Makeup: Tips for Applying Foundation and Concealer
Simple Things that Can Have a Big Impact on Your Skin
Almost since the beginning of recorded time, women have been painting their faces with various forms of cosmetics. Greek women would use a mixture of minerals to make their faces as light as possible, as any sign of a tan suggested a lower class.If you find your makeup makes you look unnatural, here are a few things to be aware of. The first and most important thing to do is to make sure your face is clean before putting anything on. With your face clean, you have the perfect surface with which to apply your makeup. If your face is dirty, however, the makeup will have a rougher surface to apply itself to. A clean face is also essential to healthy skin.
After cleaning your face, put on your foundation evenly; follow the directions of your foundation, since cream is different from liquid, which is different from powder. When applied correctly, no one will even notice you're wearing foundation. Ideally, your foundation is supposed to even out your skin tones so you look natural and healthy. No traces of the foundation should be visible. If others can see you're wearing foundation (or if you can literally feel it lying on your skin) then you have too much on. Also think about what type of foundation you have. To work the way it's supposed to, the foundation needs to match your own skin tone almost seamlessly. If you can't find the right color for you, ask a specialist in the cosmetics department at a store near you. If you think you have the right shade but just have too much on, take a tissue and soak up the excess from your skin. This will get rid of the extra foundation without wasting it.
