Editing How to Apply Pancake Makeup



Pancake makeup, also known as pressed powder foundation, is a type of makeup that comes in a solid form and can be applied with a sponge or brush. It is a popular choice for stage performers and those who want full coverage and long-lasting wear. Here are the steps to apply pancake makeup:

1. Start with clean, moisturized skin: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser and apply a lightweight moisturizer. Wait a few minutes for the moisturizer to absorb before applying the makeup.

2. Choose the right shade: Pick a shade that matches your skin tone. You can test the shade on your jawline to ensure a seamless blend.

3. Apply primer: A primer can help your makeup last longer and prevent it from caking. Apply a small amount of primer on your face and blend it evenly.

4. Apply the pancake makeup: Use a sponge or brush to apply the pancake makeup. Dab the sponge or brush into the makeup and tap off the excess. Start applying the makeup from the center of your face and blend it outwards. Use a stippling motion to ensure even coverage. If you need more coverage, you can apply another layer of pancake makeup.

5. Conceal any blemishes: If you have any blemishes or dark circles, use a concealer to hide them. Apply a small amount of concealer on the affected area and blend it well.

6. Set the makeup: Use a setting powder to lock in the pancake makeup. Use a large fluffy brush to apply the setting powder all over your face.

7. Finish with a setting spray: A setting spray can help your makeup last longer and prevent it from smudging. Hold the setting spray bottle about 6-8 inches away from your face and spray it evenly.

That's it! You have now successfully applied pancake makeup. Remember to remove your makeup before going to bed to keep your skin healthy.
