How to apply foundation/make up?

alright, well this question is long overdue but i feel completely clueless. is there a difference between ';liquid makeup'; and ';foundation';? and uhhh, wow i feel foolish, but how do you apply liquid foundation? like not only the tips and tricks, but the basics too. any help is MUCH appreciated. thanks!How to apply foundation/make up?
Well the biggest thing about applying a liquid makeup is finding the exact match for your skin tone. Normally going to a beauty specialist (those found in the mall department stores) will be the easiest way of finding the correct color. You don't necessarily need to go with that particular brand but it will give you the guidelines you need to choose your correct color in your preferred brand. I normally go something long lasting. Then I put a small amount of foundation (which is the same as liquid makeup, but called foundation because it is the first step of applying makeup) and I also put some lotion, normally something with SPF) and apply the foundation and lotion together all over my face in one step. Make sure you apply under your chin and blend it downward to prevent the dreaded makeup line! I normally finish up with a powder that matches my foundation color. I hope this helps, if you have any questions feel free to email me.How to apply foundation/make up?
I don't find there to be a difference between liquid makeup and foundation. I apply my liquid makeup by putting a nice sized dot on my chin, both cheeks, nose, and forehead and then blending it together by rubbing my face with my hand. That way, my foundation is blended evenly and blended in. You also want to buy a color that is right for your skin tone.
lol yea its the same thing....but theres liquid..and theres powder..powder is better for oily skins and acne prone... i use liquid...im only 15 but ive been doing make up for the past 4 years....usually i apply the liquid foundation on the back of my hand then blend it out and apply it onto the forehead, the cheeks, the nose, the chin, upper lip ( if its a little discolored ) and rub the rst of on the kneck to blend in.... I use to use a big blush brush but i found that a smaller Blush brush about 1 inch thick helps make it look more flawless and airbrush...u just blend out the splotches of liquid foundation you already applied to the face and do it in a circular motion out to the hair line and down to the chin...makesure there arent any lines....thats why you must do it in a circular motion...it loooks really flawless when i do it on myself...and im an assistant for a makeup artist around my area.
