Cream Foundation

Step 1: Cleansing, Toning and Moisturizing
A clean and fresh skin ensures that you have a clean canvas to start with, and gives you an even base. Always follow the cleansing, toning, and moisturizing routine religiously. This is very important to maintain healthy and supple skin. Proper cleansing removes impurities and excess oils and toning balances your skin’s pH, tightening up the pores.

Step 2: Apply Face Primer
Apply a face primer, regardless of your skin type. The primer works as a base for your makeup. It bridges the gap between makeup and skin care. If you want your makeup to last longer, then do not skip this step. You can use your fingers or a brush, to apply the primer.

Step 3: Apply Cream Foundation Using Sponge

You can use a makeup sponge or a brush to apply the cream foundation. If you are using a sponge, load the product onto the sponge, and apply it from the center of the face, blending it outwards. The strokes and techniques are very important for ultimate smoothness. So, either dab or pat the foundation into the skin. Ensure that you blend it really well to even out your complexion and do not overdo it.

Step 4: Blending The Cream Foundation Using Brush
The best way to apply cream foundation is by using a brush. Start the application from the center of the face, blending it towards the cheekbones, and then on the forehead. The strokes can be in either a stippling motion or a circular motion. For cream foundation, a synthetic duo fibre brush works the best.

Step 5: Apply Loose Powder
Apply a layer of loose powder or translucent powder to finish the look. You can also use a setting spray to set and extend the life of your makeup.
