Makeup Powder Setting The Way

If you aren't completely into makeup, you may be wondering what makeup powder actually does. It's used for a few different things but two most common ways. You'll find it perfect for helping to set liquid and creme foundations. By adding the powder, it makes the skin appear less oily and gives off a matte appearance. Furthermore, it's used on shiny areas of the face to help reduce shine. If you're heading for a night on the town, this may just become your new best friend when it comes to touch-ups. You may not be great at it the first time you use it, but you'll nail the look in no time.

Perfecting Your Look Using Makeup Powder

Makeup powder comes in a translucent form or can come pigmented to match your skin. Many professionals use this to give you that extra perfect look by ensuring fine lines and pores are evenly blended. Firstly, you need to use primer on your face evenly. This will just give you a better canvas to work with and make the foundation spread easier later. Secondly, apply concealers if needed. They'll help to hide any blemishes, sores, bruises or pimples. Thirdly, apply a foundation that matches your skin tone all over. You may also want to blend all the way down to the neck so it appears evener. and then contour if needed. Once finished, you can use the translucent powder to finish things off. If you're a professional makeup artist, consider stocking a few variants in colour to meet all your client's needs.
