Instructions

• STEP 1: Make sure your foundation, if you wear any, disappears as you blend it
into your skin. Powder can either complement the perfect foundation color or
serve to neutralize any slight color imbalance.
• STEP 2: Head to a department store counter and talk to a veteran beauty
consultant. Bring your foundation along, or go with freshly applied foundation so
you can test powder colors over your everyday makeup.
• STEP 3: Start with colors that match your skin tone. You may be inundated with
pink, yellow, green and purple shades all designed to make your skin look its best.
Stick to what you feel comfortable with and what you can see makes your skin
look good.
• STEP 4: Check the colors you test in good lighting, or step outside to consider
your options in natural light. You're looking for a color that blends with your skin,
rather than sitting on top of it.
• STEP 5: Remember that translucent powder still has color in it. Some may advise
that this is the most natural option, but it may render you pale or pasty.

Tips & Warnings

• Loose powder sets your makeup in the morning; pressed powder is for daily
touchups. Pressed powder may seem darker because it's packed more densely.
Test all colors before buying.
• Bring a trusted companion along for an honest second opinion.
