How to use concealer

concealer |kənˈsēlər|
noun
a flesh-toned cosmetic used to cover facial blemishesand dark circles under the eyes.

Concealer is very useful tool to cover up your acnes, freckles and dark circles etc.If you weren't using concealer and you didn't even know what was it,you should start using it from now on!I'm suggesting you to use it because I think concealer is the best invention in the world:)

Which concealer should I buy?When you choose a concealer, you should concern about the color and themaintenance of the concealer when you put it on your face.*Try putting it on your wrist vain to test how this concealer can cover well.
The color of the concealer has to be a little bit brighter than your skin color, but not too much.
To look natural, you have to put concealer where you want to cover, several times thinly.If you put too thick at the first time, that part will be wrinkled for the whole day.Also, you have to remember how to blend it naturally especially when your covering the acnes.

By writing, I can't tell and explain you all of the thing,I wish I was right beside you showing you how to do tons of makeups.Unfortunately, I'm not next to you, so I have a video clip that is exactly what I wanted to tell you.

This video actually starts at 0:25min, and ends at 7:00min.

Look how fantastic she looks after her makeups done!

Makeup base for your skin type

Makeup base control color of your skin.
It revises skin tone, covers irregular tone, and it will make your other makeup to smooth in to your skin better, as a base makeup.
You have to know your skin tone really well to choose the right color of makeup base.
Makeup base has variety of color to cover your imperfect skin tone.
There is three main color of the makeup base.


Green Makeup Base

It is most common color people use.
It helps to cover the red part of your face,
such as red cheek, or acnes.


Purple Makeup Base

It neutralize the yellow part of the face.
Purple is usually used to elder people who became darker and yellowy,
to give complexion.


Yellow Makeup Base

Neutralize purple, overall ruddy and bluish skin,
or the color of dark circle under your eyes.

They are also pink or orange for bright face to give complexion,
pink is good for paled face, yellowy bright face is good match with orange.
For yellow plus reddish face needs blue,
white gives partial highlight effect and brighten skin tone.
If you don't want any effects but just the clean catch of your skin color into one, beige is great.


For me, I think I will going to buy the purple color because my skin is pretty yellow.
I hope this had helped you to choose a color of your makeup base!

How to apply Base makeup



Now, you know what to do before the real make-up
(click here to see how to do a basic makeup),
and I have described you every step specifically in each post!
Now you are ready to do a full-make-up!:)yayy

Base makeup is the basic face makeup to catch your skin tone
after the steps of [skin, lotion, creme, suncream].
You start your base makeup always after all of these steps.


Here are the steps of Base make up:
(remember that this is all after basic makeups)


I know that this step was the last step of basic makeup,
but I wanted to remind you one more time!
Because this step is extremely important.
Remember to wash it off before bed:)

2. Makeup Base
Makeup Base is just to catch your skin tone into one.
Lots of people skip this step unless you want to look perfectly beautiful.
So if you just wants simple daily makeup, you can skip this step.

3. Concealer
Concealer is perfect to cover up your pimples, and freckles.
They are mostly stick type,
so you just touch it to your freckles and it will cover most of it.

4. Foundation
Foundation is a step to make your skin much brighter.
This step will cover up your skin troubles.

5. Powder
This is the last step of skin base makeup,
it finally make your skin white.

6. Highlighter.
Highlighter is a pur powder that makes your face dimensional.
With a brush, you highlights your forehead and nose(T zone),
cheekbone and end of the chin.
This will look like you have a higher nose and smaller face.




Makeup Base, foundation, and powder all support your skin to get bright and looks cleaner.
So it is very hard to describe them differently.

However, they are all different steps that singers and actors use all of this steps and even more.

For me when I go to school in the morning,
I simply shrink all of this steps to
concealer > powder > highlighter.

If you guys are busy to do all of this steps,
you can use those three steps to cover up your pimples,
and also make your skin tone brighter effectively.

Importance of Suncream


Suncream is always needed for all four seasons.

Wrinkles, freckles, pimples, skin cancer all of this things that are bad for skins
number #1 reason is sun's harmful rays!!
Especially in summer, sun rays goes even stronger than any time.

However,
there is an excellent ways of putting suncream on,
and it somehow blocks more sunshine and get a result what you want!



Here are tips you need:

You apply your sun cream after all skincare is done, before you start an actual make-up.
Sun cream actually works out after 20-30 minutes, so it would be helpful to put it on before 30 minutes you go out.

