No doubts, every woman wants to look irresistible, so she tries various diets, buys brand-new shampoos and cosmetics, searches for new makeup techniques, buys extremely expensive things… but very often woman forget about the first step on the way to a perfect look.

Powder can be worn with or without foundation. There are two major types of face powder – loose and pressed. As for me the best powders are made by Estee Lauder, but these powders are not cheap. Mary Kay powders are not bad as well and they are not so pricey.

Loose powder from Chair Ocree

So, loose powder is very popular ‘cause it gives natural look to skin and it can be applied at home with a simple brush. Also, skin looks like a porcelain one – your face is flawless.

While applying loose powder, concentrate on cheeks and forehead. But, be careful, put a small amount of powder in container and gently apply it to your face, try to avoid over-powdering.

 Brushes for powder

Now, pressed powder. No doubts, it is very convenient to carry it with your ‘cause it is portable. It is a perfect variant for those who are always on the go. Pressed powder gives the skin a matte colouring. What is more, it a perfect way out for people with oily skin – they can apply pressed powder throughout the day.

Pressed powder

But, very often people have problems with their skin, so in such cases they need liquid foundation. But, remember, without a powder it is no use to apply it, ‘cause without powder your skin will look oily and glossy and sometimes uneven.

Cosmetic for face - liquid foundation

Nowadays, you can meet strange face powders: green and violet ones. So, be ready to this. Green face powders are ideal for those, possessing a red or ruddy complexion. If you constantly blush even without a decent reason – buy one. Violet powders are made for yellowish and dull complexion. The will return your skin its natural beauty and usual colour.

While choosing a powder take into consideration your own type of skin, skintone and skin condition, good luck!
