Step-by-step

Applying the base
  • Types of foundation
  1. Liquid base
  2. Stick base
  3. Tinted moisturizer( usually used for men or older skin)
  4. Pouder type (for normal or young skin)
  5. Cream(grease paste)
  6. Oil-free base(for oily skin)
  • Concealer
  1. Yellow- bust the complexion
  2. Red- for darker undetones
  3. Green- will neutralise red undertones
It is important to apply grease on grease products and powder on pwder. The powder products will take away the shine and will fix the make-up.

  • Step-by-step
   After cleaning the face, we have to choose the appropriate colour of the model's skin, so with a  stick we pick up the suitable color from the palette to create the colour we need. Then we mix it on the back of the hand or on the artit's palette. We can add the primer in the mix or we can apply the primer first(I applyed the Matte Primer first). We have to find a small part of the face for trying the colour in order to make sure that the  colour is the one we need, then we apply the base on the face, making circular motions with the brush. We continue with the same movements until the colour is well absorbed by the skin. With a bogger brush, we buff everything. We pay attention not to go too much into the hair skin, and give a partuicular attention around the eyes. We apply the concealer on the area in which we need to correct or to cover imperfections. Finally, we apply a translucent powder to take away the shine and to fix the make-up.

There must be NO GAP between the natural skin colour and the skin with make-up.

  • The left side is without a skin base while the left side is the part where I applyed the skin base.
Even I have been praised for the way in which I applied the foundation, there were some small mistakes. Of course I have to practice and improve in some things. The observations were made ​​around the eyes and, I have to expand base more on the neck surface.
