Indirect natural light is best for makeup application.Harsh
sunlight casts shadows and fluorescent light tends to make your skin
look sallow.If you are making up by indoor light,make sure your face
is evenly lit from both sides,ideally by incandescent bulbs of between
sixty and one hundred watts.

Careful,light-handed application is key.For a perfect finish, use
precision tools-sponges for blending foundation and flutty brushes for
dusting powder.Total matte is best for young skins while older skins
need more reflection to diminish tiny lines.Before you apply
foundation,you must prime your skin by cleansing,toning and
moisturising.This A.M. skin-prepping is essential for makeup
longevity.More than that,if you skip this step,you may find that your
skin is tacky which discourages your foundation from spreading
easily.Do wait for a few minutes to let the moisturise be absorbed.
Then even out your skin tone with the correct colour corrector.Now,
here are the application tips for a smooth finish.
1. With clean fingertips,take foundation either directly from the
bottle or from a blob in the palm of your hand.
2.’Dot’ foundation on the forehead,nose cheeks and chin.
3.Using a moistened sponge to insure that you won’t use too much and
to give the most natural results ,blend the foundation using light
outward and upward strokes.
