The causes of makeup breakdown and the role of face powder
The main causes of makeup breakdown in midsummer
Increased sweat and sebum production
In summer, the secretion of sweat and sebum becomes more active. In particular, the T-zone and around the nose are areas where a lot of sebum is produced, making them prone to makeup coming off. When sweat and sebum spread over the surface of the skin, foundation can float or become smudged. This is one of the main reasons why makeup comes off in the middle of summer.
Makeup smudging due to high temperatures and humidity
Summer in Japan is hot and humid. High humidity makes the skin sticky and makes it difficult for makeup to adhere to the skin. Furthermore, when the skin becomes steamy due to humidity, foundation becomes slippery and easily creases. These environmental factors are the main factors that cause makeup to come off.
Tip : The three main factors that cause makeup to come off are sweat, sebum, and friction. It is important to create a makeup film that can counter these factors.
Why face powder helps prevent makeup from coming off
Absorbs sebum and sweat
Face powder has the ability to absorb sweat and sebum. Especially fine particles can firmly capture excess sebum on the surface of the skin. This keeps the skin dry and prevents makeup from coming off.
Fixes makeup in place and makes it last longer
Face powder helps to firmly fix foundation and concealer to the skin. This makes the makeup last much longer. When used to finish off liquid foundation, it creates a thin veil-like finish that helps make your makeup last longer.

Specific makeup techniques using face powder
How to use after skin care
Apply a light layer of powder before your makeup base
After you've finished your skincare routine, try lightly applying face powder before applying your makeup base. This simple step will smooth out your skin's surface, allowing the next cosmetic product you use to adhere better to your skin. This method is especially effective when using a liquid base or foundation. By applying a thin, even layer of powder, it will absorb excess sebum and create a base that will prevent your makeup from coming off.
Focused coverage on the T-zone, which is prone to oil production
The T-zone is an area where sebum is particularly likely to be produced. Applying face powder here will prevent greasiness and makeup from coming off due to sebum. Use a puff or brush to apply the powder, pressing lightly. Applying a small amount of powder around the eyes will increase the staying power of your eye makeup. This completes your base makeup that won't come off even in the middle of summer.
Using face powder before applying foundation
Improves adhesion of liquid foundation
If you apply face powder before using liquid foundation, the adhesion of the foundation will be much better. The surface of the skin will become smoother, and the foundation will spread evenly without any unevenness. This method is especially recommended in the summer when sweat and sebum are a concern.
Tips for applying thin, even layers
The key to applying powder thinly and evenly is to use a puff or brush. Take a small amount of powder on the puff and wipe off the excess on the back of your hand before applying it to your skin. If you use a brush, lightly rub it into your skin for a natural finish. The trick is to apply small amounts at a time to avoid a thick look.
Specific steps for using "Soft Matte Pressed Powder"
If you use Funny Elves Soft Matte Pressed Powder, try these steps:
Take an appropriate amount of powder onto the puff and apply it lightly to your T-zone and around your nose.
Use a brush to spread a thin layer on cheeks and jawline.
Finally, use the puff to apply the liquid foundation to small areas such as the eyes and mouth. This method ensures that the liquid foundation adheres firmly to the skin, creating a base makeup that won't easily come off.
How to use as a makeup finish
Finishing powder to set your makeup in place
Using face powder at the end of your makeup routine will help keep your makeup in place. In particular, applying powder after using liquid foundation or concealer will help your makeup last much longer. Lightly pressing the powder onto your face with a puff will give you a finish that looks like a thin veil over your skin.
Partial application to leave a glossy finish
If you want to keep the glow, we recommend using face powder on selected areas. For example, use less powder on areas you want to add shine to, such as your cheekbones and nose, and focus on areas that tend to get shiny, such as your T-zone and chin. This way, you can achieve both a natural glow and a makeup that won't easily come off.
Tips for choosing the right face powder for your skin type and purpose
When choosing a face powder, it is important to choose one that suits your skin type and purpose. Using a powder that suits your skin will dramatically improve the finish and durability of your makeup. Here we will introduce recommended ways to choose a powder based on your skin type and purpose.
How to choose according to skin type
Matte type for oily skin
For those with oily skin, we recommend a matte face powder that absorbs sebum well. This type of powder keeps excess sebum under control and keeps skin smooth while preventing shine. When used especially around the T-zone and nose, it is effective in preventing makeup from coming off. Choosing a powder with fine particles will give you a light finish while naturally covering pores.
Contains moisturizing ingredients for dry skin
For those with dry skin, face powders containing moisturizing ingredients are ideal. This type of powder helps to retain moisture in the skin while preventing dryness and chalkiness. If you want a glossy finish, choose a powder with a sheen. You can also maintain a natural finish by applying it lightly and thinly. By using a highly moisturizing powder, you can enjoy makeup comfortably even on dry skin.
How to choose according to purpose
Long-lasting type that prevents crumbling
If you want to prevent your makeup from coming off, we recommend a long-lasting face powder. This type is resistant to sweat and sebum, and has the power to keep your makeup on for a long time. It is especially useful in the summer and in humid environments. It adheres firmly to the skin and creates a base that does not easily come off, reducing the effort of touching up your makeup during the day.
Loose powder for a natural finish
For those who want a natural finish, loose powder is perfect. This type has fine particles and fits lightly on the skin. It gives a transparent finish without a thick feeling. It is especially recommended for everyday makeup or when you want to wear light makeup.

How to use face powder when touching up your makeup
Preparation before touching up makeup
Remove excess sebum with tissue or blotting paper.
Before you start touching up your makeup, first remove excess sebum. If sebum remains on your skin, the face powder will not adhere well to your skin and will be prone to uneven application. Use tissue or oil blotting paper to gently press the powder onto your T-zone and around your nose. This simple step will make the next step go more smoothly.
Tone your skin with a mist
After removing oils, use a mist to condition your skin. Spray the mist lightly all over your face and gently press it into your skin with your palms. This will refresh your skin and make it easier for face powder to apply evenly. This step is especially recommended for those who are concerned about dryness.
How to fix it using face powder
Gently smooth out any crumbled areas and then apply powder.
First, lightly smooth any areas where your makeup has come off with your fingers or a sponge. If your foundation has smudged, just tap it with your fingers to blend it in. After that, take a small amount of face powder and lightly apply it to the areas where your makeup has come off. Following this order will give you a more natural finish.
Use a small amount at a time to avoid applying too thick a layer.
When using face powder, it's important to apply small amounts at a time. If you put too much powder on at once, it can look thick and may evenly crumble. Use a puff or brush to spread it thinly and evenly. This will help you maintain a natural finish.
