By Tom Perry

Everyone has seen women who apply cosmetic foundation in an incorrect manner, it gives them a heavily made-up look, they have foundation lines, and instead of looking beautiful, it's obvious that they have tried to apply makeup in the incorrect manner.

This all begins with the choosing of foundation. If you don't get the exact match for your skin, no matter how little you apply, your face is going to look different from the rest of you. This is why it's important that if you are not familiar with color schemes, that you seek out professional help for your cosmetic foundation.

There are many different types and brands, so talk to several different professionals before you choose your facial foundation.

Once you have found the foundation that actually matches your own skin tones, then it's time to start learning how to apply it. First of all, start with clean fresh skin, if you don't, you might wind up with oily shine, granules, and of course, bacteria caught in your pores that will cause acne.

When applying makeup of any type, don't get in a hurry, you need fresh clean skin, and possibly acne medication underneath the foundation

you'll then start dabbing a small amount of foundation, remember, you can always add more later. Dab a bit on your cheeks, your forehead, and on your chin. You'll need to spread your foundation rather quickly, it normally will dry to a matte or somewhat powdery finish, and it doesn't take long for this to happen. So spread quickly so it gets uniformly spread all over your face.

Spreading outwards the most important aspect of correct foundation application. In other words you will spread from your nose outwards, your forehead up, and your chin down past your throat.

Everyone has the it at one time or another, foundation lines between a woman's foundation and her actual skin on. Often, this is because they are applying their foundation in a room without natural lighting, set up your makeup application area with as natural of lighting as possible. This will help you avoid typical errors.

Remember that spreading the foundation into your throat, neck and hairline will help keep a solid line from forming. Make sure that you don't have visible foundation in your hairline, and that the line slowly but surely disappears.

Your skin can look beautiful with the correct foundation for your type of skin and your skin tone. Then make sure you apply it correctly in as natural lighting as possible so it evens out skin tones and leaves you with a fresh appearance.
