Introduction to powder and foundation
- Compact powder: a cake of loose powder
- 2-way cake: liquid foundation plus loose powder
- Loose powder for touch up use or prefernce for a light makeup
There are many kinds of foundation in the market to choose from, the foundation you choose will be the exact colour of your skin when you apply and it 'disappear' in ypur skin means you got the right one. You may choose the one with a sun protecting factor in it so you will have 1 less product to apply on your skin.
For 2 way cake users,especially when you use it the 'wet' way to apply please always dry your sponge properly before ypu put it back into you powdercase....cos you find yourself applying a sponge of 'bacteries' if you don't do so.
What is coloured foundation???
You may find some coloured foundation such as green and purple in the market..the are actually great stuffs which you can use if you want.
GREEN foundation are for skins that is always red cause by sun burns or acne skin. The redness cause by acne is due to inflammation of the acnes and these skins are very sensitive so they need a cosmetic that is light and are able to conceal the redness so a GREEN foundation is recommended in this case. Ofcourse its best not to apply any makep if you have such skin.
PURPLE foundation is simple for ladies to look fair ( a even tone of fairness)not the 'yellowish-white' that alot of asians have.
Concealer
An undereye concealer should be 1 shade lighter thanyour skin tone as this will help to diminish 'PANDA EYES' due to light reflection.Try to apply concealer with ypur 4Th finger and lightly tapped into the skin.Use a brush if you apply the inner corner of yr eyes.
Always try to explore into different brands of cosmetics due to the difference of ingredient quality on the product.Yoy shoule feel great and confident when ypu are wearing makeup and one should not feel heavy as if you are wearing a mask.
