Health and Beauty - What do the professionals recommend?

Health and Beauty
- What do the professionals recommend?


Women have been wearing cosmetics for eons. There is evidence of people using cosmetics over 5000 years ago! Wealthy Egyptian women would paint their nails, massage their faces with creams and oils, use lipstick and eyeliner and color their hair. Given all this, things really haven't changed that much over the last few milennia or so!

So how you do put cosmetics on?
and how do the professionals suggest you do it?


Well, Take it from me that the most important thing you can do when applying makeup is to start with a clean face. A clean face gives you the perfect canvas for applying the rest of your cosmetics. A dirty face will make it much more difficult to apply makeup and cosmetics. Clean faces also help to keep your skin looking clearer and healthy when it comes to health and beauty.

After you have thoroughly cleaned your face (please take some time and make sure it is properly clean), apply your foundation smoothly and evenly. When foudation is applied correctly, it should not look like you're wearing it - this is a good starting gauge to see if you have done it correctly or not. The purpose of foundation is to smooth out your skin colors to cover up any blemishes and to help you put your cosmetics on more easily and more effectively. Your face should feel light and natural with foundation on and not caked in. If it is obvious that you're wearing foundation, or if your face feels like it's plastered, then believe me, you've put too much on! Also it's good to consider if you are using the right type of foundation. For foundation to work properly, it has to match your skin tone as closely as possible. If you are having trouble picking the right color of foundation, then talk to a cosmetics consultant at one of your local department stores or shops. If you've only put a bit too much foundation on then you can blot your skin with some tissue paper to remove the excess without having to start over again, this will save you some time.

If you want to, you can then apply some concealer to your face using your fingers. Concealer can be particularly useful around the eyes, meaning that if you have any dark circles around your eyes then you won't be confused for a panda bear! No matter where you use concealer though, always remember to blend, blend, blend and if you have the time, blend some more. basically, if the concealer is not blended into the rest of your face then it will only seek to draw attention to the spots your are attempting to cover up in the first place, thus defeating the whole point of putting concealer on and is not a very good health and beauty tip at all. It is only after you've washed your face and applied both foundation and concealer that you're finally ready to move on to the more noticeable and beautifying cosmetics such as eyeliner, eye shadow, mascara, blush and of course, every woman's favourite - lipstick. Stick to these guidelines from the professionals and you're makup applying days will be happy evermore!
