Makeup Tips to Freshen Up Your Daily Look

If you’ve ever looked in the mirror after applying makeup only to discover that it appears dull and a little uneven, trust that you’re not alone. Applying makeup is an art, and it takes practice. Think about the first time you put on your mother’s lipstick, blush, and eye shadow. It probably looked pretty messy! As you get better at applying makeup, you’ll learn a few tricks of the trade. Here are some that will keep your look fresh.

Clean makeup equipment routinely

Your brushes, eyelash curlers, and other equipment used for makeup application are going to be essential to how flawless your look is. If they are dirty or clumped up with old makeup, you won’t get the results that you’re used to or hoping for. Take the time to clean your makeup equipment, and if it’s worn out, you’ll want to replace it. If you find that you are continually replacing the same tools, go ahead and ask the makeup and hair salon about a higher quality product that will last.

Toss old makeup

There will come a time when your makeup will expire, and you’ll need to toss it and replace it with new products if you want to keep your look fresh. You’ll find some products will need to be tossed and replaced after a year, while others such as liquid based makeup will have a shorter shelf life of about three months. Keep up with these dates and your skin will thank you!

Use concealer directly on the trouble spot

If you want to have a fresh face after makeup application, make sure you’re using concealer correctly. You should place it directly on the trouble spot and not on the areas around it, or you can get a halo look around the blemish. Also, make sure you are choosing the best color for your skin tone if you start to notice these areas becoming more visible, even when you do conceal them with makeup.

Go with lighter lipstick or gloss

One way to freshen up your look is to go with natural lips. If you already have full lips (lucky you!), you can go with a gloss that will enhance the plump features of them. However, if your lips need a little help, then find a lighter shade that will keep your look fresh and inviting rather than a dark color that would be better for more formal events in the evening.

Take a pro makeup class

If you’ve tried practicing, but still can’t accomplish the look that you get when you leave a makeup and hair salon, then sign up for some pro classes. You’ll get invaluable information that will make your daily look not only fresh but flawless. Plus, you have an opportunity to ask questions that apply to you personally to help you expand your knowledge. Now that you just can’t find online.
