For face: Avoid hard makeup’s that would show your face too shiny as it would be not good for photographs. Oily shine is not attractive. Wash your face well before you apply makeup and use mild facial scrubs.

For cheeks: Neutral rose or golden pink are the best choice to apply in your cheek. Use perfect combination of light bronzer and pink blush.

Eyeliner: Use a standard eyeliner brush and brush your eye shadow over the liner. With pink or rose pencil, line your upper lid right at the lash line. Mixture of grey and copper color is a good combination and it would suit for every one.

Lip liner and Lipstick: Cover the outer line of the lips using dark colour and in inner side use light colour in the same combination.
