As we discussed in our other articles, you should make sure that your makeup and cosmetics come from a good source, preferably natural or herbal-based, and do not contain crude or harsh chemicals that might damage your skin irreparably and permanently. Honestly speaking, no amount of makeup is too much as long as you choose the right products, as also, have the correct knowledge of blending it well.
When you visit the cosmetic store to collect your favorite makeup, do you also remember to go through the ingredients list for the number of the ingredients that have been used to make the product and make sure that they are all safe for your skin as well as beneficial enough to provide nourishment through your makeup? If yes, then your first step is correct and you are following the right track. Then comes the question as to how knowledgeable yet tactful you are in choosing the perfect colors and brands that go hand in hand with your skin.
According to a well-known and professional makeup artist Savleen Manchanda, “too much makeup is very subjective and a personal choice really, there’s nothing like too much or too little. My effort (and personal choice) as a makeup artist is to make sure that every client’s beauty is enhanced with makeup. However, there’s no denying that using too much product can damage your skin sometimes.
Heavy foundation, baking your foundation and going a tad bit overboard with blush can lead to clogged pores, and when you put layer after layer of product, your wrinkles tend to become more prominent. For instance, fine lines under the eyes appear deeper when you use heavy concealer on it. So, from the maintaining the elasticity and health of your skin perspective, you should allow your skin to breathe and not load it with makeup ever too often. But, when it comes to how you feel, put on as much or as little as you’d need to make you feel comfortable and confident.”
Well, to be very honest, if you discover that instead of you applying makeup, your makeup is wearing your face, then it’s really ‘too much’. In this connection, we must mention that there are several factors, including the structure of your face bones, your skin type, facial features, and of course, a part of your personality are responsible to ascertain how much makeup you can really need to wear. Hence, the ways of wearing makeup vary from person to person.
Taking the above views into consideration, we might keep a few general makeup tips in mind so that it not only enhances your beauty, as also helps you stand out of the crowd:
To conclude, we can say that there is no such thing as ‘too much’ make up, since, when you get a makeover, you are not affecting your own health, or the safety of anyone around you. So you do not need to limit your makeup by deciding what is ‘too much’, or what is ‘too little’, unless you have no medical complaints, and have not been advised by your doctor. You do yourself, and do it fabulously with pride.
