Answer 1

If you're trying to do a natural look, here are my tips:

- First apply on concealer on your eyes, nose, mouth to conceal any redness or darkness you may have [optional depending on your skin]. Then, apply on foundation [also optional] to even out your skin tone and make it look flawless.

- Next, apply on a neutral eyeshadow, like gold or brown on your crease, and blend it well with a crease brush. Line your top lash line only [with either a black or brown eyeliner] for a natural look [the order of eyeshadow and eyeliner could be switched depending on how good you are at apply eyeliner].

- Curl your lashes if desired with a eyelash curler, and apply mascara [what type of mascara you use depends on the texture of your lashes, if it's thick, use a defining mascara, if it's thin, use a volumnizing mascara, etc.] wiggling at the bottom roots and lift up to the tip.

- Apply a natural pink blush on the apples of your cheeks for a healthy looking glow [it's the part of your cheeks that become raised when you smile]. Use a blush brush, start on the center of your cheeks, and blend upward to where your temples are. However, if you already have a natural flush, don't even bother with blush.

- If you are very oily, pat translucent powder on top of your makeup to set the makeup and absorb any oil.

- Lastly, apply on lip gloss starting from the center of your lips and swiping it on the sides.
