"Now we're moving on to the foundation. The look that we're going for here is porcelain skin, very natural, and very matte. If you every see pictures of Angelina, she's never shiny, shimmery, or glittery. It's always very neutral, natural, and porcelain skin. It kind of looks like she's wearing very minimal foundation and she just has gorgeous skin. She never has that tanned look. It's always porcelain and pale. Lizzie has great skin, so I'm not going to use a lot of foundation in the first place. I'm just going to use my foundation a concealer. It's very light tinted matte foundation. I'm just going to use it where I need it. Around the eye area a little bit, around the nose, a little on the chin, the forehead. Just in spots. She doesn't need it all over her face. Then just make sure you blend really well. You have to make sure everything is blended in. If you need more in certain places or if you need to it all over your face, that's completely up to you. Whatever you feel most comfortable with. Then to get that continuous matte look, I'm going to use a powder on top of this. That's going to really be the foundation. Again, powders are all matte mostly. If you get a powder, make sure it's not iridescent or glowy. Use a nice big brush and just dust it on top. This a powder foundation. It’s MAC powder foundation. You can use a loose powder or pressed powder, depending on how much coverage you want. Just make sure again, it's not iridescent. Make sure it's completely matte. No glitter. Try not to do too much around the eye area. You don't want to use too much powder around the eye area because it tends to seep into the creases and wrinkles. Make sure you go down your neck a little bit, just to make sure everything's evened out. You see now she has that nice porcelain skin."
