How to Apply Makeup for Men

How to Apply Makeup for Men I’m here today to talk about a topic that is so taboo and people think that it’s just not right or whatever but I think it’s a very, very good thing which is make-up for men. I am a huge fan, I wear it everyday and nobody has ever noticed that I was wearing make-up. So I want to share a little bit of you know my tricks with you guys so you look as fabulous as me. So this is a fresh look and this is good for you know just your everyday thing to work, to just to go anywhere looking like you know you’re fresh and rested and healthy. So I’m going to show you guys what are the products that I use for this look and there’s not so many looks that you can do for men in terms of make-up but this is definitely a good one and very, very discrete. So I use first— first you wash your face, of course with a non-soap and non-abrasive facial cleanser and then you apply moisturizer, I my case I’m applying a tinted moisturizer with SPF 50. I really like this one and I like the fact that it has a tint to it because it evens out your skin color and it just helps you with you know the application of the foundation which comes later. So something like this is good and you just put on top of your fingers and then you just spread it a little bit on your knows and your cheeks, here, a little bit on your neck, not down, you’re also going to get your shirt or your clothes dirty and make sure you spread it and you evenly or else you’re going to end up looking like Michael Jackson, that’s not cute that’s not a look that we are going to follow we’re going to here fabulous and not dreadful. Alright so just by applying the tinted moisturizer you can see that my skin it’s already a little more even now the tone and it gives already a little bit of a glow so now I will take my bottle of concealer where was that, excuse me. Concealer, this one is from Biotherm it’s called forget it. I love this concealer because it is liquid and it’s very man friendly because it’s very easy to apply. You know so first you use this to cover any problem areas like spots, sun damage, dark circles for men. This is a big problem for men which is you know the surface under your eyes. So for that you would like to lower your head a little bit your eyes you know so you can see the circles. I don’t see any circles on my eyes but whatever. But if you see on you r eyes you just cover them but let’s just pretend I have circles and you just put a dot there and a dot there and then you just spread it like so. Make sure that you keep it under your eye. Don’t go all over the place with it and just tap it in. Tap it in; tap it in just to blend it. There you go so same thing on the other eye don’t forget it. Remember we don’t want to look crazy. We want to look fabulous. Okay, so that’s my concealer for under my eyes and you can use that to cover you know if you have pimples, if you have any kind of blemishes or dark spots or sun damage you can use it to cover everything. Concealer is your friend. After, that I take, I use this amazing product. It’s something new. Not a lot of people use it but it’s very good for men. It’s a foundation. It’s a mineral powder foundation. It’s a totally natural. It is very beneficial for your skin. You know a lot of times people have allergies or they break out with make-up and this is very natural you cannot get more natural than this. And especially for a man this is very good because it covers the pores, big pores and also sucks in oil which is a big problem for men so this is again Laura Mercier. Other makers produce, this is a pure honey that’s the color for my skin. You should look at the center of your face and your neck. That should be your reference for what is the color for your foundation. So since it comes in a powder you shake it like so and then you use the lids to pickup your product. In this case I have a little bit to watch and just to move back and I will say that this much that’s a little too much. It’s good. I know it sounds a little bit— I know it looks like a lot but it really isn’t because it’s so fine this foundation that it looks like a lot but it isn’t. I use this brush which is special for mineral powder foundations because it has two hairs. As you can see has a black and white one. The black is to apply the foundation and the white one is to blend it and to polish it and give it a glow a nice glow look and that’s one of the benefits of the mineral powder foundation but you can use you know the old school you know shaving cream brush from your grandpa it works just as well. I just use this because I’m— Anyway you just swirl a bit like so swirl it, swirl it, swirl it then you tap it to take off the excess and then you just apply all around your face beginning on the outside and then going inside so you start to go like that and then you start on the middle now all over your nose, your eyes and again this is natural so you really don’t have to worry about it so much about irritation or not or a not little bit— just like until here I would say or else you’re going to get your clothes dirty and that’s not cute, that’s really not cute. Since this is— I usually only use this once but since to show the fact I’m going to do it once more so to make it a little heavier since this is a video so I’m going to do one more time just for the fuck of it just to give you a good idea of what I’m talking about. So now you take with the white hairs you make circle motions softly what are you doing, you’re just spreading and polishing your face with the mineral powder and to give this glow. You see this glow natural like a healthy glow. Yeah you’re wondering why Jennifer Lopez glow so much well she wears mineral powder foundations so there’s no reason why you shouldn’t glow too. Now where is it? Where— oh here, this is the more controversial part of the make-up process is my bright red prostitute lipstick. I use this to give my self a little bit of color on the high areas of my face. The areas where you normally would get a little bit of sunburn, just a little, very subtle because or else if you put too much they’re going to see— “Oh he’s wearing make up, he’s wearing make up.” And that’s not what you’re looking for, right? We want very subtle and then on the other side just a little bit of color and the other side of the face as well, you can see, and a little bit on your nose, on the high part of your nose and then after that you just once again with a brush blend it all in just as finishing touch. So there you go it’s a very, very subtle makeup for men and I hope you guys like it and you guys use it and to the next tutorial and don’t forget to keep it up, bye-bye.
