"Hi, are you having trouble with your makeup? Not sure where to start or where to go? Well, you've come to the right place. My name is Sylvia Russell and I'm going to show you how to apply your makeup in ten easy steps. Now, first thing, make sure you apply your foundation. Make sure it's nice and easy and you get good coverage. Second is your concealer. Concealer is applied under the eye area. If you have dark circles, or under eye bags, concealer is not always a necessity. Next thing, apply your eyeliner, soft and natural around the eye, making sure not to do it too dark, especially if it's for the day time. Once you've applied your eyeliner, go ahead and apply your eyeshadow, keeping it soft as well. You can use a shimmer powder, you can use a matte powder, use whatever you think will enhance your natural eye. Once you've applied your shadow, go ahead, take a pencil and enhance your brow. This is something that will give you a beautiful, help make your face shape look more beautiful. Use the color that compliments your brow. Once you've done that, move onto your blush. Remember, blush should be soft, very natural looking and don't take it too far into the nose. Once you've done that, go ahead and apply your lip liner. Lip liner is very easy. Take your time to enhance the lip area. You can also use this to color in the lip or you can use a lip line, a lip gloss, or a lipstick to do the same. Once you've finished coloring your lip, go ahead and use your mascara on thee eyelashes, this way you finish the look when you use your mascara, and then you can move on to your powder. Powder will be the last thing you do over the entire face. Now remember, there are many, many ways to apply your makeup and ten steps is just the beginning. My name is Sylvia Russell and this is ten steps to creating a beautiful, new you."
