1 First, wash your hands so you don't get dirt on your face. If you apply makeup with dirty hands, you may get pimples or other skin imperfections. You can also use makeup sponges and brushes, again making sure they are clean. But it's better to use your own hands as sponges and brushes to avoid bacteria.

2 Clean your pores with toner and apply moisturizer all over your face. This will help protect your skin and make your makeup look more natural.

3 Apply concealer under the eye circles and on problem areas on the face. Avoid contact with the delicate areas around the eyes to avoid premature aging. Start from the outside of the eye, working your way up to the nose. Use a peach or yellowish concealer to hide dark circles under your eyes. To hide redness or pimples, use a green concealer.

4 Apply makeup base with a sponge. Try to apply as little as possible. Your task is to even out the tone of the face, not apply an impenetrable mask. Do not apply foundation to the neck, just touch up the jawline so that the tone line is not visible.

5 Immediately after applying foundation, lightly powder your face to give it a matte finish and spread the tone over the entire surface. Don't use powder if you have dry skin. The powder dries the moisturizer.

6 Apply your desired makeup.

7 Examine your face carefully to make sure the base hasn't stained. You can also ask a household member to check your face for irregularities.

8 You are ready! Follow these guidelines and you won't have to tweak your makeup throughout the day.

Tips

Make sure you buy a foundation that is appropriate for your skin type. If you have dry skin, use a liquid foundation and powder; if your skin is oily, use a mineral foundation.
Always choose a tone that suits your skin. All women sometimes make mistakes by getting too light or too dark. Use a store tester. Don't test the color on your wrist, apply on the jawline.
If you use makeup brushes, make sure you change them twice a year. grease and dirt accumulate on them. You don't want to put this on your face every day, do you? Almost all brushes can be cleaned with mild liquid soap, rinse well and hang from top to bottom to dry. Wash your brushes at least once a week and sponges every day.
If you are using brushes to apply liquid foundation, quickly sweep in circular motions all over your face. Blend with your finger. It looks very natural and glamorous!
Don't go overboard with the foundation. Your goal is to look as natural as possible.
ALWAYS apply moisturizer before makeup.
Try not to touch your face during the day. You can wipe off the foundation or bring grease and dirt onto your skin, which will cause acne.
Apply concealer a little at a time.
If you have a lot of imperfections on your skin, use a powder base first, then a liquid base and fix the result with a transparent powder. Using multiple foundations at the same time will provide your skin with maximum protection and full application, and will also look more natural.
Never apply foundation on your neck to blend in with your face tone. If you can see the difference between the color of the neck and the face, your base is too dark.
Keep in mind that your skin type can change over the years. The skin can become drier in winter and oily in summer. Use different types of foundation.
Use an SPF foundation to protect your skin if you forget to apply sunscreen.
Be aware that your skin may darken during the hotter months. Therefore, in the summer, use a foundation one shade darker.
If you have sensitive or problem skin, don't skimp on the basis. The cheaper the foundation, the more it can damage your skin.

Warnings

You may be allergic to some brand base, so test the new base over the weekend. Apply a small amount of foundation to part of your face and watch the reaction throughout the day.
