OK i normally wear a little make up to school but...?

Question

everytime i wear powder and foundation this ***** on the bus says 'r u wearing powder cause u can soo c it' i ask my friend and she says it ok. what should i do to make it look unnoticable

Answer 1

I would scrap wearing foundation for school as it can really age your skin. Just use some nice skin products instead.
However if you want to carry on i would recommend using dream matte mousse as it lasts all day and looks really natural.

Answer 2

Ok. You put on the powder. Dont put to much on though. To much powder isnt good. And then put on a little blush, only on the cheek bones to make it look more natural. Cause with just plain foundation and powder it looks fake, cause everyone has a little natural blush in their cheeks. And if thats all you put, you should start wearing eye makeup to, cause then they focus more on your eyes then on your face. And then your lips look bear so put on just a bit of gloss. So basically All I'm saying is wear more makeup.

Answer 3

This is why:
EITHER 1)when u buy cheap foundation or bad ones atleast, u can notice that its bad from far away.. but ppl up close cant see it.
OR 2) Ur forehead is a different shade then ure bottom half of ure face so it looks fake

Go to a makeup counter and get it done cuz those ppl noe exactly what they are doing, they can also determine if ure forehead is a different shad then ur bottom half.

If u dont want to, try the maybelline Pure. line which is 50% water which wont clog ur pores and looks really natural. and get the two closest shades by using their shade finder or their sample kit. if u buy the products KEEP THE RECEIPT, cuz if they dont work you can return them.

Remember to do ur makeup in natural light.

Answer 4

powder is usually more noticeable than when you wear liquid, try usinga liquid to powder foundation or if u still want to use the powder beacause you like the coverage it gives you, put it on and then swipe a cotton ball all of over your face to wipe away any excess. and don't pay any attention to that *****, your skin probably looks so nice and flawless and she's just jealous about that. good luck!!!

Answer 5

Go to MAC or Sephora and have them fit your powder or foundation to your skin complexion so that it's not noticeable. If you don't have those two beauty chains in your area just wear the sheer powder or foundation. IF you have to buy it in the drugstore try several different shades on your jawline in direct sunlight. You could try the dept. stores especially Clinque they are very good at stuff like that.

Answer 6

maybe you dont have a good brand of foundation. or you might be getting it in your eyebrows and hairline. or it might not be the right shade. you could try smoothing it down your neck a little to make it the same colour. make sure you dont have a foundation line. are you putting bronzer or blush over your foundation and powder? because if your not this might be how she can tell, because your face would be all one colour otherwise.hope any of this helps

Answer 7

Usually you only need to wear one or the other. Generally if you have oily skin use powder, and if you have dry skin use foundation. Also, when you apply them, blend really well. It works best when you apply it in sunlight.

Answer 8

Use only one or the other. You should try the new mousse foundation, I love it. Use a wedge to apply it, and just make sure that you have it rubbed in well. Esp. on the sides of your face and under your chin. Good luck.

Answer 9

i used to wear both powder and foundation,but i think it looks more natural to just wear foundation.

Answer 10

don't waste your time with powder. A little foundation to cover any blemishes, and a little bronzer if you want (apply with a big brush, for even, natural coverage.)
