Evening make-up: the image of perfection

Holiday time always creates a desire to shine. Sometimes want to make a little more intense than during the day, and there's nothing wrong. However, as in all, we need a measure, therefore, necessary to avoid excesses.

Five mistakes to be avoided
 
Never try to experiment with new make-up for half an hour before leaving. This is the moment when the stress and anxiety provoking common flaws, such as streaks of mascara on the eyelids or fall on the cheek shadow.

 
Do not abuse the glitter. Despite the fact that many cosmetic companies produce the New Year collection makeup with glitter, that is no reason to impose such funds for eyes, cheeks, lips and neck at the same time.


Avoid overly dramatic make-up, which combines bright red lips and coal-black eyes. Pick one thing to emphasize, the other left in restrained. This is even more important rule, if your outfit is expressive.


New Year's Day - that is no reason to impose a double layer of foundation or powder.


Superposition of several layers of mascara to create the effect of artificial eyelashes often turns unnatural heavy lashes.



Tips for creating evening makeup

About a  week before the holiday pores start to take care of the eyebrows. They should be neat and natural - is the key to a successful makeup. If you tweeze eyebrows at home, before the procedure, do a steam bath for the face to open the pores and make epilation. Before plucking necessarily disinfect tweezers.

When making your evening makeup, after you have left a note for the person, start with makeup eyebrows. It will ask for the rest of the make-up line, which can be even easier than expected. A good line of eyebrows always attaches special glamor make-up, making the face look young and fresh.


The perfect tone for the face should be uniform, and to achieve this, you need to moisturize well. During the execution of makeup always hides imperfections by proofreaders, covering pimples, redness and under-eye circles. Apply the liquid foundation on top of impeccable quality (Clarins, Armani, Lancôme and Clinique), using a brush or sponge. The process of applying tone means should go slowly, in good light, it may take 10-15 minutes for a good disguise imperfections and create a perfect radiant complexion.




Accentuate your makeup with a delicate luminous powder. Gold is suitable for brunettes with dark skin, cold pink shades - for women with light hair and skin. Apply it to the top of the cheekbones, a little to the center of the lips for lipstick, and a small number of the middle part of the century, to "open" the eye.


Think about your outfit, which must be able to blend in with the make-up, always try on it in advance. Contrary to popular belief, the day of the event, you must first apply makeup and hair done, and then put on a dress. If you find that your makeup and hair are bright enough, you will have an option to review the wardrobe, choosing a more concise set.



To emphasize the eyes, use mascara with the effect of twisting the eyelashes, which are produced, for example, Chanel and Lancôme.
