Once you have followed the initial steps of cleansing, toning and moisturizing, your skin is ready for the application of foundation. Choose your foundation carefully. Read through the post Choosing the right foundation. Which foundation you prefer to use is a matter of personal preference, but no matter which type, always pay special attention to blending.
*If there are any blemishes on your face or dark circles around your eyes, a concealer with a shade lighter than your skin color – should be patted on them and the color blended in well with the fingertips.
* Next, use the foundation of your choice, preferably with a piece of slightly wet sponge with outward strokes for an even and smooth application. Or you can apply dots of foundation over the face and neck.
* For a more natural effect, mix the foundation with some water if you want the make-up to be very light. Make sure you leave no demarcation line.
