Simply so, how do I find the right foundation for makeup?
Secondly, should your foundation be lighter or darker?
As per beauty experts, your foundation must be one or two shades lighter than your skin tone. This is because when you use bronzer or contour then the foundation will blend it all together and give the perfect look to your face.
Do I Have a cool or warm undertone?
Finding your undertone: The colour of your veins
Take a look at the veins on the inside of your wrist. Do they appear more blue or green? If your veins appear more blue, you’re cool-toned but if you see more green, you’re warm-toned. If you see a fair amount of both both Green and Blue, you have a neutral undertone.
Why I look dark after applying foundation?
An acidic pH level on your skin can trigger oxidation process which can make your foundation look darker during the day. You can use diluted ACV as a toner on your face which will help your skin to find the ideal balance between dryness and oiliness.
Should I use silicone or water based foundation?
Water-based foundations will contain neither oil nor silicone at the top of their ingredient lists. Some water-based foundations may have silicones in them, but the quantity is so small that it isn’t worth mentioning. If you’re prone to breakouts, a water-based foundation will be the most gentle on your skin.
