Steps of five minute make-up

• First plan your make-up colors to complement your clothes and cosmetics that you are going to wear.
• Apply foundation sparingly and blend. Use foundation brush if you want more coverage without sponge marks. So no one will think that you have put on foundation.
• Apply blush and blend it in. Powder blushes are easiest to apply.
• Apply your favorite eye shadow lightly. Apply it all over your eyes for better coverage.
• Apply eyeliner depending on your eye shape. As we have limited time for make-up, emphasis only on the outer corners.
• Use mascara to highlight to your eyelashes. One coat of mascara is enough. Many people like to apply it on top lashes.
• Define your eye brows using brow pencil. If you do it quickly, more impact will be seen on your face. Apply powder with a brush using sharp brow pencil.
• Since you have only five minutes for make-up, just give a touch of powder blush. The purpose to do so is to sweep it on using a big blusher brush.
• Take loose, translucent face powder sparingly onto a velour puff. Remove the excess powder by dabbing it on your hand. Now press it over the whole of your face. It will help to set your make-up and to prevent shine.
• To get the texture and color of your own lips, use translucent lipsticks. It will give the most natural look to your lips. And the best thing is it is fastest and easy to apply. You can go for lip colored shades as it does not take much time to apply and less precision is required.
