Hello my dear beauty addicts!
Do you have fun with your make up or do you think that putting make up on is such a task?
Once in a while, I encounter women who think putting make up on is like passing the road test for a driver’s license. They think about it too much! So here’s my response! Throw it to the wind! Forget about technique, color theory, just have fun with it. Play with your make up! Mix and match your eyeshadow, your lipsticks, bronzers, blush, mascara and anything else that you have it your make up stash. Because that’s how you learn.
To tell you honestly, I didn’t have formal training. First time I ever got a make up palette was from my aunt. And I seriously didn’t know what to do with it. So I got the help of a friend to teach me the basics and I went from there. I played with the color combinations. It wasn’t pretty all the time but thats how you learn. Trial and error is key with make up and when you find the right flow, technique and color combinations then that’s your foundation and you grow from there.
So for my friends who are still discovering make up how to’s! Here’s a run down of things that you may need. Basics!
A good foundation, Bronzer, blush, a quad color palette, eyeliner, mascara, lipgloss and lipstick. and a good concealer. And of course the primers for face, eyes and lips. And if you have more money saved to splurge, invest in good brushes because they will last you forever. As long as you take care of them.
How to learn: look at YouTube videos, go to a MAC counter or a sephora and get yourself a lesson. And from there, it’s up to you!
So beauty addicts, I hope you share this with your friends so they will become beauty addicts too!
xoxo, S.
