The face is the mirror of the soul, but … how to reflect our personality and the best version of ourselves if more than half of our face is covered by a mask? And I tell you more, how can we make our skin not suffer with that explosive combination of fabric, sweat and makeup? Things get complicated for us, but don't worry, there are solutions!
Although it seems that makeup is destined to be forgotten in this new normal, nothing could be further from the truth. Makeup is an ally for most of us, since in addition to highlighting our features, it gives us security, so we have looked for a way to continue using it "without suffering". There are ways to put on makeup so that we don't feel our bare skin.
But how? The answer is on Youtube. These are the essential makeup tutorials "with a mask" , write down these tips and let's adapt together to the new times.
TUTORIAL 1: POWER YOUR LOOK
Makeup helps us enhance what we like the most about us. It may well be the skin, the lips and, in mask times, the eyes. If you are going to work, for example, with a mask on for many hours a day, it is not recommended at all to put makeup on the entire face since the skin suffers a lot and the pore with the mixture of product, sweat and friction can become irritated and suffer outbreaks of acne, among other problems.
One solution is the one provided by the 'My Crazy MakeUp' channel, in which your makeup tutorial limited to the area you 'see' is hitting it. The junkies beauty recommend us look as natural as possible emphasizing aesthetic skin care and highlight the eyes .
- In this case, she does use a makeup base all over her face, but very light to even out tone by putting a little more in the forehead area. The key is a good blur to avoid undesirable and unsightly cuts. Before using primer or primer to prepare the skin.
- Of course, do not forget a concealer that corrects and illuminates, in your case the iconic Shape Tate by Tarte so that it covers a lot. Dab some highlighter on the cheekbone.
- With bronzer she marks the eye sockets and the upper area of the forehead.
- Another TRICK: flesh-colored pencil on the water line and eyelash well with curler and mascara for incredible volume.
- The eyeliner, to taste, although to make the eye bigger the ideal is to do it from the middle of the lash line outwards.
- The eyebrows, of course, well defined and sealed.
- A little lip balm to hydrate the lips, fixing spray, and for the streets!
TUTORIAL 2: 'TOTAL FACE' MAKEUP
When we want to put makeup on our entire face, either because we need it for our work or because we are going to a restaurant or a meeting and we know that we will remove the mask at some point, our makeup may end up spoiling. With a mask, friend, forget about having the perfect makeup all day.
In this case, the ideal is to bet on a complete makeup but, be careful, with products that do not transfer and resistant to water (and sweat). It's possible? It is, and it's on YouTube. Among the advantages of this makeup, in addition, is that it will not stain our mask, another of the problems that we all have.
- First tip: as a primer, use a cream with sun protection.
- Use a long-lasting base, in your case the Infallible 24 hours Freshwear by L'Oreal. Little quantity.
- After the base, apply fixing spray and do not apply anything else until it dries. The blogger recommends NYX Matte Finish Setting Spray.
- Blush or coral blush to get a 'sunkissed' effect and a bit of golden powder highlighter to serve as a bronzer.
- Line the lips with a light matte tone, with a non-transferring liner –just define them a bit– and make up with a matte lipstick, for example the indestructible Matte Ink by Maybelline.
- For the eyes: liquid shadow, which last longer, mascara or, as in your case magnetic, and mark the eyebrow a lot.
