How to make up at home?
The use of cosmetics goes back to the classic civilizations but even today many women have problems to paint themselves. What are the best tricks?
The Egyptians were the first to put on makeup, as shown by the tombs of the time. Cleopatra wore a red lipstick, which was made with the carmine of beetles. Later, the Greeks and the Romans imitated them, painting their faces with mineral powders and crushed stones. In the Middle Ages, this aesthetic trend fell into disuse and was more noble and was better seen having a pale face. At the beginning of the 20th century and until today, makeup became fashionable again.

It should be the most similar to the color of the face. The best way to find the perfect tone is with the strip test : to do this, make a strip with the makeup base you want to try from the cheek to the jaw. If it disappears, you have found your perfect tone. In case of doubt, decide for the lightest shade, but you should bear in mind that the key to a makeup without imperfections is to blur.

First, I would outline them with the lipstick, as this prevents the glossfrom coming off the lip. Also make up the corners, blurring even the center of the lip, so as not to create a contrast of color, in case the tone of the pencil and the lipstick are not the same. Then, with the desired lipstick, apply it by the center of the lip mixing with the pencil. And finally, the gloss -which can be the same color as the bar or transparent-, will be applied in the center of the lip to create the optical effect of thickness.
