Almost every flawless face starts with applying an
even base. That means concealing where needed and then smoothing
everything out with foundation. However, for the girl who focuses on
wild eyes and bold lips instead of spending the time to blend and brush
her foundation to perfection, there are a few products that will make
foundation application bearable, quick and maybe even a little
enjoyable.
The Cream -
A cream foundation is ideal for the ultimate lazy girl. It can be very
forgiving when blended out and won’t risk some of the visible signs of
“rookie makeup girl” other formulas expose. Cream foundations that
provide full coverage and can be smoothed out with a sponge quickly
become your best friend in this case. Giorgio Armani Maestro Cream Compact
will work wonders on your skin and be forgiving if you don’t know how
to evenly apply the foundation. The trick is to work from the center of
the face with the product and smooth towards your hair line. And
remember, you can build up more product, so no need to get carried away
immediately. This compact is also a great size for storing in your purse
after you’ve ran out the door mid application.
The Powder - Powder
foundations are fabulous for brushing over your face quickly,
especially on barely-there makeup days – just a bit of mascara and some
gloss. Powders can deliver even coverage and tend to be great for oily
skin, however they can sometimes be messy, cakey and accentuate fine
lines – which does no one any favors. Avoid these cons with powder
products that leave a mattified, yet glowing look to your skin. If using
a loose powder, try Laura Mercier Mineral Powder. This powder even helps fight again aging! If a pressed powder compact for on-the-go needs is desired, Bobbi Brown Illuminating Finish Powder Compact Foundation
not only delivers light to medium coverage depending on if you apply
wet or dry, but it includes a sponge and offers a range of colors to
match your skin perfectly without a lot of work.
The Liquid - Applying
a liquid foundation usually means you’re dabbing and blending with a
brush or smoothing out product with your hands. If you like to keep your
hands clean and aren’t one to have a makeup brush for every purpose, then try a foundation pen. The LORAC Touch-Up to Go Concealer/Foundation Pen
is not only the perfect size for your purse (touch ups whenever you
need), but its dual use for concealing and covering imperfections with
the built in brush and light formula mean foundation application only
takes a few minutes. A pen applied liquid also gives you a natural
finish without having to blast fluorescent lights on every angle of your
face to make sure you have no visible foundation lines.
How do you apply your foundation? Do you wear it daily or only on occasions when you wear full makeup?
