Y.O.U Beauty Shares the Importance of a Good Makeup Base

Whether it’s to enhance your features or accentuate your natural beauty, the most important part of a good makeup look is a flawless base.

Whatever makeup look you decide to do — whether it’s a fresh look or a bold and playful one — the most important component is a good makeup base. Base makeup helps equalize the color of your skin and adds a certain radiance. It also helps to smoothen the skin and emphasize the colors and pigments of your eyeshadow, blush, and lipstick.

Y.O.U Beauty believes in the importance of having good and healthy skin as the base of a great makeup look. That’s why the brand continues to deliver skincare-infused cosmetic products that will deliver pigment while providing skin the nourishment it deserves. Here’s a simple guide to help you achieve a flawless makeup base.

Moisturizer

1. Prep Your Skin

It’s important to first prep your skin before applying your base makeup. This will keep your skin hydrated and moisturized for a supple and less patchy or cake-y look. So choose a moisturizer with ceramides that can help lock in moisture. Y.O.U Radiance Up! Deep Moisturizing Cream not only moisturizes your skin but also strengthens and supports the skin barrier thanks to Ceramide 1-3-6.

Color Corrector

2. Color Correct

If you have dark circles, acne marks, and dark spots, apply a color corrector before putting your foundation. Color correctors help neutralize and balance out skin discoloration that concealers and foundation may not completely cover. Y.O.U Cloud Touch Correcting Concealer Palette is a multi-functional creamy concealer that provides two corrective colors and two concealer shades that can correct and conceal blemishes. It has Ceramide and Centella Asiatica that help to hydrate and improve the skin barrier, too.

3. Apply Foundation

Finding the right shade for your skin tone can make all the difference. Swatch your foundation first on your jawline. If it blends on your skin, you’ve found your perfect match. If you are looking for a light to medium coverage foundation, Y.O.U Cloud Touch Blurring Skin Tint may work for you. It’s a lightweight skincare-infused blurring liquid foundation designed for acne prone skin. Moreover, it’s enriched with Ceramide and Centella Asiatica Extract that instantly delivers a soft-focused skin filter effect.

Concealer

4. Conceal

If you still have blemishes that are visible after applying foundation, a good concealer can help give your skin that flawless look. Apply Y.O.U NoutriWear+ Complete Cover Concealer on areas that need extra coverage like under the eyes and dark spots. It is formulated with advanced LitestayTM technology, Immortelle C-lock Essence, and Centella Asiatica to boost skin elasticity, hydrate, and calm skin.

Loose Powder

5. Set

Setting powder helps your makeup base to last all day. It can also help control excess oil, give your base extra coverage, and add radiance to your face. Y.O.U Noutriwear Airy Fit Loose Powder can help to prolong you makeup and control sebum for up to 24 hours. In addition, it has Centella Asiatica and Immortelle Flower Extract that helps boost collagen production and hydrates skin.

6. Lock

Setting spray can help your makeup to look on point. It also prolongs your makeup base and prevents it from sliding and creasing. Y.O.U NoutriWear+ Makeup Stay Lock Mist is a nourishing setting spray with a film-forming ingredient Filmexel®, Sodium Hyaluronate, and Immortelle C- lock Essence. So it effectively helps lock in makeup for up to 12 hours.

Good makeup starts with a flawless base!

Before using makeup, it’s more important that you take good care of your skin first. And good skin starts with a proper skincare routine.
