Before applying make up, your skin should be cleansed, toned and moisturised.

Concealer: Apply concealer to any areas that need covering such as, beneath the eyes, over blemishes, redness and pigmentation. If you apply make up over the eyelids the eye make up will last longer.

Foundation: It is best to choose a foundation that is as close to your skin type as possible. Using sponges may give a better result and leave your skin with an even coverage overall.

Face powder: Apply face powder all over your face with a powder brush. Avoid using excessive powder at once as your ski9n may become blotchy. Powder will stop your skin from looking shiny.
