Avoiding Foundation Line
|
|
|
Start at the center of your face with the heaviest amount of base and move towards the hairline. This thins out the base as it reaches the hairline and gives coverage in the middle of the face, where you need it most. Always moisturise really well before applying m/up and use Foundation Brush for streak-free even blending. Clinique's Perfectly Real Foundation create's skin's most perfected, natural look.

Cleansing
|
|
|
Wash face with warm water, but not so hot that it's uncomfortable or reddens the face, and not too cool. Lukewarm water helps soap dissolve dirt and oil. Use hands to massage soap on, rinse and pat dry with towel. |

Contouring
|
|
|
The use of makeup to create or enhance shape. Because light shades bring features forward, and darks recede, eyes can be dramatically sculpted. Face shape can be modified with blusher colour and blusher placement. (refer to Eye, Blusher, and Lip tips sections for details.) Clinique's Up-Lighting Liquid Illuminator is fantastic for highlighting where required.

Darker Skin Tone Tips
|
|
|
Colours can often look washed out on darker skin tones. Choose colours rich in pigment and depth with less talc, to prevent colour fade and ashiness. Choose taupey charcoals and use reds and coppers for lips and warm Blushing Blush Powder Blush shades for depth.

Exfoliation
|
|
|
Renewal process that helps skin shed its top layer of dead, dry flakes. Improves the look and feel of every skin. Unclogs pores. Makes skin more receptive to moisturiser. Exfoliation can be chemical using salicylic acid or manual such as grainy scrubs. Different types perform different functions. According to Clinique's Guiding Dermatologists ‘At any age controlled exfoliation is perhaps the single most productive thing you can do for your skin's appearance.' Exfoliation lessens the appearance of lines. Makeup looks smoother. Oilier skin becomes clearer and clearer. Evens skin tone. For daily custom-fit exfoliation use Clarifying Lotion. for added stepped up exfoliation use Turnaround Concentrate Visible Skin Renewer. AM/PM too. Weekly exfoliation use Turnaround 15-Minute Facial, to really kick start your cell renewal and when needed use grainy exfoliators, Gentle Exfoliator, 7 Day Scrub or Exfoliating Cream.

Foundation
|
|
|
Makeup foundations come in many formulas and shades. Choose one that suits your skin type (oily or dry), gives the amount of coverage you want (sheer, moderate or full), provides the finish you prefer (dewy, matt,or natural), and offers options like waterproof, SPF, etc. The shade should closely match your skin tone. Best test area? Cheek area - make sure the shade is also as close to natural skin tone as possible. To get the perfect shade apply 3 undertones Pink/Golden/Neutral onto the cheek area, the shade that disappears is right for you, always avoid judging colour against neck area as it will always be to light!

Large Pores

|
|
Minimise enlarged pores and shine with scrupulously clean skin, oil-combating foundations, and perfect powder finish. Use Pore Minimising Refining Serum to keep pores clear and clog free. Try Clarifying Powder Makeup to minimise oil production. Conceal with Pore-Minimizer Instant Perfector. Quick tip: If oil surfaces during the day, blot the area with Pore Minimising Oil-Blotting Sheets, apply a thin coat of Pore-Minimzer T-Shine Control cream-gel, which instantly reduces T-zone shine and oiliness while controlling shine. Re-dust with powder.

Makeup Removal
|
|
|
Always remove makeup with a specially designed Makeup Remover before washing with the Facial Soap for your skin type. Washing without removing makeup first is like taking a shower with your clothes on! Soap is designed to clean skin - if it has to work through makeup it can't do its job as effectively. |

Every skin tone can be enhanced with a few products to give a natural makeup look. For summer, protect with Moisture Sheer Tint SPF 15. For added luminosity apply Up-Lighting Liquid Illuminator on cheeks and temples. Long Pretty Mascara and Touch Tint for Eyes give a soft daytime look. Superbalm Tinted Lip Treatment to treat and colour with a subtle sheen. Using the thinnest layers of each: Hide flaws with concealer. Fluff blusher over cheekbones, out to hairline. Lips get a deeper-than-lip-colour shade of pencil and gloss. Eyes, shadowed in subtle shades of neutral. Note: Natural does not mean naked. Always use makeup brushes to blend, blend, blend.
