The delicate balance emits a confident aura. Whether you are learning to do makeup or a makeup expert, this comprehensive guide will help you with the perfect everyday makeup look:
1. Skincare: When applying makeup, one should always start with prepping their skin. A good skincare routine will help you bring the results. Prioritizing your hydration will help build a flawless canvas, which will help stick your makeup and make your base look skin-like. Cleansing, Toning, and Moisturising your skin daily will help keep your skin healthy and hydrated. Whereas one should exfoliate their skin once or twice a week to remove the build-up of dead skin cells and bring out a natural glow.
2. Primer: After skincare, the most important step is to apply primer. A primer helps cover your pores and give you a smooth base to work with. It also helps your make-up last longer and prevents setting it into your fine lines and smile lines. There are a variety of primers you can choose from, whichever suits your skin type. People with dry skin should opt for a hydrating primer, for oily skin mattifying primer will work best, and for dull skin—you should opt for an illuminating primer.

3. Foundation: For an everyday makeup look, you don't want your base to look heavy or cakey, so one should go for a natural base foundation that is buildable and has medium to light coverage. You can also use a BB/CC cream or a skin tint. If you do not want the foundation on your full face, you can layer it by only applying on the parts that require the most coverage such as redness and blemishes. Blend it thoroughly with your fingers for a natural look however, you can also use a sponge or a foundation brush.
4. Concealer: A concealer is used to conceal any dark patches or dark spots. Sticking to one shade lighter will help brighten your under-eye area while providing extra coverage. If required one can also skip foundation and start with a concealer right after primer. Blending the concealer gently into the skin with a sponge or a brush will give it a natural look.
5. Blush: Blush adds a natural color to your face, which makes you look more lively and healthy after a plain base. Blush is applied to the apples or your cheek and now people have also started using it on the bridge and the tip of their noses. You can choose a blush shade that will complement and enhance your skin tone, for fair skin– pink and peaches will suit the best, coral and berry shades for medium skin tones and red and plum shades for darker skin tones.

6. Eyeliner and Mascara: To enhance your eye shape one should go for a winged eyeliner and mascara to give the eyes some depth. Opt for a thin liner or a felt tip eyeliner for better precision and sharp lines. You can always add mascara for a dramatic and intense look. Further, mascara helps volumize and lengthen your eyelashes.
7. Eyebrows: Brows frame the face and define it when the base is well taken care of. You could fill in any spare area using an eyebrow pencil or powder or sculpt your brows a bit more. One should brush their eyebrows upwards and outwards for a polished look.

8. Lipliner and Lipstick: For an everyday makeup look you can opt for natural shades that suit your lip color and your skin tone. A nude lipstick or a tinted lip balm will do the work for a seamless and natural finish. A lip liner will further define your lip shape and enable you to overline your lips for pucker with gloss afterward for a gleaming finish.
9. Setting spray: Use this for your makeup to last long hours. Your makeup will hold firm on your skin without smudging, creasing, or fading. Setting Spray will keep you looking fresh and beautiful for hours.
