Foundation:
Smoothing Out Skin Tone and Texture

Preparing to put on makeup is similar to preparing to paint: you want a clean, smooth canvas to start with.

That's what foundation does for you. It smoothes out your skin tone and texture. Foundation is essential for a polished look. Foundation alone can improve your appearance immensely, especially if your skin coloring is uneven, or if you have enlarged pores, facial imperfections, etc. Skilflully applied, foundation minimizes all of these things, creating the illusion of smooth, beautiful skin.

Always match your foundation to your actual skin color as closely as possible. There's nothing more artificial or worse looking than someone who appears to be wearing a mask.

To apply foundation, use a makeup sponge. Put a little bit of the foundation on the sponge, then dot it on your nose, cheeks, forehead and chin. Then blend evenly with the sponge all over your face, all the way to your hairline and down to the jaw. Take special care to blend foundation in well at the jawline so there isn't an obvious "line."
