For the face

1. Use a cleanser and a moisturizer appropriate for your type of skin.

-Oily skin needs to moisturize too!

2. When applying foundation is best to use your fingers as brushes accumulate a lot of bacteria if you do not clean them often.

3. Use concealer if you need it. Yellow to hide under-eye circles, green to cancel out redness, purple for yellow bruises or yellow-colored skin. Use a color wheel to know which color will cover your flaw.

4. Set the foundation and concealer with loose powder and a powder blush or Kabuki brush.

5. Choose your favorite blush or bronzer whether it is powder or cream.

For the eyes

1. Prime your lids with a base to set the eyeshadow and make the colors pop.

2. Choose your colors and be creative! This is the fun part!

3. Wear eyeliner of the color of your choice; black and brown are the most common.

4. Apply lots and lots of mascara for a dramatic effect!

For the lips

If you wear a dramatic eye make up keep the lips simple, or the other way around.

Be bold and have fun picking out your colors.
