Foundation Routine with Color Correcting:

Step-by-Step

❤️1. Prep Your Skin

✨• Cleanse: Start with a clean face.

✨• Moisturize: Apply a moisturizer suited to your skin type to create a smooth base.

✨• Prime: Use a primer to help foundation adhere better & last longer. Choose one that matches your skin concerns (e.g., mattifying for oily skin, hydrating for dry skin).

🧡2. Color Correct

✨• Identify Concerns: Determine what you need to correct (redness, dark circles, dullness, etc.).

✨• Color Correctors:

✨• Green: Neutralizes redness (e.g., acne, rosacea).

✨• Peach/Orange: Neutralizes dark circles & hyperpigmentation (best for light to medium skin tones).

✨• Red/Orange: Neutralizes dark circles & hyperpigmentation (best for deep skin tones).

✨• Purple/Lavender: Brightens sallow or dull skin.

✨• Yellow: Neutralizes mild redness & brightens.

✨• Application: Apply a small amount of the corrector to the areas of concern and blend well using a makeup sponge or brush.

💛3. Apply Foundation

✨• Choose the Right Shade: Match the foundation to your neck or jawline for a seamless blend.

✨• Application Methods:

✨• Brush: For full coverage, use a foundation brush. Apply in downward strokes to prevent streaks.

✨• Sponge: For a natural finish, use a damp makeup sponge. Dab foundation onto the skin.

✨• Fingers: For a sheer finish, use your fingers to apply & blend foundation, particularly for liquid formulas.

✨• Blend: Start from the center of your face & blend outwards to avoid harsh lines.

💚4. Conceal

✨• Under Eyes: Apply concealer in a triangle shape under your eyes & blend.

✨• Blemishes: Dab concealer on any blemishes or imperfections and blend the edges.

✨• Highlighting: Use a lighter concealer to highlight the center of your forehead, bridge of the nose & chin.

🩵5. Set the Foundation

✨• Powder: Use a setting powder to lock in your foundation & concealer. Focus on areas prone to shine (T-zone).

✨• Loose Powder: For a matte finish & oil control.

✨• Pressed Powder: For a more natural finish & touch-ups.

💙6. Optional: Finishing Touches

✨• Setting Spray: Mist a setting spray over your face to set your makeup & reduce the powdery look.

✨• Blush/Bronzer/Highlighter: Apply blush to the cheeks, bronzer to the perimeter of your face & hollows of your cheeks & highlighter to the high points of your face for added dimension.

🎉 Tips for a Flawless Foundation

✨• Less is More: Start with a small amount of foundation and build up coverage as needed.

✨• Blend Well: Ensure all edges are blended, particularly around the jawline & hairline.

✨• Check Lighting: Apply makeup in natural light if possible to ensure even coverage.

✨• Tools: Keep brushes & sponges clean to avoid breakouts & ensure smooth application.
