If you have dry skin, applying makeup can be difficult.Makeup that clings to the dry areas of the face makes it look patchy and badly-applied.If you want to apply makeup to dry skin,prime it first.It is important to use products that are specifically formulated for dry skin.Makeup will look flawless even from up close if you prepare your skin and use the right products.
Step 1: You must wash your face.
It's always a good idea to wash your face before putting on makeup.This will give you the perfect canvas for your makeup, as it will leave your skin fresh and ready for anything you put on it.It will wash away any leftover makeup.This will help with the prevention of breakouts.To wash your face, use a gentle face wash.Face washes that are meant for normal or oily skin will be too aggressive and could cause problems.
Step 2: Make your skin soft.
After washing your face, apply a cream to your skin.The area around the nose and between the eyebrows tend to be the driest.It's a good idea to use an extra-hydrating moisturizer for dry skin.The skin doesn't feel greasy if you apply enough Moisturizer so that it gets absorbed by the skin.
Step 3: Put face primer on.
Primer is a base that goes on the skin before applying makeup.Makeup can be applied without getting stuck to dry patches of skin if you use a primer.If you want to apply primer, take a dot of it on your finger and place it in sections of the face.Don't apply too much primer.For small areas like your chin and nose, use one dot, and two for larger areas.
Step 4: Put eye primer on.
Eye primer makes eye makeup blendable.It is tinted to make it look more uniform.If your eyes are dry, they may look red or irritated.Eye primer will keep your eyes hydrated without making them oily.Put one dot of eye primer on each lid.
Step 5: Use chapstick to apply it.
If you have dry skin, your lips may be damaged.Chapped lips make it difficult to apply lipstick or other lip products.One of the most obvious makeup faux pas is patchy lipstick, so make sure to use a layer of chapstick before applying your makeup.
Step 6: Use face makeup that is meant for dry skin.
Make sure you use foundation and concealer for dry skin.It will glide on easier and keep your skin feeling enriched and fresh if you use a foundation meant for dry skin.The right foundation is important.If you think your foundation isn't working for you, it's a good idea to invest in a new one.If your drugstore-quality foundation isn't working for you, go to a high-end makeup store.Tell the salesperson that you are looking for a foundation for dry skin.If you don't find a foundation that works for your skin, sample several and apply them.
Step 7: Liquid foundation can be used as opposed to a powder foundation.
This may be the cause of some of your makeup troubles if you are using powder foundation.Powder foundation is great for people with oily skin because it helps to absorb excess oil.If you have dry skin, using a powder foundation will leave it more dried out than before.The powder on your face will make it look patchy, especially from up close.Purchase a liquid foundation at a drugstore or makeup store.It's important to use a cream concealer as opposed to a stick one.
Step 8: The foundation should be applied.
Pick a part of your face where you want to apply foundation.You can put a small amount of liquid foundation on your finger or face.You can blend the foundation into your skin with a foundation brush.Except for your under eye area and your eyelids, repeat as you please.Your skin may be flaky if you have dry skin.If you want to blend foundation, use a brush as opposed to your fingers.Press the brush lightly.Instead, use a series of repetitive taps that blend in and spread the foundation to the area you are working on.
Step 9: It's a good idea to apply concealer.
If you feel that you need more coverage, use a liquid or cream concealer on your undereye area.A small brush can reach all the areas of the under eye.
Step 10: You can use a setting spray.
Set your makeup with spray instead of powder.Give your face a mist by spraying it from a foot away.Setting spray has a different effect than setting powder.
Step 11: Make sure to apply eye makeup.
Applying eye makeup is usually done with your eyes already primed.It is easier to blend your eyeshadow with the primer in place.If you notice that your eyes are dry, apply liquid liner instead of pencil liner.Cream-based eyeshadows are easier to blend than powders.
Step 12: Liquid blush is good for use.
If your cheeks and cheekbone areas are dry, try a liquid blush.Liquid blush lasts longer and is more heat resistant during hot days.Liquid blush can be spread with a blush brush in small pats.
Step 13: You need to apply your lipstick.
By the time you put on your makeup, your lips may be dry.A thin coat of chapstick is needed.Wait for it to sink in and then apply your lipstick.Long- lasting lipsticks have a drying effect, so try to avoid them.If you decide to use a lipstick that leaves your lips feeling dry, you can put a bit of Vaseline or chapstick on your finger.The drying effect of the lip product you are using will be counteracted by this.
Step 14: It's a good idea to apply a glow to your face.
If you don't like the look of your skin, use a liquid highlighter to give it a fresh look.Use a liquid to highlight the cheekbone.Use your finger in a diagonal along the ridge of your cheekbone.It won't make your skin less dry, but it will give you a fresh and healthy look.
Step 15: It's a good idea to refresh your makeup throughout the day.
You have to check your makeup every couple of hours.If you notice dry patches on your skin, refresh it.First remove any dry skin with a pair of tweezers.Use a patting motion to apply a dot of moisturizer to the dry patches.Your makeup will look less dry and cakey if you use a Moisturizer.It's a good idea to pat the moisturizer in rather than rub it in.Rubbing can remove makeup.
