Prepping Your Skin
Before applying any foundation, it’s crucial to prep your skin properly. Follow these steps:
- Start by cleansing your face with a gentle cleanser to remove any dirt or excess oils.
- Apply a moisturizer suitable for your skin type. This step ensures your skin is hydrated and ready for foundation application.
- Let your moisturizer absorb into your skin for a few minutes before moving on to the next step.
- If desired, apply a primer to create a smooth canvas for your foundation.
Choosing the Right Shade
Choosing the correct shade of foundation is crucial for achieving a flawless complexion. Use these tips to find your perfect match:
- Determine your undertone – whether it’s warm, cool, or neutral. This will help guide your shade selection.
- Visit a cosmetics store and test a few shades on your jawline or inner wrist.
- Choose the shade that blends seamlessly into your skin, without leaving noticeable lines.
- If you’re unsure between two shades, go for the lighter one, as it’s easier to add depth with contouring and bronzing later.
Applying Clio’s Foundation
Now that you’ve prepped your skin and found the perfect shade, it’s time to apply Clio’s Foundation:
- Start with a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand.
- Using a foundation brush or damp beauty sponge, apply the foundation in small, even strokes starting from the center of your face and blending outwards.
- Focus on areas that require more coverage, such as redness or blemishes, and blend gently for a natural finish.
- Build up coverage gradually if needed, rather than applying a thick layer all at once.
Setting and Finishing
Setting and finishing your foundation ensures its longevity and helps achieve a seamless look. Follow these steps:
- Use a translucent powder to set your foundation, focusing on the T-zone and any areas prone to oiliness.
- Apply a setting spray or mist to lock in your foundation and give your skin a natural, hydrated glow.
- To complete the look, apply the rest of your makeup, such as concealer, blush, and eyeshadow.
