Choosing the
right foundation
can be a daunting
beauty aCtivity.
here are our tips to
relieving your stress
when searching
for the perfect
foundation fit.
It’s the canvas of every beauty look
and the go-to confidence booster
when our skin has decided to go
haywire: foundation. But, as with all
other beauty products, there are a million
and one different foundation options on
the market and it can get just a wee bit
confusing for a gal.
Besides finding a foundation that
matches your skin colour, you need to
find one that is best for your skin type.
Knowing your skin type and your desired
level of coverage will be the key to
finding your perfect match.
Foundation comes in a variety of
forms, with the four main types being
liquid, cream, stick and powder. The
right foundation can even out your skin
tone, give you a healthy complexion and
conceal flaws and pigmentation. With
each type comes a different finish and
level of coverage.
The correct shade of foundation
will mesh well with your skin and
complement your complexion. If there’s
an obvious un-blendable line between
your foundation and your natural colour,
you know you have chosen the wrong
shade (#floatingwhiteface, anyone?).
