It takes practice but first you apply a primer (I use elf’s putty primer”, and I use eye primer as well (urban decay eyeshadow primer potion) so my foundation doesn’t smear as much. Then I go in with concealer under my eyes and while that’s setting, I use Anastasia brow definer to make my eyebrows stick out more. After that I blend in my concealer and apply and blend in tiny dots of foundation around my face so it applies evenly.

Following that I use Laura Merciers’ translucent pressed setting powder and apply it over my face and neck. After that I apply my mascara on the top and bottom lashes (I use maybelines sky high mascara), then I go in with Clinique lipstick and apply chapstick over that before adding in elf’s glow lip reviver lip oil. The last two steps involve adding blush (I use the revolution blush stick), make sure you apply it two fingers length away for your nose and from your hairline.

Then I apply a few dots of Rare Beauty Positive Light Liquid Luminizer Highlight on my cheekbones and on the tip of my nose and the bridge of my nose. The last step is to set with elf’s setting spray (either the power grip or all night one) 3-4 times over your makeup and you’re done! I’m so sorry if this is a bit lengthy but I hope this helps 🫶🏻🫶🏻

Ok ok last note, make sure to apply foundation around your neck as well so you can’t tell where your makeup starts and ends

Of course! I had to figure out my own makeup stuff with a lot of trial and error but eventually I got it down, I also use Clinique’s Even Better foundation!

Could you elaborate a bit more? Like is it the color that doesn’t seem to match or just adjusting to wearing makeup in general?

It’s a bit strange seeing yourself wearing makeup if you’ve never really worn it before. But I think finding the right foundation and using blending powder really helps it blend together. I have extremely pale skin so I know to grab the lightest shade of everything, so as long you go into stores and see if they have samples you can try you can ensure the color matches. I personally really like Clinique for foundation it applies super smooth

And also making sure you’re not applying excessive amounts of foundations prevents it from appearing cakey
