Step 1
Wash your face. Although this sounds like a no-brainer, applying makeup to oily, unwashed skin can create an unnatural look. It can also lead to acne, which may sully your honeymoon.
-
Step 2
Apply a moisturizer to your face before applying makeup. Dry skin will make the cosmetics look uneven.
-
Step 3
Pad foundation gently over your face. Padding, as opposed to smearing or rubbing, will ensure even coverage, and will help you avoid stretching the skin.
-
Step 4
Apply powder to your face.
-
Step 5
Brush on your blush. Starting between the ear and cheekbone, use downward strokes. Blush goes on smoother when applied after, not before the face powder.
-
Step 6
Apply the lip liner, being careful not to leave a heavy line. This can be done with either a pencil or a lip brush.
-
Step 7
Apply the lipstick to your lips, blending the color in with the lip liner. You want one solid shade, rather than a dark line around the edge of your lips.
-
Step 8
Use an eyelash curler to curl the lashes. This technique will help create fuller-looking lashes.
-
Step 9
Do your eye makeup last. First, apply the eyeliner, then the eye shadow, followed by the mascara. Putting on the eye makeup in this order will yield the most natural look.
