Prepping the skin:
Thorough preparation of the skin will affect the quality and longevity of the application. Begin the application with clean and hydrated skin.
3 steps to prepping the skin for makeup:
1) thoroughly clean the skin and eyes of any oil make up or oil’s
2) light moisturizer for a smooth application. Do you not use too much moisturizer or it may cause make up to smudge, move or appear oily
3) finish the skin preparation with moisture spray
Foundation Primer:
Creates a barrier between the skin and the foundation. It helps the foundation to go on evenly and smoothly. It minimizes fine lines, diminishes large pores, reduces the appearance of dry skin, reduces shine and helps make up last longer.
Foundation Textures and Coverage:
1) tinted moisturizer: can create your own by mixing foundation with a moisturizer or purchase one
2) liquid foundation: most popular with the most variety
3) cream foundation: full coverage, can be used to contour and highlight, great for photos
4) dual finish foundation: good for layering, can be used to contour and highlight
5) mineral foundation: good for sensitive skin, not for photography
6) HD Foundation: diffuses light and evens skin, hydrating, plumps skin
7) airbrushing: sprays powder particles, can charge more
3 considerations when choosing a foundation:
1) what is the application for?
2) what is the coverage needed?
3) what is the texture of the skin? (Acne, dry, oily, mature, etc.)
