Makeup for every skin type
Different skin tones as well as skins with varying textures and oiliness need to be tailored to these specific characteristics for the end result to be natural.
With that in mind, here are some tips from makeup artist Ly Amorim, from Jacques Janine salon, to make up each skin perfectly respecting its features and characteristics, in order to value the best of each woman and not change or hide their uniqueness.
Brunette
For those who have naturally tanned or sun-soaked skin and dark hair, it is important to pay attention to the difference in skin tone during the summer, and invest a lot in sunscreen. In some cases, making foundation blends can be a good way to get the right color of your skin all year long.
Base: Remember that the choice of base is related to the lap and the ideal is to have your lap tone and one more tone, or even a bronzer for when we get a? Corzinha? become more natural? says the pro. Thus, for those who are dark and often sunbathe or tan easily, the ideal is to have two bases to never err in color, especially in summer. Brunettes generally have yellowish-bottomed skin, so it is worth checking the background tone at the time of choice.
Blush: For blush, choices like coral, terracotta and mauve are interesting. Even the bronzer can act as a blush for night makeup.
clear
Those with fair skin and light or dark hair need to be very careful when choosing bases, because in Brazil it is also difficult to find them in light tones.
Base: Here, skin products are usually yellowish-deep, which does not work for those with the pinkest skin. So you need to pay attention to this point when choosing. Imported products often have more choices in light tones and a pink background.
Blush: Shades such as peach, light pink and coral are ideal for light skin, but one should avoid weighing the hand at the time of application so that the face is not too marked. Remembering that pink tones make the air more romantic and youthful, while shades like peach and coral make the look more sensual and adult.
Clara with freckles (redheads)
Light freckled skins should be well cared for with sunblock daily. When it comes to makeup, avoid covering your freckles, which are the natural beauty of your skin.
Base: Choose medium to low coverage bases to let your skin look natural. Pink backgrounds and warm tones are ideal for this type of skin.
Blush: Look for shades that resemble your skin tone and lighten it, such as light coral and peach blushes.
Black
Black women may have a little difficulty finding the right base tone, as the Brazilian beauty market unfortunately still offers few dark tone options. Nevertheless, don't be intimidated and throw yourself in makeup!
Base: When choosing the base, it is best to opt for one with dark shades and yellowish background or wet earth tone.Are there bases with a grayish bottom that end up leaving an artificial look and removing the glow of the skin? guides the professional. The same care with gray tones should be taken with regard to concealer.
Blush: Wine, orange, reddish, bronzer and dark coral shades can be used, always respecting your preferences and what you think looks good on your skin.
Asian
For Asians, the tip of makeup artist Ly Amorim is to bet on the eyeliner outside the waterline to open the eye and highlight it.
Base: ? For the base should be used light and yellowish tones? says the expert.
Blush: According to the makeup artist, it is worth betting in pink tones to the cheeks.
Mature
Ly Amorim reveals that in mature skin, it is recommended to avoid excess product. The use of shimmering products can highlight small expression lines, so it is suggested to use blushes and opaque shadows. Dark and neutral smoky eyes are ideal for mature skin.
Base: • Leave the base with a natural effect and use little dust (only in the oily areas). Illuminator is not necessary because the skin already has its natural glow ?, advises the professional.
Blush: Blushes may vary according to mature skin tone, but it is ideal to use more opaque than shiny blushes to avoid highlighting the lines.

Makeup for every eye type
Each eye shape must be tailored to its features so that its beauty is enhanced and never hidden behind inappropriate techniques. Then, the makeup artist Anne Trentin, from Jacques Janine salon (RJ), gives all the secrets to make up your eye in order to enhance its shape. See also suggested makeup tutorials for each eye type.
Almond eyes
“In that case, the eyes have more symmetry, so what will designate what kind of make up will be used on occasion. From a fresh make up to a smokey eyes will look good here! Any technique can be used, blur all or only the outer corner, or not make the water line, in which case all options will be fine.
Drooping eyes
Apply light eye shadow (a shade below skin tone) across the eyelid, draw a pencil or eyeliner stroke, pulling toward the corner of the eyebrow and always smudge in that direction. Care must be taken here to begin tracing from the middle to the outer corner. Then apply mascara to the eyelashes and reapply several layers only on the outer corner? Pushing? the lashes up. A little illuminator under the eyebrows also helps to open the eye.
