I’m Quach Anh
I’m 26 years old
My friends who are at the same age haven’t gotten married yet, but I’m married
I also create beautiful makeup looks
I can do it and so can you
How it should be
What to say next
Let’s go
Hello everyone, welcome back to my new video
Before jumping into the main topic of this video, I need you to know
that this video is not for those who have already been able to make up professionally
To be more precise, it is for people who are at basic level
I have filmed hundreds of makeup tutorials in different topics,
but most of them are my favorites that I am passionate about
However, sometimes viewers cannot understand or feel in the same way
Therefore, recently, I have started asking you guys on Instagram
about topics in which you are interested the most and want me to do the most
They turn out to be many extremely basic techniques which I thought you obviously know how to do
But it is not like that
This video is a bit late
but it is really helpful for beginners
who want to learn how to apply makeup but know neither where to start nor what to prepare
Right now, I will save all of you
by sharing some tips or basic makeup techniques that all beginners need to know
Let’s go
The first thing we need to do is to tide our hair up
To make this video, I had to ask many people
who know nothing about makeup so that I can understand their mentality
I know that people knowing nothing about makeup usually feel panic
They don’t know which products are for them, which things are necessary, which ones are not
Moreover, they are confused about how they look,
how other people see them and whether the makeup look is suitable for them
It means that they do everything in imitation,
just follow their instinct without coming up with any more effective methods
The most important thing I want to remind you is that if you want to achieve a beautiful finish look,
you need to have flawless skin first
If you have watched my makeup tutorial video for acne skin,
if you haven’t watched it, I will leave the link right up here for you,
you will see that my skin was in a really bad condition
In that video, with the skin like that, no matter how much I tried to cover it up,
my foundation could not be perfect and incredibly beautiful
So, to get perfect foundation application, you have to give your skin careful and good skincare
If you haven’t watched the video about my present skincare routine,
you can click the link in the description box below to watch
This is two products from The Face Shop I’ve been using
They are for dry skin – exactly my skin type
I see that using these in the winter prevents skin from being dry
Despite being a makeup artist, I find skincare steps totally crucial
Previously, as my skin had a lot of pimples, I was quite afraid of giving my skin careful skincare
However, I have been applying a skincare routine which is pretty suitable for me,
I can see my skin getting better a lot
Therefore, I start realizing how important a skincare routine is
After cleansing my face, we are going to apply a toner to help balance the skin
If I don’t use a toner after cleansing my face, my skin will feel dry and a burning sensation
I will even not be able to smile
If I smile too widely, it will cause my skin to feel cracked
Normally, I will apply two ways for this step: using cotton pads or using my hands
After applying toner, I will use a moisturizing cream
Whatever your skin type is, oily skin, dry skin or combination skin,
we always need to hydrate out skin, in fact, my skin type is dry skin
That’s why I never forget to use a moisturizing product in my daily skincare routine
You just need to provide your skin with the sufficient amount of hydration,
then your skin will be much glowier and healthier
It is when your skin is ready to be put on makeup
Apply a bit to the neck because it is the part getting older the most easily
I have just finished moisturizing my skin, let’s move onto makeup steps
This step is very simple and essential, however, many people are usually subjective and skip this step
You should know that if we want to build a tall building, you have to build solid foundations first
As today video is for people who feel totally panic and need to know some basic makeup products,
I’m not going to use too many cosmetic products
This will make it easier for you so you can start doing makeup immediately
People say “For shape, second skin”, for body fitness you should find Hana Giang Anh
But when it comes to skin, if you want a more perfect look for your skin,
you need to use a foundation or a cushion
You can choose between a foundation and a cushion, it depends on your needs
Nowadays, cushion is absolutely a great invention for people
who are too lazy to wear makeup or too confused about how to do makeup
Why? It is because it has already combined a lot of different functions for those who don’t have much time
Today, I’m going to use this cushion for today makeup look
This is BB Power Perfection Cushion, I think it is high coverage
One thing I love about cushion is that it has SPF 50 PA+++
If you use foundation, you will need to apply sunscreen first, then primer and finally foundation
This is quite difficult and complicated for some people
Then all of the above steps are included in this product, which will help us a lot
Many of you think that cushion will make your skin too glowy, especially those who have oily skin.
