Make Up Tips for your Matric farewell
This time of the year mothers start worrying and daughters start scouring
every magazine for the best dress on the planet for the BIG event. Boys and
girls start worrying about their skins! They want to look perfect and they want
their complexions to be radiant for this special night of the year. This article
will provide you with some tips on how they can
achieve the best look for the matric farewell.
Skin
Start by looking after your skin from today onwards! Both ladies and gents needs to moisturise. Skin must be kept hydrated
in order to look good as a dry skin does not have that healthy
glow to it. Don’t forget the daily use of a SPF (sun protection
factor) to protect your skin from the sun’s harmful rays.
Preparation
By practicing the application of your make-up, you will know
what is going to look good and what is not going to work.
A Flawless Start
The best technique to ensure a good look is to start with clean
skin and moisturiser, and then use a corrector stick or a concealer if necessary. Use this sparingly as a little goes a long way
and it can easily look overdone. It’s good to know that pink
tones neutralise pinky-blue darkness and peach tones neutralise purple-brown darkness.
A yellow-toned concealer, one shade lighter than
the person’s complexion will brighten the area
under the eyes. You should take care with the
quantity you use and blend it well into the skin.
This is followed by a thin layer of base over the
entire face. The correct colour is the one that
‘disappears’ into the skin and blends with your
natural colour. A loose powder applied with a
brush over the base will create that flawless look.
