FOUNDATION FUNDAMENTALS Using foundation can be tricky business — if not blended well, it can make you look clownish! The trick for uniform coverage lies in both choosing the right shade, as well as applying it wisely. Adhere to the following guidelines, if you want to get the best out of your product.

1. As a rule, always test your foundation, before you buy it. Choose a shade that’s closest to your skin colour and apply it on your jawline (not hand) in natural day light. It should blend effortlessly. Also, keep in mind your skin type. For oily skin, stick to an oil-free formula. If you have dry skin, opt for a product with hydrating benefits.
2. Prep your skin with a moisturiser for at least five minutes before you apply any foundation.
3. Finish with a finishing powder to set your foundation and keep it in place.
