Liquid foundation, powder and blush - drawing subtleties

It is unlikely on light there will be such woman who would not like that her make-up always looked ideally and faultlessly. Nevertheless, the make-up which is quite often made by us does not meet our expectations at all. And the cause is most often there are incorrectly applied liquid foundation, powder and blush. Actually, there is nothing difficult in their drawing, the main thing – to know all necessary subtleties.

We apply liquid foundation

Practically any make-up not only competently picked up, but also correctly applied liquid foundation is the key to success. How it is necessary to apply it subsequently not to regret for in vain spent means?

It is necessary to put any liquid foundation on a face the thinnest layers, gradually moving ahead from a forehead to a chin, by means of a sponge or fingers. You should not try to rub diligently it in skin – best of all to put it with the delicate patting movements (for skin with enlarged pores it especially relevant). If liquid foundation is applied by means of a sponge, then the sponge before use needs to be moistened slightly.

Besides, it is extremely important to control also amount of the applied liquid foundation: if suddenly on a face hyphens began to be shown or wrinkles – means, tone means is taken much, and will not prevent to get rid of an excess layer by means of a sponge.


It is not recommended to apply foundation under eyes at all – best of all to apply the clarifying cream on these sites of skin. And that skin did not begin to shine foully, you should not mix liquid foundation with ordinary cream.

How to be with powder?

It is no secret that the tone of powder is selected depending on a natural shade of skin. At the same time ideally it has to be lighter than the used foundation. It is possible to use, of course, and the universal assistant – transparent powder, here only to disguise with its help defects of skin unambiguously it will not turn out.

For the narrow face of the most suitable there will be a powder of light shades. If it is necessary to correct a wide face, then on each side it is recommended to apply powder more darkly.

Any powder with easy movements from top to down, small portions and by all means a brush, a sponge or a sponge is applied (them it will be possible to remove also surplus subsequently). By the way, if slightly to humidify a sponge, it is possible to gain from powder use practically the same effect, as well as from foundation use. And here powder balls is allowed to be applied with only rather thick brush.


Friable powder without special work it is possible to powder not only a face, but also eyes (and eyelashes including) or lips. Such approach will allow a make-up to hold on much longer and to make lips more volume, and eyelashes – are much longer.

Especially for owners of the inflamed and very sensitive skin many producers of cosmetics produce antiseptic powder – put such means with a wadded tampon. And to the maximum to disguise defects of skin or to create a magnificent evening make-up, will not prevent to get the brilliant powder including parts of nacre or pearls.

And one more important nuance – if powder is used in a tandem with foundation, then after putting foundation until drawing on the person of powder there have to pass not less than fifteen minutes.

We do not forget about blush

It is necessary to put blush on a face by means of a special flat brush, surely short, but not long dabs. And it is the best of all to apply gel, liquid or too fat blush with finger-tips. As for tone of blush, it is selected, being guided not only by a shade of skin, but also the general color scale of future make-up.


Owners of the wide person are recommended to apply blush vertically if, on the contrary, it is necessary to expand slightly a shape of a face, then blush puts horizontally. At triangular shape faces will not be superfluous to apply blush also on the acting part of cheekbones and also on a chin. And to achieve effect of lifting, favourite blush at first applies on cheeks, and then accurately shades them in the direction up.

By the way, by means of blush it is possible to soften and too sharp or angular features – for this purpose apply with their circular motions on the center of cheeks.

As you can see, all councils are simple and executable so to look always magnificent, will not prevent to note them to himself!
