There are 6 things makeup professionals never do during summer makeup.
If you do this, it's a shortcut to ruining your summer makeup for sure.
Those with large pores must absolutely adhere to this.
No matter how well you do your makeup, if you mess up this part, it's all over.
Hello, everyone.
This is INBORA.
Everyone, today, when you do makeup in the summer, the more you apply, the messier and stickier it gets.
Have you all experienced looking overly sweaty and hot? I'm sure everyone has.
To be honest, I've been studying makeup for over 10 years, but I find summer particularly challenging compared to other seasons.
In summer, you have to be especially careful not only with pores and oiliness but also with color tones, which require much more delicate attention.
I understand that feeling well.
So, I've prepared for it.
There are 6 things makeup professionals never do during summer makeup.
If you do this, it's a shortcut to ruining your summer makeup for sure.
If any of you find doing makeup in summer particularly difficult and challenging, and wonder why it always seems to go wrong, then one of these 6 reasons is definitely the cause.
Today's video is a must-watch without a doubt.
Alright, let's go through each one step by step.
First, let's be careful with this during base makeup.
It's about covering pores.
If you have oily skin, your pores are inevitably larger.
Why? Because the oil glands' ducts are the pores themselves.
However, it gets really hot in our summers.
As the temperature rises, the skin temperature also rises, causing the sebaceous glands to become much more active.
That's why oil production increases significantly.
Also, being an oil-producing area, my T-zone goes crazy.
At times like this, if I mess up my base makeup, my pores can look much more prominent.
Makeup experts always meticulously base on skin with enlarged pores.
For those who usually like dewy or glowing skin, it's important to be a bit cautious in the summer.
Therefore, I'll share some tips on how to tighten pores a bit more.
When pores appear enlarged, it's crucial to use a sweeping motion to fill in the gaps rather than simply pressing with a puff or brush as usual.
This method of filling in the gaps is really important for a smoother base.
Alternatively, using a specialized pore brush for the nose can help cover the pores between them effectively when applying foundation.
That's why those with large pores must absolutely pay attention to this part.
It's best to choose a foundation that is thin, lightweight, and finishes matte.
The nose area, being where pores and sebum are more prominent, requires a firmer and thinner application for the best adherence.
If this area isn't properly covered, the base can easily look sticky and make you appear warmer.
Next, do you have skin prone to severe darkening? If so, you should definitely try this.
It's color powder.
Let me pick one color powder for you.
Definitely try using lavender.
For skin prone to severe darkening, using lavender color in the finishing step can brighten up your complexion.
Focus on areas where oil tends to accumulate, and on the T-zone where pores are enlarged.
Try using lavender-colored powder in these areas.
Since lavender color comes in various tones, choose one that doesn't appear too pale but naturally tones up your skin.
However, the key point here is that makeup experts never do this.
Applying too much of it blindly is not a good idea.
You should apply it as thinly as possible, focusing on the T-zone and butterfly zone, using a puff or a powder brush lightly layered.
Many people use more powder in summer compared to other seasons.
However, as the amount of powder increases, it can more easily separate due to sweat and oil, so it's crucial to pay attention to the amount you use.
The next third one is about eyebrow tone and eyebrow base.
When drawing eyebrows, never do this.
Leaving the natural oiliness of the eyebrows.
Darken the eyebrow tone.
Since eyebrows are made of hair, there might be some natural oiliness or residue from skincare or base products mixed in between the eyebrows.
Before applying brow makeup, it's essential to gently mattify and prepare with a brown-toned shadow or powder that complements your eyebrows.
And you also need to match the eyebrow tone to this.
In summer, many of you really bleach or dye your hair, right? Depending on the hair color tone or makeup tone, we also need to adjust our brow tone a bit.
Even if you have dark hair like mine, if you only match your eyebrows with a dark tone that's solely based on your hair color, especially in summer, it can make your eyebrows appear overly dark.
