The most difficult part about looking like a woman is usually applying makeup, because it requires a lot of practice and skill. Be patient and learn from your makeup disasters. It is okay to fail, as long as you get back up and try again.
We asked all our makeup artists to give us 5 quick makeup tips that can help make any girl’s life easier. We took all the lists and have condensed all the suggestions down to what we consider are the 10 best fast makeup tips. So, without further ado…
1. Use the correct makeup tools
This will help so your makeup doesn’t streak and is evenly applied where it needs to be. Applying makeup with the right brushes makes the world of difference, just remember to give them a wash regularly so bacteria is kept at bay.
2. Use makeup remover
This is the most effective way of getting all your makeup off fast. Soap and water will dry out your face. You can buy effective makeup remover in lots of different forms, and aside from our Albolene makeup remover, we also recommend things like micellar water, as this will help to cleanse your skin at the same time.
3. Always dress your lips
wearing a standout lipstick can work to camouflage skin flaws. So, pick a pretty pink, or red and rock a brighter, bolder makeup look for your next night out.
4. Invest in a smoky eye kit
Smoky eyes are simply perfect for the best ‘going out’ look. You could opt to purchase a smoky eye kit which includes all the right shades, or you could work with a standard makeup kit and try out different colors to see how they work with a smoky eye to find your favorite look. This makeup tip will help you define your evening makeup!
5. Always wear primer
Always prime your face before applying any makeup to ensure your makeup stays on all day. We’ve put together a primer review so you can explore some of the best brands alongside how to apply primer and why it’s worth using.
6. Always wear something on your cheeks
Wearing a touch of blush or a simple bronzer will give your face dimension and make it look more lively. It’s a great way of adding depth to you look and it also helps to draw attention to your cheekbones.
7. Keep blotting papers around
Especially in the summer, carry some of these in your purse to blot sweat or water off your face without smudging or taking off your makeup.
8. Always moisturize
Moisturizing is a no brainer whether you’re dressing en femme or not. It helps your skin thrive and will leave your face looking healthy and flawless. Moisturizer is key especially if you like to opt for more natural makeup looks.
9. Always stock up on beard cover
Beard cover is paramount in helping you hide that pesky 5 o’clock shadow. You don’t really want to run out of this product, so we recommend when you see your bottle is half empty, that’s the time to buy some more.
10. Make the most of your best features
Last but certainly not least, be sure to make your best features stand out! Big beautiful lips need color, long elegant eyelashes need mascara, high cheekbones need blush, and beautiful eyes need eye shadow to match. You’ve got the makings to be the most beautiful lady, so all you need to do is let your best assets shine!
