In this blog post, we&#8217;ll be exploring the real scientific benefits of wearing makeup, plus tips for applying your favorite cosmetics with an emphasis on proven techniques!<\/p>\n<h2>Makeup tips that scientifically give you the best results<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Invest in good quality makeup products &#8211; Make sure you buy your makeup supplies from reputable, trusted brands that use high-quality ingredients. This will ensure the best results and help to minimize any skin irritation or adverse reactions.<\/li>\n<li>Clean your skin before <a title=\"applying makeup\" href=\"\/adorable-makeup-tutorial\/a-history-of-theatre-makeup\/\">applying makeup<\/a> &#8211; Before applying any makeup, it&#8217;s important to make sure your face is clean and free of dirt and oils. Use a gentle cleanser and warm water to thoroughly wash away any impurities on the surface of your skin.<\/li>\n<li>Choose lighter coverage for natural look &#8211; If you&#8217;re aiming for a more natural look, opt for a light coverage foundation instead of heavy layers of product. This will allow your natural beauty to shine through while still providing a smooth and even canvas for the rest of your makeup application.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-44\" src=\"http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"845\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2.jpg 845w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-300x204.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-768x524.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-395x269.jpg 395w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-204x140.jpg 204w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-249x170.jpg 249w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_2-819x558.jpg 819w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 845px) 100vw, 845px\" \/><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Use primer &#8211; Primer is essential to achieve a flawless finish that will last all day. Not only does it create a barrier between your skin and makeup, but it also helps the makeup blend more easily and stay in place longer.<\/li>\n<li>Set spray &#8211; Set spray is a must if you want your makeup to stay throughout the day without fading or smudging. Look for one that contains ingredients such as glycerin or hyaluronic acid to help keep skin hydrated while protecting against harsh environmental conditions.<\/li>\n<li>Blend well &#8211; Blending is key to achieving flawless makeup results. Use a beauty blender or makeup brush to blend out any harsh lines and ensure that everything is blended seamlessly.<\/li>\n<li>Pay attention to your brows &#8211; Brows can make or break a look, so make sure you take the time to fill them in properly with a good quality eyebrow pencil or powder. Take note of your brow shape and work within the natural arch for the most natural-looking results.<\/li>\n<li>Highlight strategically &#8211; Strategically placed highlighter can do wonders to brighten up your face and highlight certain features such as cheekbones and cupid&#8217;s bow. Opt for liquid or cream highlighter applied with a damp beauty sponge rather than a powder to create an all-over glow.<\/li>\n<li>Use waterproof mascara &#8211; Waterproof mascara is essential for achieving long-lasting results that won&#8217;t smudge or run. Look for formulas specifically designed to be long-wearing and provide the best voluminous, clump-free lashes.<\/li>\n<li>Add an extra layer of protection &#8211; Applying a light dusting of setting powder over your makeup can help set it in place and provide an extra layer of protection against sweat and humidity. This will ensure your look stays put all day without fading or creasing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Makeup techniques that have science behind them<\/h2>\n<p>Most people think of makeup as a purely aesthetic practice, but there is quite a bit of science behind it. From the pigments in eyeshadow to the way foundation is applied, understanding these techniques can help ensure that you look your best every time you put on makeup.<\/p>\n<p>The first step in good makeup application is choosing the right skin type and tone products. Different skin types require different formulas, textures, and shades for optimal results. Oily or combination skin will benefit from mattifying formulas that keep shine at bay throughout the day. Dry skin should opt for hydrating formulas with reflective ingredients to look more luminous and healthy. When selecting the shade range for your foundation or concealer, it&#8217;s important to choose colors that match your skin tone, so they blend in seamlessly.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-45\" src=\"http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3.jpg\" alt=\"makeup application\" width=\"982\" height=\"602\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3.jpg 982w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-300x184.jpg 300w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-768x471.jpg 768w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-395x242.jpg 395w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-120x75.jpg 120w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-249x153.jpg 249w, http:\/\/www.iofthestormoffbroadway.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/Makeup_Techniques_by_Science_3-819x502.jpg 819w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 982px) 100vw, 982px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The next step is understanding the various techniques for applying makeup. For foundation, a <a title=\"brush or beauty blender\" href=\"http:\/\/www.chicandsugar.com\/2019\/09\/beauty-blender-vs-brush-whats-better-for-applying-foundation\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">brush or beauty blender<\/a> can buff and blend the product into the skin for an even finish. The key is to start on the center of your face and work outward in light layers until you reach your desired coverage level. Concealer should only be applied where needed, such as under the eyes or over blemishes. Then use a small brush or beauty blender to blend it out for a seamless look.<\/p>\n<p>Color theory is essential for creating dimension and depth through color combinations and placement when it comes to eyeshadow. Warmer shades like copper, bronze, and gold look great in the inner corner of the eye to add a hint of brightness. Shades like brown and taupe can create depth and shadows on the outer corner. Finally, blending is key for eyeshadow \u2013 use a clean brush to ensure all tones are seamlessly combined for an ultra-flattering look.<\/p>\n<p>These are just some of the makeup techniques that have science behind them \u2013 understanding these tips will help you achieve flawless results every single time!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Makeup isn&#8217;t just about looking good \u2013 it&#8217;s about feeling confident and being your best version of yourself.
