The right foundation is key to your overall look. If your foundation is the wrong shade or looks blotchy, it can drastically change your image. To find a foundation that looks natural, you’ll want to check out these four tips.
Test Foundation On Your Jaw Line And Neck
Many women rub a little foundation on their hand or arm to test the color, but this isn’t the best way to find the right shade. The best place to test the foundation is on your jawline and neck. Necks tend to be a lighter shade than our face and chest so find a color that blends both well, or make sure to apply some foundation to the neck too.
Check Your Look In Natural Light
You should have natural light while testing out new makeup. Just take a mirror over to a window to get a glimpse of the new look.
Different Season, Different Foundation
One shade doesn’t always fit all. As you get more sun in the summer and less in the winter your base color may change. Be sure to check to make sure your color is right for you through the different seasons.

When it comes to finding the perfect foundation, department store makeup falls short. It’s not easy for an untrained retail clerk to match your skin tone under the florescent lights of big box stores. Instead, call and make an appointment for a makeup consult. You’ll get the best quality makeup and application tips.
