What is the best way to make my makeup look better

What liquid foundation that you swear by or a routine? I am lookin for a less texture. It seems all the foundations I have, always show so much texture in my skin. I do know that it is natural, but would like more of an untextured look.

Thanks in advance I do really appreciate any comments towards a way to make myself feel better and look better and be more confident. Also do you use moisturizers and or wells. I have tried both and also have not found one that helps with this issue. I am open to try any type of hydration to help.

... Read moreFinding the perfect foundation is essential for achieving a smooth, untextured makeup look. Consider looking for liquid foundations that are specifically designed to minimize skin texture while providing good coverage. Products labeled as 'hydrating' or 'luminous' may be ideal for your needs, as they help create that desirable glow. In addition to foundation, the role of moisturizers and primers cannot be overlooked. A lightweight, hydrating moisturizer can help prep your skin for makeup, creating a smoother canvas. Be sure to choose products that are non-comedogenic, ensuring they won't clog your pores or exacerbate texture issues. It’s also beneficial to apply a facial primer that fills in fine lines and texture before applying foundation. For oily skin types, mattifying primers can reduce shine and provide a lasting foundation base. Consider incorporating hydration into your routine through serums and facial mists as well. Look for ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin, which are excellent for boosting moisture levels without adding heaviness to the skin. Lastly, always remember that skin texture is a natural part of beauty. Don’t hesitate to experiment with different products and techniques until you find what works best for you to feel confident and beautiful.

Using a good moisturizer, even if you have oily skin. You can always add powder to eliminate shine and use a hydrating setting spray!

I had this same problem omg. first of all yea a good moisturizer, I started using a water cream based one. but the most important part is the actual makeup 😭. try to find one that specifically says hydrating, AND ALWAYS AVOID MATTE TYPES PLEASE. this is the concealer I've been using that works rlly well!
