Seems like lately I've been having a lot of people ask me how my makeup stays looking fresh all day long. Its really easy and when I tell them what I do they don't believe me. Here is my face prep at a glance.
Step 1: Wash face
Step 2: Moisturize *a little will go a long way, you don't want your face greasy and try to apply moisturizer while face is still damp
Step 3: Apply a milk of magnesia to all the areas that are more prone to becoming oily. Some people say to only use the Phillips brand. I say use whatever you can afford. I bought a bottle from the dollar store just to see if it works and guess what,IT DOES!!
Step 4: Apply concealer to all of your trouble spots and under the eyes
Step 5: Put on whatever foundation you use liquid or powder and blend * I blend all the way to the hairline making sure that there is no "mask" around the edges of my face
Step 6: Use a pressed powder or finishing powder to buff the foundation and it also helps to set it
Step 7: Do your eyes/lips/cheeks as you see fit!!
There are many different ways to prep your face. This is just the way that works best for me, it keeps my face looking fresh all day with out having to constantly blot or touch up. I touch of my lipgloss all day because most of it smells so yummy that I keep applying it and licking my lips lol...Also try to find yourself a good "at home facial" product. This could be a mask or oil or something. My mom found this neat little face masks in the dollar store by a company called NuPore, a review is coming on them! They are wonderful! Whatever you do keep your face clean and well moisturized in between make up applications!
Remember its not just about what you look like when you have on make up but how your skin looks without it!!
