naturally oval than before. It can also help to apply highlights to the chin, to further accentuate this peak.
Block Shape: For those with broad foreheads or strong jaw lines, accents should be placed on the center of the face. This can be accomplished through accents on the cheekbones. Central features are typically softer than the outer region of the face, so their emphasis helps soften the appearance of the entire face. Also, shading should be used liberally on the outer region of the face, with special attention given to the forehead and jaw.
Rectangular Shape: This shape is treated similar to the block shape, with special emphasis given to shade the forehead area. Since it is difficult to diminish the appearance of length on the lower half of the face, the forehead represents the best opportunity. Shading the top of the forehead, as well as choosing a hairstyle that helps diminish the prominence of the top half of the face is vital. Again, highlighting the cheekbones is a good idea for adding width to the facial appearance and to draw natural attention away from the forehead.
Heart or Triangle Shape: Dealing with this facial shape is a two-pronged approach. First, width needs to be created utilizing similar techniques to those used in the rectangular shape scenario. Highlighting cheekbones and using lighter foundation on the outer edges of the face in this area is suggested. Blush is also typically used to further accentuate the middle of the face and to diminish the aesthetic impact of the triangular face's taper. Shading of the forehead can be used, but be careful not to create a rectangular appearance.
Concealing Techniques
Most people consider concealing techniques as an option for concealing blemishes. While this is true, there are a number of methods used for concealing flaws with specific facial parts as well. Since symmetry is the goal, any asymmetrical feature can be assisted with concealing techniques.
Eyes: To conceal the impact of overly round eyes, eye shadow should be extended slightly past the outer corner of the eye. This creates a point, which diminishes a round appearance. This is also a good technique for people with naturally small eyes, as it can give the illusion of size and proportion. Darker eye shadow can be used to soften overly prominent eyes, and conversely, light shadow can be used to help overcome deeper sets.
Brows: For people with rounder faces, high arched brows help give the illusion of length. However, for rectangular or triangle face shapes, this should be avoided consistently. Brows can also be trimmed short on the inner edge to create more space for people with closely set eyes. Similarly, slightly trimming the outer edge can help widely set eyes appear more naturally aligned. For low foreheads, keeping the brow arch low creates a proportioned height with the forehead.
Lips: One of the most focused upon areas of the face, there are a number of tips that can help this important area stand out. For thin lips, using a lip lining pencil to outline the upper and lower lip can help create volume. However, use this sparingly, since too much pencil use can look awkward. Light lipstick also helps in this situation. For the other problem, using the lip liner just inside the lip line can actually create a less full, more proportioned appearance. Soft colors in the corners help drooping lips as well.
Chapter 4- How to Deal with Imperfections and Blemishes When Applying Makeup
Having perfect skin is a blessing and for many of us we simply do not have this luxury. For those of us that have to work harder to obtain balanced and clear skin the first thing to remember is you're not alone. In this chapter, I will give you a few tips and pointers on how to deal with these imperfections and blemishes and how to deal with them when applying makeup.
As mentioned in previous chapters the first thing you want to do before putting on your makeup is to have a clean surface to work with. I have had several problems with my skin; and I found that you don't have to spend too much money on an over the corner soap. Instead, you can buy soap from any local drug store. For me Oil of Olay works wonders. Plus, you also want to make sure that you use a good moisturizer. You will want to make this a daily routine at least once a day.
Cleaning your face at least once a day and moisturizing will help clear your skin and help heal any imperfections and blemishes you may have. Try cleaning your face before you brush your teeth this will definitely help. Also, I would look into adding any additional cleaners to this regiment, but don't ever do it. You want to use the right combination of soap, cleaner, and moisturize, you don't want to rip your skin of its natural glow. For the right combination consult a dermatologist. Having clear skin is indeed a battle, but it is a war that you can win.
The second tip is never pick or try to pop the blemish this will only make things worse. By trying to pop a blemish you can actually do serious damage that can damage the skin and ultimately lead to scarring. Treating the blemish and allowing your pores to breathe is the goal you will want to either try some ice or the cleaning method I mentioned earlier. If these imperfections or blemishes are more intense, then you should consult your doctor or dermatologist.
Now that you have started to solve the problem and begun the war against blemishes you can start to apply makeup in a healthy manner. The next step is to use the right concealer. You don't want to necessarily buy the most expensive one on the market, but you also don't want to buy the cheapest one either. This step may actually take a bit of trial and error to find the right one that fits your skin best. Remember you don't want to get frustrated.
Another tip you should definitely try is using a brush instead of your fingers or hands to blend in your concealer or foundation. By using a brush you will avoid getting any bacteria that may be on your hands and fingers on your face. By blending you will also cover the blemish in a smoother fashion. Another small tip is less more. Don't feel like you need to pour the makeup on your face to cover something up. If you use too much makeup you can actually make things worse by clogging up the pores and making it more difficult to clean.
Another tip is the foundation itself, if you have dry skin; I suggest using a cream based foundation. This is also another tip that can also be a trial and error situation. You may find that you need to try several different brands before finding the right one. I use a cream foundation and find that it's the best for me. Don't feel that because your mother used a brand for years that you have to follow suit. Find the right foundation that is right for you. By using a cream as a pose to a powder foundation you are actually helping your pores breathe easier.
Now it may seem like I'm trying to shy you away from powder completely this is not the case. You can indeed use powder, but try to avoid using powder as your base foundation. You can use powder to give you a healthy glow and shine, the look I'm sure you're going for.
Another tip is to try using liquid eyeliner, in case if you have yet to notice liquid is indeed the theme of this chapter. Using liquid eyeliner will help if you have dry skin. Use these instead of eye pencils to avoid drying out the skin even more.
We have learned that blemishes are a part of our lives, but you can follow these steps to create a beautiful healthy glow to your skin. Remember cleaning and cleansing is extremely important. Using the right product can help reduce and sometimes eliminate imperfections and blemishes. We have also mentioned that you cannot get too stressed or frustrated by these imperfections. This will make things worse. Finally, you've learned that using the right brand of foundation and type of foundation is important as well as the right way to apply these products. Remember there are a lot of methods around regarding how to treat the skin, but using these methods and techniques can help you not only get the skin you want, but apply the right product so you can put your best foot forward. Clear skin and applying makeup can be a battle, but now you have the tools to win the war. I hope these tips help.
