Prepping your skin before application

2018-07-19 -

Cleanse your skin with a non-drying, creamy face wash. Foundation loves smooth skin, so exfoliate if necessary but no more than once every four days for oily skin or once a week for sensitive skin. Apply a non-mattifying moisturiser, a hydrating primer or face oil – and remember sunscreen. Let it settle on your skin for about a minute. Apply your foundation from the middle of your face and blend it outwards past your jawline. If you require more coverage, repeat the previous step once your first application has settled. Apply a blush, bronzer or highlighter as usual, and finish off with a hydrating setting spray.
