How to Apply Base on Skin
Before using the foundation, tone up your skin with the makeup base.Then, apply the foundation with your finger tips or a sponge.
To create a
perfect base of your skin, you should first apply the
makeup base to your forehead, cheeks, nose, and
the tip of your chin. Use your middle and ring fingers up to the second joint
and spread the base evenly with a gentle massaging motion, reaching up to
around your eyes.
To
apply the makeup base to larger areas such as your cheeks and forehead, move
your fingers in broad strokes. This will prevent unevenness and help the
foundation spread more smoothly and last longer. For small areas such as your
eyes and nostrils, smooth the makeup into your skin in smaller, delicate strokes
using your fingers
Using the sponge
Foundation
Lightly pat the cheeks
Gently
hold the narrower side of an oval sponge and use the wider side to apply the foundation. When applying the foundation to
larger areas such as your cheeks, pat your skin lightly and rhythmically. Spread
the foundation over the contours of your face by stroking the skin smoothly
Apply the foundation smoothly
from the bridge of the nose
Apply the
foundation to your forehead by patting, moving on to the area between the
eyebrows and the bridge of your nose. For the bridge of your nose,work the
sponge in a downward motion since this area is angular, and use only a small
amount of foundation. A good guide is to have just enough foundation on the
sponge to reach your chin.
Foundation Fold the sponge for smaller
areas.
For the areas
under your eyes, over your nostrils, and around the mouth, fold the sponge in
two. If necessary, apply a second layer to areas of concern. Do not apply
foundation to your eyelids
Using your fingers
Foundation Lightly pat the
cheeks
Take some foundation on the back of one hand,
and then spread it lightly over your skin using the other hand’s middle and
ring fingers up to their second joint. Smooth it outward over your cheeks and
spread lightly over the contours of your face. The key is to not give a strong
pressure. Apply the foundation gently under your eyes, working from the center
of your forehead outward, toward your temples
Apply the foundation
smoothly from the bridge of the nose
Apply foundation
lightly to the bridge of your nose, around your nostrils and lips. For best
results, apply a very thin layer on the T-zone and other areas that move.Apply
another layer in a patting motion if there are any areas of concern
