Skin type and foundation
The answer to the question of how to choose the right foundation is directly dependent on the type of your skin. If the skin is dry, choose a foundation, which contains moisturizing ingredients.
Oily skin all the time glitters, and excess sebum makes the use of any cosmetic a problem. Therefore, there are special means for oily skin. Tone cream for oily skin does not contain any oils, and its particles absorb excess sebum. This cream has a denser texture, it does not lie as thin as a cream for dry skin. If tonalnik qualitative, the fat skin is a little dried and unpleasant fat shine disappears.
Skin mixed type: oily skin on the nasolabial triangle and dry on the cheeks and forehead. In this case, you will need to try a little to learn how to properly use a foundation. It is best to use it to mask the lack of skin. The whole face is covered with cream - irrational. This will create an unnaturally lifeless and flat tone. To prevent this, buy 2 foundation creams: the first - just like your skin, and the second is darker. Second, cover your cheekbones and nose, and apply a layer of cream on it, which is the same color as your skin.
What is the foundation?
There are several types. The most dense in consistency is the tonal base, it can be used only for day and evening make-up. It looks good with artificial light.
It is desirable to use a liquid tone for those women who have good skin. The liquid tone can not hide the essential flaws of the skin, but it will even out its color.
Cream powder is great for owners of oily skin. It eliminates unwanted gloss.
How to apply tonalnik
To achieve the most natural shade, we must try to distribute the cream in the face as thinly as possible. Than a layer of cream is thinner, so much the better. You just need to correct the beauty, and not draw a new face. It does not matter what the cream is applied with - a brush, sponge, or fingers. It is important to shade the cream well, its layer should be as thin as possible. Apply from the chin to the forehead. First chin, then cheekbones and cheeks, forehead. Make sure that the boundaries between the cream and the skin are not noticeable. The color should merge, then the face will not look like a mask.
Choose a shade
We talked about how to choose the right foundation. The most important question remains - the choice of shade. To pick up the perfect color of the foundation, do not try it on your wrist. The fact is that the skin on the hand differs from the skin of the face. The ideal option is to buy 2-3 probes and already at home accurately apply the cream. Apply the cream should be a thin layer; then look at yourself - if you get a painful pallor or artificial swarthy, the cream does not fit. Also, lighting matters, so try to try the tonalnik in natural daylight.
If you bought a cream, but it turned out to be too light or dark, buy another one of the same brand, but another (more dark or light) shade. In this case, you can mix creams in different proportions and easily achieve the ideal complexion. When mixing different creams, getting a darker shade is more difficult than a lighter shade.
A light shade can be obtained if you mix the foundation with day cream.
