Turn your face into a mask! 5 mistakes in the use of powder and foundation that should not be made

It's no secret that foundation is the most important product in your make-up bag. After all, it can either ruin the whole picture of you or make your skin look radiant and fresh. Make-up artists say that a properly applied foundation is a guarantee of perfect make-up. After all, acne-free skin is an indicator of health.

OBOZREVATEL will reveal some of the secrets of how to apply foundation and powder. We are sure that these life hacks will help you look your best!

What mistakes make your complexion look uneven?

1. Dense foundation

In everyday life, too thick foundation is inappropriate. It immediately catches the eye, even if you apply the product in a thin layer. It is impossible to make natural make-up with such a product. Use it if you have an important event or photo shoot planned.

2. Layering

Make-up artists like to use the layering technique when the base is translucent and they need a denser tone. The main mistake is that girls do not let the layers dry and apply new ones.

3. Applying without a brush

It's not always a good idea to apply foundation with your fingers. If you don't allow enough time to spread it, it will not go on evenly and will blot. A sponge and a brush will help you create the perfect complexion.

4. Mixing foundation, foundation, concealer and care cream

If you have only five minutes to do your make-up, don't apply cream, foundation and foundation at once. Because the layers will not have time to absorb and may roll off. In this case, use only the foundation.

5. Cheap product

Cheap foundation will not only turn your face into a mask, but also give you acne. Make-up artists say that you should never save on cosmetics.

What mistakes do we make most often when using powder?

1. Powdering the face before make-up

If you apply powder before make-up, very soon your face will start to shine because the product will not allow the skin to breathe.

2. Powder your face immediately after make-up

In everyday make-up, a generous layer of powder applied immediately after make-up will emphasise all imperfections and fine lines. Allow all the ingredients to absorb into the skin and then lightly powder your face.

3 Mask oily areas with powder

Before applying powder to your face to hide shine, get rid of sebum. For this, you will need a mattifying cloth or paper handkerchief. Make sure you blot your face thoroughly and then lightly powder the desired areas.

4. Choosing the wrong colour of powder

Remember the rule: the shade of the powder should be half a shade lighter than the colour of your foundation or skin. This difference will allow you to create the most natural make-up.

5. Apply the powder with the sponge from the packaging

It is best to apply powder with natural bristle brushes. It is important that they are soft and not too thick and that you can easily shake off excess product for the most natural effect.
