Our makeup artists have compiled a list of their hottest makeup tips with beauty techniques on how to apply makeup and on applying cosmetics in general.
A beautiful makeover begins with finding the right foundation. Most women have yellow based skin. They include most Caucasian and all Asian, Latin and African women.

When women with yellow-based skin wear foundations that are too pink or orange, they often look artificial and two-toned. This is because the undertones in these foundation "clash" with their natural yellow-based skin.

To create naturally flawless skin, you must wear a foundation with a yellow base. Sacha manufactures the only yellow-based foundations in the world. They perfectly match every complexion, leaving skin looking flawless and natural-looking. You never look orangey, pasty or un-natural. When you walk into a room people notice you not make up!

SKIN CARE TIPS
Clear healthy skin is the perfect canvas for makeup. Use Sacha's simple but effective cleansing routine: Cleanse, Tone, Moisturize, Renew.
For excessively oily skin use our Purifying Gel Cleanser to gently wash away the excess oils.
Regardless of skin color or skin type you must use a daily moisturizer with at least SPF 15 sun protection. For dry skin use Sacha's Hydration Plus Daily Moisturizer. For oily skin use Sacha's Hydrating Daily Moisturizer. These moisturizers can be worn alone or as excellent under makeup bases.

FOUNDATION TIPS
For a great makeover you must start with the right foundation. Whereas eye shadow, lipstick, and blusher accent the face, it is the foundation that sets the tone for a woman's appearance. Sacha's foundations are all yellow-based. If you are like most women, you have yellow-based skin and must wear a yellow-based foundation. Our Sacha Foundations are available in cream, liquid, or dual activ (powder and foundation in one). Test foundation on the jawline or forehead.

FACE POWDER TIPS
Set your foundations with a Sacha Loose Powder. Keep your compact powder handy for touch ups during the day. If you 'shine' a lot you should use an oil absorbent powder such as Sacha's Ultra Matte Powders in Light, Medium or Dark.

CHEEK COLOR TIPS
When applying blush use a darker shade to contour your face and "lift" your cheekbones. Apply from the earlobe downward to mid-cheek so you do not leave a"blob"of color on the cheek. Use light colors of blush to highlight.

EYE MAKEUP TIPS
Use Sacha's eye shadows to reflect your every mood. With a bit of practice you can easily master how to apply your eye shadow. When applying eyeshadow, remember that dark colors recede features and light colors highlight.
Apply the lightest shade over the entire eyelid.
Apply the medium shade on the lower eyelid.
Apply the darkest shade in the outer corner of the eye to create depth.
Apply eyeliner with short strokes, starting form the center of the eye and working towards the corners.
Mascara finishes your makeup. If you have dark eyes use black, navy, dark brown or clear mascara.
