Basic makeup tips for beginners – by Cherelynn Baker
Makeup for women who don’t wear makeup
Brought to you by Cherelynn Baker of http://www.makeupuniversity.co m/
Perhaps you are a tomboy, don’t have time, new mom or a mom with busy kids, you name it; there is a reason for not wearing makeup.
Could it be the time it takes? Perhaps the skill? Is it self esteem?
I’m here to share a few easy steps to do simple makeup, with a few products and just know that the results will make you feel better about yourself, almost instantly.
After all, it’s a proven fact that lipstick sales go up during times of tragedy and stress. So let’s buy some lip product!
Here’s the number one secret to makeup: have great skin. How do you get great skin? Wash it. Moisturize it.
If you are really gung ho about taking care of your skin: tone and treat it. Though for the basics and training yourself into a skin routine: start with the two steps of washing with a gentle exfoliating wash and moisturize with a lightweight formula that has sunscreen in it.
Hey! Wait a minute! What’s the exfoliating part? I think you may as well put two steps in one. Personally as a skin care and makeup fanatic, I mask and exfoliate constantly.
If it’s not routine for you, most likely you won’t do this very important step in getting great skin. So let’s put two steps in one…find a product you like that is a face wash with a fine grain to it or a soft grit if you will.
Now that you have great skin, let’s enhance it. There are many choices of mineral makeup. It comes loose or pressed into a compact. I recommend this because you get a barrier spf in the minerals and you get easy coverage that doesn’t require time or skill to apply.
The next step is to follow with a bronzer. Why you say? Because self tanners on the face take strategic time to apply, too much sun can cause irreversible damage and bronzer gives your face face a healthy glow. Again, it doesn’t take time or expertise to apply.
Use a large domed brush, swirl it through the bronzer and swirl it on your face. Starting at the top of your forehead, down the nose, over the apples of the cheeks, swish over the chin and hit the center of your neck. Done.

Mascara is the one cosmetic item I would take with me if I was going to be deserted on a desert island.
There are so many brands to choose from. Here’s my recommendations: if budget is a concern, the Wet’n'Wild brand MegaPLUMP is good and costs $2.47 at Walmart.
