Though the basic principle of make-up technique remains the same, but a sense of demand of the occasion is important when you are applying make-up. In day, a heavy make-up looks un-natural and make you odd among others. It is best to wear minimal make-up to give a natural look. Following fundamental rules must be kept in mind while any type of make-up:
* Make-up in natural light coming from a window or under fluorescent lighting. Use a hand mirror for close work, like eye make-up.
* Cleanse tone and moisturize the skin 5 minutes before starting make-up after so that skin settles before make-up.
* Plan your look before beginning and then proceed accordingly.
* Use natural and light make-up in day.
* Use heavy or dark make-up in night.

After concerning above thing start your makeup for day time:
* Moisturize your skin with good moisturizer and blend it evenly on face and neck. Dab compact powder and foundation darker than your skin color.
* Draw a line with a black eyebrow pencil or liquid eye-liner from the inner corner of the eye, keeping in line with the curve of the lower eyelid and going up gradually.
* Apply a little mascara on the eyelashes and finish by applying a smooth eye-shadow. Hint of rouge is sufficient to make your cheeks rosy.
* Now apply lipstick matching your dress and complexion.

* Form a base for make-up with a tinted foundation for a dry skin and pancake for an oily skin.
* Apply Cream rouge or Blush-on on cheek bones, nose, chin and forehead.
* Make a correct color frosted eye-shadow, keeping in view the color of the clothes you are wearing.
* Apply light eye-shadow starting from the middle of your upper lid and finish under the brow end.
