Well, it's because they are professionals who have mastered their form of art. These makeup witches and wizards have accumulated quite a few tips and tricks over the years. 

But fear not ladies, I'm here to share the secrets of the makeup world with you. Which will help you achieve your dream look. 

Insider Secrets for Your Flawless Makeup Look

Without further delay here are some magical tips and tricks for you: 

1. Minimizing Redness of the Skin 

A great tip that most artists swear by is using eyedrops to minimize the redness of your skin. The eyedrops reduce redness by constricting blood vessels. But be careful! In this case less is more. Beauty and science are cool, huh? 

2. Taming the Fuzz 

On most occasions, a perfect look is ruined by the baby hairs of the face standing out. For a more seamless finish, after applying your foundation move the brush in a downward movement, so that the unwanted baby hairs lay flat against your skin. 

3. Colour Theory is your Best Friend 

Understanding the colour wheel can take your makeup game to the next level. Make choices that suit your skin tone the best. Professionals use colour theory to make harmonious choices best suited for a specific person. Mix and match colours for the perfect look. 

4. Achieving a “Natural Glow” 

At a loss on how to achieve the perfect “glowy skin” look? It's quite simple. Your makeup textures are quite important here. Try applying your cream bronzer, blush, and highlighter before your foundation. Why? Because this is how you get that subtle “lit from within” glow. 

5. Know Thy Tools

Using the correct tools can take you a long way. A beauty blender can be found in every makeup artist's bag. Why do you think they keep them close? The perfect foundation finish can be achieved by applying your foundation with a beauty blender. 

6. Eyes are the Windows to the Soul 

The eyes are the focal point of your face. They tell a story better than you ever could. Work on your eyes. Try looks that make you appear confident; whether it be a cat eye, a phenomenal cut crease, or the forever sexy smoky eye. 

Conclusion 

Now that the secrets are out, I hope you find them useful in achieving your perfect makeup look. Which is most suited to make you more confident than ever. As the legendary makeup artist Bobbi Brown can be quoted, “I believe that all women are pretty without makeup, but the right makeup can be pretty powerful.” 

Don't be frustrated if you don’t get it right on the first try. Mastering an art takes time and makeup for all its beauty is an art.
