Applying the base – CHOICE FOUNDATION

Applied properly, foundation can make any complexion seem healthy and without law. The goal is to leave the skin looking as natural and unmade-up as possible. Before you begin, think hard about your complexion as it is not necessary to apply foundation over entire face.
When choosing a base, consider your skin type, amount of coverage you need and the type of finish you are after. And remember, the foundation is one of those products you use every day, so make the investment from the beginning will pay off.
The word foundation means exactly that: it is the foundation, the base of your makeup routine. If incorrect, the whole look may be off. Foundations are either oil or water based. Some skin experts will tell you if you have oily skin, you should use a water-based primer, and if you have dry skin, use an oil base.
It is important to choose a base color similar to your own skin. This is really easy, it is a matter oftrial and error should not exceed one hour of your time in a department store or distribution center. Try one of color on the inside of the wrist (not in your face that is a good way to transmit the bacteria) and walk a few minutes. Now look at the shadow again, and then try another one. Worth the time to find a foundation that will look good on you.
If you think you may be interested in the contour, or highlighting their features, you need to buy another one shade lighter foundation that matches your skin, and one that is three shades darker than your base color. Again, a good beautician or a seller in the cosmetics department can help you choose the colors you need.
