    The eyebrows are responsible for giving our face the right frame to embellish and highlight the look and the rest of the features. If you usually make up, let me tell you some things you probably did not know, so you avoid making mistakes in the future.

    #1 What tools you will need

    Before starting to make up your eyebrows, you should make sure to have a tweezers at hand, an angled brush and another brush like the ones used to place the mascara. Both will be necessary to apply makeup and give the necessary finishing touches.

    #2 You should pay attention to the shape of your face

    It is important to keep in mind that for each type of face, the shape of the eyebrow should be appropriate. If your face has angular characteristics, opt for a more rounded shape that will soften it. On the contrary, in the case of round faces, the ideal is to form an acute arc that adds intensity.

    #3 Focus on the most important points

    There are three important points on your forehead that you should focus on. The first is the beginning of your eyebrow near the nose. To know where you are, take a pencil and align the beginning of your forehead with the side of the nose and remove the hair that grows outside that area. The second point is the area where the highest height of the arch will be. For that, move the pencil slightly to put it diagonally. Finally, to know where it should end, you just have to place the pencil on your forehead and move it to the end of the eye on the outside.

    This can give an artificial appearance that really is not very pleasant to see and that will be very noticeable, even if you have black eyebrows. To avoid this, use a dark brown pencil to make-up.


    #5 Where to start

    To make up your eyebrows and not make mistakes, the ideal is to start from the center and continue to both sides.


    #6 If your eyebrows are dark, clear them

    If you have fair skin and very dark eyebrows, you may have to lighten them so they do not look so hard and thick.


    #7 Mixing the pigments is important

    Use the mascara brush to mix the pigments with the hair on your eyebrows. Brush them up, to one side and then down to get a totally uniform color that looks as natural as possible.


    #8 Do not forget the eyebrow gel

    Once you have finished everything, gently comb the hairs of your eyebrows with the gel to prevent the makeup from running. You can also spray the brush with a little spray and you will get the same effect.


    #9 Applies a concealer

    One way to highlight your eyebrows is to use a cream concealer. With the help of a flat brush, outline your eyebrows at the top and bottom and then mix it. This will create a clean line that will make your eyebrows look like they were made by a professional.

    #10 For more natural eyebrows, use powder instead of pencil

    For a more natural finish, use matte brown eye shadow for makeup. Take the angular brush and apply the shadow in the most unpopulated places.

    What are you waiting for to make up your eyebrows? With these tips you will surely get results worthy of the best beauty salons.

    Fluid and luminous foundation

    The base is the key element to create a perfect canvas on the skin and make other makeup products is perfect. A good foundation of makeup is one that blends with the skin and brings moisture and life to the face. There are many formulas in the market, but if what you want is to look a rejuvenated and beautiful face, without a doubt your best option is a fluid and luminous base. Keep in mind that matte and compact bases age and accentuate a lot the visibility of wrinkles and that, in addition to a fluid application easy, you need one that integrates light beads to make your skin look more radiant.

    It is essential that you choose the right tone of the base for your skin; otherwise you will get a very unfavorable artificial appearance. To make sure you make the best choice, do not miss the tips we give you in the article How to choose the foundation.

    Dark circles and bags in the eyes!

    The signs of aging are visible earlier in the eye area and, therefore, camouflaging them should be something essential for you if you want to dazzle with a more youthful complexion. Professional makeup artists insist on the importance of concealing both dark circles and eye bags with a little concealer to show off a more beautiful, luminous and rested look. Take note of how you should use the concealer to hide each of these imperfections:

    ·         Cover the dark circles: apply a concealer with pink and yellow pigments on the area of ​​the dark circles to camouflage that bluish tone that characterizes them and that gives an aged appearance to the face.
    ·         Disguise eye bags: apply a beige concealer similar to the skin tone or a little darker in the most cleft part of the bag.

    Matte and neutral eye shadows

    If you manage to rejuvenate your look, the effect will be transferred to the whole face and the final result will be incredible, you will notice that you have taken many years off!
    First, you have to pay close attention to the type of eye shadows that you apply. The ones that rejuvenate and brighten the look are mattes in neutral tones, such as beige, terracotta and gray. And, how to apply them? So to enhance the look to the fullest, it is best that you do it through a subtle and delicate smoky, that is, they shine more intensely on the roots of the eyelashes and clear up as they get closer to the arch. the eyebrow. Discard the pink and violet shades, they are two shades that give a more aged look to the area of ​​the eyes, likewise avoid shadows with glitter.

    Bet on a subtle eyeliner

    The eyeliner is a cosmetic that can be the best ally to enhance the look or, on the contrary, the worst enemy creating an effect of dwarfed and aged eyes. The key is to apply it correctly and in the right place. Bet on a classic eyeliner in black and draw a line flush with the upper lashes, so that it is slightly raised when you reach the end to achieve a feline look effect.

