Professional Foundation
Beautiful professional makeup has long been possible to do not only in a beauty salon, but also independently at home. It is enough to purchase special decorative cosmetics and learn how to properly apply such a make-up. In the bag of any makeup artist, in addition to lipstick, eye shadow and blush, there is a professional foundation for the face. The choice of this cosmetic product must be approached with special care, because makeup as a whole depends on the quality of this product.
Application
Makeup artists use a professional foundation to eliminate visible flaws and skin defects:
- mask enlarged pores;
- even out the tone and relief of the face;
- remove greasy shine;
- mask age spots and age-related changes;
- hide pimples, reddened areas of the dermis.
Please note, if it is necessary to mask deep wrinkles, scars or other serious defects, then you need to select a cosmetic product with a fairly dense consistency that can hide such obvious flaws.
Key Recommendations
First of all, you need to decide on some parameters of the foundation and the features of your dermis.
- Skin type.Please note that the condition of your skin may change under the influence of the environment (for example, in summer the dermis looks more oily, and in winter, on the contrary, it becomes more dry) and the internal state of your body. Watch also the reaction of the epidermis to a variety of care products and decorative products.
- The additional features that a professional foundation provides should match the needs of the dermis. For example:
- dry epidermis needs additional moisturizing and nourishing action;
- for oily skin, a matting effect and narrowing of pores are suitable;
- for a mature dermis, purchase cosmetics that include light-reflecting particles, and it has an anti-aging effect.
- Choose a tone according to your natural skin tone. It is very simple to do this: just apply a little foundation on your hand and wait until it dries. The color can be 1-2 tones lighter or darker than the natural complexion in order to emphasize a tan or set off a pale dermis in winter.
- The product should not only have the right texture, but also lie flat and not clog pores. For example, for oily dermis, choose a product that has a light and delicate texture, and for dry dermis, a denser consistency. In any case, before using foundation, test on a small area of the epidermis. If you do not feel discomfort or other unpleasant sensations, then you can safely apply it to your face.
