Creating Radiant Skin

Radiant skin is the key to beauty. When skin appears
flawless, everything else sparkles. Even if your
complexion has issues, you can still achieve a luminous
the right places.

Dry Skin

1.   For dry skin, use a liquid or cream foundation;
tints or powders create drier-looking skin. For sheerer
coverage, dip your sponge in a little moisturizer first.
Blend well, including over the eyelids, into the hairline
and a little down the neck. Then use a pink-toned
concealer under the eyes and a foundation-shade
concealer on trouble spots.

2. Next, apply a liquid or cream shimmer in a
highlighting shade like pale pink, bronze or pale gold
on top of the cheekbones. With more mature skin, be
sure to avoid putting shimmer near lines around the
eyes. If you choose a bronzer shade, try a little on the
temples, forehead and chin for a sun-kissed look. Stay
away from shimmer powders.

3. Dust a sheer translucent powder only on the t-zone.
This will leave your cheeks looking dewy fresh. You
can dust a little powder under the lower eyelid using
an eye shadow brush; too much powder under the eye
area looks cakey. A light touch will just prevent eye
makeup from running.

Oily Skin

1.   If your complexion is oily, use an oil-free
foundation or tint. Apply sparingly to face and follow
with a translucent powder. (Colored powders will
streak on oily skin.) If you want to create a natural
glow, don't powder the tops of the cheekbones. Stay
away from cream to powder foundations as they tend
to smudge and discolor during the day when mixed
with your skin’s natural oils.
2. If you want to apply a powder shimmer after your
foundation, sweep a light dusting on top of your
cheekbone with a fan brush. Skip the shiny nose,
forehead and chin areas.
3. Finish by applying translucent powder with a puff
all over the face. Carry blotting papers with you for
touch ups throughout the day.


Combination or Problem Skin

1.   For combination or problem skin, stick with the
liquid foundations with a silicone base. These look
great and stay put all day. For blemishes, I like to spot
conceal rather than cover the entire face with
suffocating foundation. For spot concealing use a
small-tipped concealer brush and dip it into a bit of
foundation mixed with a little oil-free concealer. Dab
on the spot and lightly blend with the brush.

2. For combination skin, find the shimmer formula that
works best for you and apply to tops of cheekbones. If
you have problem skin, use the powder version only on
unblemished areas. Shimmer highlights; so avoid
putting a light-catching spotlight on pimples.

3. Use a light translucent powder. Heavy powders are
passé. Let your skin glow and breathe. For a quick oil-
free fix, use blotting papers. They work better than
powder on problem skin because they remove the oil
without smothering the skin.
