FACE Column WHAT MAKEUP IS RIGHT FOR YOU As makeup lovers we love every opportunity to test out a brand new product and see if it will add any magic to our routines We rub pat and set our faces every day with little regard to how our skin is actually taking this makeup application The combination of products quality and application technique determine how your face looks throughout the day but what if you aren t wearing the right amount of makeup for your best face Some of us would rather go bare faced than try to leave my house with a touch of makeup on What even is that Personally I am full coverage all the way or nothing at all Like me you may feel set about your SHEER COVERAGE Gives the your skin but better look Perfect for hotter months and displaying freckles Sheer coverage foundations are less heavy than other foundations and may allow the skin to breathe more MEDIUM COVERAGE Cover scars discoloration and uneven skin tone Often buildable to full coverage Great for everyday makeup natural looks and soft glam FULL COVERAGE Skin where Cover every pore crease and mark on your face A full coverage foundation is essential for a glam look Wear to your happy hour dates with friends or to your Sweet 16th birthday to capture that Insta worthy pic coverage preference which isn t a complete shock But makeup looks can be achieved with vast combinations and amounts of products and you may be wearing more or less than you need to achieve your ideal look If you have mature skin a foundation isn t necessary 9 times out of 10 and you could easily trade it for a BB Cream or a flesh toned concealer and powder This gives coverage you want in certain areas without clogging your skin and feeling heavy or greasy by the days end A similar rule applies to teens being introduced to makeup It s best to start with less and work up to more trust every girl that s lived before you Of course there s no rule that says one must commit to one look Different occasions call for different products Read the descriptions to the left and find what s perfect for what And most importantly what s perfect for you 2
