Quick Makeup Tips

With the busy lives that we lead these days, many women have perfected the art of applying their beauty cosmetics in less than 10 minutes. While it will not give the same stunning results as applying makeup carefully over a longer period, it still adds a little glow to the face and a glimmer to the eyes. This will make the woman look fresh throughout the day.

Whether you have 10 minutes or an hour to apply makeup, the first item to apply is the makeup foundation. Makeup foundation helps to conceal uneven skin coloring and thus, makes the effect of makeup more pronounced. Rather than rubbing the foundation, pat the product onto the skin. In fact, if you are running short of time, you could simply apply the makeup foundation in the uneven patches of your face, rather than the entire face.

To appear awake instantly, focus on your eye makeup. Beauty cosmetics made for the eye area usually make the eyes look bigger and brighter, thus dispelling all the hints of sleepiness. The main product to use in eye makeup is the mascara. Apply it onto your upper lashes and your eyes will undergo a transformation. Always use black mascara, no matter what the color of your lashes. If you wish to elaborate your eye makeup, apply a quick sweep of eyeliner and eye shadow as well.

Apply the blush to highlight your cheekbones. Using a medium brush, lightly pick up powder from the container. Apply maximum color to this area and use light circular strokes to blend this upward, toward the temples. Finally, use the remnant color on the brush for the rest of the cheek to achieve a well-blended effect.

For lipstick, use the stick and start applying color at the center of the upper as well as lower lips. Gradually move out to the corners. Now, press your lips and rub them together to distribute the color evenly. After this, use your little finger or your lipstick wand to apply more color on the lips. This will control the amount of color used. The second coating will ensure that the lipstick lasts for a long time.

When you choose colors for your Makeup foundation and blush, take care that the color complements your skin well. For makeup foundation, the shade should be a near match for your skin shade. Otherwise, the effect will be that of a mask. With blush, choose a color that matches the inner portion of your lip.

With this, your makeup for the day is complete. Now you can confidently step out of the house to go to work, drop your children at school or perhaps to a get-together with your friends. The entire process should not take more than 20 minutes. Even if it does, rest assured that skill only comes with practice. A few days and you should soon know the routine by rote.
