A lot of people can feel the same thing: Obviously the makeup steps are in accordance with the makeup tutorial, why the painting shows dirty? Looks older? Not only can block the defects that should be there, but also may inadvertently magnify the problems on the face. Do you have such trouble?

I think the reason for this kind of annoyance is either not seriously understand the problem of their own face, or understand but lazy to change their usual makeup process. I think the beauty of a makeup is reflected in many small details. Today I would like to talk about the small details that need to be worked on to look good and not look old.

- Too much makeup

Too much makeup can add insult to injury to an uneven face. Whether the foundation is too thick or too white, it will make the mask of the base makeup too heavy, highlighting facial flaws. For our daily, the base makeup can not be thick, close social minutes lose face.

In the summer, I suggest that you can use some foundation that is both moisturizing and holding makeup effect, and do a good job of foundation before makeup to reduce the situation of floating powder card pores. Foundation do not choose the color of white, do your homework to judge the degree of oxidation to choose the color that suits you.

- Makeup is too heavy

Too heavy makeup is just adding insult to injury for an uneven face. Whether the foundation is thick or the color is too white, it will make the makeup look too fake and highlight facial flaws. For our daily lives, we should not wear too thick makeup, otherwise we will lose face every minute when socializing in close quarters.

In summer, I suggest you use some foundation that is both hydrating and long-lasting as a base before makeup to reduce the chance of floating powder sticking to reveal pores. Don’t choose a foundation that is too white. Do your homework to judge the degree of oxidation and choose a color that suits you.

-Adjust facial flatness

If you have a lot of blemishes on your face, another topic may be involved: facial smoothness. Blemishes include not only acne marks, dark circles under the eyes, but also tear troughs, etc. When light hits your face, these problems pile up together, giving you the overall impression that your face is full of pits, lines are not smooth enough, and your face is not full enough. You will naturally look old.

When it comes to covering blemishes, if you have acne scars, choose a darker shade of concealer, apply it lightly and then soften the border line. For dark circles, directly find the darkest border line under the eyes, use this to cover upwards, and use the remaining amount on your fingertips to gently press upwards to cover. You don’t have to worry about not covering it up properly, there’s still a coat of foundation waiting for you later.

As for facial flatness, what we need to deal with are the ravines on the face, the most obvious of which are tear troughs and nasolabial folds. Teach you how to find the position when covering: Find a beam of light directly above your head, look in the mirror to find the shadows of your tear troughs and nasolabial folds, and just brighten the darkest areas. Use a small brush to apply unevenly. It’s better to get started directly. After this is done, you can then apply foundation and compare the results. The face will be much smoother and more beautiful than if you apply foundation directly.

-You need to know the choice between blush and makeup

Many people only use blush and contour to make them look older. Or just skip the blush if you find it too troublesome, resulting in a pale and bloodless face. Either the blusher is applied too hard or too much, causing a large area of redness on the face. As for contouring, I personally think you can skip it if you don’t know how to use it. Appropriate white space will make the face look cleaner and more natural.

In fact, everyone is pursuing a clear and clean makeup nowadays. My usual method is to use a lighter blush to lightly swipe the apples of the skin. A very, very small amount is enough, and the area does not need to be too large. In terms of color, you can choose some light orange or light pink with low color rendering to appropriately create a sense of blood.

By the way, if you have blemishes on your cheekbones, applying blush may make that area of skin appear dirty. At this time, when applying eye makeup, you can just sweep it onto the skin under the eyes.

-There are too many different lipstick scenes

Lipstick is originally a finishing touch. Why do some people not look as good as they imagined after applying lipstick? First of all, we should all know that not all colors are suitable for us, you have to find this yourself.

In addition, if your makeup already has a focus, then don't emphasize it on lipstick. Choose a relatively elegant color. Once the focus is there, your complexion is also there, and the makeup is complete.

I can teach you a more practical way to use lipstick in daily life. If you need to use lipstick to make your lips look fuller, find a lip liner to outline and then fill them in, and the lip shape will look better. If your lip shape is relatively fine, you can choose to apply lipstick in the middle and blend it around the lips. If you want your lips to look more tender, apply some lip gloss on the lip beads.

The small details I mentioned above are small problems that are often encountered during the makeup process. If you have such a problem, you can try to change it. A good makeup, maybe just a little change, will have a different effect.
