Makeup Ideas for 2018

Homemade foundation

To make this base of homemade makeup we will base the cornstarch, and we will gradually add cocoa powder and cinnamon to get the right tone. It can be stored in any covered container, although the difficulty is in getting the right skin tone. If we want the base to be more solid we can put a few drops of vodka or essential oil, which will make it a compact base.

For a slightly more complicated but equally effective formula, we need two tablespoons of cornstarch, 2 tablespoons of mica sericite, one teaspoon of silk peptide, 1/4 teaspoon of magnesium separate, 1 teaspoon of kaolin and 20 drops of oil. Jojoba we will mix it and we will get to our color by adding red, yellow and brown oxides.

We also leave this video where he explains another very good way to make makeup:

For the bronzer, the process is the same as in the makeup base but with a higher concentration of cinnamon and cocoa powder, so that it is a darker shade. On the other hand, if we want a pink shade for the blush, we can use a spray of dehydrated beet or hibiscus

Eyeliner and eyeshadow

For homemade eyeshadows we can add the colors using cocoa powder -plants-, spiraling -green- or arrowroot -light tone-. If we want daring orange shades we can mix saffron with beet juice.

For the eyeliner, we can use half of the coconut oil and half of the cocoa powder in the case of brown eyeliner, if we want a black and penetrate one we will replace the cocoa with a little-activated carbon.

If we want, we can also make kohl, we will pour half a teaspoon of mustard oil into a lamp, we will place the metal plate on the top of the plant, we will put a wick, we will keep it overnight in a place where it does not blow wind. Finally, we will mix it with oil until it has an adequate consistency, and refrigerate it for three hours.

Mascara is a bit more complicated to prepare. To do this we need a few drops of aloe verge, two drops of vitamin E oil and a pinch of activated charcoal. We must bear in mind that we need to clean the brush immediately after each use.

Lipstick

To make a lip balm we need beeswax and an oil, which can be grape, olive or almond. We melt it, putting more wax if we want it thicker and more oil if we look for something softer. If we want to keep it for longer, we will use vitamin E oil. We can use it when it is cold.

Do you see that it is not that difficult to prepare your own homemade makeup? I hope you try some of these recipes and tell me how it worked for you. Personally, I love the base, the tanning powder, and the shadows, because they leave a beautiful finish on the skin.
