Text: Moore Sobolev, author of the Telegram-channel Fierce & Cute
Never was and here again: the winter has comeand with it temperature drops, freezing rain and other related joys. To make-up at this time it is necessary to impose special requirements: it is necessary that at the same time it does not smear and dry the skin, so that it looks decent both on the street and in the room. Moore Sobolev collected lifehacks for a harsh winter make-up and essential tools.
Preparation and consolidation
The easiest way to customize your makeup is to add a seasonal primer to your usual tonal tool. Firstly, it will prolong the life of the make-up, and secondly, it will add the necessary qualities to it - it will moisturize the skin, smooth out or mate it. In addition, almost any tonal tool on him lays smoother and ultimately looks better - some makeup artists advise using the base even under BB-cream. Another thing noticeably extending a decent kind of makeup - fixer. They are in the form of powder and spray, and some like to use both: first powder, then spray for very much reinforced concrete fixation.
Complexion
Everything is simple and difficult at the same time: most of us have skin that becomes more reactive during the cold season, so even the most “powerful” tonal means and concealers should be careful. It is better to refuse tightly matting agents - they often dry - in favor of softer, but at the same time resistant.
Cream texture
Cream blush, shadows and highlighters are not always distinguished by ultra-durable coating (although the primer partially solves this problem), but they are very good in winter, and this is why: first, they dry much less than powder, and secondly, fix makeup with their participation is much easier. Spots on the face, which appear when we enter the heated room from the street, look less sharp if the face has cream blush and not a clear powdery trail along which tears of rain creep. And there is always an option for maximum durability: walk on the creamy texture with a powder brush to match.
Waterproof products
The easiest and right way for especially wet and uncharitable weather to make-up - means, on the packaging of which there are words "waterproof" or "long lasting". Gone are the days when such things turned the skin into cracked earth - now there are enough products on the market that allow you not to choose between durability and comfort. But if you are not sure of the shock qualities of your eyeliner, it is better to abandon graphic make-up: if the arrow moves to the cheekbone, when this is not expected, it will be sad. Soft feathers correct where more convenient.
