Foundation Tips

Use a foundation with a sunscreen with at least SPF 15 to prevent future skin damage.
Your foundation should match your face and neck, so don't try it on your hand or arm for color match.
You will need a different color foundation the seasons so don't use the same one all year long. Blending colors sometimes is the only way to get a perfect match.
Don't forget to apply foundation on your eyelids, lips and into your neck for a more natural look. This also is a good setting for eye shadow and lipstick.
For clear complexions, sometimes all you need is a tinted moisturizer for a natural look.
Liquid foundation is usually water based and is best for dry skin. Use a sponge or your fingers to blend from the nose, out.
Don't forget to shake up liquid foundation before use.
Apply loose translucent powder with a large cosmetics brush to "set" your foundation and keep it from running in hot and humid weather.
For dry skin, apply a light moisturizer before your foundation.
Powder foundation is ideal for oily skin and will help reduce shine.
Use a concealer for those nasty blemishes and pat lightly with pressed powder.
If your foundation is too heavy, add a couple drops of moisturizer to thin.
After applying make-up, go outside or near a window to check for blunders.
