Types of Foundation Makeup
From dry skin, to oily skin, and to aging skin, there is a foundation for every skin type. Apart from this, it is important to sit with a makeup consultant and find out the right color for your skin tone. Once you have these solutions, you are good to go.
Liquid Foundation
Liquid foundation is most popular among all age groups, and works well even as foundation makeup for aging skin. This is because it spreads well and helps in concealing all signs related to again that begin to appear on the skin. When choosing foundation makeup for oily skin, go for a water based liquid foundation, as this does not produce the shine that an oil based liquid foundation does. In fact, it spreads easily and clearly evens out the skin tone, making your skin appear less oily. On the other hand, oil based liquid foundation is best for those who have dry or wrinkled skin.

Mousse Foundation
Mousse foundation is a type of foundation that is thick, and has a consistency like that of whipped cream. It is a lighter type of foundation and is great as foundation makeup for older women. This is because, unlike other types of foundation, mousse foundation does not settle in the fine lines that develop in the process of aging.

Spray Foundation
Spray foundation is a type of foundation that is suggested for acne prone skin. It is available in an aerosol, that can be applied after spraying it on a sponge, or directly on the skin. Spray foundation makeup is great as you can use a small amount to refresh your makeup every now and then, and even works well to retain your makeup for longer periods.

Foundation Makeup Tips
After you have purchased a foundation of your choice, it is time to learn how to apply foundation makeup to get it right. Follow these tips:
Foundation makeup can be applied either with a sponge, a brush or with your fingers. For a light layer, a sponge is the best option as it blends well into the skin with the help of this applicator. However, you may waste the product because it is absorbed by the sponge. An alternative to this is the brush. A brush also helps to spread the foundation easily, and is indeed preferred by many women over the sponge. It is perfect when you need to refresh your foundation in the course of the day. Lastly you may use your fingers, but it is slightly difficult to blend the foundation with them. Try out each of these tools to see what you are most comfortable with.
- Start applying the foundation at the cheek area. Begin spreading it in a downward stroke, towards the jawline and the neck. Similarly, spread the remainder towards the hairline. This method is called combing the face.
- Use a loose powder to set the foundation if you have oily skin. It gives a great sheer without making the skin look oily. On the other hand, pressed powder is a convenient choice as it covers up lines in older women. It is also great to touch up your make up in the course of the day. Don't apply too much as it makes the face look caked with makeup.
- Lastly, if your skin is not oily, use a blotting tissue to absorb excess makeup.
