Learn How to Snatch with Concealer: Concealer really is the G.O.A.T makeup product. Beyond its ability to conceal any blemishes and nix dark circles, it has snatching superpowers. When applied strategically and with the right shade, it brightens, lifts, and sculpts your complexion like no other. It’s just so creamy and buildable, plus it doesn’t crease.
The secret to snatching lies in the concealer shade and placement. Your snatch shade should be three to five shades lighter than your skin match. By heightening the contrast with your skin, it enhances the brightening while creating natural shadows that give a seriously sculpted final look.
To snatch, apply the concealer to the inner and outer corners of your eyes (extending out towards your temples), on the bridge of your nose, the outer corner of your mouth, and underneath your cheekbones. Always apply in an upward motion, and then blend using small tapping motions, following the same direction (upwards).
Cook Your Concealer for More Coverage
If you want to increase the coverage of any concealer, the trick is to cook with it. No, we don’t mean putting it in the oven. The technique refers to applying your concealer to the areas you want to target, then leaving it for between one to three minutes before you blend it out – experiment to see which timing works best with your formula and the level of coverage you want.
Essentially, this ‘drying’ time allows the concealer to start setting into your skin, which means that when you go to blend, it’s almost semi-dry and doesn’t disappear into your skin or blender. You want to catch it just before it completely sets so that you’re still able to blend it. It’s magical!

Best makeup tips. Some of these hacks you’ll know, and others will be new, but trust us, these are the beauty hacks EVERYONE should know! Tried, tested, and approved by yours truly.
Always Prep your Skin to Create the Ultimate Makeup Base.
The bottom line is, your beat will never be its best without prepping your skin first. It’s just a fact.
If you skip these two essential steps, your makeup is more likely to settle into fine lines or collect in dry and flakey areas rather than be perfectly smooth.
It also helps your makeup stay in place for longer.
Step 1: Exfoliation is key, as this will help create a smooth canvas for makeup application and melt away any dead skin while leaving your skin brighter than before.
Step 2: The next step is hydration. Start with a plumping serum.
For the under eye area, we love using the eye lift and contour serum, as it’s super lightweight and hydrating, but it also firms the lids and under eye area for a smooth finish. Then, we seal in all that glazed hydration with the moisturizer, It sounds simple, but it’s one of those make-or-break steps.
Use Ice Water to Depuff and Tighten Your Pores.
This has to be one of the easiest (and cheapest) skincare hacks EVER. It’s pretty simple, just a little chilly. All you have to do is splash your face with ice-cold water for around one minute.
It mimics the effect of the coveted facial,
AKA utilizing cold temperatures to encourage blood flow, soothe inflammation, and depuff your skin…
hello cheekbones! It also tightens the appearance of pores and just makes your skin look really bright and alive. Sign us up!
How to give yourself an ice facial: Prepare a bowl of ice cubes, submerge them in water, and allow the ice to melt for a few minutes. Now, you can either splash your face with the cold water or take a deep breath and dip your face in for about 20 seconds at a time. Make sure you move your face about so every inch experiences that icy rush.

Beginner Steps to Applying Makeup Before you even reach for makeup, it’s crucial that you prep your skin with skincare. “Always cleanse and moisturize for your skin type,” “Makeup will never lay properly without it.” When your skin isn’t properly prepped, you won’t be able to achieve an even flawless finish. Instead, your foundation will look heavy and gravitate toward the dry parts of your complexion while your concealer gets cake-y.
2. Apply Primer
Not all primers are created equal, so to achieve the best results, it’s best to select the right primer for your skin type. If you need help picking the perfect primer. If you use a heavy hand, the primer will start to ball or pill (not the look we’re going for). Instead, focus a thin coat on your forehead, cheeks, and chin. “This will allow it to blur and mattify in these areas (a.k.a. the T-zone), which are usually the areas that are the oiliest.”
3. Grab Your Foundation and Concealer
Now that your skin is prepped and primed, you can start applying your makeup. While typically you should start with foundation first and then concealer, there are certain instances where you’ll want to reach for concealer first.
