Loose powder and foundation of different colors will make the entire makeup look very turbid. In addition, the texture, color, whether it contains pearlescent luster and other aspects should also be carefully studied.

Hands are the best choosers

When choosing loose powder, use a powder puff to rub it on the back of your hand. If the powder floats, it means that it does not fit the skin well and the setting effect is not very good. You can also take a little loose powder with the pads of your thumb and index finger, pinch it and feel it. If the powder slides gently down your fingertips without remaining in the wrinkles of your fingertips, it means that the powder has a fine and light texture and is of good quality.
