if your going to use all of those start with the concealer, blend it over your blemishes. i suggest you use a liquid foundation because it lasts the longest. use a foundation sponge to blend it all over your face. then apply bronzer and then a sheer blush to keep it from looking muddy. after that finish off with a sheer powder to hold everything in place. that is alot of make up! so if you wanted to go lighter i would use a tinted moisturizer and a sheer blush or powder.

You really need to be a litttle morwe specifc in your question but nevertheless Ill try. First find your right colors. You want to look airbrushed and that requires the time and work. So you want to get a base, that is the same as your skin, a concealer that is 1 shade lighter. Foundation that blends and a press powder. Since your arent a pro us ethe conceler first then, base, foundation, then use the press powder. The press powder is what will give u the airbrushed look. So apply to the t- zone first( eyes nose forhead. Then even out the rest of the face using that as a guideline. Only apply conceler to blemishes and around eyes or unwanted facial lines Good look

Right. First step is choosing the right color. Put it on your jawline and walk outside. It has to be the same color as the rest of your skin. For concealer, if you are going to use it to cover dark circles under the eyes and/or zits, you want one that is a bit yellow-er looking than your foundation. Something that looks like it would make you look a bit sick works well just on top of zits and dark circles.
Then clean your face as you normally would, tone, and put on moisturizer. Yes, even if you have oily skin. In that case, you'll be putting on a shine-control lotion like L'Oreal Pure Zone. Apply the foundation with a foundation sponge (little wedges they sell at the drugstore) or with your fingers. Put on a light, even coat. Do not put it on your eyes (it will make eyeshadow run later).
Some makeup artists say that concealer should go before the foundation, but I personally apply it after. It is best to apply concealer with a little brush, cause if you pat it on with your fingers on top of a zit, for example, you'll just be rubbing it off the zit.
Now dust your entire face with loose powder, going downward (so it doesn't make the little hairs on your face stand) using a big powder brush. You'll have perfect skin.

i havent mastered the airbrush look yet, but i usually just use the basics:
--foundation - I dont put it all over my face. I just use it to even out my complexion and take away whatever redness I have. Also, if you have an acne or breakout problem, put your concealer on after foundation so that it wont smudge or go anywhere else.
--loose powder - I cover my whole face with this. I use a big brush and sweep it all over to take away any oily spots and also to set my foundation and whatever concealer i have used.
--mascara - I curl my lashes with an eye lash curler and then I apply mascara.
--eye liner - I just put my eye liner on the bottom lash line...and then i squint my eyes shut so that the color will transfer some to the top lashes. Its alot easier than lining the top lashes as well, i think anyways.
--eye shadow - i just use a golden brown color and it really brings out my eyes, but you can use whatever color you want.
--blush - I just add enough to make my cheeks have some pinkish glow to them.
--lips - I use a sheer gloss or neutral color.
Hope this helps you out!

first find a shade that matches your skin tone but have your concealer a little lighter than your foundation shade. if you're trying to cover up pimples use green concealer so it can minimize redness and use a lavender concealer for under eye circles. then put on the foundation with your fingertips or a sponge and make sure to blend well, you can also try a tinted moisturizer for a more natural look. idk what other stuff you're talking about but hope this helps! :)

I usually put on only black eyeliner and black eye mascara for eyelashes and lipgloss on lips.This procedure takes 10 minutes. I have white fece and golden brown eyes, so I look with my light make-up really atractive.

Rule for foundation, DO NOT BRUSH DOWN THE FOUNDATION! ALWAYS BRUSH IT UP, UP YOUR CHEEK.
