Foundations

Foundation is very important as it is the base of the make up..

I usually skip to apply any foundation unless it's on a special occasion.. Anyway, will share about the stuff I use as a foundation on my face.

The stuffs that I use as foundation

From left: Kate powder foundation OC-C, MAC prep + primer, Kate stick concealer, Cyber colors loose powder, Bobbi Brown creamy concealer + sheer finish pressed powder kit, Kate face powder, MAC NW25 concealer, Skin Food Broccoli sun cream & my make up holder pouch =)

1. Usually i'll wash my face, apply toner, LOTS of moisturizer and then only the foundation. This is because i do not want the foundations and all the make up to clog up my pores, which at least my skin will have a layer of moisturizer to protect.

2. Will usually start with my sunscreen, lol.

This is Broccoli Sun Cream from Skin Food, with SPF 42 PA++ and waterproof. What i love about this sun screen is that my face does not react to this, which usually it will to other sunscreen, so it is all good =) It also has a slight broccoli smell which might turn off some who dislike broccoli, lol.

3. Next, I'll apply primer on my face.

This is a face primer from MAC which I loves =) This really helps my foundation to stay put =)) I usually skip the primer unless I'm attending an event.

4. Next, apply concealer!

I usually take my favorite studio finish concealer MAC NW25 (SPF 35) to apply on any area of my face that i wish to conceal. A superb concealer which is basically the same shade as my skin and conceal any blemish perfectly.

Then, I'll take my bobbi brown eye bag concealer to apply under my eye area. It comes with a creamy concealer (I use Sand) & a sheer finish pressed powder (I use pale yellow). The concealer and the powder is slightly lighter than my skin tone which is recommended and make my eyes look brighter.

Next, i'll use Kate stick foundation and apply on my T-Zone, on my upper cheek bone and on my chin. This concealer is lighter than my skin tone and serve as a highlight on my face.

5. Next, I'll apply my foundation

I'll use the foundation powder and apply it all over my face with my powder brush. I'm using Kate powder foundation, it usually comes with a sponge but i lose it, lol.

6. Loose powder + light shimmer powder

I sometimes use the matte loose powder (cyber colors) & sometimes I use Kate face powder (contains slight shimmer - my favorite loose powder). I'll dusk it over my face with a big fluffy brush & i usually apply some under my eye before putting eye shadows so if there is any fallout, i'll can simply dust it away.
