How to apply full coverage foundation

Here is a simple and clear step-by-step guide to get the smooth coverage:

• Step 1: Prep your skin with moisturization

Before any makeup, a hydrated base is a must. Cleanse your face and moisturize it. Wait for about 10-15 minutes to let the cream work its magic on the skin. This is an important step to get a smooth blend.

• Step 2: Use a hydrating primer

The primer will help in filling the gaps and give a smoother finish to the base.

• Step 3: Dot the foundation on your face

Take a bit of foundation on the back of your hand and dot it all over the face and neck area. Cheeks, forehead, chin, nose, under the lips, and the jawline.

• Step 4: Choose the right tool

The key to a stunning foundation application is applying it correctly. Use makeup tools such as sponges, brushes, and beauty blenders correctly. Use a sponge for a natural finish and a brush for high coverage. Start with the sponge to tap the foundation into your skin, and then use a brush to smooth things over.

• Step 5: Build the coverage

Starting from the inwards and moving outwards towards the edges of the face to create a thin layer. Don't forget to cover your neck, ears, hairline, and jawline. Build up one where needed.

• Step 6: Set it with powder

Use a setting powder to lock the finish in place. Especially around the sweaty zones and T-zones. This will blur the pores and fine lines while adding a soft glow. If you have dry skin, then avoid the powder.

• Step 7: Use a setting spray for long-wear

This will prevent transfer and lock the foundation in its place.
