Which is better, liquid foundation or pressed powder?

Liquid foundation and pressed powder are different, and the makeup effects of the two are also different. The liquid foundation we use now has some sun protection and isolation effects, while pressed powder can cover blemishes and whiten the skin. Some people always like to compare liquid foundation and pressed powder, and use the one that works better. In fact, sometimes the best makeup effect can be achieved by using the two together. Let’s talk about it in detail below.

First, everyone is very clear about liquid foundation, liquid foundation, needless to say. The advantage of liquid foundation is that it adheres better, is easy to apply evenly and sticks closely to the skin. For those with bad skin and uneven skin tone, you must use liquid foundation to cover up the things on your face.

Second, pressed powder: There are two types of pressed powder we usually talk about, dual-purpose pressed powder and dry pressed powder. Dual-purpose powder can be used wet or dry. When using it wet, dip the powder puff in water and squeeze out 70% of the water, then dip it in powder and apply it. This way of applying powder is not much different from liquid foundation, but be sure to observe while applying the powder and don't apply it too thickly. When applying makeup, powder cannot be used alone, it must be used after liquid foundation, otherwise it will easily fall off and cause a spotty effect.

Third, the functions and effects of liquid foundation and pressed powder are different. So it depends on what kind of makeup effect you want to achieve before deciding which one is better or more suitable for you. Of course, it is best to use the two together, because this not only has a good makeup effect, but is also good for the skin. Today's liquid foundations all have more or less isolation and sun protection functions, so in fact it can protect our skin from damage by makeup, external pollution and ultraviolet rays to a certain extent, and at the same time it can also prevent pores from being clogged due to powder cosmetics. Compared with pressed powder, liquid foundation has much better natural whitening and blemish-covering effects. It can better combine our own skin tone with the color of pressed powder, so using liquid foundation will make the makeup look natural, and using liquid foundation can also make powder and makeup last longer. The skin tone is also more even and natural, without the effect of applying a layer of "white flour".
