Five makeup mistakes and how to fix them

Putting on makeup is an art and at one time or another, we have all made a mistake, sometimes due to rushing and sometimes due to ignorance. Today we show you the five most common makeup mistakes and how not to make them again. Take note, it’s simple!

1. Use a darker foundation to appear more brunette

By choosing a darker tone than we need, we will only make our makeup look more artificial. It is possible that, without looking for this effect, it has also happened to you that, after buying your makeup base, you realized that it was not your tone. Because? Surely you have tried the tone on your hand, as usual, but it is not a good place to do it, because our hand does not usually have the same tone as our face.

Solution: We recommend you try your foundation on the jaw area and choose the shade that best blends with your natural tone.

2. Too much concealer in dark circles

If you make that mistake, you will get a “panda bear effect” but in reverse, and with that you only make the possible bags look much more prominent.

Solution: Remember that with three small touches, you will have enough product to cover dark circles and achieve a good result in your makeup.

3. Irregular, too thick, and asymmetrical eyeliner

Getting a symmetrical and beautiful tail is one of the most difficult steps.

Solution: now you can do it easily with the help of the template that some profilers incorporate. If you don’t have the template, go little by little, first very close to the lashes, to make it a little thicker and gradually lengthen the line. Do not pull the skin of the eyelid too much, because when you let it go, steps may appear. Try to fix the skin with the help of your fingers.

4. Going with the highlighter

If you don’t want to look like a Christmas ball, use just the right amount of highlighter.

Solution: in this case, it is not a question of templates but of tino when collecting the quantity of product. In this case, go from less to more to be able to balance your result.

5. Excess product on the lips

Finally, another common mistake we make when applying makeup to our lips. If you apply too much, it will surely run out of profile, make your lips look unappetizing, leave streaks everywhere, and easily crack.  

Solution: it is better to apply a little product to respect the edges of our lips than to leave the natural contour.
