Keeping your skin looking bright, youthful and radiant is constant work. Even with the best rotation of skincare products, there are days when your face needs an extra pick-me-up. This is where makeup comes in. You can give your skin the boost it needs using one simple foundation trick for a natural rejuvenated look.
Sébastien Tardif, celebrity makeup artist and co-founder of Veil Cosmetics, shared his secret on using foundation to look decades younger. And it’s much more simple than you might think!

“My ultimate trick involves pre-mixing 3 makeup staples in my kit: an über lightweight oil free foundation that does not crease or streak into fine lines, I mix it with a primer serum to help add more plumping and smoothing effect and I add a dash of face highlighter to add that lit from within glow,” Tardif explained to SheFinds.
Tardif recommends using the Veil Cosmetics Sunset Skin Foundation, Veil Cosmetics Sunset Light and Gleam Body And Face Radiance by Melanie Mills Hollywood for your foundation blend.
He continued, “Once all mixed together you get a nice buildable texture that does not require powder to be set, the glow is within the skin not on the surface which ages and emphasizes fine lines, while the smoothing effect helps smooth skin texture like pores or fine lines. I have been doing that for years and my clients can’t get enough of it.”
Every makeup bag needs a reliable foundation. The key to make your foundation blend seamlessly into your skin is to pick the right one for your skin type.
When you shop for foundation, pick one that not only matches your skin tone, but also blends into your skin without showing creases. Hydrating foundations are typically best for this.
Foundation should always be the first step in your makeup routine. It doesn’t just help conceal flaws in your skin - it can also help the rest of your makeup set in properly.
If you’re using a concealer to hide under-eye bags, this step should come second. But with the right foundation skills, you may not even need an extra concealer.
