My experience at the Lagos Makeup Fair.

In 30minutes, i had blown through my cash, and i had just a little nylon to show for it. Makeup is expensive!   My first point of call was the mymakeupng stall (instagram handle). The hospitality was topnotch. The attendant opened a bottle of wine for moi and treated me to cup cakes. I ended up spending 50percent of my money there o(fine wine). I can however say for a fact that they stock up quality products that are scarce to find like skindinavia primer, skindinavia setting spray, black opal stick foundation, joeur lip toppers ,elf brushes (orig...

How to apply foundation flawlessly

Image
Moisturize your face before applying makeup to avoid your face looking flaky. Remember to tap it into the skin and not rub. Prime your face to avoid your makeup sliding right of your face. This allows your face to soak in the foundation without any hassle. Allow it to dry before applying foundation. Use the right tool for your foundation application.it could be a brush or blending sponge depending on your personal preference. Make sure whatever you decide to use is clean to avoid germs. Select the right shade for your skin tone. Using lighter shades will have your face looking completely different from the rest of your body. Be sure to blend your foundation down the nape of your neck towards your chest area. After applying your foundation,set it with your powder to give it a perfect finish. No matter how late you are, don t skip your powder.
