FOUNDATION APPLICATION

• Foundation is not meant to add color to your skin. Must match exact. Color comes from blush, bronzer, eye shadows, lipsticks.

• Apply with small kabuki brush

• Swirl, Tap off, Apply – Small circles all over the face working outside to inside

CONCEALER

• Apply foundation with small brush

• Hide flaws – blemishes, scars, birthmarks, under eye circles (don’t go beyond pupils/too far), inside of eyes in half moon shape

BRONZER

• Apply with angled blush brush

• Apply across check bone, temples, bridge of nose, chin to add color and warmth to skin tone

• Adds hint of color, warmth and healthy glow to skin

BLUSH

• Apply very small amount with angled blush brush to apple of cheeks lightly

 FINISHING POWDER

• Apply with large round brush

• Reduces large pores, eliminates shine, gives airbrush look

• Apply lightly dusting over face to set the makeup

EYE APPLICATION

          Lisa Liddiards’s “7” Eye Technique

• BASE EYE COLOR: Apply small round brush. Apply eye shadow color (same color as eye lid skin tone) to cover entire lid, eye lashes and under lower lash to hide discoloration.

• CREASE: Apply with small round crease brush. Apply darkest eye shadow color to the crease making a 7 to outer corner of eyes. Start at crease equal to the pupil, stroke up/out to the lash line, drag down to connect with outer lash line. Make 7 prevents droopy eye and lifts.

• CREASE OVERLAY: Apply with small round brush. Apply medium eye shadow color to soften crease

• LID – Apply small round brush. Apply lightest eye shadow color to the inside half of lid. Start at the pupil, brushing in towards nose.

• HIGHLIGHT BROW BONE: Highlight brow bone with lightest eye shadow color under brow and connect to crease to blend together.

• STARLIGHT EFFECT: Apply with small round brush. Using very light sparkle or frost eye shadow color in a vertical line at the very middle of eyelid and blend lightly

• INNER CORNER – Apply small dot inside inner corner of each eye

• BLEND: Blend all shadows together if needed

EYE LINER

• Apply with lip brush

• Apply eye shadow over eye pencil. Flip up at end

Apply dry or get your brush wet and apply your eye shadow as a liquid liner

MASCARA

• Apply with disposable mascara brush – No double dipping.

• Apply mascara to top first, thicker application on outer corner lashes. Apply what’s left on brush to lower lashes

• Can apply black eye shadow to bottom lashes lightly if desired

LIPS

 LIPSTICK

• Use disposable spatula to ‘chunk off’ tiny bit of lipstick and give to each guest on back of hand

• Apply with lip brush

LIP GLOSS

• Use q-tip and dip in container and give to each guest

• Apply with lip brush

• Use alone or over lipstick. Great for highlighting lips

Remember, you can use your blush and eye shadows as lip colors and vice versa.  I use my eye shadows for lip color and have a blast.  Anything goes with Mineral Makeup. 

See you on the inside!
