Tip of the Day: 04.10.2019

A quick guide to determining which kind of foundation you need. Take a piece of sticky tape, apply it to your cheek, pressing it on, then leave for 30 seconds. If there are small flakes of skin stuck to it when you remove it, your complexion is dry and in need of a moisturising foundation. If you think you have oily skin, wash your face and leave it for two hours; press a piece of tissue against the side of your nose and leave it for five seconds. If it becomes transparent, you’re oily and should look for an oil-free or fresh-matte foundation. For combination skin, go for a light and dewy formulation. (If you’re confused, well… that’s what beauty counter consultants are for.)
