8 Tips on How to Make Your Makeup Last All Day
A lot of women would love to look the same way in the evening as they did when they left the house in the morning. But it is not always possible. It is not always that makeup is your best friend and stays the same way you applied it in the morning. Walking, traffic, stress at work and sweating all cause makeup to disappear and if you either cry or sweat a lot you risk the chances of your mascara running down your face and creating quite the ghastly effect. You can invest in water proof make up to make it last all day or try some of the steps below to ensure that you look as fresh as you did in the morning.
1. Use a good cleanser
Before you apply makeup, make sure that you clean your face well. Choose a good cleanser depending on your skin type. Your cleanser works well when you get the right one for your skin type. A cleanser for oily skin will not work as good on a dry skin. Clean your face and wipe it well before you apply makeup.
2. Moisturize your skin
After you have cleaned your skin, dry it thoroughly and apply moisturizer to it. If your skin is oily, try and get a moisturizer than has a matte effect or finish so you do not end up looking all shiny.
3. Primer
If you want your make up to last all day, then you should invest in a real good primer. Not only that you should also take care in applying it. Apply it evenly throughout your face, especially on parts that are red or on blemishes that you want to cover up. A good primer keeps the shine off your face.
4. Eye primer
When you use an eye primer, it keeps the make up on for a long time and also prevents creasing. A good eye primer also makes the eye shadow colors look more vibrant and less translucent.
