The way you do your makeup can completely change your appearance. Anything is possible with the right beauty products and a few insider tips. Makeup is a magical thing like that!

Arguably the hardest part of makeup to master is your foundation. Achieving impeccable foundation application, especially on mature skin, can prove to be a little challenging. We’re all wondering what the secret is to a flawless foundation base, and fine line and pore-free skin all day long.

Megan Luman, celebrity makeup artist and Mehron Senior Editor, told us a unique trick she uses on her clients for smooth foundation application that transforms them to look practically 10 years younger. It will help take years off your face instantly!

“One technique is to highlight and contour with 2-3 shades lighter and darker first,” said Luman. “It’s okay to create harder lines because the next step is to use a foundation color that matches the skin and buff it in a circular motion.”

Next, it’s all about getting your hands on the right brush. “By using a dual fiber brush (usually black and white bristles), blends everything together making the highlights and contours look like they are actually coming from the bone structure of the face, not the makeup,” she said.

Then, setting powder is a must, no matter what age you are. “This technique gives a youthful appearance because it doesn’t look like they have a lot of makeup on.”

With these simple tips for flawless foundation application, your skin will be looking more youthful and even in no time!