You should check SPF and PA. SPF stands for Sun Protection Factor. Like I already told you in the beginning, SPF 25~30 is enough. Reason why PA+++is best is "+"signs shows blocking strength. Remember it doesn't matter how your sun block is good, you have to apply it often.

Does sun block works when it's expired. No! It never works when it's over 1 year. So use it quickly and buy another one when you're done using it.

Also, You have to squish a lot, like a size of a coin, so it can be effective.

However, the most important thing is, you have to wash all of this sun blocks away every night every time you did sun block. If you didn't wash off the sun block, next day you will see more pimples and you'll feel your face got greasier.

Skin Trouble


Do you want to have a clean face like her? Or is your skin already clean?

The reason why actors and singers have great skin is because they spend lots of money that we can't even imagine. Therefore, we will never have the amazing clean skin they possess.
However, there are a few tricks that can help you get beautiful skin! First things first, you need to know what causes skin trouble.

Skin trouble is affected by various personal issues as well as exterior sources.
Personal reason might include lack of sleep, drinking, smoking, and stress.
Many other skin problems can be affected by air pollution as well.


How do you take care of your skin?

1. If you have any skin trouble, such as having pimples, try not to touch it. Scratching or squeezing will make agitate the area and even create a scar that looks like a black freckle.

2. Drink lots of water. Always drink a lot of water. It will make your skin brighter and is also recommended to improve digestion. When facing digestive problems, your skin can give off a yellow tone, which is why drinking water is so important.

3. Sleep well! After a deep sweet sleep, you'll see less trouble in your face.

4. Before you go to bed, wash your face. First try washing your face with warm water to open your pores. Then massage your cleansing foam on your face, just like the video clip that I uploaded, demonstrates! Then rinse off the bubbles with cool water so the pore closes. You should also be concerned about which cleansing foam you'll use.

5. Don't get stressed!!!! Stressing will make your face frown, causing your face to have more wrinkles. Try to always smile:)

Dark circles under eyes

Some of the areas under your eyes can get really dark. If the area
around your eye gets darker and darker, you will either look very tired
or very old. There are a few ways to prevent what we call “dark circles”.


In order to avoid dark circles, try to sleep at least before 11 o'clock!
Many teenagers have dark areas around their eyes because they play games late into the night, or due to procrastination. The main cause of dark circle is lack of sleep. The human body has to sleep at least 8-10 hours.

Don't forget to apply sun block under your eyes too. Be careful of
putting sun block near your eyes because it can be a painful
experience.

Remove your eye make up "eye make-up remover". After you wash your face, use lotion, toner, and essence to keep your skin healthy. For extra healthy results, you can use eye cream as well. Eye cream prevents wrinkles, and also makes the under side of your eye brighter. Wrinkles make your skin darker because of the shadows it creates. You can also try simple massage techniques to improve blood circulation.

Take lots of vitamin C or E. Fruits like orange is filled with vitamin C, which benefits the health of your skin. Try not to smoke or drink, because this interferes with blood circulation.

If your eyes are tired, exercise them by rolling your eyes, or look at
natural scenery,such as mountains.

  • Dark circles usually get darker when you don't get enough sleep.
  • When you get stressed, you get dark circles.
  • If you get too much sunshine, you can get too many wrinkles, which will create dark areas under your eyes.



*Tip* Cut a "cucumber" in to little pieces and put in under your eyes where there are dark circles. Then take a nap. After 20 minutes, remove the cucumber. If you do that for several days, you'll see how bright the under side of your eyes become.

The very first blog posting!



Hi!:)
I made this blog today.
I will mostly post the variety of ways to use make-up!
I will write about the basic make-up before you actually make-up.


1. Cleansing foam.
First, wash your face with cleansing foam.
Make sure you don't have any make-ups left on your face!

2. Toner.
After you washed your face, put your own toner on the cotton pad,
and clean your face again.
(Toner is the first step of make-up, in order to get rid of any dirt on your face.)

3. Eye cream.
Put eye cream around your eyes,
mostly under the areas where there is dark skins and wrinkles.

4. Essence.
I would also recommend whitening essence.
Whitening essence makes your face brighter.

5. Lotion.
If your face is pretty greasy, then you don't have to do this step.

6. Sun cream.
Applying sun cream is very important.
Make sure it says PA+++(Three +signs are best at blocking sun's harmful rays).
If you spend most of your time indoors, SPA 15 is enough.
If you are constantly outside, SPA 30 is enough.
If you are going to the beach or plan on staying outside for a long time,
you should put sun cream on every 2 hours.


If you can't do all of the above, then you can do at least use
toner,lotion, and sun cream.
