How To Go From Zero Know-How To Being Your Own Makeup Hero

Deciding on a look is the easiest part. Going from naturally pretty to 'naturally' whatever you want to be is next.

If what you want to be is someone else, that's a problem. With makeup, you can be a more polished, cleaned up version of you.  The result is reinforced by the feeling that you get when you know you look good. The energy and confidence that comes with that, is the real meaning of 'whatever you want to be'...

It's always so exasperating when one woman wants another's eyes, lips, or face so desperately that they spend their last dime trying to get it! 

A little inspiration is okay, but when you feel like you don't like yourself so much that you'll risk botched surgery and financial ruin on changing, its a problem. 

Rather nip the problem in the bud by learning to work with what you have... 

What you have, is going to be the base for your personal image. Your face is just one component of your personal image, but an important one at that. 

Before creating the look that you want, try a little bit of Preparation. Beauty and makeup are very personal pursuits. To be the most beautiful person you can be, it’s best to keep the words of Socrates in mind…

This involves first taking the lines of your face and colors of your skin into consideration. Then all you do is change up your look using different colors and tenchniques. All while keeping these basics in mind.
