The Ultimate Guide to Achieving Red Carpet Worthy Makeup

Introduction

The red carpet is a magical place where celebrities shine, but it’s also a place where makeup artists work their magic. Here are some tips to help you achieve the same look as your favorite big screen stars.

Preparation

Before you can start your makeup, there are a few things you need to do.

• Prepare Your Skin

To get the most out of your foundation, it’s important to prep and moisturize your skin beforehand. If you’re going for an airbrushed look (which we highly recommend), use a primer before applying any type of foundation or concealer so that they go on smoothly and evenly. Then, apply moisturizer just underneath where the sun would hit during peak hours–this will help prevent any flaking later on when things start getting hot and heavy under those lights!

Be Bright

When you’re getting ready for a big event, it’s important to stand out from the crowd. Achieving red carpet worthy makeup means being bright–and not just in terms of your outfit or jewelry.

Your skin should glow with a healthy rosy flush that complements your eye shadow and lipstick shades perfectly. To achieve this look:

• Highlight – Use highlighter on areas where light naturally hits, such as the tops of cheekbones and bridge of nose (but not too much). This will give them definition without making them look unnatural.
• Blush – Apply blush lightly onto applesides of cheeks using circular motions until they are covered evenly with color; repeat until desired shade is achieved

Use False Lashes

False lashes can be a great way to create a more dramatic look. They’re easy to apply, and once you get the hang of it, they’re reusable. However, false lashes can be messy so be careful when applying them!

Do Not Let Lips Get The Best Of You

Lips are the focal point of your face, and they can be tricky to get right. If you’re looking for a subtle look, there are plenty of options available:

• Lip liner – You can use lip liner as a base for lipstick or gloss. This will give your lips definition and prevent lipstick from bleeding into the creases around your mouth.
• Lip gloss – Gloss is great because it gives shine without being too heavy or drying out lips like some other products do! It also helps to make any stains last longer on top of them so when people see how glossy your luscious lips look at first glance (and then realize there’s no actual glitter), they’ll know that these were just meant for each other!
• Lip balm – This works great as an undercoat before applying any other type of product because it helps even out skin tone while moisturizing at the same time (which always makes me feel better). Plus if I’m going somewhere fancy enough where having chapped lips could ruin someone else’s night too much then having something like this handy means that I won’t need anything else except maybe some mascara since most people won’t notice anything unless they really look closely enough anyway–so why bother taking chances? And besides…”you only live once.”

Keep Your Brow Game Strong

• Use a pencil to fill in your brows.
• Use a brush to apply powder to your brows after filling them in with the pencil, then brush through the hairs with the same brush or another clean one.
• Highlight above each eyebrow (if you have light hair, this step may not be necessary).
• Set with setting gel for long-lasting color and hold. If set properly, this will make them last all day without needing touchups!

Follow these tips to look like a celebrity.

• Use a good foundation that matches your skin tone. When choosing a foundation, it’s best to use one that’s two shades lighter than your actual skin color and then blend it into the rest of your face with a sponge or brush.
• Use concealer under the eyes, around the nose and mouth area as well as any other spots where you want to hide imperfections such as blemishes or redness from acne scars.
• Apply powder over foundation for extra coverage and shine control! Don’t forget about powdering down below too (if applicable).
• Blush on cheeks will give them more definition while highlighting above brows helps define eyes even further! Highlighter can also be used for contouring if desired – just apply along cheekbones with fingers instead of using blush brush because this gives more precise application control over where exactly those highlights should go! 🙂