Doing this can make both sides feel stifling and really hot.
That's why when you're doing eyebrow makeup, makeup experts always pay attention to these two things.
Now, moving on to the fourth point about mascara and eyeliner, many people don't know this.
When applying mascara and eyeliner, you must absolutely adhere to this.
It's related to longevity.
Sometimes in summer, people go for skincare diets or makeup diets, opting for foundation-free makeup.
When you just want a light tone-up and add a subtle touch with mascara and eyeliner to create a natural, effortless look, it's essential to follow this process.
Are there people who apply mascara and eyeliner directly with foundation, or over bare skin? When you apply eyeliner and mascara directly onto bare eyes, they tend to get oily and tear up easily.
Especially with eyeliner, it doesn't apply cleanly and can smudge or erase messily.
Or applying mascara and eyeliner directly on bare skin after doing only skincare? 100% smudge, you know.
If it smudges or feels incomplete, our summer makeup is bound to fail.
So, you must do this part without fail.
Just lightly apply a base tone eyeshadow.
You don't need to apply multiple shades.
Just lightly apply a base eyeshadow color on your eyelids and under your eyes.
This way, you can achieve a natural, effortless look with minimal smudging.
The eyeshadow base acts as a powder on the eyelids, preventing eyeliner and mascara from clumping and helping to keep them smooth and matte.
So, strangely enough, those who say 'I just do foundation-free' 'go for a light makeup,' and 'my eyeliner and mascara spread better,' have a reason here.
That's why you must remember this point without fail.
Now, onto the fifth topic related to eye makeup.
In summer, many of us want to go for a lighter and cooler-looking makeup.
When aiming for a lighter and cooler-looking makeup in summer, it's important not to make the eye shadow or gradient too wide or deep.
The stronger the gradient, the more depth it adds, often giving a warm and cozy feeling.
Building color step by step can easily create a sophisticated and subtle depth, but it tends to diminish the pure and light atmosphere.
So, depending on how you do your makeup, not only is the tone of eye makeup colors important, but also how you utilize this tone.
The width and depth of the gradient you create can also influence how warm or hot it may appear.
When you look at makeup and skincare photoshoots, makeup experts not only focus on the color tone but also skillfully layer the gradient to achieve different effects.
Just by looking at photos, you can tell that the depth of eye makeup affects how light it appears.
So, for those who want a lighter and cooler appearance, choosing cooler tones is important when selecting colors.
Additionally, paying attention to the gradient's range and skillful application is also beneficial.
And finally, the sixth point.
Anyone who knows makeup well definitely knows this.
It's about distributing the points of hue and saturation.
Those who are good at makeup know how to distribute these points well.
In short, it's about being good at adjusting color combinations.
While some people enjoy using a variety of tone hues regardless of the season, excluding those preferences, if you dislike looking too warm especially in summer and want to correct that slightly stuffy feeling, pay attention to this sixth point.
For those who want to achieve a lively and energetic vibe with vibrant colors, focusing on either cheek tint or lip color as a standout feature would be ideal.
For example, emphasizing a bold red lip while keeping all other shades minimal helps maintain a strong color saturation without appearing overly warm.
Or, if you intensify the focus on the cheeks while toning down the intensity of lip or eye makeup, it often avoids giving off a warm appearance.
On the contrary, if you load up all areas without distributing color intensity, it can feel stuffy and appear warmer.
Therefore, in summer, while it's important to use bright and vibrant colors to create a focal point, it's equally crucial to focus on one are like eye makeup, cheeks, or lips.
By distributing the focus in your makeup, you ensure that the overall look remains balanced and fresh.
If you don't know this, your summer makeup is bound to fail.
So, these are the six essential tips I've shared with you.
In fact, these tips are quite basic, but the moment you overlook these fundamentals, your makeup can start to look off.
So, if you feel like your makeup always fails or tends to melt away in summer, it's definitely due to one of these six reasons.
Make sure to check them out.
