This week, Makeup Gourmet Chris Scott, continues his new series of how-to makeup video tutorials. Deposit Technique.
Deposit is a technique for applying powder based products such as eye shadow, translucent powder, powder blush etc to the face that gives the artist maximum control.
Deposit a thin layer of translucent pressed powder appropriate for the skin tone of the model over the whole eye area where eye shadow base has been applied.
By doing every step of your makeup application in this specific manner, people see less makeup and more you. That is the point, to be authentically beautiful.
Note: This series of video tutorials is organized in a specific order of application. It is not necessary to do every step when you do your makeup but I do suggest you follow the order of the videos and skip the steps that don’t apply to you.
Please let me know if this blog was of value to you and share your own Authentic Beauty Makeup tips in the comments box below. I would love to hear how you get on trying this new method of makeup application – tell me how useful you find the tutorials and how you found the results. You can also use the comments box to tell me what interests and concerns you when it comes to which makeup colors to choose. Please let me know so I can fashion future blogs that are relevant and interesting to you.

Warmly,
Chris Scott
