Hiya, I thought i would make a group for makeup tips, i am a makeup artist for Urban Decay House of Fraser and would love to hear any makeup tips to give me and all of you some great ideas
Heres a few of mine.....
For Celebrity Makeup Looks go to page 11
*Allways prepare the skin well first, Exfoliate, Cleanse, Tone, Moisurise!
*Use concealer on any areas that you need more coverage like under eyes, spots, blemishes
*Foundation is applyed well with a foundation brush, sponges seem to soak some of the foundation up and they are not so easy to clean
*Use a powder on top for a more flawless look, test foundations on the jaw line and make sure it blends in well with your skin tone
*Blusher can applyed to your cheek bones to give you a bit of colour or shimmer and highlights the area
*A good primer potion is great to use before eyeshadow if you find your shadow wears off or creases
*If you want to give the appearence of wider eyes use a small amount of white or silver eyeshadow in the inner corner of your eyes to open them more and you can also use a white pencil in the rim to widen eyes more
*If you allready have big/wide eyes dont bring the lighter colour into the corner and use a darker pencil in the rim
*Use a highlighter on the brow bone aswell
*Blend 2 or 3 shadow colours together starting lightest in the corners and use brushes to blend well
*If you go heavy on the eyes go natural on the lips and if you go natural on the eyes go stronger on the lips else you will end up looking like a drag queen haha
Trick-If you use a eyeshadow primer mix a small amount with some shadow on a liner brush and you can use it as a liner instead of a shadow
Trick- Use tape on the outer edge of your eye so the shadow is a precise line
Id love to here any of your tips or tricks or pictures
heres me at work
