Welcome to the world of beauty and makeup, where every detail counts. Every day women may make a number of makeup mistakes that lead to a tired and unpolished look. Here are tips and tricks from British makeup artist and beauty expert Karen Betts.
The first mistake that Karen points out is the wrong shape of the eyebrows. Very thin, arched eyebrows can visually make you look older, and their unnatural shape only accentuate imperfections. Opt for a natural density and shape, which will emphasize your beauty.
Another common mistake is applying too much concealer. "Many people apply a thick layer of concealer to hide dark under-eye circles. But this can lead to a cakey look. Use a lightweight concealer so it doesn't accentuate your lines," Karen advises. She also recommends choosing a shade that is slightly brighter than your skin since dark shades tend to add age.
One more common mistake is ditching blush. According to the expert, too pale complexion looks tired and old. Apply a little blush to your cheeks to give your skin a fresh and healthy look.
Eyeliner on the lower lash line is an absolute "no." Thick eyeliner makes your eyes look tired, and no amount of concealer will help improve the overall look. Instead, Karen advises applying dark shadow and smudging it to create a smoky eyes effect.
Never forget to use a primer before applying foundation to smooth pores and wrinkles, and choose a hydrating primer with hyaluronic acid to create a firming effect.
Also, avoid excessive contouring, follow bone structure lines and choose a palette of tones that matches your complexion. With these simple tips, you can create the perfect makeup look that will accentuate your natural beauty.
