The quest for an impeccable makeup base

We spend rather extravagantly purchasing a vast array of beauty products by imported brands. However, one thing that never seems to satisfy us in the context of results in the foundation. With a myriad of finishes and hues, it's hard to find the ideal foundation that provides the impeccable finish. The secret to making the perfect makeup base lies in what we mix our foundation with.

Read on to find about different products you can use in combination with our preferred foundation formula to get the finish you always yearned for.

Moisturizer - If you are keen on using matte-liquid foundation but are skeptical it may be too heavy for you, mix a small amount of moisturizer to sheer it out. To find the right amount to mix, start with an equivalent measure of both—one pea-sized spot of foundation and one of lotion combined on your palm. At that point, contingent on the amount of coverage required, you can vary the quantity of the moisturizer you mixing. The moisturizer helps your foundation mix better and also, hydrates your skin making you look naturally beautiful.

Beauty Oils - For all individuals with dry skin, beauty oils such as argon oil and almond oil are nothing less than a blessing. By blending a drop or two into your foundation, you can get an elusive consistency which makes it simpler to mix the base, adding to the natural appeal of your makeup. When it comes to the best oil to mix with foundation, it certainly depends on your skin type.

Highlighter - Getting a radiant skin doesn't necessarily imply compromising the shade or coverage of your foundation. You can achieve that just by blending in a fluid-based highlighter. Try picking a highlighter that provides a sheer finish, instead of a glistening, shimmery one. Lightweight formula is a safe bet as it mixes consistently with your foundation to leave an understated yet natural sparkle.
By mixing the above-mentioned products with your foundation as per your individual needs you are bound to get glowing results.

Types of Kabuki Brushes and How to Use Them
