My foundation routine 2015!
It may seem like a lot of products but I like to think of my routine in three 'layers' like a book, beginning, middle and end.
I don't use any primers because I feel that it isn't really necessary. First thing I put on is a foundation stick. I am in love with A'pieu smart speeder stick however I am also not too picky with what I use because it's my first layer and in the end you won't be able to notice it. A great thing about this stick is it's got an SPF30. Nothing beats having sunscreen in your foundation.
I'm actually almost finished this stick and will be buying another one shortly.
This is my middle layer. I will actually go one of two ways with my mid section.
This is one way and my most recent. Not only is the Kat Von D lock-it tattoo foundation great for coverage it also has a matte finish so if you were in a rush this is all you would need!
My next option are these two combined. Welcos Killing Me Zombie CC cream will go on first then I will use Etude House precious mineral cushion foundation on top to add for extra coverage. Fun fact you can get a container for the Etude House foundation but I opted out because it is fine the way it is.
Both of these apply seamlessly and are a very light foundation so it feels like there's nothing on your face.
This will be my final stage of foundation application. To make everything matte I put a powder on top. Again, not picky with what powder I use as long as it matches my skintone.
Under my eyes I will sometimes put this powder on to help eliminate wrinkles.
And ta-da! foundation complete!
As far as brushes go, I mostly use my hands to blend everything in except for the finishing powder I will use a brush. It's just a personal preference that I have. I did however just get my Too Cool For School Marshmallow puff which I will more than likely start using for my Kat Von D foundation to get a possibly better finish.
