Hi I’m Mindy Shear for Mindy Shear make-up, I’ve created my own mineral based make-up line, I’m here to show you on Watch Mojo how to create the perfect look before going back to college. For skin care I have a brightening essence, it’s not heavy, it’s not cake-y, it’s not wavy, I’m going to re-apply over the bit onto my hands, you do not need much, rub it within your fingers, and you apply it always in an upward motion. I have a brightening eye gel, great for the morning, it’s refreshing, it feels good, it takes away puffiness and it brightens up the dark circles under the eyes. This is one of my magic wands, it is a concealer that is not too oily; what I do I’m doing it on somebody else, I use this for hygiene reasons of course, I put it on my hand first and brush it with the products and I apply directly. This gives you brightness, and it also helps as an eye shadow base, so that your eyes would last longer. Choosing the right foundation could be very tricky; I suggest that if you have oily skin to use more of the powder foundation; if you use anything liquid make sure it’s oil-free. If you have pink tone I your skin, you might want to cut that redness and that pinkness with using more of the yellow based tone, and if you have the yellow, you want to add some more pink, because otherwise you’d look to subtle and tired.
What I like to do for more natural look is to use the brush ; you basically gently apply your brush into the foundation and you start applying it, if you’re finding that you need to go into the neck area, that’s an indication that your foundation is too dark. I’m just going to walk around my counter and choose the right colors that are going to be best with here for you.
Of course we want to do a very natural look because you don’t want to look heavily made-up to go to class. I like so do lips, lips gives 60% of the color to your face, so right away you’re going to feel awake and refreshed. I like to use a lip pencil; very lightly you outline your natural lip line. Next step is gloss, I’m using very soft colored gloss; once the lips is done, don’t go like that, you’re going to take the gloss away and the whole of that of the lip you just want to achieve. Then I go to the blush, you dab a little bit onto your brush, to take the excess off, you apply it a little bit under your cheek bone and on blending slightly. Keeping many people forget their eye brows, they don’t realize how it shapes and frames the face. I dab a little bit of the product onto the brush, you need very little and we fill in and shape the brows; eyes for eye shadows, the key is having the right tools. Without the right brushes, you end up not being able to get the right brow. This is a blending brush, and this is when I take the lightest color and I apply it all over the lid; to keep it natural, I’m using very neutral tones and I go into the lower lid going in an upper motion. I like to take the wide angle brush again, and I go into a little bit of the darker color, and that just goes on your inner lid, giving the highlight. Next I add the eyeliner; I don’t like to use the black or a brown because they’re either too boring or too harsh. So I have a color that’s more of a cactus green, I feather the pencil right at the lash line, I like to add a little bit of a pencil on the top, very close to lash line. I recommend taking the extra second if you could do it, I’m just applying swam ways here with mascara, the lash thick needs to your lashes, you see the difference right away. The mascara is cheap, once you wash thickeners on, you take black mascara and that’s the only color I use; you go over a little bit and on the top of the lashes and then you bring it back up. Water proofs does not wash off, it’s very difficult to use. You’re better off with the water-resist mascara then waterproof mascara. For touch-ups, this is the ultimate, you keep this in your purse, it’s all-in-one, you have the products inside and have them brush, it’s a very light coverage, you can apply this all day, it doesn’t get heavy, it doesn’t layer on as you go, just take the brush, little bit under the cheek bones, over the cheek bones, it just refreshes everything and wakes you up.
