How do I Apply Foundation

Assessing the skin tone is the first step in selecting your foundation or to determine the type of foundation that will best suit you.

The selection of the foundation shade for your skin is a very critical part. Most people have yellow-based tone and need to wear yellow based foundation. All Sacha foundations are yellow based and vary the shade from lightest to darkest. You can identify your shade of foundation at any store. Follow the instruction as per given in the site and identify the shade of foundation that best suit your skin.

For even application you can use cosmetic sponge.

Make your face ready to apply foundation with the use of a suitable cleanser and toner. Then apply Sacha’s Daily Moisturizer, which is a very good under make up base. It improves the right application of foundation and improves its longevity. It is a requirement for all women with dry skin.

Better use a cosmetic sponge for applying your foundation as it provides more control and smoother application.
Liquid foundation should be blended in a small quantity at a time until the whole of your face is covered.
Cream foundation requires a long sweeping motion of application with your cosmetic sponge. It should be blended evenly to get a smooth flawless finish.

A powder foundation should be applied as you do your normal compact powder.

Proper blending is very important. Blend the foundation under the jaw line, into the hairline, on the ear lobes, on the corners of the nose, corners of the mouth, over and under the eyes. After that apply powder lightly with a translucent powder to set your foundation.

Tips:
The foundation should be tested on your jaw line and should not be done on your hand or inside your wrist. Examine it under different light setting. It should match with your natural color of neck.

Wet your cosmetic sponge to create a sheer finish.
