Foundation makeup is the key to whether your makeup will look good or bad. The application of a foundation will help to smooth out your skin tone, conceal blemishes and give you a more healthy glow. Applying makeup without a foundation base can actually enhance unsightly skin problems, rather than conceal them. But before you head out to the store, here are some basic rules that should be followed when making your product selection.

Tap a small amount of powder into the top and swirl your brush into it (for best results we recommend using a Kabuki brush). Tap the bottom of the handle with the brush head facing upward on a hard surface (e.g. Bathroom counter). This settles the powder into the brush head. Firmly spread powder on clean, dry skin to evenly blend pigments.

Begin with clean hands and a clean face. Apply the moisturiser appropriate to your skin type. Let your skin moisturiser for a few minutes, particularly if your skin is oily. Applying foundation to freshly moisturised skin ensures you have a perfect base with which to work.

Smooth it out with a sponge. This step is very important. Be sure to blend, blend and blend. Most women make the mistake of forgetting to apply under the cheek which can give you a masked look. Unnatural looking streaks are often seen close to the ears, mouth, jaw line, temples and sides of the nose when blending is not properly done.

I would suggest these products to everyone as a part of their basic essential daily organic skin care ritual. There is no better way for a woman to take care of herself then with organic skin care. To buy Sheer Cover mineral foundation you have to purchase it online or over the telephone directly from the company.

When trying on a mineral foundation for the first time, make sure your skin is moist but not oily. If you use moisturizer, make sure it's completely soaked in before using the mineral powder. The brush you use - even on samples - is very important. Experts recommend a Taklon kabuki, which is a soft, rounded and very tightly packed brush.

Pulling and tugging on your skin can cause wrinkles to form, which could take 5-10 years to show up. Make sure that you rub very, very gently when you are working on your face and around your eye area in particular.

When applying the concealer, apply small amounts on the blemish and then using the pad of your middle finger, tap it in or press it in using a rolling motion. Never rub it in. Make sure the concealer has blended in properly and is not obvious. After this, dust fine, loose powder using a fluffy brush to set it in.

On the other hand, many brides want a minimal makeup approach and prefer to avoid using foundation altogether. Well, there are solutions for that too. Try using a tinted moisturizer or mix a little liquid foundation with a your favourite moisturizer. Again, use a loose powder to finish off your look.
