Application Tips
- To get the perfect smooth and finish look you need to equip yourself with appropriate application tools. Such as a cosmetic sponge or rounded foundation brush.
- Good skin care is a most essential part of makeup and we can’t ignore it if we want to get a perfect result because the secret lies in prep. So before applying foundation moisturize your skin with a good moisturizer.
- Use a moderate amount of foundation. Apply it sparingly and dab with the help of a sponge, spray soothing mist, or setting spray to look super hydrated and natural.
- If you find that your foundation oxidizes means turning into a darker shade so you may opt for the lighter shade.

Your Skin’s Undertones
Your makeup should enhance your natural beauty rather than make you appear to be wearing a lot of makeup. The most important part of selecting a foundation is not just your skin type but also your skin tone. Your skin’s undertone is the color that shows through your skin. It can be affected by the sun, hormones, medications, and aging. Many people have a “mixed” undertone, which means they have more than one undertone. The most common undertones are pink, yellow, and olive.
To determine your undertone, look at the veins in your wrist. If they appear green, you have a warm undertone. If they look blue or purple, you have a cool undertone. And if you can’t tell whether they’re green or blue, you have a neutral undertone.
Once you know your undertone, it’s easier to find the right shade of foundation. For example, if you have a cool undertone and want to even out your skin tone, you might choose a foundation with pink or purple hues. If you have a warm undertone and want to brighten your complexion, try a foundation with yellow or gold hues.
