HOW TO MAKE-UP ON ASIAN

I. INTRODUCTION
There’s nothing a make-up artist likes better than to work on a clear radiant complexion. Healthy-looking skin just glows and it makes our work look that much better, after all, a smooth picture. Fortunately, most Asian women are blessed with good skin, but it tends to be delicate, which is why it’s important to wear sunscreen every day. It’s also a good idea to develop a skin care regiment that works for you and stick to it. But remember, you have to take very good care of your skin.
For one thing you use only high-quality products cleanser, toners, moisturizers, a gentle exfoliate once a week, and an at-home mask. On the other hand you don’t forgot put eye-gel or eye cream every day in the morning and evening. Sun screen is important too. You also need to drink lots of water, get plenty of rest, and wash your face every night before going to bed no matter how tired you are or how later it is. I think every body loves your skin looks after a vigorous run or a really hard workout .it just glows. It makes healthy skin.
To keep skin in optimum condition, follow this simple procedure:
l Wash your face with a gentle cream cleanser.
l You’ll get the full benefits of your moisturizer if you apply toner first. It helps the ingredients to penetrate the skin more effectively.
l Always apply a treatment (a serum or creamed capsule) before applying your moisturizer.
l Apply moisturizer working it into the throat and neck.
l Use your fingertips to apply eye cream.
l Wash the face, you can apply toner or not.
l Apply a night cream without an SPF.
l Apply an eye cream/gel without an SPF.
Once a week:
l use a mask for your skin type, unlike exfoliates, which slough off dead skin cells, masks are designed to dehydrated dry skin or soak up excess oil and tighten pores. Because oily skin is very rare among Asian women. Formula doesn’t recommend using a clay mask, instead choose a cream based formula containing algae or plant extracts. A good time to apply a mask is while you’re in the bathtub. The heat and team will help the ingredients to penetrate more deeply.
l To remove the mask, soak a wash cloth in tepid water and press it down on the face. Avoid dragging the washcloth over your skin.
II. PREQUISITE FOR MAKE-UP
1. Base/Foundation
Why you need foundation?
1/ To balance and even cut skin tone
2/ To camouflage minor flaws
3/ As a premier to create a canvas o which to apply other color
If your skin is in pretty good shape and you don’t feel that you need foundation, just use a light con-sealer where necessary and dual-finish powder
It’s different between Asian and western people. Most of Asian people always like the color of foundation lighter than her skin tones. And, western people like darker than their skin tones.
Before you even think about applying foundation, make sure your skin is clean. After all, you wouldn’t paint on a dirty canvas, would you? It’s also a good idea to wait a few minutes after moisturizing before you apply you make-up so the foundation ‘stays out’. The most common types are dry, oily, acne-prone, or combination skin. I’ve developed these guidelines to help you make the right choice.
l Liquid: There are two types of liquid foundation: oil-free, intended for oily or acne-prone skin; and oil-based, a good choice for shin that needs a little extra moisture.
l Cream: Available in stick or pancake form. I don’t recommend them because they tend to be a lot heavier than other types of foundation, but mature women or those with very dry skin may do well with them if they don’t overdo it.
l Dual-Finish: May be applied wet (for lighter coverage) or dry (for heavier coverage). They’re also great for touching up your make-up at the end of the day.
l Color Balancers: Available in green, yellow, and violet. I always use green for redness skin (cover for pimple). Green à redness, yellow à freckle, violet à dark circle.
If your skin is oily: choose a water-based formula.
If your skin is dry: choose an oil-based formula.
If your skin is combination skin: choose a water-based formula, or a dual-finish formula and use it dry on oily areas and wet on the rest of the face.
Tips for put foundation:
Dab a little foundation on the inside of your wrist. The skin there most closely matches your natural underlying skin tone.
My rule is: You can never have enough yellow in your foundation, no matter what your ethnicity. Asian women: Avoid pink tones like the plague, you’ll look garish.
