Applying Makeup Foundation

Video Transcript

"So for her, I'm going to use a very lightweight foundation. She has gorgeous skin so she doesn't need much in the cover-up, but I want her skin to look glowy and dewy since we're doing gold. So it's going to be more of that like kind of J Lo bronze, sun-kissed look. So I'm using a foundation that has iridescence to it. And it's a really cool foundation, it's really, it's called Mac HyperReal, I really like it, especially for photographic and for going out. So it's going to look great, especially on her skin because it's so beautiful anyway. Just going to accentuate how nice her skin is. And you want to make sure you just blend it. I'm just putting a light coat, kind of all over her face. Onto the neck, you know, just to keep everything even and blended. And at home you can use a brush, you can use sponges, you can use your fingertips. I prefer a brush, sponges tend to soak up the product and you know, you don't have to get your hands dirty. And this is a great brush for concealing too and I'm actually going to use this, and I'm going to use it as a concealer. Open. And I'm going to go right underneath her eyes and just use this as a bit of a concealer to get rid of the redness, close, get rid of the blood vessels. Have a nice clean palette around the nose area. And then once you have all that on, you can just dust a light powder on top. As for powder, I like to use a nice pressed powder, something with a little bit of coverage, but not too much, with a nice big fluffy brush. And I just dust it all over the face. You don't want to put too much powder around the eye area, because again, powder kind of seeps into the lines of the face, so you want to just avoid the eye area too much, but put a nice even dusting all over the face. That will just set the foundation and give you a nice smooth look, control the oil. And down the neck a little bit, you want everything blended. Open. And her skin looks pretty much flawless just from a little foundation and a little powder."
