Faking Perfect Skin

Does anyone really have perfect skin? I don’t think so. Actresses have pro makeup artists, special airbrush makeup  and photoshop that, when used right, can make them look flawless. So how does an ordinary girl get perfect skin?

In reality, you’ll never truly have unflawed skin, Every person’s skin is different and that’s the way God made us. We often see these differences as flaws and imperfections. To some extent, we can prevent these “flaws”, but some of the things that we may see as imperfections are made by God. You know that birthmark you have? It’s created by God, as is your skin tone, your skin type, even your acne. (I know, God only gives good things, right? Well, there’s gotta be some point to acne… even though I’m not sure what it is)

But, in my opinion it’s okay to wear makeup and want perfect skin… even if the perfect skin goal is unrealistic. And I’ve found out how to fake it.

Tips to fake the perfect skin:

·     Be sure to wash your face everyday, twice a day, morning and night. It’s important that you give yourself a good, clean canvas to start with before you put on your makeup. At night, it allows for your skin to breathe
·     Use moisturizer. It’s really important to give your skin a break and revitalize it. Moisturizer does just that!
·     Before putting on face makeup, use a primer. It covers up little imperfections and gives you a base to put your foundation or cover up over.
·     Blend foundation with your hands and don’t rub it into your skin. Instead, lightly pat it in.
·     Set your makeup with pressed or loose powder. It creates a gorgeous matte finish.
·     Blush makes you look awake and healthy! I love rosy pink colors.
·     Smile! That instantly brightens anyone’s face.

Until next time,
