If you are looking for guide on how to apply makeup for dummies, you are not alone! Hundreds of women are searching the internet every day to know the right ways of applying makeup.

Let us start by knowing, what you should NEVER do when applying makeup.

• When you are applying a foundation never go for too dark or a too light shade.

• Never try to put heavy makeup just under the eyes.

• Don't make the mistake of not using enough powder to absorb excess oil from your skin.

• Do not choose blush which is too dark.

• Never forget the foundation for eye makeup.

When you are doing makeup for eyes you have to apply the color taking into account your eye color and skin color. You need to use lighter colors in your eye lids while darker hues look brilliant for the eye crease. Next, you need to apply eye shadow followed by mascara which can be black or brown. If you do not wish to get smudges, select the waterproof brands.

If you are a little fussy about your lip makeup, it is good to stick to natural looks. In such a case, just apply lip gloss. If you are adventurous and would love to draw the attention of everyone around you, try and focus on some dramatic shades for your lips. Make your lips glossier with a gentle brush of gloss and be proud to see the results.

Makeup for cheeks is crucial and needs to be done carefully. It is not wise to use any blush which is three shades darker than the tone of your skin. You should start off slowly and very lightly - keep checking how it appears before you start to darken the shade. You do not always have to put in tons of makeup for that perfect look.

When applying makeup you have to ensure that all colors which are being applied are well coordinated and properly blended so that there are no smudges and blots. You do not necessarily have to match the make up of your eyes, nails, clothes and toes all together - rather, if you do so, you will develop a more clownish look. If you feel that you are not able to decide on your makeup color or not able to match it with your skin color, you can apply neutral colors. These colors look best on any type of skin.
