Makeup for beginners: practical first steps

If you are searching for beginner makeup lessons or online beauty training in Yerevan, start with the sequence rather than an elaborate look. Your first goal is to prepare the skin, apply a light base and understand controlled colour blending.

Prepare the skin and build a light base

Follow your usual suitable skincare routine before applying a small amount of foundation. Blend from the centre outward, checking your result in natural light. There is no need to start with a thick layer.

Try this: apply a light base to one area and compare the edges in daylight.

Get to know your brushes

A few basic tools are enough to practise foundation, powder, eyeshadow and blending. Keep tools clean, and use separate or sanitised tools when working with another person.

Try this: blend the edge of one eyeshadow using a clean, fluffy brush.

What to learn next

Once the base feels familiar, practise brows, blush and a simple eye look. More defined evening makeup calls for additional blending and placement skills.
