The use of foundation before going out for office or any event has become mandatory. So, it is better to learn the right than to apply it in wrong way and ruin your look.

Moisturizer

If you have a dry skin, never apply foundation with a moisturizer. Even if you have oily skin, you can use moisturizer after cleaning skin. If the skin is smooth, foundation will blend easily. Always choose a moisturizer with SPF that also helps protect the skin.

Always use a Primer

Primer helps foundation to blend easily and last longer. Also, people have open pores issue, so primer helps to close these pores. For girls with dry skin, this avoids foundation to be caked and for girls with oily skin, primer helps hide the pores.

Right Tools

Always try to use damp beauty blender for blending foundation. Also, always use clean blender, so clean it and make it damp before blending with it. Especially if you have to use stick foundation, then damp beauty blender is a must.

For stick foundation, use fingers as the heat of fingers help to blend and the foundation and close open pores.

For liquid foundation, use a buffer brush that helps create a smooth finish.

One Shade Light
