Makeup class is in session!!!
Hi, I'm new to this subreddit and I was hoping to get some advice abt doing my makeup. I'm hoping to use this post as a summary of how to use every single makeup product and why we use it.
I'll go first:
Foundation-used to cover up slight scars and make your skin look flawless. People also use it to change their skin tone a bit, applying lighter or darker shades based on how they want to appear.
How: People can directly apply it on their face or they put some on the back of their hand and spread it out when they apply. Tools used to blend out consists of brushes, sponges, a spatula, anything really.
Mascara-makes your lashes look fuller and longer, it apparently then makes your eyes bigger?
How: Use an eyelash curler to first curl your lashes. Get a mascara and start from the roots of your lashes. Apply upward and repeat for about 4-5 times.
Primer-can help hold up your makeup longer and doesn't make your foundation cake (meaning it looks very thick and dusty)
How: Just apply the same you would apply lotion but about half the amount.
Lip gloss-hydrating for the lips but also glistens, most also have color in them
How: This is pretty straightforward, just grab the applicator and glide it over your lips.
