Face Foundation Makeup

However, you might not have found the proper face foundation makeup yet, regardless of whether you've been an expert in makeup for what seems like ages or are a novice attempting to find your way through the complicated, oversaturated world of beauty products. And that's totally okay!

At Street Wear Cosmetics, we have bought for you an amazing range of high-coverage foundations, that goes well with all skin tones and helps you achieve that flawless makeup look. 

What is Face Foundation?

Face Foundation is the most important part of makeup. Applying it all over your face helps in laying a smooth foundation for the rest of your makeup. With the right formula, it helps conceal flaws, even out your skin tone, muddle flaws, and produce an overall smooth and even canvas-like skin ready for the rest of the makeup.

Why Foundation is Important for Face Makeup?

The importance of a face foundation can be gauged from its name only. It’s the base on which the rest of your makeup depends. It can make or break your look. A flawlessly applied foundation helps in boosting self-confidence, hides skin imperfections and sets an even skin tone. 

While vitamin D is produced in the skin when exposed to sunshine, however, too much sun exposure can cause skin damage and premature ageing. Natural sun protection is a feature of a good foundation such as Street Wear’s Stay on Full Coverage Foundation with SPF 25.

A good high-coverage foundation hides skin imperfections giving it a smoother finish and a healthy glow. Active ingredients present such as Aloe Vera, Malva Sylvestris (Mallow) Extract, Ginkgo Biloba, Lilium Candidum Bulb, Eriodictyon Californicum Ferment, Cymbidium Grandiflorum (Orchid) Flower work actively to lighten and nourish your skin.

A lightweight foundation makeup serves as an efficient barrier to prevent air pollutants from settling on the skin's surface, thus slowing down the damage they cause to the skin.

Right foundation shade according to skin tone

Know Your Undertone

When choosing the ideal foundation makeup for yourself, keep in mind that your complexion and undertone are not the same. In general, there are three types of skin undertone- warm, cool and neutral. The finest way to check it is through veins. Check for the veins on the inner side of your wrists.

• Veins that are blue or purple in colour have a cool undertone.
• A fair or wheatish skin tone and green veins show a warm undertone. 
• You are most likely to have a neutral undertone with an olive tint if you are unsure of which colour is most noticeable in your veins.

Wheatish skin tone

Use a liquid foundation if you have a wheatish skin tone. Cream-based foundation makeup on such skin tones may look oily. Wearing a face foundation that is too light could make you look pale. Your face will just appear powdered, spotty, and uneven as a result. A good face foundation should make your skin appear luminous and healthy.

A light shade of Street Wear’s Liquid Foundation is perfect for a wheatish or fair skin tone. 

Dusky skin tone

Use a matte finish high coverage foundation if you have a dusky skin tone. Street Wear’s Liquid waterproof foundation comes in 4 different shades, pick a light-medium shade as it goes best with your skin. 

Olive skin tone

Beauty and makeup fans regard olive skin tone as a blessing. Getting the perfect makeup look can be difficult if one doesn't already have the best foundations for olive skin in their arsenal. Hence, Street Wear Cosmetics has bought for you 6 shades of Stay On Full Cover foundation with SPF 25 that blends well with your skin tone and gives you that dreamy dewy look. For an olive skin tone, you can use Rose Vanilla, Natural Honey or a Rose Beige shade.

Tips & Hacks of Using Foundation Makeup 

1. Cleanse Your Skin

   Cleanse your face properly before applying face foundation makeup. The secret to having flawless-looking makeup is to prepare your skin well before, otherwise, the problem areas of your skin such as dry, flaky, and textured skin get highlighted after applying foundation. After cleansing your skin, hydrate it by using a light moisturiser.

2. Apply Lightweight Foundation Makeup With the Correct Tools

   How you apply lightweight foundation, matters the most. There are numerous tools available for applying foundation, including foundation brushes, makeup sponges, and beauty blender sponges, however, you must use the best tool that works for your face. You can also blend the face foundation makeup with your own fingers.

3. Apply Face Foundation Makeup Inside Out 

   Starting at the middle of your forehead and moving down toward your nose and chin, begin by applying full coverage foundation to the centre of your face. Just a few tiny foundation dots should be placed around your face's edges. Beginning in the middle of your face and moving outward, blend your foundation.

4. Do Not Leave Ear and Neck 

   These two are a crucial part of your face makeup. To ensure that the foundation on your neck and ears blends flawlessly with the foundation on your face, apply a very thin coating of foundation to both areas. Use Street Wear’s high-coverage foundation for a fuller appearance.

Step-by-Step Guide to remove the Face Foundation

1. Cleanse with Gentle Face Wash and Water

   Wipes can be a great way as the first step to start removing the foundation. But the best way to get rid of residue and prepare your skin for a nice nighttime routine is to use water and face wash. If you solely use wipes and then moisturise, you run the risk of clogging your pores with debris and waking up with breakouts or blackheads.

2. Go for Steaming Your Face

   Before washing the waterproof foundation with water, you can also steam your face. Hover your face over a bowl or sink filled with hot water for a few minutes. Your pores will open up as a result of the steam, and it will be simpler to deep-clean your skin with the help of a cleaner.

3. Tie Your Hair

   We completely understand: Putting your hair up in a ponytail can seem like too much work when it's late at night and your bed is calling. But if you don't, you're probably stopping washing your face a few inches close to your hairline. To make sure you remove all traces of makeup, take the extra 2 seconds to tie it back or put on a headband.

4. Use Flat Cotton Pads

   When you're trying to cleanse and settle down your skin, cotton balls can irritate you by leaving behind residue or breaking down while being used, leaving fibres on your skin or lashes. Therefore, always use flat cotton pads over cotton balls since they act as magical cushions to draw everything out.

5. Do Not Forget to Apply a Moisturiser

   High Coverage Foundation removal should always be accompanied by at least some targeted moisture. Removing makeup can dry out your face, hence a good moisturiser helps in keeping it supple and moisturised.

What to Keep in Mind Before Buying a Foundation

1. Knowing Your Skin Tone & Undertone is Important

   Your undertone is the shade that lies just below the skin's surface and blends in with any cosmetics you may use on top of it. If done correctly, foundation and concealer, blend seamlessly to create an appearance that is identical to skin. A "naturally" flawless-looking skin requires doing everything perfectly. But if you do it wrong, you become a living example of what NOT to do.

2. Avoid Making Decisions Based on Wrist Swatching 

   Many people have a skin of varying shades on their hands, necks, and faces. The concept of "testing it on your hand" is invalid in such circumstances. You can be two different hues or you might be tanned. You can try it on your cheek or the side of your face if the tones of your face and neck match. It is preferable to test on your forehead if it is somewhat more tanned as compared to your cheeks. You can tell if a colour is the best foundation tone for you when it blends into your skin. Buy the best face foundation in India at Street Wear.

3. Know Your Skin Type

   Choose a hydrating foundation like Street Wear’s Stay On Face Foundation if you have dry skin. Choose a matte or velvet texture if your skin is oily or prone to breakout, our Stay On Lightweight Foundation comes with Oil-free formula making it the best for you. Opt for our Liquid Foundation to provide light to medium coverage if you have normal skin, it provides the perfect matte finish.

4. Pick as Per Season

   You won't be able to use the same foundation colour all year long. Our skin seems to warm up in the spring and summer when we are more active outside and in the sunlight. Even though you use sunscreen every day, our sound warms up. So, for the sake of making your skin glow, be considerate enough to choose various foundations for each season. Using a lightweight foundation is however feasible in all seasons.
