Hello everyone! Originally for my first Makeup Monday i was gonna do my daily makeup routine however,i didn't because i am still awaiting a few products that i think will work their way into my daily makeup so i figured i would just hold off.
So now back to what this post is about, a DIY tinted moisturizer I know i know this is pretty self explanatory but i thought i would post this anyways since i do use this daily and its adaptable to how much coverage you want or if you want it matte or with an illuminator. Also another plus its super inexpensive! Ok lets get started...
What You Need
~ A full coverage foundation (i used Revlon Colorstay for oily/combination skin shade 180 sand beige)
~ your'e favorite moisturizer (Cetaphils for all skin types)
~a teaspoon measurement (You could approximate!)
~A small jar of some sort (mines a emptied out Lush lip scrub container)
Directions
first: clean jar of any residue
Second: Pour in the amount of foundation you desire (i put in 3 teaspoons)
1-2 tsp: sheer/light coverage. will even out skin tone but not blur imperfections
3-4 tsp: Medium coverage. Will conceal blemishes,cancel out any redness and last longer
third: Add desired amount of moisturizer ( i used 2 teaspoons, but add less/more again depending on the amount of coverage your'e looking for.
Fourth: Now you can
add an extra such as an illuminator ( i can suggest
L'Oreal True Match Lumi Foundation). Mix it all together using whatever works (q-tip, bobby pin, end of makeup brush, pencil, etc.)
Fifth: try it out! You can apply it with your hands or use a brush but i prefer clean hands
Sixth: at this step its up to you want you want to do. You could add more moisturizer to make it less coverage, add more foundation to give it fuller coverage, or add some more illuminator to make it glowier?
For me this was perfect and i didn't need to add anything else! as you can see my right cheek's skin tone is more even and my scars are blurred, my left cheek was left bare. Top this with some concealer and powder and you've got a full-medium coverage look that feels like your natural skin!
Hope this helped some of you guys! Look forward to a Thinking Tuesday tomorrow on one of my HG products! xoxo-Kaya
