Step1
You should start by finding a lipstick that you love! Try to make sure that it also compliments your skin color. Try finding a darker shade of your natural lip color.
Step2
If your lips are dry, you can apply a little lip balm before applying your lipstick. This will help to soften them up.
Step3
If you are going to be using a lip liner, you can apply that first if you want. Some people do it before, some people do it after. Depends on preference. With a color that matches your lipstick very lightly outline your lips.
Step4
Next you can apply your lipstick. You can either apply it directly from the tube or use a lip brush. Apply it evenly within your lip line, and then blot with a tissue to remove any excess. You can dab a little powder on and apply a second coat if you want.

How to Apply false eyelashes
Step1
Remove false eyelashes from container by lifting one end with tweezers and lifting gently.
Step2
Looking into mirror, hold eyelashes up to the base of your own lashes to see if the ends need trimming. If they are too long, simply cut the end with the shorter lashes. Be careful not to over trim. Most lashes do not need to be trimmed more than 1/2 mm(about 2 lashes).
Step3
Open lash adhesive and dab small beads of glue along the inner lash line. Connect the beads with the tip of the adhesive. Be sure not to use too much! This will result in clumps and longer drying time. Wait for glue to become tacky (about 20-30 seconds).
Step4
Apply lashes to the base of your lashes getting it as flush as possible. Sometimes the tweezers can be useful here to pat down the lashes until glue dries. Adjust as needed before glue fully dries. Allow to air dry approx. 2 minutes.
Step5
Now use black liquid liner starting at the inner corner of lash line and extend out just a bit beyond outer lash line. This line should be as fluid as possible. If you are inexperienced with liquid liner you may use a pencil or cake liner using same technique. The eyeliner over the lash line helps blend the base of your own lashes with the falsies!

How to Apply Blush
Step1
The first thing you will want to do is to take notice of what color your cheeks are when they are flushed. You will want to find a color that is close to that. You can also try to match your blush to the same color family that your lipstick is in.
Step2
Take out your blush brush. Most every blush comes with a tiny little brush. Throw that one away! I suggest buying a nice large blush brush.
Step3
You will want to make sure that that you complete your foundation, eye makeup and powder before applying your blush.
Step4
Dab your brush into your blush, and tap off any extra.
Step5
Now you just need to smile! When you smile the apples of your cheeks are more defined. You can apply a little bit of blush to the apples of your cheeks, then go up your cheekbone towards your hairline in quick short, up-and-down vertical movements.
Step6
If you accidentally apply to much blush, you can apply a little bit of powder over your blush to tone down the color.

How to Apply Bare Minerals Makeup
Step1
Bare Minerals makeup should always be applied in a circular motion to achieve the smoothest finish and the best coverage.
Step2
A Kabuki brush is typically recommended for applying Bare Minerals makeup.
Step3
Bare Minerals makeup experts always, always emphasize the “less is more” approaching when applying bare minerals makeup. In other words, place a certain amount on your makeup brush, and then tap the brush on the edge of the container to shake off the extra amount.
Step4
Bare Minerals makeup can be a tiny bit challenging to learn how to apply at first. It may also take a little practice until you feel you have truly mastered it.
Step5
When applying Bare Minerals makeup be sure to experiment with the different shades of foundation and blush to find the exact right shade and combination of shades for you. Just as it can take a little bit of time to learn how little Bare Minerals makeup you need to feel (and look) fully made up, it can also take a bit of experimenting to find precisely the right shades (or blending of multiple shades) of foundation colors and blush colors.
Step6
Bare Minerals makeup is all natural and great for your skin. If you suffer from acne or rosacea or oily skin and/or various other types of “problem skin,” investing in Bare Minerals (and then paying close attention to the accompanying tutorial) may turn out to be a very good use of your time and money.
