The Importance of Skin Prep
One of the most common mistakes that can lead to a cakey makeup look is poor skin preparation. Here's a professional tip to avoid this:
Prioritize Skin Hydration:
Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate: Ensure your skin is well-hydrated before applying any makeup. A well-hydrated skin acts as a smooth canvas, making makeup application seamless.
Lightweight Moisturizer: Opt for a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer that won't clog pores or create a greasy base.
Primer Power: A good primer can help to fill in pores, minimize fine lines, and create a smooth surface for makeup application. Choose a primer that suits your skin type.
By following these steps, you can create a flawless, natural-looking makeup finish that lasts all day long.
