Foundation Application Tips:
• For a smooth, flawless finish - use a Foundation Sponge or a Foundation Brush.
• Pick a small amount of product and apply from the top of the forehead towards the chin, working downwards and outwards. This ensures that facial hair, if any, is not visible against the light.
• Build, build, build till you get the desired result – starting with smaller amounts is far more economical than having to take it off, if you have applied too much!
• Avoid using your fingers to apply foundation. The result is more product wastage by applying too much and then having to take it off. It also creates an unprofessional, often patchy or streaky finish.
• Oil Blotters are a great way to touch up foundation during the day, without necessarily reapplying. Oil Blotters also absorbs oil without removing make up.
• For oily skin, newer advanced formulae of oil-absorbing pressed powders work effectively for touch ups through the day!