Prominent eyes (bulging)
In this type of look it is indicated to use dark colors, as it will give more depth to the look. It is ideal to concave a little above what it really is to be able to? Hide? a little bit and always pull the smoky to the side. Here you can use and abuse the black line in the water line and smudge it from the middle to the outside corner making the junction with the one above.
Chubby Eyelid Eyes
• In this type of eye, care should be taken with the lower part when using the concealer. The concealer should be in the tone of the skin, not lighter, and on the marking line use a lighter shade and smudge the concealer in order to use the light and shadow technique and disguise that area. In the eyes it is also better not to use black pencil on the waterline to not draw more attention to this region. Making a fresher make will look healthy and disguise the bags. In the case of drooping eyelids the smudged outer corner should slightly exceed the concave line, making a? New concave? for makeup to appear and give the effect of a more "open" eye. Earthy tones will be the best option to make the smoky. Since they won't make the look heavy.
Deep eyes
? The most important thing here is not to mark the concave, since it already has the well-marked concave. Then the smudge will be more to the side, and on the eyelid the shadow chosen should be clear. It is important to avoid dark shadows, because who has this type of eye tends to have dark circles too, so dark shadow only in the outer corner.Tip: Do not use black pencil on the waterline and do not mascara the lower lashes. The pencil should only be passed in the lower outer corner to make the junction with the upper one.
Close eyes (unlike almonds)
Again the emphasis will be given to the outside corner, making the smoky or outlined kitten pulling to the outside. Inside, use lighter shades of shadow and also a light spot or beige pencil (for those who like) right in the inner corner near the nose. This will broaden the look and give the feeling of balance to the face.
7 Makeup Techniques to Learn and Practice
The techniques are there to increase the possibilities of different looks with each makeup, so you can innovate whenever you prefer by combining different colors and strokes. Following are the tips from makeup artist Carla Mariano on each of the main makeup techniques used today and see in the tutorials how to apply them yourself.
1. Dark smoky eyeshadow
It is the technique where there are no markings or divisions between the shadow colors applied to the eyelid. A nice tip is always to use soft / soft brushes and preferably with natural bristles making circular movements ?, directs the makeup artist. In smoky, the more natural the color gradient becomes, the better. So do not save and smoke enough. Just be careful not to confuse the word blur with smoke.
2. Cut crease eyeshadow
According to the professional, this technique is characterized precisely by the marking that is evident in the concave eyes giving a more dramatic effect. She adds that to perform this technique a good tip is to use a concealer to make the concave marking very well. The concealer creates an exact division between the shadow of the concave and the movable eyelid.
3. Kitty Style Eyeliner
“Surely an eye with that perfect outline draws everyone's attention a lot. Are there numerous types of outlines, some more geometric, some more in keeping with the natural shape of the eyes? but overall does everyone give that striking effect to the look? says the makeup artist.
? The tip I give to make a perfect outline is: a lot of training! That's right. The most important is the practice, especially when we do it in our own eye. But using a good eyeliner is also fundamental ?, clarifies.
4. False Eyelashes
“I dare say that false eyelashes in social makeup represent 40% of the effect we can have on the look. Nowadays it is very rare who doesn't use false eyelashes when doing a make up. They further highlight the eyes and enhance the end result.
She gives the tips for those who want to adhere to the practice: • to apply false eyelashes more easily the tip is to apply a good quality eyelash glue, wait a minute for this glue to dry and then put very close to the eyelash root so that there is no vague space between the root of your eyelashes and that of the false eyelashes. Another very important thing is to measure the false eyelashes to suit the size of your eye.
5. Natural Effect Eyebrow Filling
? The filling of the eyebrows is indispensable for the completion of a beautiful makeup since it is considered the frame of our eyes and face. When we fill in, we can disguise various flaws and imperfections with a supernatural effect.
She advises that you should always use opaque shadows with a beveled brush. • Always use a shade lighter than the root of your hair so that the eyebrow does not turn dark and thus does not have a “spotted face”.
6. Facial Contour
? The facial contour is a fever! And no wonder, since the results we get with this technique are wonderful. We can make the outline with pasty makeup and also powder. Does it all depend on the intensity we want to achieve? says the makeup artist.
The tip I can give is simple. Everything we want to hide or shrink we make the dark mark on top and everything we want to highlight or highlight we apply the light product. So there is no mistake? Warns the professional.
7. Strobing
According to the makeup artist, this technique is characterized by making the makeup overlit. The illuminator is applied to the top of the nose, the top of the cheekbones, just below the eyebrows, the outline of the lips and so on. The effect is wonderful.
