How to Apply Powder for a Summer Makeup Look

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Michelle Renee here in Tampa, Florida with the Michelle Renee Makeup Artist Group and on behalf of Expert Village I'm here to demonstrate makeup for Summer. Our thirteenth step is powder. There are a couple of different powders out there in the market place. My personal favorite is loose powder. I like loose powder because it has a bigger grain, it's not press and it sits on the face well. Now loose powder doesn't travel well. So, what I recommend to my clients is at home once they have the face finished is to set the makeup with a loose powder using a brush. Now a brush is going to give you a lighter finish than an actual compact, but it will do right after you first put your makeup on. So we're gonna go ahead and put on a loose powder all over Leslie's face. It has a bigger grain, sets the makeup, makes it look perfect and professional. You want to dip your brush in the powder, remember shake off all your brushes and lightly place the powder throughout the face. Then you get down on the neck. Now for Summer, you're definitely going to have to reapply. Perfect and that's when I recommend a press powder. A press powder you're going to reapply with a sponge throughout the day when your feel like you're getting oily. Go ahead and do your T zone spots, your forehead, your nose, and your chin. And that's powder. "
