Whether you used your first makeup brush playing dress-up in preschool or you’re newer to the whole makeup thing, we\u2019ve all got our beauty habits \u2013 some we could probably do without.<\/p>\n

Beauty influencer and makeup artist Becky Habersberger<\/a> is sharing some of the most common makeup mistakes below.<\/p>\n

Applying products right after skin care<\/strong>
\nFor those with oily or combination skin, it\u2019s important to let your skin care products sink in before applying other products like foundation. If your skin is too moist, the makeup will just slide off. Wait about five to 10 minutes, and if your foundation is wet, you may also want to wait before applying concealer.<\/p>\n

Using a swirling motion to apply foundation<\/strong>
\nRubbing in your foundation like you would a moisturizer just moves it around your face. Instead, tap the foundation into your skin with your finger or use a swirling motion with a brush. It’ll look more natural!<\/p>\n

Using cream products without powder for long wear<\/strong>
\nIf you\u2019re using cream makeup and want it to last, layer it with powder. Powder is your superpower!<\/p>\n

Using mists strictly to hydrate your face<\/strong>
\nWhen the layer of powder is giving you a cakey look, grab a mist. It’ll help break up the powder, leaving it smooth.<\/p>\n

Applying blush below the apples of the cheeks<\/strong>
\nFor a natural sun-kissed look, tap the blush on the apples of your cheeks and blend upward. It’ll give you the most naturally flushed look.<\/p>\n

Adding a bold lip at the end<\/strong>
\nChances are, donning a lipstick or stain is your last step. If you\u2019re going for a red (or any bold) lip, apply it before your blush and eyeshadow to avoid overdoing your makeup.<\/p>\n
