Problem: Article: Before you apply the concealer, you want to prepare your face for makeup. Moisturizer gives your face essential hydration, and it provides a good base for your makeup. Apply to a clean face, and pat in until it is all absorbed.  A good moisturizer should absorb into your skin easily without making your face feel dry or tight. If you have oily or combination skin, look for one that is water or gel-based. If you have dry skin, you may want to find one with an oil—such as mineral oil, jojoba oil, rosehip oil, or camellia oil—as one of its top ingredients. Use moisturizer even if you have oily skin. Otherwise, your skin may absorb the moisture in your makeup, causing it to have a cakey appearance. After the moisturizer is absorbed, squeeze out about a raisin sized amount of primer. Apply primer with your fingers or a makeup sponge. A good primer will smooth out the texture of your face without drying your face or causing it to look shiny.  Primers are available in both tinted and untinted varieties. Primers are also good at smoothing out large pores, pitted acne scars, and wrinkles. If desired, look for a primer that is marketed as targeting these issues. Using clean fingers or a brush, gently put your concealer on the hyperpigmented areas. Pat it gently to spread the concealer and to blend it with your natural complexion. Be extremely gently around the eye area. The skin around your eyes is much thinner than the rest of your face. Dot the concealer under your eyes. Starting with the inner corner, pat the concealer to cover the undereye area, or make soft tapping with your fingers, as though you were playing the piano. With clean fingers, a brush, or a makeup sponge, apply your foundation or BB cream in dots around your face. Blend it by patting it down and rolling your fingers or brush. Make sure your entire face is covered for an even complexion. Your concealer should not be noticeable under the foundation. Setting your makeup can ensure that your makeup lasts all day. You can use a powder or a spray to set the makeup, depending on your preference and skin type.  If you have oily or combo skin, a good matte powder can help your makeup remain in place all day by absorbing oil. Use a cushion or a powder brush to evenly blend it over your face.  If you have dry skin, a makeup setting spray can help your complexion remain even without drying out your skin.  Spray it on your skin after blending your makeup. You can reapply the spray throughout the day for a burst of hydration.
Summary: Moisturize your face. Prime your face. Apply concealer to troubled areas. Blend with foundation. Set if desired.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Unfortunately, the bustle of everyday life doesn't go away when you lose someone close to you. Help out by taking care of some of these daily needs. Ask him or her if you can help with groceries, flowers for the funeral, or anything else. Simple gestures like these will go a long way to comforting and supporting someone during this hard time. Bringing frozen meals over is a safe bet for someone who is grieving. This will show that you care and want to ease the pain of the grieving process by letting him or her focus energy on the family rather than figuring out what to make for dinner. If there are any responsibilities that have to do with the funeral, housing relatives, or providing transport for people, lend a hand with these tasks. These responsibilities can be a heavy burden when trying to deal with the weight of loss. You may not be able to do all of them for this person, such as talking to a funeral home director or providing a place to stay for visiting family, but any help you can manage will lighten the load. He or she may occasionally need a break from thinking about what's happened with a sibling. Take him or her to see a movie, pack a picnic, or do something else together that could be enjoyable. It doesn't need to be anything expensive or elaborate; the gesture and the company count the most. It's true that your friend or loved one may need concentrated support right after the death, but grief requires a lot of time and effort to process. If you want to provide comfort to the best of your abilities, understand that it may take months or even years to deal with the loss. Offer support at the beginning, but keep him or her in mind later as well. Many people's support will fall off after a while. If you truly want to help, be sensitive to the needs and the pain for as long as it takes.

SUMMARY: Offer to run errands. Prepare meals. Help with arrangements. Take his or her mind off things. Keep your availability open.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Whenever someone is talking to you, make eye contact with them and pay attention to what they’re telling you. It shows them that you’re listening to them and understand what they’re saying.  Focus your attention entirely on the speaker so they feel comfortable speaking to you. Lean in close or ask the person if you can move to a quieter area if you’re having trouble hearing. Body language can say just as much if not more a person’s words. While someone is talking to you, observe their body language to help inform how you should respond.  For example, if someone keeps looking around or shifting on their feet, they may be nervous or scared. You may want to ask them if they’re alright rather than responding to what they say. Also listen to how they say what they’re saying. If their voice is loud or aggressive, they may be getting upset or angry about the conversation. You may need to take a different approach when you respond to avoid further escalating the situation. If you get so excited or eager to respond before someone has finished speaking, they’ll notice and they may get upset. Wait until they’ve finished speaking and you’ve heard everything that they wanted to say before you start to plan your response. It’s very rude to interject with your own thoughts while someone is speaking. When you’re talking to someone, allow them to finish their thought before you respond. That way you have all of the facts and information that they wanted to convey so you can give a considered and informed response. Sometimes people will add an additional bit of information after they finished their thought. For example, they may say something like, “Oh wait, I forgot to say something.” Let them finish saying what they wanted to say. Before you give your response, take a brief moment to consider all of the information that was given to you. If you give a response that is ill-informed, it could show the person that you weren’t really listening to what they were saying. Taking a moment to think about your response also ensures that you give an intelligent response. If you couldn’t quite hear or understand what someone was saying, don’t try to respond with partial or an incorrect understanding. Ask them what they said or what they mean so you can give them a real response.  If you’re unsure of someone’s intention or if you want to allow them to explain what they really mean before you respond, ask an open-ended question like, “What do you mean by that?”  It never hurts to ask someone to repeat themselves if you couldn’t hear or didn’t fully understand what they said. After you’ve considered what was said to you and you’ve thought about what you want to say, speak clearly and confidently. Don’t use vague or contradictory language to try to sound smarter or clever. People appreciate sincerity, so give them a genuine response that shows them that you care and that you understand them.  Make sure they’re paying attention to you so you don’t have to repeat yourself. Recognize if someone else wants to speak and allow them room to talk as well. Allow the person to respond to what you’ve said as well. Don’t just walk away or end the conversation because you’ve had a chance to speak. Even if you’ve thought about what you wanted to say, there is always the possibility that somebody will disagree with what you have to say. That’s okay! Just be prepared for someone to dispute or try to disparage you for what you have to say.  Keep a cool head and don’t lose your temper if someone is trying to provoke you. Allow someone to state their beliefs and opinions. Don’t try to force them to accept your views.
Summary:
Listen closely when someone is speaking to you. Pay attention to nonverbal cues from the person speaking. Avoid planning your response while someone is talking. Wait until they’re finished talking before you talk. Think about your response so you can say it with confidence. Ask questions if you need clarification or more information. Speak directly and clearly when you respond. Be ready for someone to disagree with you.
