Begin by washing, toning, and moisturizing your face as usual. Doing this will help you maintain an even skin tone, which will make hiding your freckles easier.

2
Use a makeup sponge to evenly distribute a liquid foundation over your face. When spreading the foundation, be sure to blend the foundation evenly around your cheek bones and nose. If your makeup isn't even in these areas, it will be more noticeable since these areas on your face are most visible.

Put a pea-sized amount of concealer (a thicker consistency than foundation) on the tip of your finger. Dab the concealer on your freckles. Doing this will blend the concealer in with the foundation, which creates more coverage. Do this wherever there are freckles found on your face. In areas where there are a lot of freckles, you may have to repeat this step.

4
Apply pressed powder with a large makeup brush to your face. Doing so in a gentle manner will set the liquid makeup and concealer.

5
Finish your makeup routine as usual. Feel free to use bronzer, blush, eye makeup and any other products you wish to apply to your face.

Tips & Warnings
Always match your foundation and concealer shade to your natural skin tone. An easy way to choose a color is to blend makeup in the area between your wrist and the bottom of your thumb. This is how you'll know which color tone to use on your face. Use sunscreen every day or a moisturizer that has sunscreen in it. People with more freckles tend to be fair skinned and more susceptible to sunburn. If your skin is burned, you will not be able to hide your freckles.
Try to not over-do your makeup on days that you feel self-conscious about your freckles. This will make your face look unnatural.