Dab a few dots of foundation on your T-zone, focusing on your forehead, nose, cheeks, and chin. Next, use a foundation brush to blend it in. While you can also certainly use a makeup sponge or even your fingers, using a foundation brush is quick and easy, making it a great option for beginners (and anyone who’s looking to simplify their makeup routine). To achieve a natural finish, start with a small amount of product and blend up and out.
Now that your foundation is applied, you’re ready to apply concealer. Focus on any areas you want to conceal: under the eyes, around the nostrils, and any blemishes or dark spots. When it comes to covering up, it’s important to dab, never drag.
Spot apply on blemishes and lightly dab, using either your ring finger, a concealer brush, or sponge. To conceal under the eyes, draw two inverted triangles under your eyes and blend the edges into your foundation by lightly dabbing. Not only is the upside-down triangle technique pretty foolproof, but it also brightens up the entire face, contributing to a gorgeous glow.
4. Set Your Base
Swipe a brush or velvet puff into your setting powder, and tap it to remove any excess. You want to ensure it’s evenly covered before you apply it to your complexion. Next, press it into your face to ensure you don’t move your makeup around in the application process. Focus on areas that often seem to need a touch-up throughout the day (typically the T-zone). If you have a special occasion ahead of you or you just want to create a more airbrushed finish, you can also “bake” your makeup.
5. Create Dimension
Contour comes in powder, liquid, and cream formulas, with powder being the most foolproof, making it ideal for beginners. Using an angled brush, focus on the areas you want to create dimension. Next, place contour under the cheekbones, around your hairline, and on the sides of your nose.
When it comes time to apply highlighter, focus on the “high” points of your face that the sun would naturally hit. “Adding highlighter above cheekbones, by the eyebrow arch, down the bridge of the nose and blending very well will give the most realistic dimension,” While highlighter comes in a variety of forms, a powder highlighter is easiest to use if you’re a beginner. To apply, dip your brush in the powder and tap it to remove excess powder. Next, lightly glide it over the high points mentioned above.
6. Add Back Some Color
When selecting the right bronzer, be sure not to go more than a shade or two darker than your regular complexion. Once you have selected your shade, you’re ready to begin bronzing. Using a fluffy brush, blend bronzer around your hairline, on your cheekbones, and on your jawline. The easiest way to remember this? Just think of the number three. For a flawless application, draw a number three on your face, starting at your hairline and then continuing down to your cheekbones before rounding it out under your jawline. Blend in circular, sweeping motions for a flawless finish, and dust some on the bridge of your nose to complete your sun-kissed glow.
When it comes to blush, it’s best to select a hue that brings out your skin’s natural undertone. Next, using a brush, apply blush to the apples of your cheeks to create a subtle, natural-looking flush, moving your brush in circular motions to blend as you go. If you’re unsure where the apples of your cheeks lie, simply smile!
7. Focus on Your Eye Makeup
When it comes time to apply eye makeup, the choice is really up to you. Do you want to create a natural makeup look for the day? A smoky eye for date night? Do you feel like trying your hand at the edgy negative space liner for drinks with friends? Depending on where you’re headed and what you plan on wearing, you can tailor your eye makeup to match your mood. Rely on your eyeshadow, eyeliner, and mascara to create the perfect glam.
Once you’ve applied your eyeshadow, you can move on to your eyeliner.
Brows deserve attention all on their own. You can either make your brows look fuller or enhance your natural shape using a variety of products, like brow pencils, powders, or gels. If you aren’t sure which product is right for you, stick to these guidelines: Use a pencil for the most natural-looking approach that mimics your real hair. Use a brow powder if you want to fill in sparse spots. And finally, whip out the brow gel when you need to keep unruly brows in place.
8. Swipe on Your Lip Products
If using a lip primer, prep lips before you begin. Next, use your lip liner to outline your mouth. This is where you can also contour and create the illusion of a larger pout by simply lining slightly over your lips. Next, fill in your lips with your liner. Use this as an outline and apply your lipstick.
With these expert tips, the right products, and a little practice you’re ready to take your makeup routine to the next level.

