The month of November is an exciting month for the girls. Why? Because we can say that this month is a preparation for the coming holidays. Christmas is one of the biggest and most celebrated events in the world and is also the celebration for the last month of the year, there are lots of parties and gatherings. So today, I am going to give beauty tips on basic make-up.

Step # 1 – Before applying make up, make sure that your face is clean

This is the very basic step in make-up. You should wash your face clean. One tip I can give here is that use some facial cleansing foam or soap to clean your face. Do not use the normal soaps that you use in washing your hands because since the skin in the face is very soft.

Step # 2 –Toner, Lotion and Sunblock

After washing your face, do not proceed on putting the cosmetics right away. You should put the toner first to clean up your face more and to keep your face moisturized. Apply some lotion, it gives your skin moisturization and nutrients. Next, put sunblock. This is important because many people think that they do not have to put sunblock with the reasons like the weather is not that hot or their BB creams or other foundations contains UV protection. Even if the weather is not sunny or hot, even if your BB cream or foundation contains of the sunblock, you have to put sunblock to protect your skin from the ultraviolet rays. The one in the BB creams and foundations cannot protect your skin that much, so you have to put it separately.

Step # 3 - Base

After putting the toner, lotion, and sunblock, it’s now time to start with your make-up. You can now start putting the base. Bases are the CC Cream, BB Cream and Foundation. The downside of this is that though the BB Cream and Foundation are both at covering blemishes, the color of the product on the skin changes, and turns yellowish.

TIP: When you are putting the base, always tap it for the skin to take it well.

Step # 4 – EYES

Now fix the eyebrows with the pencil or browcara. Do not make it too thick or too thin, find the right thickness and apply it. The next thing we do is to put on eyeshadow.

After putting the eye shadows, put eyeliner. The thickness and the design is up to you because you are the one who knows what is best for your eyes. If you are putting the make up for the first time, try all the styles and find out the best for your eyes. After that, you now put the mascara. Before putting the mascara, use eyelash curler and curl your eyelash up. After curling up, put mascara. The mascara does not have to be thick but make it long.

TIP: In choosing the eye shadow, put on light colors. Make the make-up simple but sweet. If your skin is somehow white, put pink, light red, or orange and if your skin color is somehow brown, put gold, dark orange.

Step 5 – LIPS

This will be the last step for the basic make-up. Put on lipstick on your lips. If you want your lips to stand out, put on shades that are bright and thick. If you are going for something simple, put on lipsticks that are of the lighter shade.

These 5 steps are just the basic make-up steps. But one last tip I want to give is that your face is beautiful enough that you do not need thick or colorful make-up. I guess with this simple basic make-up, you can give so much change to the people and you can make yourself beautiful. BE PROUD YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL.
