Makeup Mistakes To Avoid: Tips From A Professional Makeup Artist
1. Skin Preparation Neglect
And the best foundation isn't going to sit right without some proper skin prep. Most people forget that makeup prep-the first step is cleansing and moisturizing. Clean and lately hydrated skin not only smooths out the products blended but also helps to keep it longer. Cleansed and moisturized skin creates a beautiful canvas before application.
2. Using the Wrong Foundation Shade
The most common problem that the clients have with foundation is picking a foundation that's just the wrong tone. A mismatch can easily make one's skin look ashy or orange under different lighting conditions. The key is to test foundation on your jawline rather than your wrist-your face and neck are better color indicators. For this, professional Makeup Artist Sydney Siu Siu recommends matching your shade in natural daylight for a seamless finish for red carpet and bridal look.
3. Over Contouring and Highlighting
The idea of contouring is to emphasize the natural feature but not to hide it overall. This is where most makeup lovers fail using colors much darker than their natural skin tones or apply them in the form of sharp lines. Just like light and too much highlight result in an oily or reflective look. The goal is to create balance, with the subtle contour shades slightly mimicking some natural shadows and with highlighter applied on some high points of the face, such as the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose.
4. Disregarding Eyebrow Symmetry
Your brows frame your entire face, and over-tweezing or filling too heavily can distort that natural proportion in an instant. With her award-winning expertise in eyebrow design, Siu Siu points out that brows should complement your face shape and natural hair color; be done with soft, feathered strokes to mimic real hair; and hold a balanced look, naturally.
5. Using Too Much Powder
Powder does set makeup, but if put on too liberally, it can accentuate the fine lines and eventually give the makeup a cakey texture. Dust on translucent powder lightly in areas that tend to shine-just the T-zone area. Siu Siu and her professional team of Makeup Artist Sydney usually adopt a less-is-best approach when it comes to powdering for a fresh luminous lasting result.
6. Upsetting Color Harmony
But with the wrong undertone of eyeshadow or lipstick, the whole look gets mismatched. Warm tones-peach, coral, bronze-go with golden tones, and cool tones go with pink or neutral ones: rose, mauve, taupe. A professional Makeup Artist Sydney knows just how color theory interlinks with your skin to find combinations that will work best in making one look pretty.
7. Not Cleaning Your Tools
Dirty brushes and sponges can make application a quality issue, and they could also lead to bad skin. Cleaning everything routinely will result in smoother blending and hygienic results. A clean brush makes all the difference, as stressed by professionals like Siu Siu, when achieving a polished, professional finish.
