Make Up For Men

Exfoliate

Wash your face with a gentle exfoliant, and rub slowly in a circular motion with warm water to remove dead skin cells. Rinse & pat, (don’t rub) dry with a soft towel.

Moisturize

Apply moisturizer with a sunscreen that has an SPF of 15 or higher to your face and neck. Allow the moisturizer to absorb into your skin before proceeding to the next step.
Apply liquid base foundation. If you have a lot of area to cover, find a liquid foundation that’s as close as possible to your natural skin tone. Use foundation brush or a cosmetic sponge to apply a light layer all over your face. Note that if you’re going to do this step, it’s best to be clean-shaven – little bits of makeup will really stick out on stubble.

Use concealer

When you’re shopping for concealer, test it on the veins on your inner wrist, and buy the one that covers them the most naturally. I highly recommend Laura Mercier or Make-Up Studio concealers, so light. Here’s how to apply it to your face:

Hide dark circles.

Using small strokes, apply concealer under your lower lashes and between the inner corner of your eyes and your nose. Let it dry halfway, then use your fingers to tap it in.
Conceal blemishes with a small brush by going around the base of the blemish in small strokes, then covering the top. Make sure the edges are blended well.
Lightly load a small brush with loose powder that’s as close as possible to your skin tone. Gently pat the powder over every area where you used concealer. Do not flick the powder around, it wastes your product and also can stain your clothing.

Powder the rest of your face

Use a powder-puff or a KABUKI to apply powder to the areas of your face that tend to get oily. Focus primarily on your T-zone – that is, your forehead, nose and chin. These are the areas that tend to be oiliest in most people. If you have excessive oil I suggest blotting paper (Body Shop – with tea tree oil are fabulous). Rice or Diamond powder are always excellent to control oils, or the Jurlique Citrus Powder are fantastic to ensure a beautiful finish to your skin.

For the adventurous fellows – Try a lick of mascara, and a tiny bit of silver shimmer in the corner of your eyes for a great evening look. Men have fantastic eyelashes, show them off.

Wear lip balm

Choose a clear or neutral-colored lip balm that you can use throughout the day. Not only will it give your lips a smooth appearance, but it will also prevent them from getting chapped. If your lips are extremely dry, when brushing your teeth try buffing your lips with your tooth brush.

Remove your makeup every night before bed

Leaving makeup on overnight is not good for your skin. At the end of the day, wash your face again to remove makeup. Finish by using moisturizer. Use a richer moisturizer at night if you have dry skin.