They often hesitate to use a cushion.
But do you know that there are a lot of different types of cushion and each one has its own functions.
There are cushions giving natural look, they just moisturize and even out skin color.
Besides, there are oil control cushions or full coverage ones.
There are more and more cushion products continuing to be innovated over time so that you shouldn’t be too worried.
There will be more and more cushion products which suit your skin type well, just like foundation ones
Ok, let’s start.
This is the cushion sponge, we will press it slightly then apply the product to our skin.
Many people implement this step in a wrong way, it is to press the product quickly on our skin.
However, the right way of applying cushion is to slightly tap the product onto our skin.
This will help the product’s coverage work better and more long-lasting on the skin.
Furthermore, it will make our skin look beautiful, smooth and glowy.
This product has quite high coverage, therefore, after being applied cushion on,
this side looks totally different from the other one.
For other more complicated makeup looks, I don’t add foundation to my eye areas,
however, for this basic makeup look, I will apply the cushion around my eye areas.
I will explain the reason why I’m doing this later.
Ok, I have finished doing makeup on half of my face.
Now we can compare these two sides.
Do you see the differences?
In addition, many people wonder which shade of foundation suits their skin tone
and when you test foundation products at showrooms, which part of your body you should test it on so that the shade matches the skin color of you face best.
There are different suggestions such as testing foundation on the back of your hand, on your wrist or checking your undertone.
But for me, the simplest easiest correctest way is to test it on your own face.
When I tested this cushion on my face, it looked absolutely invisible on my skin,
which proves that this cushion shade suits my skin tone best.
Nevertheless, I have some advice for people having oily skin, you should the foundation whose color is one shade lighter than your skin tone.
The forehead skin is darker than other parts of the face,
therefore, when I apply cushion on the first half of my face,
you can easily see that the forehead area on this side is darker than the other one.
However, the nose or cheek areas’ shade on both sides looks quite similar.
So you should remember not to test foundation on the forehead areas because it will not accurate.
You should test it on your cheeks or jawline areas.
For daily makeup look, if you feel that your cushion has already covered up all flaws on your face,
like today, I think my cushion has helped to improve my skin a lot, I will even be able to skip the concealing step.
But if you want to achieve a perfectly flawless look, you can apply concealer.
In today market, there are a ton of different types of concealer such as liquid concealer, concealer stick, and concealer cream.
Nonetheless, each type has its own function and coverage level which are suitable for different types of blemish.
Today, I’m going to share with you about the most basic types of concealer,
which can also be applied the most easily.
One suggestion is this concealer dual veil from The Face Shop, it has both liquid and cream stick concealers.
The liquid concealer is used to get rid of under eye dark circles and pigmented spots.
It helps to cover up flaws without making your skin feel heavy.
Look down a little bit, you can easily the dark circles under eyes.
Apply a bit of the product.
Remember not to apply it close to your eyes.
Only add it to the pigmented areas, only a little.
We only need to apply a sufficient amount.
If you continue to use this cushion sponge, you should fold it in two,
then use your forefinger so that you can blend the concealer out more easily and precisely.
The cream stick concealer has a higher level of coverage than the liquid one does.
Therefore, I’m going to use it to cover up acnes on my face.
One tip is that for liquid concealers used to hide dark circles,
we should choose products whose color is one shade lighter than that of the foundation.
For cream concealer used to cover up pigmented spots, we should use the color which matches the shade of the foundation.
There are many different types of facial powder.
There are two basic types which are loose powders and compact powders.
And a lot of you are wondering which one is for your skin type, loose powders or pressed powders.
