At which step should the powder be used

Pressed powder can be used to set makeup or touch up makeup, which is very convenient. It is usually used last to set the makeup and prevent it from smudging. There are many kinds of pressed powder, and different pressed powders have different effects. Try to choose a color that is similar to your skin tone, and don’t choose a color with a huge color difference just to make you look whiter. Pay special attention to the color difference between the neck and face. The neck is the most easily overlooked part, so give it the same care.

Use powder after makeup

The most common way to use pressed powder is after applying foundation. When you have just applied foundation, your face is usually oily. At this time, gently pressing the pressed powder on your face can make the makeup immediately appear matte, help the foundation to adhere better, and prolong the duration of the makeup.

Use powder after primer

Pressed cake can be used after primer, and it can act as both a base makeup product and a setting makeup product. Pressed cake has the functions of concealing blemishes and modifying skin tone. For women with good skin foundation, it is completely sufficient to use pressed cake as a base makeup. The pressed cake itself also has a setting makeup effect. There is no need to use other setting makeup products after using pressed cake.

Use powder when your face is oily

Pressed powder has a cooling feeling, so it is a standard item for women who wear makeup in the summer. When your face becomes oily while you are outdoors, just use pressed powder and the oily feeling will disappear immediately, replaced by a fresh and clean makeup look.

Pressed powder is used when removing makeup

In addition to its makeup-setting effect, powder cake has another powerful feature: it can be used for touch-ups. Powder cakes are small and easy to carry, and can be used to touch up makeup anytime and anywhere. Summer is a high-risk season for makeup removal, and powder cakes are at their best for touch-ups. Powder cakes are very natural when used to touch up makeup, and can make your makeup beautiful again.

Wet use method

1. After applying foundation, wet the powder puff first, make it 80% wet, then dip a little powder in it and apply it on the skin by tapping.

2. Start from the T zone and wipe the entire face from inside to outside. Pay attention to press a few more times on areas with spots and uneven skin tone to cover the spots. Do not apply too much on the lower eyelids and nose wings to avoid a heavy feeling.

3. Finally, use a clean sponge to gently pat your face to blend the foundation with the skin and improve the lasting adhesion of the powder.

Dry use method

1. First, use a powder puff to take an appropriate amount of powder, about one-third of the powder puff, and press the powder.

2. Apply powder from the inside to the outside of the cheek. Apply powder once with the amount of powder applied in step 1. Apply to the zygomatic muscles first, wipe evenly, then dip in powder and extend to both sides of the cheeks.

3. Dip the powder in the same way and apply it on the upper part of the eyelids first, wiping it lightly without applying too much force, and then extend it to the temples. There is no need to re-apply powder to the inner corners of the eyes. The eyelids are thin, so it will look natural if you wipe them with the remaining powder.

4. After wiping each area, dip the powder again and wipe from between the eyebrows upwards, and wipe the forehead from bottom to top. Pay special attention to the position of the bun. Do not apply too heavy to avoid a significant color difference with the scalp color.

5. Start rubbing from the center of the eyebrows to the nose, and work from top to bottom to cover the pores on the nose. For tiny areas such as the wings of the nose and corners of the mouth, we can fold the powder puff in half, dip it in an appropriate amount of powder, and gently press on these areas.

6. When wiping under the lips, fold the powder puff in half after dipping it in powder and soften it. This way, the powder will not be so thick when applying makeup because the skin tone around the lips is darker. If the powder is too thick, it will give a fake feeling. When applying powder on the cheeks, be sure to extend it to the neck and ears to achieve a harmonious overall skin tone.

7. The color of the neck should be kept consistent, otherwise it will be embarrassing if the color difference between the face and neck is too big. Apply powder on the neck, then use a clean powder puff to gently spread it evenly and gently to make the foundation adhere better. That's it.
