How to Apply Liquid Foundation: Tips and Instructions

Liquid foundation is essential in order to achieve a beautiful look. It can be included in your beauty routine or it can be an important part of your daily skin care. Applying your liquid foundation requires skill. It can prove to be tricky since a slight mistake could make your foundation conspicuous. A slight mistake in daubing, a bad rub of the brush or a single streak of visible foundation can make your face look unpleasant. These tips will perfect your makeup skills and they would make a lot of difference in applying your liquid foundation.

Select Your Foundation with Care

First you must determine your skin color. Choose the foundation that perfectly matches your skin color for a natural look. The foundation should complement you and it should not be so obvious particularly along your jawline. Before buying your foundation, try to see the color in broad daylight if possible. It can look quite a little different when you view it under store lights. Use a light foundation when you have a fair skin. Heavier ones are more suitable for skin with lots of blemishes. Apply a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand and rub it. This will determine if the foundation will suit your skin or not.

Select your Foundation Brush

A brush with a flat top would be able to make a good result. The brush must be bushy. It should have thick bristles. Make sure that the brush is made up of synthetic fibers. Real hair can soak all the liquid in your foundation and they are coarser. Synthetic fibers glide more smoothly on your face.

How To Apply Liquid Foundation: The Steps

  1. Wash your face with a good quality cleanser. You should remove the dirt, sebum, and oil, on your face for a smooth application of foundation.
  2. Dry your face thoroughly. Apply moisturizer, and leave it there for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Cover your eyebags, blemishes, dark spots, and other problem areas with a concealer.
  4. Put small dots on the face using your liquid foundation. Begin at the center of your nose. Spread the foundation outwards. Smooth away any clumps using a wet sponge. Make sure that you apply the foundation evenly in areas such as your mouth, around your eyebrows, and your hairline.
  5. Cover your entire face with the foundation. Spread it to your cheeks, above your lips, nose, and chin. Blend it thoroughly in order to match it with your skin tone.
  6. Apply the foundation on your neck so that you will have a uniform skin tone all throughout.
  7. When you covered your entire face with the foundation, put a small amount of powder on your brush and use it to buff your face. Buff your eyelids, jaws, eyes, and forehead. Get a tissue and blot it all over your face. Let your foundation set for about 2-3 minutes.
  8. Now your base is ready. When you have a good makeup base, the rest of your makeup will automatically follow and you can achieve great results. You can now apply your eyeshadows, eyeliner, blusher, highlighter, lipstick, and other makeup that you want.

When trying to figure out how to apply liquid foundation it can be quite tricky. But if you follow these steps, it’s quite simple. And you can get a beautiful and flawless face.
