Below, I will introduce you in detail the knowledge on the use of liquid foundation!

1. When to use liquid foundation

1. Foundation should be used before applying makeup.

2. Foundation is the basis of makeup. Powdered foundation is the most common. It looks soft and natural when applied on the face and is the best choice for daily makeup. Generally there are three types: liquid foundation, pressed powder and loose powder. When putting on makeup, people always remember to apply a layer of foundation. Therefore, to some extent, foundation is the basis of women's makeup. How to lay this foundation well depends on your skin color. When choosing any color of foundation, it should not deviate from your own skin tone, and it is best to try it on your facial skin.

2. How to use liquid foundation

When applying foundation with the fingertips, you should practice applying it repeatedly on the back of your hand first to become familiar with the characteristics of the foundation and how it feels on your skin. Once you have fully mastered the technique, you can try applying it on your face.

First, pour an appropriate amount of liquid foundation into the palm of your hand and apply it evenly to the forehead, nose tip, cheeks and chin. Apply from the center of the forehead to the sides, lightly tap around the eyes, 45 degrees downward on the cheeks, and from top to bottom on the chin, philtrum and nose. Remember to push it down in one direction and avoid applying it back and forth repeatedly.

If you apply too thick foundation on your eyes, which blink frequently, fine lines will easily appear. Therefore, when applying foundation under the eyes, look slightly upwards and apply from the inside of the eye to the outside with light pressure.

The foundation should be applied thinly and evenly, and gradually faded when applied to the neck, behind the ears, forehead, and roots of hair. The transition between the foundation and the skin should be natural and soft, otherwise it will give a fake face appearance.

In addition to using your fingertips, you might as well choose a makeup sponge to make the foundation look more transparent and natural. In addition, if it is applied too thickly, you can wipe off some of it with a wet sponge.

3. Choice of liquid foundation

Try it on your face: When choosing a foundation, always try it on your face, not on your wrists or arms. When trying it on your face, choose a foundation that is closest to your facial skin color.

Choose foundation according to skin tone: First, judge your skin tone according to the method above. Cool skin tones are suitable for cool-toned foundations, normal skin tones are suitable for normal-toned foundations, and warm skin tones are suitable for warm-toned foundations.

Compare under the correct light source: Liquid foundation should be compared under natural light (natural light outdoors) and try not to compare under the spotlight in a shopping mall.
