Skin Type<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Finding out your skin type is vital into finding the perfect formula of foundation for your skin. Different kinds of skin types but the most common are normal, dry, oily, and combination. How do you distinguish which one is yours? Take a few oil blotting paper and place them one side of your forehead, nose, cheek, jaw, and chin. Check which blotting paper has oil in it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Normal Skin:\u00a0All sheets have a minimal amount of oil<\/p>\n Dry Skin:\u00a0all sheets are dry<\/p>\n Oily Skin:\u00a0All sheets have more amount of oil<\/p>\n Combination Skin:\u00a0Forehead, Cheeks, Nose, and Chin have oil<\/p>\n Skin Tone<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n We are either Cool, Neutral or Warm toned. Check the veins on your wrists. The natural colour of our veins are blue so if your veins appear blue then you\u2019re in the cool-toned spectrum due to the lack of melanin in the skin (skin is translucent). If your vein appears green, then you\u2019re in the warm-toned spectrum. If you see your veins are purple then you\u2019re probably neutral.<\/p>\n Skin Colour<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n Now that you\u2019ve established your skin tone, time to find the right shade for you. Finding the correct shade is usually very daunting. I always suggest going to a physical store when buying foundation instead of buying online. Most formulas oxidise so it\u2019s best to try it on yourself before purchasing it. I suggest that when you go shopping, always start with a couple of foundations you\u2019re eyeing on and carry on throughout your day shopping. Check it after a couple of hours and then come back to the shop to purchase or try another one.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Foundation Shade<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n In choosing your foundation shade, apply your foundation to your jawline and part of your neck. Decide on which part of your body do you want to follow (neck and chest or face) because most of us have either lighter or darker faces than other parts of our body.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Coverage\/Finish<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n In choosing the thickness, texture and formula of your foundation, you have to choose it according to your skin type.<\/p>\n Normal Skin:\u00a0Any Liquid or Cream-based<\/p>\n Dry Skin:\u00a0BB Creams, Liquid and Cream-based with extra moisture<\/p>\n Oily Skin:\u00a0Water-based Cake, Full Matte Coverage, Compact Powder Foundation.<\/p>\n Combination:\u00a0Any formula\u00a0as long as it’s properly primed and moisturised in the correct areas.<\/p>\n Congratulations!
