Make-up can be your best friend it can also be your worst enemy if you do not have the technique of applying it.
Most people have the notion that putting on so much foundation will make them look better. If you apply too much it gives you that cakey look that draws attention to the wrong areas. A lot of foundation will make your wrinkles look deeper and bigger. It is also advisable that when you are going for a foundation go for the liquid type for it is easier to blend.
Concealer can get heavy and cakey if applied too thickly so first see how much of the dark circles/blemishes/dark spots that the foundation can knock out on its own. Then take a step back and see if you need to go back with a thin layer of concealer directly on the areas. You might be surprised how little you need!
Do not use thick heavy concealer to cover the dark spots under your eyes. A concealer works best when you are hiding those blemishes on your skin however the skin under your eyes is sensitive and cannot handle the weight of a concealer. If you continue using it to hide those dark spots under your eyes, they will only sag and look worse.
Choose where to lay emphasis on. When it comes to applying makeup on your lips and eyes, you need to make a choice on which to flaunt ant which to tone down. If you go for eye shadow, eyeliner and mascara then make that your focal area and put on either nude lipstick or lip-gloss. This is because if you apply makeup on your eyes and dark lipstick it makes you ends up looking like a clown!
