Dark Face Using Foundation Problems Will Be Solved In 6 Ways!
He has bought and used many brands of foundations -
drugstore, high end etc. But whatever you are using, it looks dark after an
hour. But this is the complaint of many. The foundation is oxidized. As a
result, the skin looks dark. Do we know what oxidation is? Just as an apple is
cut and darkened by exposure to oxygen in the air, so does a foundation on the
skin.
For this oxidation, however, no specific cause can be
identified. How the foundation oil and pigment reacts with the natural oil of
the skin, the pH level of the upper layer of the skin, the humidity of the air,
the intensity of the sun - this is usually due to many reasons.
What is the way to get rid of this problem? Let's not look.
1)Wrong with
skin care
Even if you don't use the perfect cleanser, toner and
moisturizer according to your skin type, foundation oxidation can often be a
problem. So use a good quality cleanser, toner and moisturizer according to
your skin type. And if possible, apply a face pack, it will make the skin look
fresh.
2) Using
primer
The primer not only helps to visually minimize the pores of the
skin, but also helps to create a layer between the skin and the foundation,
thus helping to prevent a reaction with the foundation and the skin's natural
oils.
If the skin is dry, use hydrating primer, if it is oily, use
matifying primer. And if the combination is dry or normal and the T-zone and
other small parts are oily then you must use hydrating primer for dry place and
matifying primer for oily place. See if the primer is made in silicone based
formula. The primer made in silicone based formula helps in inhibiting the
oxidation process.
3) Changing
the brand and buying by looking at your own undertone
Even if you buy a foundation without understanding your own
undertone, many times this problem occurs. Again, the foundation of some brands
is oxidized. So look for your own undertone and buy a foundation of perfect
shade. You can also change the brand.
4) Blotting the skin
3-5 minutes after applying the primer, once again open a
thin layer from a good quality facial tissue (two layers) and blot the skin.
And after applying the foundation, after blending, blot the skin again with
another thin layer. Excess oil on the surface of the skin will be removed, thus
preventing the oxidation process.
5) Properly
set makeup
Talc-based loose powders or compact powders can clog pores,
and they can make the skin more dry, making the skin look wrinkled. Silica
powder is a good option in this case. It is also important to use a good
quality makeup setting spray. Whether you are indoors, or outdoors, if you do
not use makeup setting spray, makeup can be smudged, will not look vibrant.
6) To fix
the pH balance of the skin
Even if the normal pH level of the skin is low / high for
any reason, the foundation can be oxidized. You must use good quality toner
according to your skin type. Personally, I have decided to use many types of
toners and finally come up with a routine, which is to use 1: 1 ratio and
unfiltered apple cider vinegar. My skin is oily. Those whose skin is dry can
use it in the ratio of 2: 1. Alcohol-rich toners often overdry the skin. It is
better to use toner by understanding the skin type.
Never use expired content. Always buy foundation with time
on hand. Understand your own undertone and perfect shade. Always choose the
place just above the J-line to try the foundation. After trying the foundation
in the store, immediately go around a bit without looking, look at other
products and buy. After exactly 15 minutes, come out in daylight and see if the
foundation has oxidized, if the skin looks like a natural color. If all goes
well, buy that foundation.
