Applying makeup correctly for beginners
How to apply make-up or foundation correctly so that it looks natural and not painted on.
Would you like to use make-up but you are not a make-up professional and do not know how to apply it correctly so that it looks natural and not painted on? It is very easy, here you can see how it is done!
As soon as you have found the right make-up for you, i.e. in the right color, coverage, texture and finish, you can get started straight away. If you don't have the right make-up yet, we can recommend the Firming Make-Up .
It adapts to your skin tone and looks completely natural.
There are 3 ways you can apply your makeup:
With a brush
However, we would not recommend this, as the face often looks like it has been puttied afterwards and streaks often remain on the skin.
With a sponge
With your fingers
Make-up tip: Less is more! You can often achieve a better, more natural finish by using just a little bit of colour. So start by using just a little bit and spread it well. You can always add more.
There are many different types of sponges, all of which work well. It is important that you do not apply the make-up with a sponge in a sweeping motion, but rather press the color onto the skin with dabbing movements. This will give you a very nice result. However, it also takes a long time because you have to dab very carefully.
With your fingers
The third and easiest option is your fingers! They are the best tool for applying make-up! Why? Because it is the quickest in the morning. The warmth of your fingers means the colour can be worked in very well and you can reach all parts of your face very easily with your fingers, including around your nose. You also don't need to buy a sponge, so you can save money and you don't have to wash out the sponge or brush, which is always a bit time-consuming. After applying, just wash your hands and you're done.
First, put some make-up on the back of your hand so that there is not too much colour on your fingers. Then take a very small amount of colour and apply the make-up from the middle of the face, but not directly on the nose, and spread it outwards and over the nose.
Now you can alternate between stroking and patting. It is best to pat and press in areas where there are wrinkles and large pores. You can simply spread the make-up on the large areas of the face such as the cheeks and forehead.
Make-up tip: If you have a lot of facial hair, you should definitely not rub the make-up in circular movements like you would with cream. This is because the make-up will then get under the hairs and raise them, making them even more visible. It is therefore better to apply from top to bottom. This way the hairs will be laid flat against the skin and will not be so noticeable.
Then spread it from the bridge of the nose over the T-zone and smooth it out to the hairline. Then spread it down to the neck without adding any extra color.
Make-up tip: Less is more! You can often achieve a better, more natural finish by using just a little bit of colour. So start by using just a little bit and spread it well. You can always add more.
We are often asked whether you should also avoid makeup above the eyes.
If it's not necessary, then don't. Only if the area has redness or spots, then you can apply a little bit of make-up there.
If it's not necessary, then don't. Only if the area has redness or spots, then you can apply a little bit of make-up there.
Finally, pat the area around the nose again and check the wrinkles around the eyes. Then smooth the make-up downwards so that no edges are visible.
And your make-up is ready! It's that easy!
Tip: Use the Firming Make-Up . It is a shade that adapts very well to the skin, leaves no marks on the face, covers very well and still looks completely natural. It does not rub off on a white blouse and feels very comfortable on the skin all day long.

Hallo Jitka,
du kannst gerne eine Tagescreme unter dem Make up tragen, es ist aber je nach Hauttyp nicht notwendig. Unser Firming Make up ist sehr feuchtigkeitsspendend, daher kannst du es auch ohne Tagescreme vorab auftragen. Solltest du eine Tagescreme darunter tragen, lasse diese gut einziehen, bevor du das Make up aufträgst
Viele Grüße dein COSLINE Team

@BEATE. S- Es kommt auf den Hauttyp an. Bei trockener Haut kann es hilfreich sein, vor dem Auftragen des Make-ups eine Tagescreme zu verwenden, um die Haut ausreichend zu pflegen und zu hydratisieren. Wenn deine Haut normal oder ölig ist, könnte es sein, dass du keine zusätzliche Feuchtigkeitscreme benötigst.
Liebe Grüße Cindy von COSLINE

@IRMGARD SCHUERGERS Vielen Dank für dein positives Feedback zu den Produkten von Cosline! Um Lippenfältchen optimal zu kaschieren, empfehle ich dir, zunächst einmal ein Concealer oder eine feuchtigkeitsspendende Lippenpflege aufzutragen. Anschließend kannst du das Make-Up mit einem kleinen Pinsel oder einem Lippenpinsel auf die betroffene Stelle tupfen und sanft verblenden. Dadurch wird die Farbe gleichmäßig verteilt und die Fältchen werden weniger betont. Ich hoffe, das hilft dir weiter!
Liebe Grüße Cindy von COSLINE

Tag Cosline Team,
Ich bin schon lange auf der suche nach Schminkprodukten für meinen empfindliche und trockene Haut.
Ich habe schon lange trockene und empfindliche Haut, aber nach der Chemotherapie hat sich das ganze noch mehr verschlimmert.
Meine Frage an euch ist, ob ich
kleine Proben bekommen kann?
Schöne Grüße
Maria.

@Petra Abends kannst du unser Make-Up mit herkömmlichen Abschminkmitteln oder mit unserem sanften Reinigungsschaum abschminken.

Hallo COSLINE Team, ich habe überlege ob ich das Firming Make up ab und zu benutzen soll, da ich keine Erfahrung mit Make up habe wollte ich fragen ob man es abends entfernen muss.? Danke für die Antwort. Gruß Petra Olbrich.

Bin sehr zufrieden mit allen Produkten von Cosline. Meine Frage zum Make-Up: Wie trage ich es am besten bei Lippenfaeltchen auf? Ganz ohne Make-Up ist die Stelle zu hell, mit Make-Up werden die Faeltchen betont. Liebe Grüße, ii.Schuergers
