编辑点评：化妆可是一门细活，熟练工可能也要花上半个小时，何况是初学者呢？

这里有一些基本的化妆技巧，是由曾为英国达人和X Factor选秀选手化妆的职业彩妆师介绍的哦。

Should you apply primer on top of freshly cleansed skin or on top of moisturiser?

应该先涂隔离霜还是在保湿霜上面再涂隔离霜？

Primer is a protective layer that seals in moisturiser and provides a smooth surface for foundation.

隔离霜主要是在上粉底之前起一个保护性作用。

If you have an oily complexion, you may feel that the primer without moisturiser is enough.

如果你是油性皮肤，也许直接涂隔离霜感觉比较好。

My routine is more about colour- correcting, treating and highlighting the skin.

A product that gives you an immaculate canvas is a pore minimiser, which would be my equivalent to a primer.

我的做法更注重脸部的色调，也就是调整、修复、强调肤色。

能让面部肌肤平滑无暇的护肤产品能起到收缩毛孔的作用，我会用它来代替隔离霜。

What’s the best way to apply foundation to get a smooth, even coverage?

如何上粉底才能让皮肤看上去最光洁？

Fingers for a cream foundation, a sponge for liquids and a brush for mineral powder.

粉底霜就用手指涂抹，如果是液体粉底，用海绵块，粉状的话最好用小刷子。

How can you get a lovely, healthy glow using bronzer without looking unnatural?

如何用古铜色腮红让自己看上去可爱又健康，但又不至于显得很不自然？

Never overload your brush, and match texture to texture.

A cream or gel is perfect over liquid foundation, for example.

不要施之过重，而且注意要和其他化妆品协调。

比如说，如果用的是液体粉底，就要用腮红膏或者腮红啫喱。

How can you break out of a colour rut with eye shadow?

如何用眼影来造成醒目的颜色对比？

Go for a eye make-up palette that combines a few of your safer, familiar tones with a range of new colours.

眼影调色板中应该有你最常用也最适合的色调一致，在此基础上选择新的色调。

Can you define your mouth and get long-lasting colour that doesn't look too fake?

如何画唇线，并且让唇线颜色持久不变，同时看上去又不觉得做作？

Apply lipstick by dabbing with your finger to create the shape.

The colour will look far more natural.

用手指蘸着唇膏画出唇线，这样唇线看上去更自然。
