Setting your foundation with powder…Minus the cakey mess!

If you are anything like me, you like to put your makeup on in the morning and not fuss with it again throughout the day. This low maintenance approach can sometimes be quite the challenge. Here is a little tip that will help set your foundation without making your skin look dry and cakey from too much powdering.

Tissues are the answer…

It really only takes a very small amount of powder to set your makeup. To make sure you don’t use too much take a single ply tissue, place it upon your face and powder over the tissue. Just the right amount of powder will permeate through the tissue leaving you with set, yet still glowing skin. *Hint* If you only have 2 ply tissue you can easily separate the layers by pulling them apart and using one of the two layers.

Silicone based foundations

I have decided that silicone based foundations are by far my favorite type. They glide on smooth and sit comfortably on the face. You can sheer them down for moderate coverage or leave them as they are and use them as concealers. They look completely natural and allow your skins natural glow to come through. Currently I am using Cinema Secrets silicone based cream foundations in my kit. Since I have started using CS foundation my work has been amplified. The models skin looks so pure and radiant, and they glide on so easily with such great coverage that I don\’t have to spend extra time trying to cover tricky spots…and the best thing about them? They stand up great to sweat, water and heat and save your clothes by being virtually smudge proof!
