50's Makeup Tutorial

Yeah yeah yeah i know that this is a fashion blog but i really felt like doing a blog update about makeup. Another thing that i love is makeup! I was thinking that i could write about how to do 50's makeup. I love how sophisticated and simple the 50's were. This makeup is simple and any one can pull this look off.

1. Moisturize! Moisturize! Moisturize! Before

you put on any makeup it is always a good idea to put on moisturizer because it helps the makeup go on smoother.

2. After the moisturizer,you apply your concealer over dark circles or unwant

ed blemishes. This is optional but after you can use a lighter concealer and put it in the highlight points of your face(check bones, forehead, nose,

chin) to make your face look three-dimensional.

3. Next you want to apply yo

ur foundation with a makeup sponge and start from the nose to the ear in soft motions.

4.To hold the concealer and foundation in place, use a powder brush

to sweep the loose powder(i suggest mineral powder) across your face.

5. Next you should use a grey brown natural flesh tone blush to conture your face. Apply along the cheekbones and jawline. If you have a wide nose the you can conture on the sides of your nose to make it look thinner. Or if you have a wide forehead you can shade in the blush by your temples to make it look thinner.

6. After apply a matte berry pink blush on the apples of your cheeks.

7. Next you want to highlight the eyebrow. By highlighting these areas, they act as a reinforcement and a lift to the face.peak of you cheeks and the highest point of your eyelids(right next to the eyebrow).

8. After apply a primer to the eyelid. Use a vanilla or shimmery white colored primer.

9. Next take a light natural brown eyeshadow and apply it in the crease of the eye. Make sure the color is matte.

10. After apply the

same matte brown on the lower lash line to act as an eyeliner. Make sure to soften and blend the color as much as possible. You want it to be soft and subtle.

11. Next choose your fake lashes of choice and apply them as close as u can to your lash line. For this look i suggest thin flare lashes that and an elegant touch to this look.

12. With black liquid liner create a nice smooth line. Make sure to get the eyeliner as close to your lash line as possible. This blends your real lashes with your fake ones.

13. With your mascara of choice apply it to your lashes, real and fake. This will also blend the lashes together to make them look real.

14.On your waterline apply a white eyeliner. This will open up your eyes and make them more wide.

15. Line your lips with a pure red(if red is to bold for you, use a pink alternative). Then fill in the lip with the lipliner.

16. Use a red lipstick to apply on top of the lipliner.

17. Next for the finishing touch apply a clear lipgloss on the top of the lipstick for a nice glossy finish.
