To apply make-up well, it's best to do it under a natural source. This is because it lights up every corner of your face, allowing you to apply your make-up evenly and with a lighter hand as colours appear better. When applying make-up in dim light, shadows are cast on the face therefore you have a tendency to overdo it.
However at night, when you can't order the sun to come out, you can mimic natural light with the help of frosted bulbs as they give off light that is soft and warm. Stay clear of fluorescent lights as the bluish-greenish tones make imperfections stand out. Get yourself a pair of clamp lights (from lighting or furniture shops like IKEA) which you can attach to both side of your medicine cabinet or dressing table. Adjust it so that the light falls on and shows off every inch of your skin - no feature should be left in the shadow.
