Makeup is essential for women. Either out of necessity or for mere pleasure, the truth is that at some point we all end up turning to it.
I’ve loved makeup since I was a child. At that time, I was amazed by how my mum and my aunts made themselves up, and I always told them that I wanted to inherit their cosmetics.
As we all know, there exist different types of makeup. The key is to know where and when to wear one type or another. If we know we will have a long and busy day from early in the morning, it is better to wear an invisible makeup. Then, as the hours pass by, we can apply a stronger eye color and transform the makeup into a “night makeup”.
Today I will give you some tips to get a simple and daylong makeup.
First of all, it is very important to cleanse the skin. After washing my face with cold water, I soak a cotton ball in an alcohol-free lotion and wipe it all over my face to leave my skin fresh and clean.
I like translucent and luminous makeup, so the first thing I apply is a moisturizer to light up the skin. You can also apply a prime with luminous glints. Many cosmetic brands sell it and you can use it to replace the moisturizer.

Once the skin is moisturized, the second step is to apply the foundation all over the face using a sponge moistened with thermal water. If you have a healthy skin, I advise you to apply just a little to even out skin complexion. Then, we smoothly apply the concealer exactly in the same way, using a wet sponge so that it is light and flows easily.

I don’t like wearing powder, but if you have an oily skin, I advise you to use one that is magical: “Make up For ever” HD High Definition Powder. It has a smooth texture, and so it does not dry the skin. You just have to apply it along the “T” area and leave the face’s luminous spots glossy.
The last step is to apply mascara to the eyelashes, and blush of any color to the apples of your cheeks. I prefer rosy tones and a powder two tones darker than my skin. I apply it below the apples to highlight them and give the face an angular shape. You can also apply a just lip on the lips to moisturize them.
In another post, I will teach you how to make up your lips so that they look just as Angelina Jolie’s. It is a magical formula that I learnt in Los Angeles and that has given me great results
Enjoy it!
