For a perfect complexion
Always moisturize your skin with a suitable treatment before putting on makeup.
Distribute the foundation (whatever its type) by small touches.
To apply make-up in optimal conditions, put yourself in daylight without direct sunlight in front of a mirror large enough to reflect the entire face.
When you use a brush to hide a pimple, don’t forget to disinfect it afterwards.
Be careful if you apply makeup in a room with colored walls, they could distort the perceived color of your makeup.
To choose the right shade of foundation, it must be the same as the skin tone below the chin to avoid demarcations.
The foundation should be stored away from light.
In summer, do not hesitate to put a little mist on your face before you put on make-up to cool off.
Always pat the powder puff on the back of the hand before applying it to the face.
When you apply powder, insist on the T-zone (forehead, nose, chin) which is full of sweat and sebaceous glands (the origin of oily skin).
The more the eye makeup is marked, the more the blush is important because it will bring color between the eyes and the mouth.
The blush should always have a soft delineation.
A little blush on the brow bone will make the eyes look bigger.
In summer, you can replace the blush with sun earth.
To hide complexion flaws and unify it without covering too much, use a BB cream instead.
To avoid applying too much fluid foundation, put it in the center of the sponge and fold it in half so that it absorbs the foundation.
On vacation, if you forgot your blush, use a lipstick of a light shade to make up your cheeks.
When exfoliating, insist on the T-zone and a little less on the dry areas.
In winter, make yourself a moisturizing mask as soon as the skin feels tight. (Re-read our winter beauty tips article )
Never mix two different creams, it is better to alternate according to the seasons or the evolution of the skin.
To always keep a fresh complexion and avoid looking tired, drink plenty of water (a glass of fresh water when you wake up is healthy!)
When applying a revitalizing mask, you must above all take advantage of the break time to relax, the effect will only be beneficial.
Do not skip make-up removal, it is essential every evening.
Remove your make-up with milk if you have dry skin, with make-up remover water if you have combination skin and add a tonic lotion if you have oily skin.
Against pimples, use an oil-free foundation with the mention “non-comedogenic”.
To keep skin flawless for a long time , protect it from the sun with sunscreen.
Do not hesitate to bring a little light to your complexion, whether it is very elaborate or not, with an iridescent shadow or a complexion highlighter.
One day without make-up per week (or every 15 days if you can’t manage it) will let your skin breathe! Do not neglect it, you still have to remember to hydrate it well.
Do not wash your face with too hot water, which may tend to further irritate your skin.
Don’t decide that the foundation isn’t right for you, take the time to try different forms.
The red face after a scrub? Use a soothing water mist to calm the fire.
If your hand was a little too heavy on the blush, make circular movements with a powder puff and place a little translucent powder on top.
A foundation that is too thick? We pass a damp sponge stroke and rework it with a brush until we obtain the perfect substance.
Massage the underside of the eye with a little cream, pressing lightly on dark circles up towards the temples.
Body care
When fatigue sets in, take the time to have a hammam session with your friends, it couldn’t be more rejuvenating!
On party nights, a little glitter oil in the neckline and you’re done!
For an intoxicating and delicate fragrance, spray it behind the ears, on the wrists and in the hair (especially if it is long).
Moisturize your hands in winter, if possible in the evening before going to bed, to be able to put on a thick layer without untimely hand washing reducing the effect.
Against the tightness of the skin in winter, remember to always moisturize the areas that dry out quickly (ankles, elbows, etc.)
Consider slipping a bag spray or a sample of your perfume into your purse so you can recover during the day.
Make up your eyes
To decongest your eyes in the morning and revitalize your eyes, wear a fresh mask every morning.
To improve eye shadow hold, lightly powder your eyes before applying.
Apply eye shadow in small strokes rather than all at once: it’s easier to add more than to remove.
If the shadow is not very pigmented, do not hesitate to slightly moisten the brush to increase the colour.
To give the illusion of having bigger eyes, you can shade the crease of the eyelid.
If the intensity of the eye shadow is too strong, dust a little powder on the eyes, it will soften the shade. And do not hesitate to (re)read our article to find out how to choose your eye makeup palette .
Beware of shiny eyeshadow that accentuates fine lines.
