What makeup techniques imposed by beauty bloggers do not work in life

The way bloggers do makeup, many people think their techniques are relevant in life. Someone then begins to argue with other bloggers that, for example, concealer is applied only in a triangle and nothing else.

Let's analyze an important nuance on the shore: beauty blogger makeup is rarely suitable for everyday life. Many of them do makeup to make it look good on camera or in photos. They know their angles, how to show makeup so that it doesn't look too noticeable, and how to show it so that nuances are not visible, for example, during correction.

Reception number 1. Highlighting the area under the eyes with concealer

Take insta makeup, where bloggers like to apply concealer in a triangle under the eyes, and even in a thick layer.

What is a concealer, we have already analyzed with you, who forgot to remind you that it is more pigmented in comparison with the foundation, so there are some peculiarities when working with it.

What happens if you apply concealer in a thick layer under the eyes

Nothing criminal will happen. It will hide color nuances and whiten the area under the eyes, but this, of course, with the right color of the concealer (

if wrong, you just have, for example, a red triangle).

This will look beautiful in the photo and video, if this is not a macro shot. But in life this does not look so presentable, because the area around the eyes is the most active on our face, because of this, the concealer applied in a dense layer will roll into wrinkles and emphasize imperfections, which will be very noticeable.

Another important point: the thicker the makeup layer, the shorter the makeup lifespan. In other words, while you reach, for example, to work, it is possible that the appearance in this area will differ from the original, from the moment you apply makeup.

I will record a video about how best to apply concealer and show everything clearly. Subscribe to the channel so as not to miss.

Reception number 2. Correction of nuances around lips and eyebrows with concealer

They can't leave the concealer alone :-)

Those who often watch videos with beauty bloggers, I think, paid attention to a similar method of correcting and highlighting lips and eyebrows.

In this way, for example, lipstick that has gone beyond the edge of the lips is corrected. And the concealer is not suitable for these purposes, all for the same reason - it is pigmented. Correction with concealer will be noticeable and, as it were, stand out on the face.

If you want to use this method, use your own foundation instead of concealer, apply it in a thin layer with a flat brush.

Reception number 3. Nose correction by a sculptor

Wow, this is my favorite because I tried to shrink my nose more than once until I realized it was useless. In the end, I just fell in love with him for who he is :-)

There are not so many ways to change the shape of the nose: rhinoplasty and injections, well, and photoshop :-)

Correction of the shape of the nose by the sculptor is very noticeable in life, no matter how you try to shade it. More precisely, if you look directly, then everything looks pretty good, but when you turn your head, the correction by the sculptor is very noticeable, this will draw even more attention to your nose. This method, again, is perfect for a photo, and then if you will be photographed in full face.

Reception number 4. Strong lipstick or pencil protruding beyond the lip contour

Just stop doing that! This is very (I would say - VERY) noticeable from any angle. Yes, even in the photo, this is noticeable and very ugly. The maximum you can go beyond the contour and it will be more or less "wearable" - 1 mm.

It is worth mentioning that make-up artists can resort to such correction methods described above. Because they know who can fit, and who will be very noticeable. They know the medium they are working with and the techniques for making everything less visible. But their experience and technique is almost impossible to adapt for "make-up for yourself".