Then now, I will show you some fundamental features of the two types of powders so that you can get a better understanding about them.
Loose powders usually give natural lightweight coverage with good oil control.
Compact powders have a higher level of coverage, long-lasting, smooth and hydrating.
If your skin don’t have too many blemishes and you only need a thin layer of setting powder,
you should use a loose powder.
If you feel that your foundation shade is uneven or it is too thick,
you should apply a pressed powder so as to set everything all in.
Besides, compact powders are quite portable, we can carry them for touchups when it is necessary.
If I want to make my foundation last all day,
I will apply an oil- control transparent loose powder to the inner parts of my face.
I will not apply it on my entire face, only on the inner parts.
This will help to make it feel light and airy on my skin,
which is an extremely crucial thing to do for those having oily skin.
I have just finished off the first basic step- the foundation application.
We will move onto the second step: drawing eyebrows.
This step is also important.
In fact, I did make a video to teach you how to draw eyebrows in a correct way.
I you haven’t watched it, you can click the link in the description box below.
If your brows are too messy or muddy, it will even make your face look sad or tired.
Eyebrows whose shade is too light can also make you look older.
To make a mention of a typical example which clearly shows the importance of eyebrows,
you guys can think of Mai Ngo – a super model.
Brow pencils or brow gel products will make it easier for you to define and shape your eyebrows.
Of course, this is the step which requires a lot of practice as it is related a bit to mathematics.
However, for beginners,
you shouldn’t put too much pressure on yourself or set too high standards like I need to create beautifully even eyebrows.
Instead, you should follow your natural brow shape and try to make it look prettier.
The first thing we need to do is to comb eyebrow hairs to shape your eyebrows.
Only by doing this, your brows look totally different.
After that, I will use this brow pencil to even out the color of my brows.
In reality, for daily makeup look, I don’t pay much attention or try to create a perfect bold look for my eyebrows,
I just want them to be natural.
This means that I will fill in any sparse areas on the brow.
I don’t need them to be too sharp, I just want them to look natural.
This will be easier for you to do.
However, even when you have practiced a lot, you feel that you don’t have any aptitudes for eyebrow application,
then I suggest that you should get eyebrow tattoo spray or embroidery so as to save your time.
I just need to do some basic steps to even out the color of my eyebrows.
I have received some questions from you guys telling me that your eyebrows are too thick, black and bold.
Many of you ask me how to make them look lighter and more natural.
One thing you don’t understand is that having naturally beautiful eyebrows has given you an advantage over many people,
why don’t you keep them original.
People don’t have naturally beautiful eyebrows then they have to draw them.
But if you have them, just keep them natural, there is no need to add anything to them
After the eyebrow application, we will start doing the eye makeup.
So what is the most important thing about eye makeup?
The eyeshadow?
Eyelid tape?
Or eyeliner?
I think if you are not able to put on makeup, then at least try to learn
how to curl your lashes and apply mascara in order to pop up your eyes.
Now I will show you how beautiful eyelashes can change your whole eye look.
Like I said in many previous videos, we should neither curl our lashes at one point nor curl them too much.
Instead of doing like that, you should lift the eyelash curler up and curl your lashes at many points
so that they will look naturally curling.
Depending on how long and how thick you want your eyelashes to be, you can choose an appropriate type of mascara
because each type has its own function.
I have curled up my lashes, put on some mascara on this side and haven’t done anything on the other one.
On this side, my eye looks bigger, more beautiful, charming and more sparkling.
If you want to practice doing eye makeup,
you can start with light tones such as nude, orangish brown or light pink.
In fact, for a daily look, it is fine to not apply eyeshadow.
But if you want, you can definitely do it.
Here I have these two basic colors, a nude shade and a brownish orange color.
I will use a flat brush like this, I will dip into the lighter shade first.
These are two most basic colors.
Any type of skin can use them.
They are highly suitable for daily makeup.
