How to Apply
1.
Foundation:-
Prep Your Skin:Start with a clean, moisturized face. This creates a smooth canvas for your makeup. You can use a primer if you want your makeup to last longer.
-
Dot and Blend:Apply small dots of foundation on your forehead, cheeks, nose, and chin. Use a makeup sponge or brush to blend the foundation evenly. Blend in a downward motion to avoid emphasizing any fine hairs on your face.
-
Build Gradually:If you need more coverage, you can layer the foundation. It's always better to start with less and add more if necessary.
2.
Concealer:-
Under Eyes:Apply concealer in a triangular shape under your eyes, with the base along your lower lash line and the point towards your cheek. This brightens your eyes and conceals any darkness.
-
Spot Concealing:Dab concealer on any blemishes or imperfections and blend the edges. This step ensures an even skin tone.
3.
Pink Blush:-
Smile and Apply:Smile to locate the apples of your cheeks. Apply the pink blush to this area in a gentle circular motion. This adds a youthful, rosy glow to your cheeks.
-
Blend Outward:Blend the blush towards your temples for a natural flush. Avoid bringing it too close to your nose to maintain Princess Peach's elegant look.
4.
Peachy Lipstick:-
Outline and Fill:Use a lip liner to outline your lips for precision. Fill in your lips with the peachy lipstick, staying within the lines for that perfect pout.
-
Optional Gloss:If you want extra shine, add a touch of clear lip gloss to the center of your lips.
5.
Soft Eyeshadow:-
Base Shade:Apply the lightest eyeshadow shade all over your lids as a base.
-
Crease Definition:Use the medium shade in your crease to add dimension to your eyes.
-
Brow Highlight:Apply the lightest shade under your brows to highlight and lift.
-
Blend, Blend, Blend:Blend the eyeshadows seamlessly to avoid harsh lines.
6.
Eyeliner:-
Subtle Line:With a steady hand, draw a thin line along your upper lash line. Keep it subtle to maintain Princess Peach's graceful style.
7.
Mascara and False Lashes:-
Curl Lashes:Use an eyelash curler to curl your natural lashes before applying mascara.
-
Apply Mascara:Coat your upper lashes with mascara for a wide-eyed look.
-
Optional False Lashes:If you're feeling extra glamorous, apply false lashes. Remember to trim them to fit your eye shape and use lash glue for secure adhesion.