I prefer using a sponge to apply foundation because it helps prevent too much being applied. I can also cover more area faster and more evenly than I could with my fingers. Another plus: my sponge lets me blend foundation into areas that are hard to get to, like the hairline, underneath the eyes, over the eyelid, and in the crease. Of the nose of neck ? the area that people typically neglect.
Start your application by applying foundation to the forehead à eyelids à under the lash line (getting as close to the lashes as possible) à blend the foundation along the neck à blend foundation below the jaw line as well.
2. Powder
Power has a couple of different uses. First and foremost, it’s essential for setting your make-up. It’s the very first thing you do after applying foundation. I also use powder to create a softer look when I’m working with an intense, high-pigment cheek color. The trick is to dip your blush into a little loose power first, then into the color. Finally by going back over the face with my powder brush after competing the eyes, cheeks, and lips. I can blend all of the colors together.
Powder is available in different formulas, each of which is designed for a very specific purpose. Use these guidelines to help you know when to use each one.
l Loose Powder: Designed for heavier coverage. Use your brush to deposit powder onto the face, then use your puff to press or pat the powder into the skin for a flawless finish.
l Pressed Powder: Usually available in compact form, it’s a good touchup tool to take the shine off your face.
l Dual-Finish Powder: Use it wet as foundation or dry to provide heavier coverage.
l Matte Powder: Use this when you want a flat finish with no hint of shimmer or shine. Not my first choice for every dry skin.
l Shimmer Powder: Loose powder that adds shimmer or sparkle to the skin. Use a brush, not a puff, to apply. A latex sponge is a great tool for working the powder around the eyes and under the lashes.
l Water Powder: This is a new category of translucent powder that looks dry but goes on wet to create a dewy complexion.
Don’t Forget
1/ Use a brush to apply the powder evenly over the face.
2/ Use a powder puff to press or pat powder into the skin.
3. Color
Asian women can carry off bold, dramatic color in ways that other women can’t.
Color doesn’t have to come on strong. If you’re going out to a nightclub, you can be a little more outrageous. But you can also go with pale or pastel shades of blue, green, pink, purple, or even red. If you’re using color on your eyes, remember to apply the shadows and light technique you might want to place a highlighted shade of pink on you brow bone and a deeper shade of rose on the outer part of the eyelid.
It’s also important to balance your eyes and lips. Most Asian women can get by with wearing heavier eye shadow, but he shade of lipstick you choose will determine the intensity of the overall look. Let’s say you like dark colors but don’t want to wear a nighttime look to the office. The solution is to choose dark shade of lip, gloss instead of a cream of matte lipstick.
Asian eyes tend to be smaller and closer, so yet many Asian women want their eyes to look bigger and farther apart by doing a highlighter on the brow, base and a lighter shade of the eyes shadow at the corner of the eyes.
You will create the illusion that your eyes are bigger and farther apart by applying dark eyes’ shadow in the crease of the eyelid. You’ll actually create the illusion of a fold there.
Powder blushes, gels, and bronzers are a great way to add a little color to your cheeks. The problem is that most women tend to be heavy-handed when it comes to blush. Believe me, this is one instance where less definitely is more. My trick is to hit the blusher brush with translucent powder. Dip it into the blush, shake the excess off, and apply to the cheek. Remember, you can always add color, so start with just a little.
l Apply cheek gel with your fingers by dabbing it along the cheek bones
l Use a latex sponge to blend, blend, blend
Asian women with round aces can define and enhance their cheek bone by applying a little highlighter above the cheek bone, then applying their blush over it. Remember your shadows and light technique.