? In this technique the tip I give is: beware of the hype! Remember, you only see the true effect of the illuminator when the light is on it and it reflects it. So it is always good to apply the illuminator in a place where the lighting is good ?, ends.
13 Common Makeup Mistakes You Can Avoid
In makeup, much of what you do is the result of our preferences and knowledge. And there are techniques that improve over time and we do not even know and so we always do the same thing, day after day. So it's cool to check out some of these customs and re-evaluate the way you put on makeup for everyday life or for special events. After all, learning never hurts.
1.Use eyeliner in place of eyebrow pencil. The eyeliner is usually black or very dark graphite and gives an artificial effect to the eyebrow. To correct flaws, use a shade that is similar to the color of your natural eyebrow or an eyebrow pencil and don't apply too much.
2. Buy base and concealer in the wrong color. Test the concealer and foundation on your face and neck when buying and see if the product is gone? on your skin. Be careful not to buy much lighter than your skin or darker. It is also valid to pay attention to shades if your skin is more pinkish, yellowish and so on. If you are tanned, it is best to have the base of your face match the tone of your skin on the body, so in summer it is common to have a slightly darker foundation.
3. Dust too much and forget about the moisturizer. Moisturizing the skin is very important to maintain the natural and beautiful look in the make. If you do not moisturize and still apply a lot of dust on top, the effect gets heavy and still highlights the expression lines. Therefore, always moisturize the skin before make up and dust only on the oilier areas such as forehead and nose.
4. Leave the eyelashes too sticky with mascara. When applying the eyelash mask take care not to leave them too sticky and full of pellets of the product. Try to favor a more natural look by combing your eyelashes normally instead of doing the famous? Zigzag? when applying the product. Letting the eyelashes stick a little bit is ideal, but avoid sticking them too much to just 5 thick strands. Just stick enough to stay natural.
5. Forget about moisturizing the lips. Avoid applying lipstick (especially dry and matte) on dry or cracked lips, as the result is a coarse effect and you may still end up damaging your lips. Bet on the lip balms at least 10 minutes before putting on your makeup.
6. Not smoky enough. Smudge is the keyword to make your makeup professional. Do not be fooled by the desire to leave everything very marked. To achieve a professional makeup effect, do not skimp on smoky. Smudge the contours, smear the eyeliner, smudge the shadows very well, especially those that go after the concave. Smoke is success!
7. Weigh the hand in the blush. This? Mistake? can often be intentional. If you like blush, that's fine, but if you want a more professionally finished make-up, it is best to apply just enough and in the right area: the cheekbones. Try not to confuse bronzer with blush and do not apply it too high up above the apples. By day, the ideal is to use dull blush, at night you can play in the light!
8. Apply crooked dark lipstick. To avoid this problem that is so evident in photos, use a brush to apply lipstick and then fill using the lipstick bullet. Applying dark lipstick like vermilion or wine directly without the aid of a brush or without a lip liner before is a sure chance to leave your mouth with a few crooked strokes.
9. Wear expired makeup. It may seem harmless, but that one-year-old makeup can be a veritable fungal colony ready to damage your skin. If you care about the health of your skin and want to keep it beautiful, throw away expired makes and avoid buying too many products, so you have no chance of letting them win before you use them.
10. Do not use an intermediate shade on the smoky black. Usually black eyeshadows are difficult to smudge and do not confer a natural effect directly on the skin. And that is why professional makeup artists always apply a layer of brown eye shadow after the concave, between the eyebrow light and the moving eyelid where the largest concentration of black eye shadow will be. Believe me, using this middle shadow makes a lot of difference and this step should not be skipped over the dark smoky ones.
11. Apply concealer before foundation. It may even be a matter of preference, but if you apply the base first, you will only use concealer on points that the base has not covered. On the other hand, if you apply concealer first, you risk overdoing it too much unnecessarily. When using concealer to conceal dark circles, apply it in an inverted triangle shape (not moon shape), so you do not run the risk of having dark circles apparent throughout the day.
12. Never wash the brushes. This mistake is very common and can make your skin oily, as well as impair the finish of make. Wash your brushes whenever possible, especially those you use with liquid products.
13. Only use eyeliner on waterline. The eyeliner in this region narrows the eyes and can have a weird overall effect especially if you are not all over your face. If you want to opt for something simple, just slightly outline the upper lashes, apply mascara and a lipstick. It's better than just applying a black pencil and lipstick. Try it and prove it.
