Every makeup enthusiast desires a face beat that will last as long as possible.
Nothing worse than losing half of your face beat during the course of the day when you want to take your look from day to night.
Today we have some tips that will ensure that your makeup lasts as long as possible:
1.Have A Clean Smooth Base
Every makeup artist will tell you that great makeup begins with great skin.
Just like a painter desires a clean canvas, your face needs to be clean and exfoliated for a smoother and better application.
Use a non-abrasive cleanser to remove dirt, gunk and unclog your pores.
Exfoliating your skin will also ensure that you have a smooth canvas that will make the application easier and will ensure the foundation lasts longer.
2.Use Primer
Primer creates a smooth base for your foundation and helps makeup adhere to the skin allowing for it to last longer
3. Use long-wear foundation
There are some foundations in the market created for a longer wear time with some lasting up to 24 hours.
Locally available and affordable foundations of this kind include Maybelline Superstay 24 Hour Foundation and the Revlon ColorStay Foundation.
4.Powder after primer, before foundation
A translucent setting powder applied after primer soaks up the excess oil and creates a smooth canvas for foundation application. In addition, it provides extra coverage which is desirable if your foundation is light-medium coverage.
5.Powder after foundation
Powder after foundation sets your makeup and adds an extra shield against oil to ensure that your makeup last longer.
6.Setting spray
Use a setting spray to lock down your makeup and ensure that it lasts all-day
