Just put a little bit where you apply your makeup, you don't want your face to look white. Try using a big makeup brush to put it on.Ok ive heard if you but baby powder on ur face it keeps you make up on longer. so how much and stuff....?
Putting face powder on your skin after foundation sets the foundation.





Baby powder has different properties and isnt the same as face powder.





Face powder does this though.





you should always use (non-oil-free) moisturizer on your skin no matter what your skin condition is.
i would not suggest putting baby powder on your face. if you have dry skin, i would not suggest a powder foundation. use a liquid foundation instead.





if you want your makeup to stay, here are my suggestions:


moisturize your skin. use a face primer like laura mercier. then use a liquid foundation or tinted moisturizer. use concealer where needed. using a large blush brush, lightly powder your face with a loose powder. apply your make up and set it again with another light dusting of loose powder.





the face primer keeps the makeup from slipping and the powder will set it. this is the best way to keep your makeup on all day.
i have never heard of using baby powder. you are better off using a translucent face powder. i use the sheer powder from bobbi brown to set my liquid foundation and to help with the shine factor from oily skin. i put on my foundation, then take a big fluffy brush and just brush a bit on my face.
Your makeup is made mostly of water mixed with chemicals and you don't gain anything by keeping it ';on'; all day, rather';fresh'; all day is probably what you are looking to do.


Think about those lipsticks that stay on all day. The biggest complaint is that they are drying and people who use them don't have very pretty lip skin after a while.


Puting baby powder on your face wouldn't be helpful . Here is a very inexpensive regiment to try and I believe you will be very happy with the results. When I name the product to use I will use the = sign to tell you what it does the same job as.


WASH FACE


Phisoderm = cetaphil (cetaphil is the best thing ever to use on your face if you can spend $8.00 for a pump of 8 oz. Phisoderm is what the hospitals used to clean wounds because of it's very gentleness to skin and still removed dirt and bateria. both come in different skin types, I highly suggest you start with normal skin type first because until you get your skin in that healthy glow state you really can't tell what skin type you are.


USE ASTRINGENT


tiny plastic travel spray bottle filled with witch hazel = aveda toner


just close your eyes and spritz all over your face lightly. It should feel like a cooling mist.


APPLY MOISTURIZER - WHERE YOU NEED IT


avoid that T zone of lower part of your forehead, nose and chin completely. use oil of olay = expensive department store stuff


after applying moisturize your face should feel fresh, not greasy and not tight. wait at least 5 minutes. in the meantime curl your eye lashes and apply conceler on your eye lids and all around your eye, like a raccoon. should be one shade lighter than skin sounds silly but conceler will be the building block for your makeup to adhere and stay fresh.


Now that your moisturizer has been stablized, you have let it set in and you aren't greasy and you aren't tight feeling. take the conceler stick or liquid and dap light amounts on forehead and chin only. these are the two spots that makeup wears off of first, your cheeks will have a layer of blush and so they keep the makeup longer (every notice that?)


Now you look kind of too light and your eyes are really standing out as white. apply a foundation that is a liquid powder type in a compact but don't use your fingers, use the softess touch you have as if barely getting near the surface and breeze over it with the makeup round sponge that comes in the compact. placement for fondation is everywhere except around the eye and under it. again, let it set and curl those eyelashes again:) then the last step is to take loose powder (we call it setting powder) you should have two shades, one that is illuminous and light and one that is just your skintone. the light one is brushed over your entire eye lid, eyelashes and all. (because you have curled your lashes twice and added powder to them you will see amazing lashes with just one coat of mascara) and down under your eyes. the skintone powder should be brushed extremely lightly over your cheeks, forehead and chin. Then alway use a blush that is within your tone.


Now you have layered up the perfect makeup that will withstand 12 hours of whatever. If you are too dry during the day pack that little spritz bottle mentioned with mineral water (bottled just like drinking water) and spritz only where and when you feel dry. your skin will glow!


Twice a week use a St Ives mask / or scrub that suites your skin type and this will remove surface dry layers and your skin will get prettier and prettier. Oh, by the way, I suggest physicans formula for both loose powders and soft big brushes,


I bet you are going to be so fab with this 10 regiment.


and if you can, get a free facial at one the beauty counters because they will tell you what tones you are, what skin type and what color suites your complexion for eye shadow,then when they try to sell you something just say no thanks and head for the nearest CVS pharmacy and get those colors, etc.


I love makeup and have an outlet store hear by called the cosmetic store. Did you know that the same company owns este lauder and Lore'l? It also has great products from Mac, and other big names for much less. Law dictates that the cosmetics be within expiration dates so you really are buying the same exact thing as the deptartment stores.
