Makeup Blunders

Makeup has the ability to transform your look like a diva, lest you get it right. The common mistake people commit while doing makeup is that they overdo things. In the quest to look good, the beauticians often highlight all the features and you look like a clay doll drowned in colour. Remember less is more when it comes to celebrity style makeup. Ever noticed why Red lipstick looks good on models in the magazine, that because they only play up one feature. When they emphasize the lips with a dark, loud shade of lipstick the rest of the face is kept pale similarly if the eyes are highlighted then the lips are nude.

So the idea is to highlight just one feature and keep the other areas subtle and light. Another makeup blunder is the use of very light foundation, Indian women have an obsession for fair skin and in order to look fair they go 2 shades lighter than their natural complexion.

This kind of foundation base looks extremely artificial and caked up, it is a fashion disaster. Never use a foundation that is lighter than the colour of your skin, it be the exact match of your skin tone.

Makeup will look good only when you use good quality and a good brand. Don’t compromise on the quality, for those cheap ones can play havoc with your skin. Also you wont get pastel shades in such makeup kits, they only have dark loud shades.

Makeup application is another area where people make a blunder, makeup should be applied slowly step by step. Don’t rush with makeup application for it will become difficult to correct any mistakes. Also the brush that you use for applying makeup should be of good quality, else the bristles will break and application will become a task. Keep these simple makeup tips in mind while you set yourself to get gorgeous.
