Tips and Tricks for a Good Makeup Base

If you want your makeup to be on point every day, you will need to have a good base. First step to a good base is a clean face. A good skin care routine is very important. You should wash your face in the morning and at night. In the morning, make sure you clean your face to have a clean slate to work on. After, you should apply a face primer to make sure your foundation goes on smoothly and stays on. There are a lot of drug store brands that have great primers for a small amount of money. Maybelline has a great primer for oily skin. The name of the primer is called Baby Skin. E.L.F. also has a lot of great face primers. There’s primers to help with oily, dry, combination skin. Also, there are matte and dewy primers. Primers are very important for the base because with them, foundation goes on so much smoother and cleaner. They also let the foundation stay on longer.

When you take your makeup off at the end of the day, make sure you remove all of it. Then, wash your face. After washing your face, apply toner. Toner removes all the dirt and excess makeup. Once again, there are a lot of drugstore options for toner that work wonderfully and they are rather cheap. After toning, you can apply moisturizer. Moisturizer is great for your skin and can help anti-age. It’s also important to start searching for foundations and moisturizers that have SPF in them to protect your skin. Of course, your skin care routine can be anything you want it to be, but these are just some pointers. Hopefully these tips will help you get a great base to apply some makeup to.
