1. Face Wash

A moisturizing face wash if you have dry skin or any other face wash which suits your skin type is best. Before starting your makeup make sure your face is clean and dirt-free.

2. Moisturizer

After washing your face, dry it with a soft towel and apply moisturizer. Let the moisturizer sit for a minute or two.

3. Primer

Now apply a good primer which hides your large pores and makes your makeup longlasting. Take a small amount and apply all over your face.

4. Foundation

Now dot the foundation all over your face and apply it with the help of a makeup sponge or a foundation brush.

5. BB Cream

If you don’t want to wear foundation, yet want something light on your face in place of it, a good baby cream is the best option.

To hide all your blemishes and dark circles, apply a good concealer. And it is a must in your makeup bag.
