How to cover up imperfections of the skin!

I bet you’ve been wondering sometimes how some girls have that perfect skin look. You know, the one that makes you think if they are made out of porcelain.

Some people have it natural, but some use makeup. You know that not all of us are blessed with glamorous looking skin and that often is a reason to feel not that great.

If you ask me, the best way to get good skin is to use skin care products and follow small daily procedures that can help you get that goo look. (This will be one of my articles in the near future).  But sometimes we can’t wait, sometimes we need a fast result for a party, a date… and we need to look good.

Well this article will  help you achieve that perfect skin in no time. It takes about 5-7 minutes. 

What you need:

Kabuki Brush

Foundation Primer. (Optional)

Foundation. (According to your skin color)

Powder

Step 1:

Apply some skin primer on your brush or you can even use your hands if you feel like it , to add the primer on your face. A primer is used to make the application of the foundation easier and also creates a barrier between the skin and the foundation. It moisturizes the skin and trust me, sometimes it is the key to your good look.

Step 2: 

Apply some Foundation to your Kabuki Brush. You can see how I do this in the picture bellow. Try to cover the whole brush with foundation so it’s not only concentrated in just part of it. To apply it on your face gently tap the brush over it. Just tapping will do. Don’t smudge or anything. Add foundation until the whole face is covered and the imperfections are hidden. If a spot is still not well done, just tap on it until it is. Any other moves while applying are unnecessary. Trust me, this technique is very useful and your face will not look like you just swapped something on it.

 

Step 3:

Take your powder and your Kabuki Brush (don’t clean it after using the foundation) and add some powder to the brush. Tap it over your face until you are satisfied with the look and… it’s done.

 

After this quick procedure you can add your other makeup: blush, eye makeup and such.
