Use Moisturizer Before Makeup

The most common mistake that most people make is that they do not moisturize their skin before applying makeup. Moisturizer hydrates your skin and creates a moisture barrier to protect it. The moisturizer also provides a perfect base to apply makeup. A moisturizer helps you to cover your scar whiteheads, blackheads, splotchy skin, dark areas, acne marks, and blemishes. 

If you use a gel moisturizer then it will make your skin even, and smooth, and give it a shiny look. Applying makeup on such skin will give it a realistic glow. 

Concealer As an Eyeshadow Primer

You do not have to spend extra money on buying an eyeshadow primer to do your makeup like a professional. You can use your usual concealer as an eyeshadow primer. It works just like the store-bought eyeshadow primer. The concealer should be light and liquid but not too moist so that it makes the eyelid smooth. 

Now take a small amount of concealer on your finger and apply it to the middle of your eyelid. Pat the concealer from the center of your eyelid into the inner corner and then to the outer corner of the eye. Make sure to blend the concealer into the crease of your eyelid perfectly. Just after applying the concealer apply the eyeshadow on, it so that it perfectly adheres.

Add A Bit of Oil to Your Foundation

This hack is best for those who have dry skin and want to achieve a natural dewy complexion. It will hydrate the face and give the coverage you need.

Take a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand and then add a drop of face oil I the foundation. The amount of oil depends on how much coverage you need, and you can adjust according to it. Mix the oil in the foundation until it is smooth and even and then apply the foundation as usual.

Makeup Sponges Are Essentials 

Instead of using any other makeup tool to apply foundation use a Natural Sea Sponge For face to apply foundation. Applying foundation with a sponge gives it a more natural and glowing look. It gives your complexion a more even tone.

Try Lip Liner

If you want your lip makeup to last all day long, then you should add a lip liner to your makeup routine.
