Tips 2 # Is Foundation is a MUST?

September 27, 2009

skin-care-essentials-headerA lot of people think that applying foundation daily will spoiled the skin of their face. Let me tell you this, this is not the right conception. In fact, we should have a habit of applying  foundation daily after our moisturizer.

The reason is a good foundation is one layer of protection to your face. It is like you must wear a shirt when you walk out from you house.

But of course, choose the right foundation is very important! The bad foundation will really spoiled your skin.

QUESTIONS:

  • What kind of foundation is consider good?
    Choose the organic and tested foundation because if you apply the non-organic foundation it is like applying chemicals on your face. I personally recommend to use Artistry foundation. Reason is, it is one of the top 5 brand in the world and 100% organic.
  • Which foundation should I use?
    First of all, understand your skin types and needs. Then only you choose the right foundation. There are 3 types of foundations:
    Liquid foundation
    This type of foundation is generally found in a bottle. It comes in a variety of textures from very sheer to heavy, full coverage. Some of this liquid foundation is 100% oil free is good for people who has oily skin. Some of this is light weight and semi-matte finish is good for people who has combination to oily or combination to dry skin.

    Recommendation:
    ARTISTRY Absolute Oil Control Foundation
    - Look flawless and 100% oil-free formula feels feather-light, even as it absorbs 300% of its weight in oil

    ARTISTRY Self-Defining Sheer Foundation
    - The perfect match of every skin tone, comfortable, lightweight, semi-matte finish enhances skin’s natural beauty.

    Cake foundation
    This foundation is found in compact or stick form gives the most amount of coverage, as it has very dense pigment. It is good for very dark skin as well as oily skin or combination to oily skin. I like this type of foundation because I apply very little and it is likely to slide or melt off of oily skin due to its consistency and dense pigment.

    Recommendation:
    Artistry Ideal Dual Powder Foundation
    - “Intelligent” powder connects to your skin and adjusts to match and reflect each individual skin tone and 3D micro-sphere powder evens skin tone and conceals fine lines and wrinkles

    Cream Foundation
    This usually comes in pots or tubes an has a thicker consistency but still provides a wide variety of coverage, from light to heavy. It contains more pigment than liquid foundation. Use less of it to get the same coverage as liquid foundation. It is good for people who has combination to dry skin and dry skin.

    Recommendation:
    ARTISTRY TIME DEFIANCE Firming Creme Foundation
    - A rich foundation to not just perfect, but also protect your skin.

    A lot of women feel like they have to wear foundation, but truth be told, they don’t. Tinted moisturizer is another great way to get a smooth finish and moisturize the skin. If women have clear and lovely skin, they can skip foundation. http://bit.ly/8ApiDs
