Beauty: How I Apply My Concealer and Foundation

Here is a tutorial (in photos) of how I apply my concealer and foundation everyday.

1. I start with clean but already prepped (toned and moisturised) face:

2. Next is color correction. I use an orange/ peach hued color corrector from Inglot's Freedom System to counter the dark circles around my eyes and then a green one for the red patches on my cheeks and chin. I apply by using a concealer brush and use my fingers to blend the corrector in.

Green to negate redness

3. After color correction, that's when I apply my foundation. I use Inglot's YSM foundation in the shades 41 and 48. I use the lighter shade to highlight and the darker to contour.

This is how it's gonna look like before blending:

4. Using a Stippling brush, blend, blend, blend!

Blend, blend, blend and some more!

Here's how it looks after blending:

5. After I do my eyebrows (you can see the tutorial here), curl, and swipe mascara on my eyelashes, it's time to define my face even further. I use Ben Nye Luxury Powder in Banana to set the lighter foundation and to further highlight and I use a Mac Studio Careblend pressed powder in Medium Deep to set the darker foundation and to add contour.

6. After applying my blush, I proceed to set my entire face with loose powder. I use BYS Loose Powder in Medium.

That's it! Here is the complete make-up look right next to the no make-up one:

Easy peasy right?
