by What do Jennifer Lopez, Kim Kardashian and Salma Hayek have in common? Huge Super Star Status, yes, but they also share the talents of one of the most sought-after men in the beauty business: the 41-year-old Albanian-American visagist Mario Dedivanovic.
His usual glamor takes two hours to carry out, from the foundation to bronzers to complicated eyelashes. While this works in front of the Met Gala, it is for those among us who only have a few minutes to apply a small lipstick in the morning. Fortunately, Dedivanovic’s own range, make -up by Mario, is pleasantly uncomplicated. As a best -selling brand at Sephora, its range is so good that you can often find its eyeshadow and foundations of the dozen in the kits of other leading makeup artists (this is a good sign).
He just knows how best to look over 35. So while we cannot use a lengthy routine and a dozen make-up products to perform a complete glamorous look, Dedivanovic insists that some simple tricks can make the difference. Here are his fastest and most harmful advice to make better make-up.
Skin preparation
“Well-hydrated skin is the key to every good make-up look. So always start with a very dirty moisture cream on your skin, depending on your skin type,” says Mario. He likes the cream and the rich cream from luxury skin care stark Augustinus Bader, but if your budget does not extend into the hundreds, there is another excellent moisturizer from Make-Up-Food from Weleda. Do not worry about the primer: “A good, hydrated basis enables your foundation to apply wonderfully, and the moisturizer also enables the make-up better on the skin.”

Concealer and bronzer
Two of the products that Mario swears for every complexion is a concealer and bronzer. The trick is to use them correctly. “If you have a highly pigmented concealer, you need far less than you think,” he says. “Point where you see shadows and mix it gently with your finger or brush instead of applying a huge concealer under your eyes or over your cheeks. You need less and less than you think, and a modern concealer doesn’t need much powder to put it.” With this technology you can also skip the foundation.
Next, the product Mario believes that every woman can benefit from any age: a good bronzer. “If you add some warmth to the face, find the difference. So find for a cream -colored texture that melts into the skin and apply in thin layers to the tips of the cheeks and temples,” he adds. His soft sculptum transformation is excellent and one of the most natural looking bronze on the market.

Frame the eyes
Eyes with hood? No problem. The eyes, without fear of transferring make-up, to the eyelids is something that Mario specializes in. To do this, apply a gel eyeliner to the upper waterline so that you have the illusion of thicker eyelashes at the root. “You can also wing the corner a little without making a full film,” he adds.
As for Mascara and especially when you have fine or sparse eyelashes, “prefer the root of the eyelashes and wiggle the brush to the left and right to saturate the roots of the eyelashes,” says Mario. “Then turn the brush vertically and run it over the eyelashes from side to side.” Eyebrows should also be filled with a slight touch: “Concentrate for a simple, natural look on the outer half of the forehead and easily expand the brows. Stay away from the inner half of the forehead, as this can take a closer look. “
Add some color
For Mario with a lipstick and a blush in a color to which they are drawn to (and not a shadow think You should wear) is a great way to give your appearance some “vitality and healthy youthfulness”, he says. The golden rule for lipstick or shine is always anchored with a lipstick “to create the shape of the lips and to improve the lips as far as possible. A liner always ensures that your lipstick does not slide either.” If you are not sure whether the color of the lip stone can choose, one or two tones are deeper than your natural lip color a great starting point.
Mario is a big fan of cream textures. “Brake cream blinds give the appearance of jump and pillows on the skin,” he says. If you are tired of creme blades that slide or disappear on the skin, you will be at lunchtime “Use it on the skin after If you powder your face, “says Mario. The bonus?
