How to Do Daily Makeup

Retouch lipstick throughout the day as needed.

Make your first impression count by choosing a daily makeup look that enhances your appearance. As you choose from colors that complement your natural coloring and products made specifically for your facial skin type, you can diminish flaws as you bring your best assets forward. Remember to keep your daily makeup simple enough to complete quickly, yet still maintain a sense of your own personal style. Above all, whether you choose a bold look or a softer one, consider your skin does need to breathe, so wash your makeup off before going to bed to allow it to do so.

Tips & Warnings

• Choose light-color, neutral eye shadow for a subdued daytime look.

• You can use face powder alone, instead of foundation, if you have non-blemished skin

• You can contour the shape of your nose and face by lightly applying blush to draw attention to them.

• If you decide to use a darker shade of foundation to minimize a double chin or broader nose, blend it very well or it will be noticeable.
