What to do after I put on Foundation and Concealer?

Well first I cleanse, tone, and moisturize with SPF.


Then I apply my concealer.


Then I apply my Liquid Foundation.


Am i supposed to set it with a powder or something after that?


If I am supposed to, what kind is good that won't look cakey.What to do after I put on Foundation and Concealer?
The best kind of setting powder is Mac's Blot powder pressed or loose this sets the make up and will get rid of any oilWhat to do after I put on Foundation and Concealer?
try powder then concealer, when they did my makeup at Bare Escentuals, thats what they did and I have kinda been doing that since then. I use either Physicians Formula Mineral Loose Powder

You do not typically need liquid foundation because it makes everything cakey. You only need it if you are older, my mom likes to use it, and she is almost 48 but she looks young.
After foundation, you can brush on little TRANSLUCENT powder. It just sets the foundation in place. If you get a powder that is NOT translucent, you can usually tell you are wearing makeup, which sometimes includes looking cakey. Since you are not looking for high coverage, Cover Girl makes great translucent powders! I use these in the summer for a more natural look.
Try a loose translucent powder and LIGHTLY dust it all over. You may need to reapply every so many hours. If you use too much your face will look shiny, then cakey...especially if you sweat. If you don't have a problem with oily skin, then don't set it at all. If you become shiny throughout the day, blot your face with toilet paper, which soaks up oil. I hardly ever use anything to set my foundation or concealor but if I do, I use very light powder.
I hardly use liquid anymore, but if you need a powder for anything, you'll not beat smoky mountain minerals , it's good for your skin %26amp; your pocket book.





use a good brush, which you can buy at a local drug store or wal-mart, bare minerals is ok but you may have to glue it back together, as i did mine. Don't use their make-up tho, full of bismuth !
i would almost say you should apply the concealer, but then mix a little of the foundation into the moisturizer for like a tinted moisturizer. Then you don't really need a powder to set it. It looks more dewy and natural that way.
After those steps apply a light translucent powder- the best by far is Laura Mercier. The powedr will make it set and last all day. It will also prevent shine. Laura Mercier tyranslucant powder does not look cakey at all and will not clog your skin either.


Good luck
yes, set it with powder, but the good type would be the sheer powder, they got that in MAC, Laura Mercier, and every other brands. I see some people lightly dust baby powder on top and it looks great too!
Try Elizabeth Arden's Ceramide Setting Powder. I use it every day and it makes your skin look flawless!! It comes in different shades too! It has optical diffusers and wont settle down into your pores or lines. Give it a try!
I hope you're not a guy, but you use powder to set the makeup, choose oil free kind if your skin is oily and moisturizing kind if your skin is dry.
i have heard of a powder foundation.
i've never known guys to wear foundatation
