Basic knowledge of foundation

It is important to have some basic knowledge when choosing a foundation. Understanding the types and features will make it easier to find the right product for you. In this section, we will explain in detail the types of foundation, the criteria for choosing one, and the features of "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation".

Types and features of foundation

There are many different types of foundation. By knowing the characteristics of each, you can choose the one that is best suited to your skin.

Features and benefits of liquid foundation

Liquid foundations are characterized by their liquid form and good spreadability. They adhere well to the skin and have high coverage, making them suitable for those who want to hide blemishes and dullness. Many also contain moisturizing ingredients, making them recommended for those with dry skin. By applying a thin, even layer, you can achieve a natural finish.

Features and benefits of powder foundation

Powder foundation is ideal for those who want a light finish. It is suitable for those with oily skin because it has the effect of absorbing sebum. It is convenient to carry and easy to use for touching up your makeup. It is recommended for those who prefer a natural makeup look.

Features and benefits of cushion foundation

Cushion foundation is a type of liquid foundation soaked into a sponge. It is easy to use and has a glossy finish. Even beginners can easily apply it evenly, which is useful for time-saving makeup. Many products, such as "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation," have moisturizing and sebum control effects, and are suitable for a wide range of skin types.

Criteria for choosing a foundation

When choosing a foundation, there are several criteria to consider. Understanding these will help you make the right choice.

Differences in coverage

Coverage refers to how well a product hides your skin's imperfections. If you want to hide blemishes or acne scars, choose a product with high coverage. On the other hand, if you want a natural finish, choose a lighter coverage product.

The difference in durability

Lasting power refers to how long your makeup lasts without coming off. A foundation with long lasting power is especially useful when you are going out for a long time or in an environment where you are likely to sweat. Products that last for 12 hours, such as the "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation," are reassuring.

Differences in usability

The texture of the foundation affects how it feels on the skin and the finish it gives. If you prefer a lighter texture, a powder foundation is the way to go. If you want a more moist feel, a liquid or cushion type foundation is the way to go.

How to choose the right foundation for your skin type and skin tone

When choosing a foundation, it is important to know how to choose according to your skin type and skin tone. Choosing a product that suits your skin will dramatically improve the finish of your makeup. In this section, we will explain in detail how to choose a foundation according to your skin type, the key points to choosing a color that suits your skin tone, and other points to pay attention to.

How to choose according to skin type

Choosing the right foundation for your skin type can make a big difference in how your makeup lasts and how it looks. Please refer to the following points.

Best foundation for dry skin

For those with dry skin, foundations rich in moisturizing ingredients are ideal. Liquid and cushion foundations provide a moist finish. The Long-Wear Air Cushion Foundation in particular provides 12 hours of moisturizing effect and prevents flaking and cracking caused by dryness. It moisturizes the skin while giving it a natural glow.

Best foundation for oily skin

For those with oily skin, we recommend a foundation with sebum control effects. By choosing a powder foundation or a product that contains sebum-absorbing ingredients, you can achieve a matte finish with less shine. The "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation" for oily skin contains triple oil-absorbing powder, which provides long-lasting sebum control.

Best foundation for combination skin

Those with combination skin need a foundation that can deal with both dry and oily areas. Cushion foundations have a good balance of moisturizing and sebum control, making them ideal for combination skin. "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation" has the ability to moisturize dry areas while controlling shine.

Tips for choosing the right colour for your skin tone

By choosing a foundation that matches your skin tone, you can avoid discoloration between your face and neck and achieve a natural finish.

The difference between yellow base and blue base

Skin tones are broadly divided into two types: yellow-based and blue-based. For those with yellow-based skin, foundations with yellowish tones blend in easily. On the other hand, for those with blue-based skin, pink or bright-colored foundations are more suitable. "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation" comes in four colors and can be used with either skin tone.

Tips for choosing colors using testers

When choosing a foundation, use a tester. It is important to choose a foundation that matches not only the color of your face but also the color of your neck. Checking the foundation under natural light will allow you to judge the color more accurately. Choosing a color that is one tone lighter than your skin tone will give you a translucent finish.

Things to consider when choosing a foundation

When choosing a foundation, it is important to consider the season, environment, and lighting conditions.

How to choose according to the season and environment

The condition of your skin changes depending on the season. In winter, your skin is prone to dryness, so choose a foundation with a high moisturizing effect. In summer, you are concerned about sweat and sebum, so a product that lasts and has sebum control effects is appropriate. "Longwear Air Cushion Foundation" is designed to be used comfortably regardless of the season.

The importance of checking in natural light

The color of foundation may look different in indoor lighting and natural light. Checking the color in natural light before purchasing can help you avoid mistakes. Beginners, especially, should not forget this step.

Tip : Choosing the right foundation for your skin type and skin tone can make all the difference in the way your makeup looks. The Longwear Air Cushion Foundation is a great choice for a wide range of skin types and tones.

Tips to avoid failure

In order to avoid mistakes when choosing and using foundation, it is important to keep a few points in mind. Here, we will explain specific tips on choosing the color, how to apply it, and how to use tools.

Tips for choosing the right color

Choosing the right foundation color is an important step that affects the final result of your makeup. By choosing the right color, you can create a natural and beautiful skin look.

How to check the color difference with the neck

If your face and neck are different colors, it will look unnatural. Try the following tips when choosing colors:

• Test the foundation at the edge of your neck and face . Apply a small amount of foundation to the edge of your neck and face to see if it blends in with your skin. By choosing a color that blends in with your neck as well as your face, you can achieve a natural finish.

• Compare multiple colors <br> Try on multiple colors at once and choose the one that blends in best with your skin tone. In particular, standard ochre colors tend to suit most skin tones.

The importance of checking in natural light

Indoor lighting can make the color of your foundation look different than it actually is, so checking the color in natural light can help you avoid mistakes.

• Check by a window When using the tester, check the color in a location with natural light, such as by a window. This will allow you to accurately judge how it blends with your skin.

• Double-check when you're out <br>Even after you've purchased the item, we recommend that you double-check it when you're out and about in natural light. If the color doesn't match, it's a good idea to buy it from a store that allows exchanges.

Tip : Choose your colour carefully, make sure it matches your neckline and check it in natural light.

Tips for applying the paint without making mistakes

The way you apply foundation can make a big difference in how beautiful your final look will be. Here are some tips for applying foundation evenly and without streaks.

Check compatibility with the base

The primer you use before applying foundation will have a big impact on the finish. Checking the compatibility of the primer and foundation will help prevent uneven application and crumbling.

The tools you use to apply your foundation also affect the final result, so it's important to choose the right tools and keep them clean.

Use of sponges and brushes

The texture of the finished product will change depending on the tool you choose. Understand the characteristics of each tool and use them appropriately.

• Sponges <br>Sponges are great for applying makeup evenly. In particular, using a special sponge for cushion foundation will help you apply it evenly.

• Brush <br>The brush is recommended for those who want a light finish. When using powder foundation, lightly apply it with a brush to achieve a natural glow.

How to keep your tools clean

• Clean regularly <br> Wash your sponges and brushes about once a week. Use a mild detergent and rinse and dry thoroughly to keep them clean.
