This beauty is surprised at how well this makeup trick works to customize a foundation. |
All you need to do is add a little of your moisturizing lotion to any liquid foundation to thin a heavier formula. Rather than adding the moisturizer directly to the bottle of foundation, I find pouring a small amount in the palm of my hand with some foundation gives me more control over the amount of coverage that I need. Mix with a cotton swab and test until you’re satisfied with your new custom blend.
Start with a smaller amount of a moisturizer (dime size) to a slightly larger portion of foundation (quarter size) can turn a heavier formula for one that provides medium coverage. On the same note, pour a bit more of the moisturizer into that same amount of foundation and get light coverage. For the sheerest amount of coverage, use equals amounts of both the moisturizer and foundation.
This little makeup trick does work and will help you cut down on the clutter as well as expense of the need to buy so many foundations!
