Technical File: Applying Foundation

Applying Foundation.

  • Cleanse and tone the skin before any foundation application.
  • Clip hair back.
  • Prime skin with satin or matte primer depending on skin type of model.
  • When matching foundation colours to skin test out colours on the model's jaw line.
  • Mix foundation base with primer to create a creamier consistency.
  • Note shades down for continuity so you can mix more if needed.
  • Don't double dip in palette! use the back of the hand for mixing colours together.
  • Apply foundation in centre of the face then slowly buff outward.
  • use fluffy brush to blend makeup out, hiding and fine lines and creating a flawless finish.
  • Conceal under eyes and any blemishes and buff out.
  • Powder face on the T zone but make sure it is not too cakey.
  • Powder eyelids to prevent ceasing.
  • Roll a powder puff against skin to press powder on. 
  • Brush off any loose powder with a fluffy brush.
