1. Neglecting to moisturize
Before starting your makeup, it is important for you to moisturize your skin first. When you apply a moisturizer before makeup, the makeup products works properly on your skin and the makeup looks clean and prominent.
However, if one forgets to apply moisturizer, then the consequences can be horrible. For instance, the skin looks very dry, dull and uneven. There will be no shine on your skin and the makeup you apply will be useless. So, do not forget to apply the moisturizer first as it is the key for an unspoiled makeup look.
2. Choosing the wrong foundation

It is not easy to choose the right foundation – it definitely requires a lot of experiment, in order to get to know the right color.

3. Filling eyebrows excessively
Eyebrows have an important role in the overall appearance. The shading of the eyebrows requires the right color and often women fill their brows excessively which results in an unpleasant look. If your eyebrows are light, then you can choose one shade darker. However, if you want to give your eyebrows a natural look, then you must select a lighter shade. A brow styler can come in handy.
4. Dark blush colors
It is not easier to identify which blush color you should use and which to avoid. For that purpose, you must go for the one that looks perfect on your skin tone. You can test several color shades on your skin.
The best blush on is the one which gives a shiny natural look to your skin. Avoid using dark shades of blush-on until and unless you have expertise over it. On the other hand, blush-on having light colors are easier to apply.

If you have a bulky face or unbalanced skin, then nothing can help you better to reshape your face than contouring. While applying contour, you must pay special attention to the amount you choose to apply.
6. Food and makeup
Many women ruin their makeup while eating food, like burgers, wraps or sandwiches. Eating sandwiches can rub off your lipstick or even spread the lipstick all around your lips.

8. Neglecting the use of corrector
As you grow older, you definitely need to change your choice of makeup.
