Your makeup, especially foundation sticks better to your face when your skin is clean, moisturized and ready for application.  That means you must get in the habit of caring for your skin everyday.  Because skin that is well-cared for not only is it healthier but it allows for a smoother makeup application.

So, to prepare your face for perfect looking makeup, here’s what you do:

1.  Apply cleansing cream or lotion.

Before you start, use a headband or hair clip to pull your hair back and keep it out of the way.

Next, place dabs of cleanser on your forehead, nose, cheeks, chin and neck.  Use light upwards and outward circular movements to spread the cleanser over your face and neck.

2.  Remove cleanser.

Use tissue, a damp washcloth or moist cotton balls to remove the cleanser.  Be especially gentle when removing the cleanser from the delicate skin around the eyes.

Apply cleanser as needed.

3.  Apply astringent toner.

Moisten a cotton ball with the toner and smooth the cotton ball over your entire face and under the chin and neck.

4.  Apply moisturizer.

If  you have dry and delicate skin, apply a moisturizing lotion.  Simply dab a small amount of the moisturizer on the forehead, cheeks, chin and neck.  Blend upward over the face.  Also, it’s a good idea to apply a small amount of eye cream around your eyes.

5. Groom Eyebrows

This is the perfect time to remove any stray eyebrow hairs.  Just pull the hair in the same direction in which it grows.

Simply follow these five easy steps and voila, your skin is ready for a flawless makeup application.
