The face is two shades whiter than the neck, the top beauty can't hold!

When you get up in the morning and want to go out after drawing your makeup beautifully, you look in the mirror and find that your neck and face are not in the same country at all! I believe that many fairies will have such embarrassment, today I will share with you, how to make our neck and face as beautiful.

Why is the face whiter than the neck?

The color of the base cream does not match your face

Top beauty can not hold!

BB creams or CC creams are very important to us. They directly determine the color of our skin and the state of our pores, so if the color is too bright, it will make the whole face look bright white. The color of the primer is known as the key color that determines the skin color, so even if the foundation, powder, or blush that follows matches the skin color, it is useless.

The color of foundation does not match your face color

Foundation is applied after primer, and there are various kinds of foundations in liquid and powder form. Most people choose a foundation that is one shade brighter than their skin tone, but we recommend that you can actually choose a darker shade. After the foundation is applied, the skin color will already be a little brighter than normal skin tone, so if the foundation color is also very bright, then it will cause the face to be too white. Therefore, we must distinguish between the "desired skin tone" and the "skin tone that suits you".

Applying too evenly

Do many people think that they should apply the same amount of foundation or primer to all parts of their face when applying makeup? Actually, the answer is wrong. You can apply more to key areas such as cheeks and the bridge of the nose, while other parts can be layered with a light dab. If you apply it too evenly, it will look unnatural.

Sunscreen can also make the face look white

The most important thing in the sunscreen is the "UV scattering agent", which is the role of reflecting light, so it will naturally make the face look white. Sunscreen is usually the first step in makeup application, so adjust the color of the base and foundation behind it according to the sunscreen.

Makeup drawn too thick

If you want to make your skin look brighter, cover your pores, or make your face look more beautiful, it's easy to apply too much makeup because you want to fulfill too many wishes. The makeup applied too thick is not only unnatural, but also particularly white. Especially when taking pictures, if there is a flash, it will look white and white face.

Expensive pearl powder series cosmetics reflect white face

The pearl powder cosmetics are delicate and elegant, but at the same time, it is possible to have a white light because of the strong shine.

Then

What exactly should we do

What can we do to keep the face and neck in one tone?

1. Make sure to choose a base and foundation that suits your skin tone, or one shade darker.

2. Fully moisturize before applying makeup.

3. Use a powder puff, sponge or powder brush to apply makeup, not your hands. It is easy to apply thick with hands.

4. Apply in layers, not all parts of the same thick.

5. Apply from the neck to the collarbone as well. Apply a layer of sunscreen first, then a light layer of primer.
