Brushes and Tools
Knowing Your Skin Type
Step 1: Primer
Primer makes the skin appear smoother and softer as it fill in
lines and pores.
Most importantly, primer helps makeup adhere better on the skin
thus making your makeup last longer.
Step 2: Foundation or BB Cream
BB Creams: Supercharged tinted moisturizer, lightweight, sheer coverage
With SPF Content, perfect for everyday makeup
Foundation: Far superior coverage, offers sheer to heavy coverage
Great for flash photography and events
SPF + Flash Photography= White Cast
Picking the right shade is half the battle.
Get the correct base color.Asians generally have warm undertone therefore yellow-
based foundation.
Test the foundation shade on your jaw; NOT on your arm.
If possible, test in natural lighting.
For oily skin, know if you are acidic and adjust accordingly.
Types of Foundation Depending on Your Skin Type:
Powder Foundation:Sheer to full coverage, best for normal-oily skin
For heavy coverage, use sponge and apply in a dabbing motionFor sheer coverage, use a powder brush
Liquid Foundation:
Medium to heavy coverage,best for normal-dry skin
Mousse Foundation:
Medium to heavy coverage, best for normal-oily skin
Note: Always set your foundation with powder
to avoid oil build-up
Step 2.5: ConcealerConcealers and correctors cancel out
specific colors of blemishes, scars, tattoos and the like.
Redness from pimples = Green
Dark Circles = Orange/Salmon
Dullness and sallow tones = Purple
How do you apply concealer on your under eye area?
Step 3: BlushPowder blush, easiest formula to use
Cream blush, most natural-lookingbest for dry skin
Use finger in applying.The natural heat coming from our fingers helps melt and breakdown
the product.
Apply on the apples of the cheek and then BLEND upward and outwards.
Step 3.5: Contour & Highlight
Contour and highlight give the face more depth and stronger structure
Important: Always use matte product for contouring; shimmer will give more emphasis to the area thus defeating the purpose of the
contour
Highlights reflect light, and therefore pull or bring out features
Shadows or contours absorb light, therefore recede or push back features
Step 4: Eyebrows on Fleek
Do’s and Dont’s:
Do NOT over pluck!
Eyebrows frame the face; make sure to choose the
proper shade
Use a spoolie or brush to remove excess
productWhen filling in, use light,
tiny strokes to create natural-looking, hair-like
lines
Make use of different shades to create
dimension
Step 5: Mascara & Eyeliner
Tip: Use any piece of card to cover your eyelids when applying mascara to
prevent it from transferring.
Do NOT line the lower lash line without lining the upper lash line. This will make
your eyes look tired and droopy.
Tightline the upper lash line to give the appearance of thicker
lashes
To open up your eyes, line your lower lash line using beige or
white eyeliner
Step 6: LipstickImportant: if you’re going for strong eye
makeup, use a nude or muted shade of lipstick; and vice versa.
To make your lipstick last longer, do the “tissue technique”
Day to Night Eye MakeupDay Makeup:Use neutral shades or earth tones for eyeshadow
Define the crease to give depth
Use brown eyeliner for more natural look
Night Makeup:
Choose which feature to emphasize
Darken outer-V to intensify the look
Brighten inner tear duct to open up the eyes
Avoid products with SPF content
Blend, blend, blend!
