How to choose the right foundation for you

Choosing the right foundation is always hard because you sometimes can't find the right type and shade of foundation for you skin, well I'm going to tell you how to find the perfect foundation for you.

Choosing the right type-
When choosing the foundation you have to thing about your skin type. If you have dry skin you want to choose and oil based foundation as this will not cling to any dry patches and gives you a dewy finish and hides the fact you have dry skin.
If you have oily skin you want to go for a water based foundation. These foundations usually say matte somewhere on the container. This foundation will help mattefy your skin and control the oil.
If you have combination skin you want to choose a water based foundation but you have to be careful because some of these foundations do cling to dry patches so you want a good moisturizer and primer.

Choosing the colour-
When choosing the colour is always difficult because there isn't always the best range of colours. What you want to do is choose 3 colours which you think look the closest to your skin colour and swipe each one on the side of your chin going a little onto your neck and which ever disappears or blends into your skin is the right one for you.


I hope that this tip helped you in finding the right foundation for you
