Best foundations to use:
- Smooth Mineral Glow - Liquid Foundation
- Mineral Pressed Foundation or Mineral Loose Powder Foundation
Best Tools to use:
- Rounded Blending Brush
- Kabuki Brush - (For Mineral Powders ONLY)
- Clean Fingers
Step 1: Cleanse using a cleanser (essential)
Step 2: Apply your Serums (see Below) / Moisturiser
Step 3: Prep using your Lust primer of choice (Mattifying Gel - Green or Mineral Primer - Clear). Apply your primer as you would a moisturiser and work in until you feel it get slightly tacky. Then you are ready to start applying your liquid foundation of choice.
Step 4: Fingers- When using your fingers, apply as you would a moisturiser. Making sure you work it into the skin, so the product isn't sitting on the surface of your face.
Brush- When using the rounded blending brush. Split your face into 4 sections. Grab enough product for your 1st section and start working it in. Starting from the jaw line and working your way up, using pressing motions. This will ensure the product is getting pressed into the skin and not sitting on the surface. You want to make sure you have stopped blending before your foundation has started to dry, as this can cause a balling effect or patchiness. Basically girl blend, blend, blend. But there is such a thing as over blending, so make sure you stop yourself in time.
