How to Apply Mineral Foundation

From freem


Mineral foundation is a popular makeup product because it provides natural-looking coverage and is gentle on the skin. Here are some steps to follow when applying mineral foundation:

1. Start with clean skin: Begin by washing your face and moisturizing your skin. Allow the moisturizer to fully absorb before applying your foundation.

2. Choose the right tools: Mineral foundation can be applied with a brush, sponge, or your fingers. A kabuki brush or flat-top brush is ideal for applying mineral foundation.

3. Tap off excess: Dip the brush into the powder and tap off any excess. You don't want too much powder on your brush, as it can make your application look cakey.

4. Apply the foundation: Use circular motions to apply the foundation to your face. Start in the center of your face and work your way outward, blending as you go. Apply more product as needed to achieve the desired level of coverage.

5. Blend well: Make sure to blend the foundation well, especially along the jawline and hairline, to avoid any harsh lines or visible patches of foundation.

6. Set with powder (optional): If you want extra staying power, you can set your mineral foundation with a translucent powder. Apply the powder lightly using a large, fluffy brush.

7. Finish with a spritz of setting spray (optional): A setting spray can help your makeup last longer and prevent it from smudging or transferring. Spritz a few times over your face from a distance of about 10 inches.

That's it! With these simple steps, you can achieve a flawless, natural-looking finish with mineral foundation.
