Supplies for Simple, Chic Makeup Look

Series Summary

Let’s face it. Without judgment or degradation, we can admit that most teenage girls today where more makeup than the escorts of a century ago. But this doesn’t have to be bad. Painting the face has been a religious and cultural tradition for thousands of years, and many people forget that makeup and sexual attractiveness are not always related. Wearing makeup for aesthetic reasons probably began with men, just like dresses, perfume, leggings, and jewelry. In different cultures different customs become popular. Think: it wasn’t so long ago that a male who manicured his eyebrows was creepy. We now have eyeliner-wearing guys all over the media and metropolitan areas of America. French men and women of the 16th and 17th centuries wore more makeup than stage actors do today, so let’s give our teenage face-painters some slack.

Expert Kelli LaBar will teach you step-by-step how to get that simple, chic look today. You will learn all about primer, foundation, and finishing powder to secure a good canvas. You will also see how to use eyeshadow primer, a neutral or nude eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara to get sultry eyes. Kelli also demonstrates the benefits of under-eye brightener, lip liner, and lip gloss. Add the perfect eyebrow shaping and waxing, and you are set!
