How to: Apply Foundation


The right foundation will even out your skin tone and give you the appearance of flawless skin. But you have to do it right, otherwise you risk looking like a clown! Follow these steps for a flawless complexion.

*Find your perfect color

*Test foundation on your jawline and check it in the daylight. The color is correct if it disappears without blending.

*For the perfect canvas, make sure your skin is clean and moisturized. Wait five minutes before you apply foundation to    let moisturizer sink in.

*If you want just a little coverage, use your fingers. For more coverage, use a sponge. The Beauty-blender Cosmetic  Sponge is a  favorite among pros: It leaves just the right amount on the skin.

*Luminous Powder: New translucent powders reflect the light help skin glow and take down shine. Dust one  in a W  motion. Starting at your hairline on one side, swoop down to your cheekbone, up to the bridge of your nose, back down  the other cheek, then up again to the opposite hairline.

How to Fill-in Eyebrows

Eyebrows are one of the most important features of your face; they are incredibly expressive, draw attention to your eyes, and add dimension to your face. If you suffer from brows that are too light or very sparse, you can easily fix your situation by filling them in! Using some basic makeup techniques, you'll be on your way to ideal eyebrows in no time. 


Create the arch in your brow. Use your pencil or brush to find the best place for your natural arch in your brow. (Top and bottom)

Options for eyebrow fillers include a brow pencil, brow powder, or a brow cream/gel. Powders create the most natural look while pencils offer a more defined look. Match the color of your filler to your natural hair color. 

Use a spoolie brush or a clear brow gel to brush through your eyebrows. This will pick up excess color and distribute it evenly as you put your hairs in line

This is an optional step. If you want to clean your brows, you can highlight under the brow. It creates a clean and more arched look.
