Prep skin well before makeup for a smooth, flawless base. Exfoliate and moisturize to prevent clinging to dry patches. Use a primer if needed for your skin type – mattifying for oily skin or hydrating for dry skin. This smooths texture and prolongs wear. For foundation, use the brand’s specialized brushes like the Heavenly Face Brush to lightly buff and blend over skin. Avoid rubbing or over-brushing. When setting liquid foundation with mineral powder, use a large, fluffy brush to tap and press into skin instead of sweeping heavily. Apply mineral powders like blush, bronzer and highlighters with a soft brush. Remove excess first and build coverage gradually. Set makeup with a hydrating setting spray for dry skin or oil-absorbing powder for oily skin types. Avoid applying too many layers of powder products if you have textured or mature skin. Stick to light applications.
