Welcome to Imperfect Success:  the podcast teaching success-driven perfectionists how to achieve their goals imperfectly!

 

Today we’re sitting down with a Professional New York City makeup artist, Kaley Were! 

 

Kaley shares insider tips to help anyone – from total beginners to seasoned pros – create beautiful, glowing makeup looks with confidence and ease. You’ll learn Kaley’s favorite products, application techniques, and tricks for accentuating your best features. Whether you want an everyday look or jaw-dropping glam, Kaley’s 15 pro tips will help you get gorgeous results.

 

5 Key Takeaways:

  1. Invest in a few high-quality multipurpose makeup products instead of lots of cheap ones. A little goes a long way!

  2. Use opposite colors on the color wheel to make your eyes pop. For blue eyes, choose bronzy browns. For brown eyes, opt for blues and greens, etc.

  3. Apply matte shadows in the crease and shimmery shades on the lid to add dimension to the eyes.

  4. Choose lip colors that complement your natural undertones for a flattering, “my lips but better” effect.

  5. Blending skincare ingredients into your makeup gives you healthy-looking, glowing skin! Look for primers and foundations with hyaluronic acid.
