How To Apply Makeup To Perform A LIVE In Quarantine Time

We know that more and more people present their products and services to us through social networks in the format of virtual LIVE. You do not have to be a television professional to do it, however, if it is very important that your makeup is adequate so that with the lights and the image capacity of the electronic media you use, you look perfect.

We speak with makeup and hair expert Haime Camacho from Avant Garde Salon and Spa and whom we can continually see giving us great advice on makeup and hair care through their networks.

“In order to present a virtual LIVE in addition to having good diction, you must have the right makeup. This is because if you use an unsuitable shade or an incorrect application of makeup, you detract from your presentation,”said Haime.

"It is very important that you know how to do your makeup well," he adds. EYE is not the same to apply makeup to go outside, to stand in front of a light and a camera. You must first consider: the gloss, the light, the light and dark, the bright shadows, the texture of the make-up base… all these things make a big difference if we know how to use them”, added the expert.

The most practical tips to get perfect on your LIVE

1. Start by using a foundation that covers all your blemishes. It is important that you show smooth skin with a velvety touch. Apply the product with a makeup sponge. The important thing is that you show radiant, hydrated, matte and even skin.
2. Then it's important that you use a matting powder to provide optimal coverage, set your makeup, and most importantly, control shine on your skin. I recommend applying the powder with a pad using semicircular movements.
3. Now, use your illuminator and give light to the key points of your face. These are: forehead, nostrils, lip corners and chin. Try to blur the product with the help of your fingers and small touches. Then, fix with matifying powder . There should be no trace of redness or blemishes!
4. Finally, use your favorite blush and bring a soft touch of it to your cheeks. Don't exaggerate with color! Simply put your brush on the apples of your cheeks and make rounded movements so that the color appears healthy and natural.
5. Regarding the eyes: I always recommend using matte shades with nude tones. Try to mark the crease of your upper eyelid to add more depth to your look. Then select an eyeliner and draw a fine line flush with your lashes. For a more feline look, finish your line with a rising corner that shows your most seductive and glamorous part. As a final touch, apply mascara to make them look long, curved. If you opt for false eyelashes, try to make them look natural.
6. The lips; give an intense touch of color to your lips. EYE, they do not look dry, brittle or lack color, so hydrate them well and give them a radiant color in three steps: 1. Outline them with the lipstick-like color, 2. Apply the color to your lips. 3: Apply the hydrating shine balm.
7. Finish with a touch that will make your makeup look radiant and long-lasting throughout the presentation. Try a makeup fixing spray. IMPORTANT, if you have never used this type of product, do it before virtual LIVE, to see how it works for you. This is not the time to experiment. Take care that this fixative is NOT made from oils, and that it is translucent. With this your makeup will last longer without losing its freshness.
