How to touch up the dull base makeup

Jan 02,2025

The base makeup has darkened, and the following steps can be followed for touch up:

1. Oil absorption and cleaning: Use oil absorbing paper or soft tissue to gently press the face, especially the T-zone and other oil prone areas, to remove excess oil and surface dullness. If possible, you can use gentle cleansing products or toner to gently wipe dark areas, but be careful not to damage the overall makeup look.

2. Local make-up: For areas with serious dullness, such as both sides of the nose, corners of the mouth, etc., concealer pen or concealer can be used for local coverage, which is similar to or slightly lighter than the skin color. Use a sponge or finger pulp to gently tap the concealer product to make it naturally blend with the surrounding skin color. If the whole foundation looks dull, you can consider using air cushion BB or light liquid foundation for overall makeup, and pay attention to a small amount of multiple overlays to avoid excessive makeup.

3. Setting and brightening: use setting powder or setting spray to set makeup to reduce grease secretion and makeup shedding. For oily skin, it is recommended to choose a setting product with good oil control effect. To enhance skin tone brightness, you can use a brightening pre makeup lotion or highlight product before or after setting, gently sweeping it over the central area of the face to increase facial depth.

By following the above steps, the problem of dull base makeup can be effectively improved, making the makeup look more long-lasting and bright. At the same time, it is also important to maintain good skin condition and radiate natural radiance from the inside out.
