Q&A: Answering all questions about make up

Is there adaptable make-up?

The innovation in make-up that adapts comes from Max Factor with the Max Factor Colour Adapt Liquid Make Up. It is a magical make-up that has already won the hearts of consumers, as it can magically adapt to the skin and make it appear more radiant and healthy.

Max Factor Colour Adapt Liquid Make Up 40 Creamy Ivory 34ml

Liquid make up by Max Factor with a lightweight watery texture, which is easy to use and provides medium to high coverage, offering a fresh and lightweight result. It is suitable for all skin types, even for oily or dry skin. With a water-based formula, it is ideal for oily or acne-prone skin and gives the face a uniform matte appearance, controlling sebum and allowing the pores to breathe.

Users who have purchased it mainly distinguish it because it spreads easily.

Finally, which make up should I get?

Choose to get a make up that matches your skin tone and needs. Not all make up is suitable for all skin types. The shade you choose should be ideal for your skin color so that it blends in. More specifically:

Skin Type

Choose a make up according to your skin type. If you have oily skin, get a make up that can balance the oiliness. For dry skin, prefer one that will moisturize it and not break it. For combination skin, get one that provides high coverage or one that adjusts.

Undertone

An easy way to discover your undertone is by observing your veins. If your veins appear purple or blue, then you belong to the cool undertone category and the make up you choose should have the letter C (Cold) before the number. If your veins look greenish-blue, then you belong to the neutral undertone and you should look for the letter N (Neutral) in the make up number. The warm undertone is written with the letter W (Warm) and stands out from the green veins.

Skin Conditions

If you suffer from skin conditions, it is better to consult your dermatologist before choosing any make up. They will likely recommend a hypoallergenic one, but regardless, talk to them first.

Extra tip

Prefer a slightly lighter shade of make up if you plan to do contouring or apply bronzer, so that your face does not appear much darker compared to your neck.

How do I apply make up?

There are three ways to apply make up. You can apply it with a brush, with a make up sponge, or with your fingers. All three methods are acceptable and essentially depend on what works best for each person. Brushes and make up sponges tend to be more effective and achieve greater coverage compared to fingers.

Application with a brush

We start with the outline of the nose and under the eyes. You will need a special brush for this job, such as the Radiant Synthetic Hair Blush Make Up Brush, to apply the make up.

Next, it's time for the rest of the face. For the rest of the face, you will need a foundation brush, which can achieve great coverage quickly, such as the Real Techniques Mini Expert Face Synthetic Hair Foundation Make Up Brush.

Most make up brush sets include both brushes.

Application with a sponge

With makeup sponges, you achieve your goal faster and more effectively. They cover all areas of the face very well and uniformly. The makeup is applied in the same way as with a brush. Try to make gentle movements to make sure you have covered every part of your face. Finally, make sure to blend towards the neck to avoid a strong contrast.

I recommend the Professional Makeup Sponge for Miracle Complexion Foundation, by Real Techniques, with the best reviews on Skroutz.

Real Techniques Professional Synthetic Make Up Sponge for Foundation Miracle Complexion

Flexible sponge with foam technology to blend makeup for a flawless finish. Use it wet for a dewy glow or dry for full coverage.

  • Round edges: Mark large areas of the face with one stroke.
  • Precision tip: Covers blemishes and imperfections.
  • Flat edge: Ideal for liquid foundation and outlining around the eyes and nose.

Users who have purchased it mainly appreciate it because it evenly applies the product and it is worth the money.

Finger Application

The finger application can hide traps if not done correctly and meticulously. It is very likely to leave gaps and not achieve a uniform coverage. Additionally, it is very likely to leave makeup on your fingers and accidentally stain your clothes. I recommend using this method only in case of necessity.

Why doesn't the makeup spread evenly?

There are 4 reasons why the makeup doesn't spread evenly.

  • Your skin is not clean and moisturized.

  • The brushes or sponge you use are not clean.

  • You apply it with your fingers, so it doesn't cover properly.

  • You don't follow the manufacturer's instructions and the product is damaged.

Is there makeup that doesn't stain?

When we talk about makeup that doesn't stain, we usually mean makeup that is applied to the body area. This includes special makeup such as Stay-matte Liquid Make Up by Clinique which is waterproof and doesn't stain clothes.

Clinique Stay-matte Liquid Make Up 15 Beige 30ml

Liquid make up by Clinique with a lightweight, watery texture that is easy to use and provides medium to high coverage, offering a fresh and lightweight result. It is suitable for all skin types, including oily or dry skin. With a water-based formula, it is ideal for oily or acne-prone skin and gives the face a uniform matte appearance, controlling oil and allowing pores to breathe.

  • Type: Liquid Make Up
  • Oil-Free

How to remove makeup from clothes?

The best way to remove makeup from clothes is with shaving foam. Yes, you read that right, makeup can be removed from clothes with simple shaving foam. Just apply a little foam to the stain area and leave it for 10 minutes, then put the garment in the washing machine and wash it normally.

If the stain persists, try cleaning it with rubbing alcohol or a drop of dish soap.
