All Day Makeup, long lasting makeup tips

Long Lasting Foundation Tips

• Apply foundation 10 min. after moisturizer. If you don't allow the moisturizer to absorb into the skin, your foundation will wear off in a matter of hours

• ALWAYS use a powder to set the foundation. Take your powder compact with you to do touch ups throughout the day.

• For lasting foundation, blot your makeup with a paper towel throughout the day to remove excess oil. You can also use makeup blotting sheets.

• If you're not sure what shade foundation you are, go with one shade lighter than you think. Use a powder to darken and contour the face. Powder will wear off, foundation shouldn't. By using a lighter foundation and a darker powder, you'll avoid the blotchy look when the makeup starts to wear off.