I have replaced the eye primer with some concealer.
Normally, I will apply eyeshadows before curling eyelashes and putting on some mascara.
However, to make it easier for you to see the importance of eyelashes,
I had to do it first.
When applying eyeshadows, you should restrict them within the crease area of your eye lid.
We should not press it too hard, try to blend it gently like this,
your eyeshadows will be blended more nicely.
In order to add more depth to the eyes, we can use a bolder shade.
The easiest way to do is to add it close to your lash line,
a bit more to the lower lash line.
The tones are very safe, in case you mess them up, you can easily fix them.
There is one more step left which many people like.
In my opinion, although this step is not too essential, you can do it as long as you want.
However, it is quite difficult for many people.
It is the eyeliner application.
When it comes to eyeliner, there are a lot of different products such as gel eyeliner, pencil eyeliner, cream or liquid eyeliner.
Beginners who want to apply eyeliner should use liquid eyeliners.
Days ago, I did make a video sharing with you guys about different types of eyeliner styles for Asian eyes,
if you haven’t watched it, I will leave the link in the description box below.
Today, I’m going to share with you some basic techniques to draw eyeliner that everyone can apply.
To apply eyeliner more easily, you should put your mirror down here, then look down a little bit.
For those who start learning how to draw eyeliner, you don’t need to create a thick bold liner,
you just need to focus on your lash lines.
After curling up you eyelashes,
I’m going to fill in the inside of your lash line to make it sharper and bolder.
You can clearly see the differences.
So I have just done the eye makeup.
There are only two more steps to go.
They are applying blush and putting on lipstick.
In terms of blush, Asian people in general,
we should not choose a too light or too bold tone.
We should choose shades which are suitable for Asian yellow skin tone like orangish pink, orange, nude orange or peach orange.
The lighter your skin tone is, the brighter shades of blush you can choose.
In contrast, the darker your skin tone is, the bolder shades of blush you should use.
Here I’m choosing this reddish orange color.
It looks pretty bright.
For daily makeup look, you should wear bright shades so as to make your face look awake and fresh.
My face is not too big, I will only focus on the inner parts of my face in order to make my face look brighter and fuller.
For those having round or diamond shaped faces,
you should apply blush from the top of the temple down to the cheekbone.
The final step is to put on lipstick.
This is the last but also the most important step.
Many people say that
leaving the house without lipstick is like going out without wearing clothes.
For everyday makeup look, as the eye makeup is really simple,
I think we should choose some bright colored lipsticks so as to brighten up our face.
If we use trendy shades like nude or orange nude,
we will have to be at a higher level of makeup so that you can create a more complicated eye makeup look.
Otherwise, you skin will appear very sick and pale.
Here, I’m using a classic red lipstick, this type of lipstick color will easily suit different skin tones,
and we can use it in our daily life.
Today, I’m going to apply a matte lipstick.
Personally, I think a matte lipstick is more beautiful than a lip gloss for a daily makeup look.
I think every girl who starts learning how to do makeup
should buy herself a red lipstick.
There are many different shades you can choose such as rich red, dark red, bright red, brick rep or orangish red.
Red lipsticks are the most popular lipsticks
which can be used for every skin tone or makeup look, at any occasions.
I have just finished off the most basic makeup steps for beginners.
I think I should style my hair a bit.
During the whole process, I didn’t mention about applying highlighter or contour
because I think that beginners should temporarily familiarize themselves with these basic makeup techniques first.
Since highlighter and contour application is much more sophisticated,
we will do it unless you are skillful at implementing the above steps.
As you can see, in spite of not applying highlighter or contour, my face still looks beautiful
and I’m ready to go out
I hope after this video ends,
you girls will know how to apply makeup on yourself in a nice and complete way,
so that you can be confident to go out.
I don’t know how long this video will be,
but I have been talking a lot and my throat starts drying out, I need some water.
Let’s end this video here.
