Directions:
For liquid foundation, have a clean makeup sponge ready. Always choose a foundation that matches your skin color. Don't try to make your pale skin look tan by using a darker shade, or make rosy skin look less pink with a very yellow makeup. If the color does not match your skin, it will look fake. Match the shade to your cheek near the jawline; a lightly blended swipe that is the right color will seem to disappear on your skin. If you can see a line that is dark, very light, pink, orange, or any color other than the color of your skin, it is the wrong shade. Wearing the wrong shade of foundation is almost always the reason for an obvious makeup line.

Once you have the right shade for you. Use a makeup sponge to draw lines of the foundation on your cheeks, chin, forehead and nose. Start with a small amount - you can always add more if you need to.

Once you have the lines on your face, use your sponge in downward strokes to blend the makeup. Your goal is thin, even coverage. Blend it all the way down your cheeks and under your jawline and chin, out to your hairline, and around your nose. Use short, light strokes with the sponge taking care not to blend so much that you are rubbing the makeup off.

Now that you have an even layer of foundation all over your face, check for any spots that need extra attention. You can either apply a bit more foundation there, or use a concealer. If you use more foundation, put a small dot on the area you are adding to and press it lightly into your skin with the sponge until it is blended in.


Note: Mineral Secrets' bases have sun protection qualities due to the Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide ingredients. However, you still need to use a sunblock with sun exposure! Our bases will protect your skin better than if you had nothing on, but you still need to protect your skin adequately with SPF products.
