Hi everyone!!! so finally I am bringing you all a small party makeup video and I am quite excited for this one. This makeup video is in collaboration with a Delhi and Lucknow based makeup artist- Ishita Sood.Since the wedding season has started and everyone wants to look her best. So we guys did a small party makeup video and hope this could help you all in any way.
Everyone has their own perception
regarding makeup some like to wear it and some do not. But it will be wrong to
say that people who wear makeup are fake and they do it to hide their flaws. Everyone
loves themselves as they are and if they don’t then they should. Earlier I
never used to wear makeup but I feel that makeup makes me more confident so I
love wearing it. I feel that makeup enhances your personality and make you look
more presentable. Everyone do not have same kind of skin it is their very own
choice that how they chose to tackle with their skin issues- with or without
makeup. But if you are like wearing makeup then make sure you don’t make it
look unnatural. Doing makeup correctly is the first thing that everyone needs
to know.
FIRST STEP- Moisturize and Prime
We used MAC fix plus 'prep+prime' spray. This works excellent
for hydration and priming the skin. Besides this much known fact that primer
only helps your makeup to stay on for long there are many other unknown facts
that why it is essential to put on primer before you put on rest of your
makeup. It helps in reducing redness of your skin (if you have such problem
with your skin) and it also helps in concealing spots on your skin to some
extent. It even smoothens, softens and makes your skin feel makeup ready.
Primer also avoids direct contact of your skin with makeup, so protects it from
acne and germ build up.
It is not necessary
to make primer part of your every day makeup but yes when you want your makeup
to last all day then you should definitely go for primer first.
SECOND STEP- Eye Makeup
We finish the eye makeup first so that any shadow fallout
does not mix with our foundation. For the eye makeup, create eye contours and
crease using a matte brown eye shadow. Here we used MAC eye shadow in the shade
embark.
Take a soft lid color like gold and finally a darker color
like black or dark brown on the outer v of the eye to give definition and
shape. Choose colors for your eye makeup according to your outfit color.
Next fill kohl in the water line
Tip: use kohl only on ¾ th waterline to make eye appear
bigger and more open.
THIRD STEP: eyebrow shape and fill.
Highlight the brow bone using any highlighter. Here we used MAC
soft and gentle. Eyebrow filling is one of the most important parts of your makeup
for everyday. I used to hear a lot that girls “keep your brows on point” always
but never knew why it is so. Then I consulted Ishita and she made me understand
that how an eyebrow helps in structuring your face. I seriously feel the
drastic changes whenever I get my eyebrows filled and shaped. I have never got
my eyebrows threaded so it is always important for me to get my eyebrows on
point before I step out from my home.
You need to keep few things in mind when you are doing your
brow.
1.
When you fill your eyebrows make sure you use a
color similar to your natural brow color otherwise it will look unnatural.
2.
Do not exaggerate your brow by making unnatural
arch do it according to you face structure.
3.
Shape and brush you brow hairs using spoolie
brush.
FOURTH STEP: Put on false lashes
It is not that easy to put on a fake eyelash you need to
practise it beforehand.
Take an eyelash, measure it with your original eye lid
length and the cut to fit. Further apply eyelash glue on the eye lash band and
then very carefully put it on. You can use your hands and tweezers as well but
be very careful while using tweezers. Wait till the adhesive dries and by the
time you can get your base done.
NOTE:
As I am wearing fake lashes so we will apply eye liner when
the adhesive dries.
If you don’t want to wear fake lashes you can use mascara to
enhance your eye lashes but don’t forget to curl your lashes using an eye lash
curler. After you curl them you can put on mascara and then eyeliner and you
are done with your eye makeup.
FIFTH STEP: Foundation, Contouring and Highlighting
Mix your foundation with a pea size amount of moisturiser
and apply with a flat brush. This brush helps in giving full coverage and moisturizer
mixing helps to avoid cakiness in the makeup. We used MAC studio fix foundation
in the shade nc44. Contour and highlight you features accordingly. We used a
lighter and darker shade of dermacolor concealers from krylon.
Foundation is not to make you look fairer then your natural
tone so always make sure you choose a foundation shade closer to you natural
skin tone. Foundation is used to make your skin look flawless and to give an
even tone to your skin. So please make sure you don’t pick up a shade which
doesn’t matches your skin tone it looks totally unnatural and pathetic. So
please make sure you are wearing a correct shade of foundation.
For highlighting: It is done to brighten and lighten
up the center of your face so for this purpose we use a foundation of lighter
shade. Places to apply: under the eyes, bridge of the nose , forehead and chin.
Blend it using a sponge or buffing brush.
For contouring: It is done for sculpting your face so
for this purpose we use a foundation of darker shade. Places to apply: temples,
forehead, jaw line, sides of the nose and under the cheekbones. Blend it using
sponge or buffing brush.
LAST STEP: Apply blush, Highlighter and Lipstick.
For blush we have used MAC mineralize finish blush. Put on highlighter
and then apply lipstick as done in video.
You can use a Makeup fixing spray when you are done with
your makeup as it gives a glowy effect to skin and reduces any powdery feel to
skin texture.
BRUSHES USED: She has used Real techniques core
collection set.
1. Vega flat foundation brush:
