Forget what you think you know about foundation—it’s come a long way since the cakey, masklike stuff your mom used to wear. “Modern ones feel as lightweight as moisturizer and It makes anyone’s skin look flawless,” Here’s how to get in on the miracle.
Step 1: Find your perfect color
Test foundation on your jawline and check it in the daylight. The color is correct if it disappears without blending. If you can’t afford to splurge on foundation, get a beauty adviser at a department store to help you pick the perfect color.
Step 2: Prep your skin
For the perfect canvas, make sure your skin is clean and moisturized. “Wait five minute before you apply foundation to let moisturizer sink in. Primer is a skippable step unless your makeup has to last through a late night. Or use it alone on lazy days as a quick complexion smoother. Primer can also miinimize pores and mattify your face.
Step 3: Swipe it on the right way
If you want just a little coverage, use your fingers, pros advise. For more coverage, use a sponge. For everyday, dab foundation only where you need it to hide pimples, camouflage redness or even out your T-zone. To get an airbrushed finish, blend makeup all over, including the eye area, starting in the middle and working your way out ( bh Cosmetics stippling brush will help u achieve this), Just don’t pile on extra for big events or photos. Digital cameras won’t wash you out like old school ones used to, so less foundation is appropriate.
Step 4: Do concealer after foundation
If you apply it before, you’ll use more than you need and that base of foundation keeps concealer crease-free. Look for a lightweight liquid in a color one shade lighter than your skin. “Going too light looks fake. Use a small, pointy brush to cover the darkest part of under-eye circles—usually right below the inner and outer corners. If other little skin flaws aren’t quite covered by your foundation, dab on a tiny bit of concealer there too.
Step 5: Finish with luminous powder
New translucent powders that reflect the light help skin glow and take down shine. Dust one on in a W motion. Starting at your hairline on one side, swoop down to your cheekbone, up to the bridge of your nose, back down the other cheek, then up again to the opposite hairline.
It is also very important, that your consider your skin type before getting a foundation.For example, if your skin is oily, you don't want to use the same type of foundation someone with dry skin prefers. If you have a sensitive skin, you most likely won't want a sheer coverage foundation. And if you have normal skin with an even skin tone, you may not want the level of coverage some foundations provide.
Foundation is an absolute must for anyone seeking an even, flawless complexion that radiates beauty. Nothing is worse than looking like you have a mask on your face.
