Makeup Tip #1 - How to apply foundation

Hi Everyone :)
 
So I have noticed that a lot of people have problems with applying foundation. Some people apply to little, others apply to much or some people dont apply it evenly. So here is how to apply foundation perfectly:
 
1. Always start with a clean face and clean hands.
 
2 Apply a moisterizer that is perfect for your skin. Most foundations go on more smoothly and evenly when your skin his well-hydrated and moisterized. I personally use foundation primer because it creates a smooth surface for when you apply your foundation.
 
3. Apply concealer to your dark under eye circles,pimples or scars with your concealer(one thing to always remember is to pat the concealer,never rub the concealer into your skin)
 
4. Now to apply foundation. I always use a foundation brush to apply my foundation because it soaks up less foundation and its also easier to blend your foundation. If you perfer using a spunge or your hand that will work as well. Apply dots of foundation on your chin,cheeks,forehead and the tip of your nose.
 
5. Now using your foundation brush or whatever tool you perfer blend the dots together.
 
6.Make sure you spread the foundation right down to your neck(I personally think there is nothing worse that your face being a different colour to yout neck)
 
7. To get a Matte look after applying your foundation set it with a loose powder immediatly after application.
