Take care of your face. Makeup removing

7:20 PM

Usually people just wash their faces with water and some face wash lotion or something like that and its ok. At least for first 10 years of wearing the makeup. Bit this is not the best solution at all.

Face washing should be just like a massage for your face to help skin feel itself better.
Makeup removing is very similar to makeup process but not many people think this thing worth it.
You should get the right makeup removing lotion/mousse/gel/milk/foam for your skin type and please please please don't use soap! Besides you should use good quality cotton pads or cotton swabs.

I'm new! Makeup products for beginners and people of any age

10:33 PM

When I was a teenager I didn't like the makeup cause I had no idea how to use it. I didn't even know where to start and what should I apply.
My mom hasn't been helpful in this case cause she almost doesn't use any cosmetics.

In this post I've decided to tell about makeup products for beginners of any age.

Makeup Theory: (stop being a panda) eyeliner tips

1:38 AM

Yes, yes, I know, there are a HUUUGE pale of tips and tricks for eyeliners but I still want to share some information with you.

People are asymmetrical, there are no two ideal identical parts.
But the asymmetry is so light that we almost cannot see it though. Girls might notice that eyeliner is usually drawn great on one eye but we cannot repeat the same on the other eye.

Makeup theory: neutral and monochromatic colors

11:23 PM

This post is the 3rd in 3rd day and this is the end of quick color theory.

Today I'm going to tell you some things about neutral and monochromatic colors which are the most useful colors in makeup.

There are many monochromatic and neutral palettes and everybody LOVE them.
You're not sure in it, aren't you?

Well, let me explain and show examples.

Neutral colors

Neutral color is neither warm nor cool and that's why they are extremely wearable for different people.

They look good on its own and can be easily matched with any other color.

Black is the strongest of the neutral colors. On the positive side, it’s commonly associated with power, elegance, and formality. On the negative side, it can be associated with evil, death, and mystery.
White is at the opposite end of the spectrum from black, but like black, it can work well with just about any other color. White is often associated with purity, cleanliness, and virtue. In the West, white is commonly worn by brides on their wedding day. White is associated with goodness, and angels are often depicted in white.
Brown is associated with the earth, wood, and stone. It’s a completely natural color and a warm neutral. Brown can be associated with dependability and reliability, with steadfastness, and with earthiness. It can also be considered dull.
Beige is somewhat unique in the color spectrum, as it can take on cool or warm tones depending on the colors surrounding it. It has the warmth of brown and the coolness of white, and, like brown, is sometimes seen as dull. It’s a conservative color in most instances, and is usually reserved for backgrounds. It can also symbolize piety.
Ivory and Cream are sophisticated colors, with some of the warmth of brown and a lot of the coolness of white. They’re generally quiet, and can often evoke a sense of history. Ivory is a calm color, with some of the pureness associated with white, though it’s a bit warmer.

“The meanings and impressions of neutral colors are much more affected by the colors that surround them than are warm and cool colors”. Thats why the most universal colors that works on any skin tone are actually earthy/taupe tone colors.

Monochromatic colors

Monochromatic color schemes are made up of different tones, shades and tints within one hue. For example, a monochromatic scheme of the color blue would be the Blue Color Family ranging from the lightest sky blue, to a medium shade of ocean blue, to the darkest navy blue.

These are the simplest color schemes to create, as they’re all taken from the same hue.

Similar to the neutral colors we talked about earlier, we find in the cosmetics industry that the neural colors are the most universal colors make-up artists use for everyday on everyone; in addition, different shades of browns and grays in the monochromatic colors are often created in a variety of texture (matte, shimmer, velvet, cream) to produce a handy eye shadow palette for make-up artists to use.

Everyones favorite Urban Decay uses both neutral and monochromatic colors in their Naked palettes. I think this is one of the reason girls like Naked, Naked 2 and Naked Basics eyeshadow palettes.

Makeup theory: color correction and concealers

9:45 PM

This post is for color correction mostly.

All my life I thought I should use light beige concealer to correct my under eye circles. I used it and there were no effect except yellow color under my eyes and to cover the blue circle I have to put more concealer on it which was very bad.

Later I've found out that I have rosy-pale skin and I need pink or salmon color concealer and that definitely saved my skin from too much product and covered all the blue circles under my eyes.

To conceal all the imperfections you should definitely know its color and which color will cover them even with a small amount of product.
And this is where the simple color wheel takes place.

* Except pale skin and rosy-pale which should be covered with a little different colors.

Complimentary colors is the thing we definitely need.

This wheel shows how many actual skin colors might be in nature and if there is no your skin color doesn't mean you cannot mix two shades to get your color.
