The tricky season switch is when most people struggle with base makeup. Lately, I’ve been getting tons of “Your skin looks great” comments — all thanks to a base that doesn’t break down. If you want a clean, long-lasting base, keep reading.
Start with rock-solid skincare
1. Keep skincare minimal. Too many layers can make your base separate. Stick to your usual toner plus a lightweight serum, or a thin-textured lotion — that’s it.
2. Give your skincare time to absorb. Take a breath and let your base layers fully settle before makeup.
3. A pre-makeup must-have: Banila Co Dew Boost Makeup Serum. It smooths skin texture so your base products grip better.
Then add an upgraded cushion
1. Start with today’s hottest pick: Banila Co Covericious Ultimate White Cushion. Its formula and shades have been upgraded for a more natural tone.
2. Go in thin at first. Tap a little on the puff and apply a sheer layer to blur pores. Lightly bounce over the edges to nail a seamless finish.
3. Around the sides of the nose and visible pores, use the tiniest amount — super thin. If this area gets heavy, your base can lift.
With these steps, your base won’t cake or separate, even in spring. Ready to try it?
