When it comes to makeup for men, it really depends on what look you are going for. We will today review the look mostly used on make up for men so that you too may benefit from the amazing tools women have been using for centuries!
Well, to be honest, it is only in the past 200 years or so that make up for men has been a taboo topic unless you were David Bowie or Gene Simmons, but before this it was completely acceptable and mandatory in high end circles that men too got their faces touched up by powders. But enough about that, this is the 21st century and the make up for men is of course completely different now!

THE NATURAL LOOK
In the days of the metrosexual man, it is only natural that he too wants to enhance on his looks and facial features with the help from make up for men. After all, a little makeup for men often looks better than Botox or any form of surgery. For a man that wants a natural look, he should be working with no more than 4 products.

Foundation/Tinted moisturizer
Concealer
Sun Powder
Nude eyeliner

We recommend to start off with the foundation or tinted moisturizer and apply a thin layer all over the face and down the neck- don´t forget the ears and behind them! The color is of course extremely important. Men tend to need a slighter darker foundation than women as their skin is not as much protected, but it really depends. The best idea is to go see a professional makeup artist at your local Mac store that can help you pick the perfect color and texture.

The concealer goes on next, and should be a tone lighter than the foundation. Apply it right under the eyes and blend it out towards the nose and the cheek bone. Never leave any edges!

Sun Powder can be applied sparsely for a natural makeup look for men. Apply it very lightly first across the forehead along the hairline, under the cheek bone and along the jaw and slightly down the neck. This way you are defining instead of just bronzing. After your line is made, you can add a little bit extra where needed.

The nude eyeliner is perfect for make up for men, as it really opens the eyes without adding any color. Apply it well along the inner wet line and in the inner eye corner. It is preferable to apply it in good time before leaving the house, as it looks better when it is a little worn out. You can also go over with your finger to smudge it out if you are in a hurry.
