Begin makeup with skin care. The skin needs to be cleansed and moisturized.
Apply primer or base. It can be any matte makeup base, perhaps it will be Givenchy Mister Mat or Sephora matting primer. The base will make the makeup more resistant, even out the unevenness of the skin and make applying subsequent products easier.
Then apply the foundation. It is important to choose a shade to suit your skin tone. The tool should have a pleasant texture, ensuring the alignment of complexion. These can be the popular Loreal Alliance Perfect or Maybelline Affinitone.
After that, a mineral primer is applied. The best mineral powders: Hide-A-Pore, MAC mineral powder, Larenim Mineral Silk powder. Apply it to a special brush for powder.
The final stroke of the veil powder. It can be everyone's favorite Meteorites from Guerlain or Clinique.

Following this pattern, you will get the perfect skin tone and dullness until the end of the day or evening. Apply a dry blush without a shimmer, for example, BeYu Catwalk or MAC Sheertone blush.

Create a matte makeup eye

Matte eye makeup is performed any shades of shadows, as long as they do not have a hint of shine. As a rule, makeup artists use 2 shades of the same color, for example, beige and brown. By following this advice, you will do it yourself a win-win version of make-up.

With a dry applicator, apply the same shadows on a moving eyelid and blend the border.
Add an arrow and tint the eyelashes with mascara.
