Tip: When it comes to makeup, Ta believes in subtlety and recommends lightly contouring the cheeks, jawline, nose, and forehead using a darker shade of liquid foundation, not bronzer, according to beauty magazine Coveteur. (Above: Olivia Munn rocking a look done by Ta)

Tip: Ta is also a big believer in using a primer that caters to your skin type. He recommends applying it all over the face without missing any spots. (Above: Gigi Hadid in a make-up look Ta shared on his Instagram page)

While Dedivanovic is most famous for doing make-up on the Kardashians, especially Kim, he has also worked with Gabrielle Union, Kate Bosworth, Demi Lovato, Suki Waterhouse, and countless other stars. (Above: Kim and Dedivanovic)

Tip: Dedivanovic is not shy to use products for more than one thing. Don’t have an eyelid primer but want a punch of colours on the eyes? No problem, he recommends using concealer before eyeshadows to prevent eyeshadow from creasing or falling. (Above: Dedivanovic with actress Gabrielle Union)

Lisa Eldridge is an English-New Zealand make-up artist. She has worked with supermodel Cindy Crawford, Adriana Limaa and Alexa Chung. (Above: Eldridge doing a make-up look on herself)

Tip: Eldridge is a fan of using less to have the maximum impact. She recommends “spot concealing”. So instead of layering on heavy foundation because you have a few areas to conceal, applying a light coverage product while applying concealer on problem areas will help even out the skin tone without a cakey look.

Pat McGrath is a British make-up artist who has been called the most influential make-up artist in the world by Vogue magazine. (Above: McGrath working on actress Tiffany Haddish)

• Tip: While there are countless fancy tools one can buy to perfect your make-up look, McGrath recommends ditching the brushes and using your hands. The warmth from your hands helps everything from lipstick to foundation and eyeshadow to become more bendable. (Above: Priyanka Chopra rocking a look by McGrath)
