10 Ways on How to Do Cheer Makeup
1. Foundation
Before you start your makeup, you’ll need to apply foundation. This will help to create a smooth canvas for the rest of your makeup. Choose a foundation that matches your skin tone and apply it using a brush or sponge. Blend the foundation into your skin, making sure to cover any blemishes or uneven areas. Next, apply concealer to any areas that need extra coverage.
2. Concealer
Next, use concealer to hide any blemishes or dark circles. Choose a concealer that is one shade lighter than your foundation. Apply it in a triangle shape under your eyes and on any spots that need coverage. Apply your foundation next. Start by dotting it along your forehead, cheeks, and chin. Blend it out with a makeup sponge or brush until it’s even all over your face.
3. Eyebrows
rim and groom your eyebrows using a brow brush and eyebrow gel. You can then fill in bare patches with a brow pencil or powder. Eyes Firstly, apply an eyeshadow primer to help the colour last longer. Then use a creamy shadow stick for the base, blend it out and blend into your crease.
4. Eyes
To put on mascara, first put on two coats of black mascara to define your eyes. Next, use white eyeliner on the inside of your eyes to make them pop. Then, brush pink shadow onto your eyelids using an all-over shadow brush and set it with some translucent powder.
5. Lips
Choose a lipstick that matches your skin tone and apply it using a lip brush. You can then top it with a gloss or lip balm.
6. Contouring
To contour your face, apply a bronzer below your cheekbones and on the sides of your nose. Use a highlighter above your cheekbones, on your forehead, and on the bridge of your nose.
7. Cheeks
Apply powder blush to your cheeks with a brush. Or, you can use cream blush along with the apples on your cheeks. Add bronzer along the bottom of your cheeks for extra dimension and blend it in. Remember, blush should be applied above the cheekbone.
8. Highlighting
Highlight your face by applying a highlighter on the bridge of your nose, top of your cheeks, and on your chin. You can either use cream or powder highlighters. Apply them with a brush across the places that you want to highlight.
9. Glitter
Brush glitter onto your eyelids to make them look extra sparkly. You can either use loose glitter or glitter stickers. Remember, glitter should be used with caution because it can get messy.
10. Tinted Lip Balm
Use a tinted lip balm or gloss on your lips to give them some color. This will prevent the need for overdoing your makeup with too many layers of lipstick which can be clumpy and heavy looking. Now that you know the basics of how to do cheer makeup, you can experiment with different looks and techniques. Have fun with it!
Some Tips and Suggestions
1. Start by applying a light foundation or primer to your face. This will help to create a smooth canvas on which to apply your makeup.
2. Apply a matching shade of cream blush to the apples of your cheeks for just a hint of color.
3. Using an eyeshadow brush or sponge, apply a metallic blue-grey shadow all over the lid and brow bone.
4. Apply a matte white eyeshadow above your eye crease, directly under where you would place your eyebrow.
5. To give your eyes an extra sparkle, apply liquid eyeliner and blue or purple mascara.
6. When you’re finished with the eyes, dust off any excess shadow that may have fallen onto your cheekbones and blend with a matching shade of cream blush so there’s no hard edge between colors.
7. To complete the look, apply a metallic berry blush on the apples of your cheeks and dust lightly with translucent powder to set all of the colors against your skin.
8. Finally, place a thin line of adhesive along your lower lash line and wait for it to become tacky before applying false lashes.
Common Mistakes to Avoid When Doing Cheer Makeup:
1. Not blending your makeup well enough. This can cause a harsh line where your makeup stops and your skin begins.
2. Applying too much blush. This can make you look like a clown, the opposite of what you want when doing cheer makeup.
3. Going too heavy on the eyeshadow. Too much eyeshadow can make your eyes look smaller and very overpowering.
4. Not using enough concealer. This can lead to your makeup looking uneven and sloppy.
5. Not taking into account the lighting. The lighting can either make or break your makeup look, so you need to know how it will affect your makeup application.
6. Not check your work in the mirror before you are finished. Makeup is not an exact science, so the need to check the results of your work on yourself instead of on a piece of paper or another person.
7. Applying foundation first, then applying powder over it rather than blending everything with lots of setting spray and powder.