Don’t miss your chance
The Lipstick Makeup Institute giving BIG DISCOUNT on our Professional Makeup Course.
Don’t miss such a great opportunity and book your seat now 6 students in a group.
The last couple of days were really fun and successful. A student enrolled for the self makeup application course for 2 days and we had an amazing time with her.
At first, she didn’t know much about makeup and brought her own makeup. From there, we assessed her things and checked if they were the right products for her to become successful. Thankfully, she had a few brushes that were fine, and powder, bronzers, blush and lipsticks that were right for her complexion. Apart from that, the only items that were incorrect were her foundation and eyeshadows.
At first, I taught her a few theoretical aspects of makeup before we headed onto creating makeup looks.
On the first day, we did practice work for Day Makeup. I taught her how to put her makeup on, which brushes to use, how to shape her eyebrows and lips.
On the second and last day of the Self Application Makeup Course, we did a review of the Day Makeup Look and Transitioned it to Evening Makeup and Party Makeup. She was able to do her own makeup with some guidance.
Learning how to put your own makeup is very important especially because appearance in the workplace is essential. When looking for a job, the first thing an employer looks at is someones photograph. In a job interview, a person’s appearance is something someone checks out.
When working in the service business, it’s important to have your makeup done impeccably so that your clients will feel at ease when you talk to them.
Here, at the Lipstick Makeup Institute, we’ll help you land your dream job by helping you in guiding you with your makeup — be it for your workplace, or for a date night. We’re here for you.

Lipstick Makeup Institute Students First Fashion show
This took place @ V11 last week.
SORAYA B. COUTURE AND VAROIN MARWAH AW 2018 FASHION SHOW
Last Friday, June 22 2018, we were able to collaborate with a couple of wonderful designers, SORAYA B. COUTURE and VAROIN MARWAH at VII DUBAI in Conrad Hotel. In cooperation with Fashion TV, our students from the Lipstick Makeup Institute created the looks for the models before they marched their way into the runway. The beautiful models came out with a mixture of blinding gold highlights and fuschia pink cheeks Avant Garde looks.
With the guidance of one of our teachers and the coordinator, the students were challenged to finish their makeup look within 10-15 mins per model in their first ever fashion show.
The YH Studios crew also took photos and videos for the event.
Models lining up to get their looks done.
It was a jam-packed show. The models adorning the designs by Soraya and Varoin gleamed on the cat-walk.
They owned it as they felt so confident in their attire. Shining bright with Soraya’s gowns and make up that gave them confidence to hold their heads up high.
The students are in their last week of training. 6 weeks of intensive training. They started with not much knowledge and now they are leaving with so much that they are bursting at the seams.
They are ready to tackle the outside world and start using all that they have learnt along the way.
They covered everything from the no makeup look to special effects. One end of the spectrum to the next!
I am so so proud of them that I could cry! It always makes me so happy. I love my students!!
We are all really please to be asked to participate in the Dubai modest Fashion Week.
Its an amazing event. The first time to be held in the UAE to be held here. It has ben showcased in London, Istanbul and New York, sop not such a small event.
It was influcted with influencers, bloggers and amazing designers. It is the first time that The Lipstick Make Up Institute has been involved in a fashion Show with predominantly hijabs.
The models looked just so beautiful and elegant in the Beautiful designs all ver elegant for Dubais Modest Fashion Week.
There were so many designers that came to Dubai just for this event from all over the world.
As usual, The Lipstick Make Up Institute Teams just love Fashion Shows. We thrive on the adrenalin and the rush of the exciting challenges that the days bring. We love the pressure and th dramatic changes from designer to designer.
This time though there were not too may changes as it the Title of the Show says, The Modern Fashion Show! so hence the makeup had also to be minimalistic and not so pronounced. Delicate and flawless makeup was the dominant feature of the shows. This was so not to take anything away from the designers and the clothes.
I never knew that there so many ways to wear a hijab and look so cool. The clothes were very , ” now” and so in with fashion, we were all so impressed. The fashion world is complimenting each continent and blending from East to west and north to south and the results of this are shown on the runway.
