For preparing the base, choose foundation of a shade lighter than your skin tone and apply it all over the face. Tip is that; apply foundation on neck, ears, corner of mouth, bridge of nose and corner of eyes so that there is even tone.


For hiding under eye circles and other imperfections on face, avoid adding more foundation rather use a concealer.

During the day you need sheer application of foundation, so mix it with moisturize having SPF.


Before applying concealer, apply little SPF moisturizer over the skin.

For hiding imperfections, you need to apply concealer directly over the spots. It has denser than foundation in composition.


For under eye circles, just pat little concealer and blend it gently with ring finger.

Makeup Tips for Applying Face Powder:

Carry facial oil soaking tissues with you as they absorb extra oil without smudging the makeup.


Use translucent face powder whether alone or over foundation or over moisturizer. It will give all day flawless, shine-free and natural look.


While choosing face powder, go for a shade which is three shades down from your foundation shade.

If you want apply eyeliner to make your lashes fuller and heavier and still want to look natural, apply small dots with brown eyeliner pencil between the lashes on your lash line.


For a neat and sophisticated look, apply a very fine and continuously smooth line along the lash line with eyeliner pencil.


If you want dramatic look, apply mascara on both lower and upper lashes. For heavier look, apply second coat of mascara after first coat dries up.