I like to play up using my shadows and light technique on Asian eyes. By using highlighter on the entire lid, then applying a darker flat tone in the crease. I can create the illusion of a deeper eyelid. Another trick for eyes like these is to use a lighter shade of eyeliner under the lower lashes and heavier shade to line the lid. The idea is to appear to be more open than they really are.
l Choose a darker shade of eye shadow and use a full-head shadow brush to apply eye shadow to the bottom part of the eyelid
l Start at the inner corner of the lid
l Sweep the brush across the lid
l Finish at the outer corner of the eye
l Choose a lighter shade of eye shadow and use a flat-head brush to apply highlights under the brow bone
l Start at the inner corner of eye and work your way out
l Go over your work with the same brush to blend
III. MAKE-UP
1. Natural Make-Up
You can wear the same eye make-up, but change the entire mood simply by changing the color of your lipstick, a classic look that can work day or night because all the colors are fresh and neutral.
I think of natural shades as colors that mirror flesh tones, like peach or coral. These shades also tend to be flat, which can make features recedes. If you mix one of them with a shimmer highlight powder, you can still look natural but create the illusion that your eyes are bigger than they are. Dab a little lighter on the brow and on the inner corner of the lid to make it appear that you have more eyelid.
2. Daytime / Professional
This is a no-nonsense, ‘I mean business’ kind of look. It’s not sexy or smoky, and it’s different from natural, which is almost a see-through look. I think of it as lighter version of a nighttime look. In fact, you could take this look right from the office to a night on the town by darkening up your eye shadow before you go out. My advice is to wear a lighter shade of your favorite color to the office and wear deeper shade at night. Remember highlight technique when working with darker colors to add depth or drama.
3. Nighttime Make-Up
Depending on what kind of mood you’re in, nighttime can mean many things. A girl who’s comfortable in natural make-up will still lean toward that look at night. She’ll put false eyelashes on. Liquid eyeliner is better for young people not n matured woman. She might wear lip-gloss with a little shimmer powder or glitter in it. If you love smoky eyes, you should use pencil instead of powder to line the eyes for night. It’s much more intense. For a little extra kick, try adding a couple of individual false eyelashes at the outer edge of the eyes.
IV. EYE MAKE-UP
l Apply lashes after foundation, brows, and eye shadow.
l Use black eyelash glue so no one will notice where you’re attached the individual lashes.
l A good pair of tweezers is essential for placing each lash exactly where you want it.
l Avoid strip lashes. They look fake and unnatural.
l Always curl your natural lashes first so they’ll match the curl pattern of the false lashes.
l Before affixing individual lashes, apply a light coat of black or dark brown mascara to your natural lashes.
l Make sure the individual lashes lean out in the direction of the outer corner of the lashes. It’s easier to start the application from the outer corner of the top lash line.
l Use wet eyeliner to blend your natural lashes and the false eyelashes together, but make sure the glue has dried before applying eyeliner. Otherwise you’re asking for eyelash disaster.
l Curling lashes is essential for Asian women because it opens up their eyes. To use a standard metal eyelash curler, open the jaws of the curler, insert it over your lashes, press lightly and hold for about ten seconds. Be carefully not to pull your own lashes out when removing the eyelash curler. Sometime you can choose elector eyelash curler.
1. Eyeliner
To apply pencil eyeliner start at the inner corner of the eyesàline underneath the lower lashes in the same wayàcontinue to the outer corner so the two lines meetàthe line should be close to the lashes.
2. Eyebrows
Like hairstyles, brow shapes go in and out of fashion eyebrows should lend balance to the face, and constrain to popular opinion, one size does not fit all. Usually I always follow client’s natural shape to tweezers or shave their eyebrows. I am required to clean up the strays under and up a little bit the brow line to strengthen the shape.
At the end of my project I have last suggest to everybody:
l Make time for yourself do something that makes you happy.
l Set goals start simple to build your confidence then gradually set loftier goals.
l Start a journal, this is a great way to make friends with yourself.
l Learn to forgive holding a grudge inevitably hurts you more than it hurt the person you’re angry with. Anger just makes us mean or keep us down.
Last but not least, I hope everyone stays pretty and in good health forever.
