Separate the egg whites from a couple eggs and place them in a bowl. Add 2 tablespoons of yogurt (do not use flavored yogurt!). Mix them up and apply to face. Leave on face for a few minutes then rinse face in warm water, followed by a warm washcloth. The mask works wonders for the skin

HOW TO:APPLY FOUNDATION





1.Begin with clean hands and a clean face.The face must have been Cleansed,exfoliated and Toned (depending on the skin type)

2.Apply a moisturizer(even on an oily skin), primer, oil matifier (optional) that’s perfect for your skin type.Foundations will go on more smoothly if the skin is well-hydrated.


3.Let the moisturizing sunscreen, primer, oil matifier (optional) set for a few minutes.

4.Wipe off any excess moisturizer with a tissue. Greasy skin will make the foundation slip and slide.

5.Using a makeup sponge or a foundation brush apply dots of foundation on your cheeks, chin, forehead and tip of the nose. Makeup artists swear by foundation brushes to apply product. They soak up less foundation and blend flawlessly.

6.Using the sponge, or the foundation brush, blend the dots together in an outward stroke to the hair-line. Pay special attention to your hairline and jawline to ensure there’s no obvious line.

7.Conceal your dark, under-eye circles, spots, blemishes with a concealer or  foundation. Pat, never rub, the concealer into skin.

8.Set the foundation with face powder immediately after application.
