Applying the right base and other makeup

When applying makeup you have to use the correct products when applying it,as some do not work well with each other, such as when you are putting Kryolan Supracolor palette you dont want to put on top of Satin primer as supracolor is grease and will jsut come straight off.

Or even Aquacolor Palette as it is water based, will wipe off all that is underneath.

When putting Illamasqua or any matte primer, do not moisturise before hand as it is greasy and the primer is to do that anyway.

The best way to apply the skin base or any foundation is to work the foundation brush over the nose first and then over the forehead and then onto the cheeks, ears, neck, then eyes, as you start in the middle.

Then setting it with powder, which is Illamasqua setting powder and the way you can tell if it has cover the whole face and set it is by using the back of your hand to tell.

When getting the makeup out the palette use a wooden stirrer or scoop to get it and apply to the back of your hand.

Wiping out the palette with the alcohol brush cleaner is good to clean it, if you have used it with the brush straight from it, that way it isnt contaminated for when applying it to someone elses face.

 When doing this i applied it without moisturiser and used the satin primer and feels dry when i put the illamasqua skin base on top, but i didnt blend it in properly, which is why it doesnt look right. So when applied the colour makeup, which was my partners own, that was called Elf and was quite shimmery and very powdery, it cling to the skin quite alot in places, so looked patchy and more like a mask, so i have learnt not to do that again.
