and contouring

The tone should not contrast with the neck, décolleté, and hairline. The effect of tanned skin can be created using a zoned bronzer. The shade of the foundation itself should suit you perfectly. It is better not to flirt with contouring in everyday makeup: if you wish, place light accents on the cheekbones and eyelids with a fluffy brush.

4. Suitable blush

Blush helps to refresh the face and lift the cheekbones. It is best to take pink shades, especially cold ones, but with peach (and any with a red undertone) you should be careful. Pay attention to the texture: the most convenient to apply are cream blushes.

5. Natural eyebrows

Drawn eyebrows with clear edges look cheap. Professionals advise abandoning complex geometry and “filling” with one color. Instead, focus on naturalness: emphasize the texture with fixatives, and then paint on the hairs for volume. If the eyebrows themselves are thick, then only the first item can be dispensed with.

6. Monotone

Do you want to look expensive? Then do not wear complex gradient eye makeup during the day, especially with glitter and a thick arrow. Unless you are into ballroom dancing: at competitions, such make-up is just right. It is better to lightly mark the eyelid with a nude shade or apply bright matte mono shadows.

7. "Clean" lashes

Makeup artists advise drawing the lash line with dark shadows or a pencil to emphasize the density. Apply mascara carefully, avoiding lumps and glues on the eyelashes. If they still appear, do not let the flaws dry out - remove them with a clean brush.

8. Shine

Glitter can also be created with decorative means at the final stage. Get into the habit of adding a little bit of highlighter to your cheekbones, above your lip, and in the corners of your eyes.

9. Moisturized lips

Lipstick color and not texture are of secondary importance. If your lips are dry and chapped, then even Dior products will not look good on them. Moisturize your lips at night, before going out and applying long-lasting lipsticks. A silicone-based lip primer will urgently save the situation.

10. Fortitude

The most important secret of expensive makeup is its durability. Choose quality products, but do not forget to fix them with sprays.
