Advice
- In the first method (that of the foundation), the final product will be slightly lighter than the foundation alone, so opt for a slightly darker foundation. Beige foundation go well with ivory skins; olive foundation are suitable for more tanned complexions; while for darker complexions use a foundation that matches your skin tone. You can always test colors you already have at home.
- It is advisable to store cosmetics in dry places away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Preservative-free makeups should be used within a week and within a month when stored in the refrigerator. Natural preservatives, such as jojoba oil, can be added in small quantities but be aware that they could compromise the quality of the make-up.
