Every woman wants to look pretty and presentable. Make-up is a way by which a woman can make her self look and feel better. But sometimes, this makeup can make one look much older than her real age, or the other times, a good makeup done can make one look much younger. Learn how to look your best in less time with these tips, shortcuts, and smart tricks.

Even Out Your Skin Tone by Applying a Good Base:

Foundation or applying base to make your skin complexion look even is the most basic part of your makeup. In fact it’s the first step in any makeup whether its casual or formal. Choose the right shade. If your concealer is too light, it will accentuate dark patches. Don’t rub the makeup from side to side, which will actually remove the product from the skin. Pat it gently.  Keep concealer away from the outer corners of the eyes, where it can highlight fine lines.

Quick tip; A full face of foundation can feel heavy, so instead of applying it all over, touch up only those areas where your skin tone appears uneven. Choose a concealer that is long wearing or gives medium to full coverage in a shade that’s close to you skin tone.

The Eye Makeup:

A few coats of mascara are all you really need to appear awake and aware — and to walk out the door. For a more polished look, add a quick sweep of eye shadow. Multiple colors can be fun, but you can work wonders with just one.

If you’re using just one color, don’t apply it to the brow bone. Working with two or more? Apply only the lightest shade to this area.
