Q. How can I make my skin look fresher and more glowing?
Always start with a good night of sleep and a gentle cleansing routine that removes make up and dry skin, yet keeps in moisture. Apply moisturizer, then apply foundation in a light motion with a damp sponge or fingertips. Apply translucent powder around eyes and over difficult blemishes.
Q. Is all over foundation always necessary?
No, if you have fresh looking, fairly even skin all you may need are one or two touches of base (keep it the same tone or slightly lighter than your skin tone) applied under the eyes and anywhere else the skin may be a slightly different color.
Q. Why does my base always look too heavy?
It could be one of a few things. First, to get a base to look natural, you must have your skin in good condition (cleanse, moisturize and nourish). Are you sure you have chosen the color nearest to your natural skin tone? This is very important for a natural look. Blend it with a damp sponge, This may help, and make sure that you are using it with the right powder, preferably slightly lighter than the base.
Q. How do I choose my base?
Try a little on the inner forearm.
Q. I like to darken my skin. How can I do this in a natural way?
Blend your base in very well (preferably with a damp sponge) especially on the neck. If you use powder, use a light or transparent powder.
Q. I use a brownish shade of blush and like the neutral look, but sometimes feel I look a little dull.
Add a touch of a very light pure pink color to the cheekbones over the other blush. |
