CHOOSING
THE RIGHT FOUNDATION
How you apply
makeup is as important as the makeup itself. The first and most
important step is finding the right foundation.
It can make the difference between having a natural, flawless finish
or looking as if you are wearing a mask.
Most women have
yellow based skin. They include most Caucasian and all Asian, Latin
and African women. To apply foundation that will perfectly match
your complexion, you must find one with a yellow base. If you don't, your makeup will look too pink, orange and two-toned.
The foundation
market today is saturated with many types and brands of foundations.
At the cosmetics counter you are confronted with an array of choices
- liquid, cream, oil-free, powder, allergy tested, cake, stick,
stay-on, hypoallergenic, cream to powder, non-comedogenic and camouflage
foundations. It is indeed quite a mind-blowing experience, especially
if you are a first time buyer.
To make it easy
to apply makeup professionally and determine the foundation that's
right for you, we have placed foundations into four major categories:
LIQUID
FOUNDATIONS
Liquid foundations
usually offer sheer coverage and provide a natural look. Most women
prefer a liquid foundation because it is easy to apply and fits
like a `second skin'. They are available in water-based and oil-based
formulas.
Sacha's "Stay-On
Color" Liquid Foundation is oil-free and semi-matte.
When you apply makeup, it provides sheer coverage. It is yellow-based
and will perfectly match your skin tone. It is suitable for normal,
oily or combination skin types.
