Make-up problems

We have all been on YouTube looking at make-up tutorials, looking at perfect flawless make-up on women, then they recommend buying the product, and you buy it and use it, and it doesn't work! WHY! The answer is being trans we have male skin, bigger pores etc...  You need to identify your skin type and with age you need to prep the skin before using make-up. 

There is no point in me telling you what I use, because we all have different skin, dry, oily, or both, in different areas of your face. It will be a mixture of trial and error to find your perfect skin products, the secret to good-looking make-up is face preparation, from shaving, moisturizer, face scrubs, pore reduction cream, oils, cleanser, make-up removal, primer etc...

You will need to have a skin care routine, every day! Even if you're not wearing make -up. This well hydrate your skin and reduce wrinkles, the same can be said for your hands, your hands age quicker than your face! You don't need the most expensive because there is no guarantee it will work, you end up wasting your money, do your homework and read reviews, ask a make-up artist or the make-up assistant for advice, ask them what they use.

Also review your skin every five years, your skin changes and the product you have been using doesn't work any more, once you have good skin your make-up will look much better, fewer wrinkles, smoother and use less make-up, which saves you money.

I wish I knew this advice before!  Take care Julie xx
