Quick and Clean Makeup Applications

Faye Morgan
Every woman today needs a quick and easy way to apply their make up, but the problem with that so often is that it ends up looking like it was easy and done quickly. Opting to go with a fresh and clean look can help to eliminate that unfortunate problem. The following step by step make up application will give you a fresh clean option that looks polished and is versatile enough to go from day time to night time in one minute or less.

Step One:

Prepare your skin with moisturizer and let it air dry completely. Do this each and every time you prepare to do your make up. Believe me this will help save you from premature aging and even delay them a bit. Always use a moisturizer before applying make up.

Step Two:
Apply foundation and/or any other complexion evening or balancing aids you may need to use, though keep it light. I recommend using a tinted moisturizer or a sheer foundation.

Step Three:
Sweep a soft brown or very light grey eye shadow over the lid and crease of the eye.

Step Four:
Rim your entire eye in a soft black eye liner. I suggest going just below your lashes on your top lid and just above the lash line of your lower lid.

Step Five:
Use a dark brown or medium grey eye pencil to line your eyes just above your black liner you previously applied. Apply just above the lash line on your top eye lid and just below your lash line on the bottom eye lid. Blend this with the liner and shadow very well.

Step Six:
Finnish this great clean look up with lip balm or a small amount of clear lip gloss. Now you are all done and ready for the day.

To take this look from day to night, apply a sparkling mineral powder on brow bone, the bridge of your nose and under you eyes. Also apply a classic red shade of lipstick and highlight with a bit of clear gloss in the center of your bottom lip and on your cupids bow. Every woman today is a busy woman and none of us need to have to take a long time to make ourselves up in the morning nor do we need to put fourth a great deal of effort. This make up design gives you that.
