Pre-makeup skin care
Some girls always apply too many layers of skin care products before makeup, especially the high oil content, which is not conducive to holding makeup.

Pre-makeup skin care should be streamlined
If you want your makeup to last longer and your makeup to be clearer, you must streamline your skincare before makeup!
The first thing you need to do is to pay attention to more water, so that the skin is more soft, which helps the subsequent makeup, and try to use less oily skin care products.

Choice of foundation
For newcomers to makeup, the choice of foundation products is really a headache, so many color numbers, so many textures, which one is more suitable for you? Here is a detailed explanation.

Choose the color number according to your skin tone
Judging skin tone
Generally speaking, skin tones are divided into 3 types, cool tones, warm tones, neutral tones.
1. Vascular color judgment method
-
Cool skin tone (Cool) skin tone people’s skin will show a little pink, red or blue tones, look at your wrist blood vessels are blue or purple, you are cool skin tone.
-
Warm-toned (Warm) skin has a slight yellow, gold or peach tint to it.
-
Neutral skin tones (Neutral) people do not look pink, red, or blue, nor yellow, gold, or peach, but the veins on their wrists have both blue and green veins.
If you still can’t tell your skin tone, think back to whether you look good in gold jewelry or silver jewelry.
2. Gold and silver jewelry contrast method
Gold and silver jewelry contrast method: if you fit gold, that is warm skin; if you fit silver, that is cold skin, both look good when worn, that is the natural tone.
Choose the right color
After judging your skin tone, next choose the right foundation shade for you. Cold skin choose a pink tone foundation, warm skin choose a yellow tone foundation.
Try the foundation on your face
Choose a foundation that is close in color to your skin tone, the contrast should not be too big. Here it is recommended that when choosing a color, it is best to do your homework first and then go to a cosmetic counter to try the color.

Choose the texture according to your skin type
When choosing a foundation, in addition to the color number, another factor to consider is the texture. Everyone’s skin type is different, so the reason why you use the foundation recommended by others is because your skin type is different from others.
Before foundation VS after foundation
The girl with oily skin should choose a foundation that controls oil and holds makeup well, in addition to try to avoid watery single products, which will only make the face look oily and not dry. For girls with dry skin, you can choose a foundation with a more hydrating texture, or even a foundation cream. Girls with combination skin can choose foundations with different effects in different areas to help hold makeup better. Of course, our skin type can be affected by external factors such as temperature, climate, and geographic location, and it is possible to change with age and physical condition.
