8 Common Makeup Mistakes Beginners Make

There is no perfect makeup artist in the world. We all make mistakes, but with every mistake or omission we make in the beauty industry, we learn more to improve the service we do for our clients.

1. Using of Wrong Lighting During Makeup Application

When applying makeup, use appropriate lighting for the type of product you are using. Poor lighting can lead to errors in your application, which can be difficult to correct. It can lead to pixelation and uneven coverage. Incorrect lighting can make your makeup look cakey or heavy. The wrong kind of light can make your skin look dry, dull or even aged.

Here are some tips to avoid this:

  • Start by using a light source close to your face. This will help you better understand the contours of your face.
    Use evenly distributed light on the face. Be aware of the angle at which you apply your makeup.
  • Avoid using light that is too bright or too dim.
  • Be careful not to use too much light.

When choosing the right type of light for your makeup, keep in mind that you should always use natural light whenever possible. It is the most accurate light source and will give you the best results. If you can’t use natural light, try using a bright bulb rather than a dim one.

Additionally, using the wrong type of light can also cause problems. Here are some tips for using lighting when applying your makeup: You should also avoid using artificial light sources such as a lamp or your computer screen. These types of lights can distort the colors of your makeup and make it look different from what it looks like in natural light.

2. Applying Primer/Foundation Before Moisturizing

Moisturizing everyday can make your skin smooth and hydrated. It can reduce the chance of developing extreme dryness or oiliness. Before applying any makeup to your face, make sure that you use moisturizing products to your face to improve the appearance of your skin. 

There are a few key moisturizing techniques that can help you get the most out of your products and ensure healthy, hydrated skin. Applying moisturizer before primer has maximum benefits. It will smoothen skin’s surface for a more even foundation or concealer application and can even help makeup to stay on longer. If you have oily skin, use a moisturizer with Hyaluronic Acid  to help control shine throughout the day. If you have dry skin, use a moisturizing primer to help your moisturizer penetrate better.

Some people choose to apply a primer before moisturizing because they believe it will help the moisturizer last longer. Others use a primer to reduce the appearance of pores and blemishes. But it usually depends on your skin type, the sensitivity of your skin, because we are all not having the same skin type.

3. Applying Too Much Concealer

Concealer is similar to foundation, but it is thicker and hides dark circles, age spots, blemishes, acne and more by hiding pigments and blending them in. It can also be used alone to cover defects or marks in your face. Concealer comes in a variety of colors to match different skin tones, and it can be found in liquid and solid form.

Applying too much concealer can lead to cakey skin and a mask-like appearance. It can also lead to various skin problems. This can cause overproduction of sebum, which in turn causes clogging and loss of elasticity in your skin. It can also make your skin more sensitive to the sun, as well as other elements. Too much concealer can also lead to heavy coverage, which can make you look older and more wrinkled than you actually are.

Too much concealer can also be a problem for both women and men. For women, too much concealer can lead to dark circles under the eyes and a general lack of luminosity. For men, too much concealer can make you look overdone or fake. The best way to avoid this problem is to start with a light layer of concealer and build up as needed. Apply only a small amount, twice daily, to create natural-looking coverage. If you’re using a foundation that’s too light, add concealer before applying. A little goes a long way, so use a light hand when applying. And make sure you blend it well so there are no obvious lines.

Before applying the blush, test it on the back of your hand to see how warm the color becomes. Apply blush sparingly to avoid making your skin look like it’s about to break out. To avoid looking overdone, use blush sparingly and apply it naturally. To create the perfect flush, start with your cheeks slightly rosy and gradually add blush until you achieve your desired color.

If you have fair skin, use a light pink or peach blush. If you have darker skin, use a medium or dark peach blush. The wrong blush color can make you look sickly instead of healthy and glowing.

Blush applications can be tricky. You don’t want to apply too much, but you also want to make sure the color suits your skin tone. You can talk to the professional makeup artist and learn some hacks and tips from them.

 

8. Applying Lipstick Before Prepping the Lips

Lipstick is a popular beauty product that people use to beautify their lips. However, many people don’t know that lipstick can also be used to prep lips before applying other makeup products. Prepping your lips before applying lipstick is actually a good way to mask any dryness or flaking on the surface of the skin of your lips. It also helps the lipstick last longer. To do this, simply put a thin layer of lip balm or gloss on your lips and then apply your lipstick. This will help create a smooth surface for the lipstick to cling to and also add some extra moisture.
