Express
yourself. Have Fun. Steelo Makeup Artist’s Tips and Tricks.
GOLDEN RULE:
Experiment! Try different colors,
different looks. Do You. It’s only makeup.
FOUNDATION:
A must from the start is selecting the right foundation to enhance
your skin, and to create a flawless canvas.
The best foundation should seem invisible because it blends so well into
your skin. Begin by selecting 3
different foundation shades that you think are a close match to your skin, pay
close attention to the undertones in your skin.
Apply the colors on your jaw line and the color that seems to disappear
into your skin is the correct choice.
Steelo’s Flawless Coverage Mineral Foundations were developed from the
complexions of real women, not in an experimental lab. Flawless Coverage Mineral Foundations are
made from natural ingredients and do not contain Bismuth Oxychloride, an
irritant to the skin that makes the face appear shiny. Your skin will have a natural flawless dewy
finish with the extra benefits of being healthy, without the harmful chemical
ingredients found in most leading brands.
Foundation
is weightless,
minimizes pores and provides excellent coverage. Can also be used as a concealer.
Flawless Coverage Mineral
Foundation Steps:
- For
best results begin with Steelo’s Face Primer SPF 20 and apply to entire face
following your moisturizer.
- Place a small amount of the foundation in the cap.
- Insert Steelo’s Flat Top Brush #520 into cap, tap brush to remove any excess product.
- Apply foundation using a
circular motion. Make sure to blend into
the hairline.
If you desire a fuller coverage, wet the Flat Top Brush with
Steelo’s Perfect Finish Setting Spray before step #3.
For a professional touch,
finish your look with Steelo’s Translucent Setting Powder using Powder Brush
#524. Steelo’s Mattifying Translucent
Powder is ideal for oily skin, it eliminates shine. Also great for use in photography. The colorless powder leaves skin with a silky
smooth, natural matte finish.
BLUSH:
Apply blush from just above the earlobe downward to mid-cheek so you do not
leave a huge deposit of color on the apple of the cheek. Then blend, blend, blend. Colors can also be used to highlight. Use Blush Brush #510 for a soft even
application of color.
EYE
MAKEUP:
Use Steelo's eye shadows and mineral eye shimmers to reflect your every mood. The colors can be used wet for deep color and
added drama. Keep in mind when applying
eye shadow, dark colors recede or minimize features, and light colors
highlight.
Creating
a base first is critical to eye shadow application. The eye shadow will apply more evenly, be true to color
and it will wear longer. Begin with
Steelo’s Eye Shadow Base for the eye area. This is optional, but
recommended as it will create a smooth barrier between your eye makeup and
skin, and it will be an excellent base to build makeup layers upon. It should be applied and blended well, avoiding
the lashes, ensuring that it does not collect in eye area creases.
Steps:
- Prime the eyelids
with Steelo’s Eye Shadow Base, using Concealer Brush #502.
- Select a light base
shadow. Using Steelo Eye Shader Brush #632, sweep it across your entire lid,
from brow to lash line.
- Use a medium-toned
shade to cover your lower lids.
- Contour the crease
of your eyelid with a dark shade, using Steelo’s Crease Brush.
- Blend shadow by
stroking the lid gently with the Eye Shader brush.
- Finish
with eye liner and mascara
MINERAL
EYE SHIMMERS:
Loose powder eye shadow dust creates intense color. Use to highlight eyes
for drama, wet as sparkling eyeliner, or as an all-over face and body
highlighter.
SMOKEY
EYE TIPS:
The standard smokey eye look is created using heavy black or dark charcoal
colors, but can also be created by using deep hues of blues, browns, and
purples to play up your eye color and make you look fierce.
- Start by applying an eye shadow base to your eyelid,
then sweep the lightest color in the palette all over your eye.
- Next, apply a medium eye shadow shade from your lash
line to the crease of your eye and blend well.
- Then
use your crease brush to gently apply the darkest color to your crease.
Blend well.
- For
a glamorous look, dab a light
amount of Steelo’s Mineral Eye Shimmers to your brow bone.
- Draw a thin line with your eyeliner close to your
lashes. For added drama, smudge the line with Steelo’s Smudge Brush #630, or
leave it untouched for a more defined effect.
For a finishing touch,
line the inner rims of your upper and lower eyelid.
LIP COLOR:
If lip liner will be used, apply before lipstick. Use a freshly sharpened Steelo lip pencil either
in the same color family as the lipstick or a slightly darker color.
For best results use Steelo’s Lip Brush #700 when applyinglipstick. It will help define the
contours of your mouth, and gives you more control over the direction and the
amount of color that is applied.
Use Steelo’s Liquid Pearl Lip Gloss alone to give a light, finished pearlized
look. Add a coat of lip gloss to
lipstick for an added effect. Use a
light lip color in the center of the lips to add dimension.
BODY SHIMMER:
Dust on face or body using Steelo’s Powder Brush #524 for some sparkle and
shine. Place a small amount of body
shimmer in the cap. Insert the Powder
Brush in cap, and tap to remove excess.
Lightly dust on the body.