    Avoid delineating the lower water line, as this reduces the vividness of the face and, if you want to give more light to your eyes, apply a touch of white pencil to the area of ​​the lacrimal.

    A touch of illuminator

    This one of the tricks of makeup that rejuvenates the face and that will allow you to be spectacular with a much more radiant skin. You only need an illuminator, which you must apply at strategic points of the face, this way you will get a multidimensional look and bring lots of freshness.

    Where to apply the illuminator? Mainly, in the following areas of the face:

    ·         At the temples and between the eyebrows to extend the look.
    ·         Under the arch of the eyebrow.
    ·         In the upper part of the cheekbones.
    ·         On the fins of the nose.
    ·         In the central zone of the chin.
    ·         In the center of the forehead.

    Yes to creamy cosmetics, not powders!

    As we progress in age, wrinkles begin to be visible on our face. When this happens, it is important that when we put on makeup we try to hide them and not accentuate them more. For this, experts recommend that we opt for cream makeup products, because they are lighter, melt better on the skin and give the skin a fresher and fresher look. On the contrary, powder cosmetics should be avoided, since if they are used in excess they mark much more wrinkles and lines of expression.

    One of the cosmetics that you can choose in cream format to beautify the contour of the face is the rouge. Apply it right in the upper area of ​​the cheek bone and you will look beautiful. In the following article we explain step by step how to apply the rouge cream.

    Pink and shiny lips

    Finally, in the task of makeup to look younger you can’t forget your lips. With age, these look increasingly thin and dry and, therefore, we recommend that you contribute youth and sensuality by applying lipsticks with a volumizing effect.
    In addition, it is preferable that you use lipsticks in light and pink tones to show a more youthful appearance and that you discard those in dark and muted colors that, on the other hand, can add years to your image. Giving them a touch of gloss or gloss is also a very good option.

    Makeup mistakes that age: avoid them!

    ·         Apply a base of makeup darker than the tone of the skin of the face or use very heavy bases.

    ·         Exceeding in the application of the concealer on the area of ​​the eye contour.
    ·         Apply too many compact powders on the face.
    ·         Apply the blusher too close to the nostrils.
    ·         Show very dark lipsticks.
    ·         Bring too thin eyebrows.

    It may be that the concealer and the illuminator look similar products or that they apply practically for the same thing. But none of that. These are two different products that are used for totally different functions.

    In this entry you will be able to understand the difference between corrector and illuminator and to know for what, how and where they should be applied.

    # Concealer

    We started with the concealer. It is a product that is basically used to cover imperfections or what you do not want to see from your face. You can cover dark circles but also scars, grains or blemishes. The concealer is the perfect solution to easily disguise the small stains and imperfections and to unify the tone of the skin.

    How is the corrector applied?

    It is applied with a brush of stiffer bristles, with a sponge or with the fingertips. With little touches not to drag the product.

    The correct form of application to cover dark circles is following the shape of an inverted triangle and then fade well the contours to integrate with the color of your skin.

    When applying the concealer or any other product in the area of ​​the eye contour it is important to do it smoothly and tapeworms to not increase the formation of wrinkles. The skin around the eyes is four times thinner than the rest of the face.

    Which corrector tone to choose?

    In general, a lighter shade than your base of makeup is used to hide dark circles, grains or stains. But there are other more specific colors like:

    • For dark circles or violet spots and black dots , better use a yellow concealer.
    • For blue or very dark circles, the orange corrector is perfect.
    • For redness or rosacea best test with a beige or green concealer.
    • For greener veins, you can use a pink or salmon concealer.

    What is the order of application?

    It is applied generally after the eye contour and moisturizer and before the foundation. But you can reapply after the foundation if you see it necessary, looking to create a more uniform face and no imperfections.

    When to use the concealer?

    Not all people need corrector, nor at all times it is necessary to apply the corrector. Maybe you do not need it normally but it is convenient to have it in your dresser for possible unforeseen 😉 such as an annoying granite.

    In my case I use it always because I have very dark circles and without corrector my eyes look very deep and sad. It is one of my essential products.

    Their presentations are varied. You can find concealer in pencil, bar, compact, creamy or liquid.

    Ask your Beauty Consultant which is the most appropriate for you and try it in a session of automation or skin care.

    Extra tip: apply loose translucent powders over the concealer to seal it 😉

    # Illuminator

    The illuminator is used to the contrary, to highlight and give light to some areas of your face. With the illuminator you add a touch of luminosity to your cheekbones, chin, under the arch of the eyebrow... in those areas that want to give a touch of natural light.

