Flawless long lasting foundation routine

Hi Ladies just wanted to show you all how I've been applying my foundation to help it last all day in this Summer heat. Hope you enjoy :)

Step 1:
I apply my concealer first followed by my primer. Some may take I'm crazy for doing in this way but I find that's what works best for me. 

 Step 2:
I spray my foundation brush with my setting spray until it's wet.

 Step 3:
Okay pay attention here. Being that your brush is wet only use half the amount of foundation that you normally would. I've been mixing these two together since one is too light & one is too dark. Being that the brush is wet you will have a dewy look.

Step 4:
If your not into the dewy look like me just apply whichever powder you'd like. 

Step 5:
The fun part now you get to play with blush, bronzer, & highlight.


Ladies seriously using a wet brush really worked wonders for me! I use less foundation & my skin looks flawless. Most importantly I don't have to touch up my makeup during the day & it doesn't melt off. 

Remember: You can use whichever  type of products work best for you. I just showed the ones that go with my skin type.

my review of the Sigma F05



This brush works great for contouring my nose, jawbone, & cheeks. Also works great at applying blush. I find that it does a great job at perfectly blending the makeup into my skin. Some blush/contour brushes had too much product to the skin causing me to look like a clown, but this brush is amazing. Once again I'm extremely happy with Sigma. The brush is really soft & fluffy. No shedding & holds up after cleaning it.

Small Contour- F05
Ideal to apply, blend or contour powder products. Softly rounded dome tip smoothly blends color into the face.
