Applying the foundation to your face is the most important part of the make up.
You can apply the foundation with different tools:
- with your hands
- with a sponge or
- with a foundation brush (which is definitely my favorite way of applying).
- the foundation primer
- sheer foundation that matches your skin tone
- a canceler
- a highlighter
- and a loose or compact powder.
The applying steps :
- Apply a foundation primer before you apply any foundation or tinted moisturizer. The foundation primer will smooth out the skin surface,make applying foundation easier, and make your makeup last longer.
- Apply a sheer foundation that matches your skin tone. Tip: If a liquid foundation has SPF in it, it's NOT good for taking flash photography. Use the ones without SPF instead if you don't want to look too flashed out on your face.
- Apply canceler to any red or discolored spots. In the corners of your eyes, where it's red, around the nostrils, and under the eyes (to make you look more awake) are good places for this. Do this after applying foundation, so you don't use too much. First apply the concealer, then pat very lightly with your finger to blend. Only apply concealer to the area that you want to conceal. Afterward, use the wedge to blend the concealer in with the foundation. Stand back away from your mirror to see if you have effectively concealed the areas. Try to stand about the distance away from the mirror that you stand away from people when you talk to them.
- Apply a loose powder all over the face using a powder brush. Pat it into the powder; then, with a paper towel, tap the brush so the excess falls off the brush. Lightly brush across the whole face. Use a powder puff (small) to apply powder on the upper lid.
Here is a nice video that might help you... Honestly I prefer applying the foundation with the brush but you can also do it with the sponge as well..
That's it!