    In general, the illuminator serves to illuminate, highlight or profile.

    How is the illuminator applied?

    The illuminator is applied with small touches in the areas that you are going to highlight and then blunt with a brush, a sponge or the fingertips.

    Where is the illuminator applied?

    Fundamental to apply on cheekbones to achieve a fresh and radiant face.

    But you should not use it on the bags under the eyes or dark circles, you would draw attention to them. In this case you should use it in the dark area that is just below the swollen area to lift it optically.

    If you want to open your eyes put a point of light in the tear and under the arch of the eyebrows. If you want to expand your front gives a touch in the center. If you want to profile the face apply a touch on the chin. To tune the nose apply a line on it and then blurs. To highlight the lips, a touch on the upper lip. You can also apply it on the shoulders and the escoste.

    Use the illuminator to highlight the most beautiful areas of your face.

    What is the order of application?

    Makeup foundation is one of the basics of makeup ... it is one of the first products we learn to use and it becomes a great tool for special occasions or for girls who need to balance the skin on their face every day.


    Tips for Applying as a Professional

    1. Distribute a few drops on the side of your hand, mix lightly with a brush.

    2. Apply and stretch using a brush from the center of the face towards the ends. Distribute properly with the brush. Continue the application over the whole face without carving, until the base has melted perfectly with your skin. Pay close attention to the area of ​​the nose and the contour of the lips.

    3. Be careful of the outer areas of the face. To avoid the 'mask effect', the base must be perfectly diffused when it reaches the hairline and the application should continue under the face until it covers the neck.

    At L'Oréal Paris they have an incredible base from the Infallible product line, where their experts reinvented the liquid base formula to offer a long lasting base with maximum coverage and optimum comfort. The secret of the formula? The moisturizing Hyaluron that contributes a hydration continues for a feeling of comfort throughout the day and a finish as of just applied. It also contains extreme fixing pigments for better coverage.

    I just tried it and girls, I'm delighted! I do not use makeup every day, but I use it when I have special events or when we have TV appearances (which is when one needs it most).

    The result is incredible, covers all the imperfections and leaves the face super matificado (I have problems of face glossy, you know and more when one gets nervous or has the lights focusing to the maximum). But what I liked the most is that it has a very light formula, you do not feel the foundation and moisturizes your skin very rich, that is, they will not feel sore or without elasticity, but it adapts to your skin like a cream.


    Within this same line you can also find the Infallible powder, which is the ideal complement for the base, and a line of lips Infallible with super flirty tones that literal last for hours and hours.

    There are two types of makeup for the body: artistic makeup or body painting and makeup itself to cover imperfections or spots that could have skin shows. In this opportunity we will delve into the makeup itself. This is ideal for scars, stretch marks or stains that we want to disguise, for a party or some event in which we pretend to be divine.

    If we go to a party and make up the face, it is very common for us to notice that the neck, neckline and arms are not in relation to color or that a heterogeneous aspect of the skin is evident.

    Body Makeup: Which to Choose and How to Apply to Cover Skin Imperfections

    Choosing the right make-up for the body is perhaps a little more complicated than it looks. In principle we must take into account the extent and the place of the body that we intend to make up, what type of clothes we are going to wear and for what type of event we require.

    It is necessary to clarify that if we go to a party and we pretend to apply make-up for the face in the body, our dress will be gradually staining in the zones in which it touches the makeup skin. If we go to the beach, maybe it is easier to keep the clothes safe but we will need the base to be water resistant.

    We must evaluate the different options:

    A good option to take into account is the full sun. This acts as a spray makeup and lasts intact for a couple of days. It is ideal for a party although it is limited its use to the summer by its orange hue. As a similar option we can use self-tanning cream or aerosol.

There are several shades available, so you can achieve a very natural look by choosing a color similar to your skin. To apply shake well, spray directly on the hand and apply on the skin. We spread homogeneously and let stand for 60 seconds before dressing. The Sally Hansen product line features different types of airbush, some with bronze and even shimming, which are ideal for a gleaming skin in the summer.
    • Make Up For Ever: is a makeup of very good quality. Your line includes liquid base for the body. The texture is quite light and liquid (oil-free), so it ensures a matte-tone skin. It has a medium coverage, so if you want to cover a scar or spot notorious you should apply corrector in the area.
    • Covermark: for its properties could be described as an unalterable makeup. It is a base with high hiding power, making it ideal for covering imperfections, spots, scars, moles and tattoos.

It is recommended to use the fixing powder of the same line for a perfect finish.

    How to prepare the skin It is desirable that the skin is clean and free of dead cells before applying the body base, so it is convenient to exfoliate during the bath. We can use a vegetable sponge or exfoliating masks with cleaning granules.
