3. Use a beauty blender. For foundation application, use a foundation brush to get an even coverage, followed by a beauty blender to pat it in to give that soft, diffused finish, shared Lee.
4. Tap, don’t spread. Invest in a small finger puff to tap your makeup in. “Tapping is better to let the colour set into the skin rather than fingers as fingers can wipe off the colour,” explained Lim.
5. Dot, dot, dot. For concealer, Lim recommended using a fine tip makeup brush to lightly dot it onto the areas needed and then patting it in with the brush to prevent it from looking cakey. Don’t forget to add a light layer of loose powder to give it that soft-focus finish.
6. Buff it out. Want definition but yet still have that soft-focus finish for your lips? Line the lips with your favourite lip liner, then buff over your natural lip line with your ring finger. This not only gives a blurred effect, but also makes lips look fuller and plumped.
7. Beware of pilling. Blurring makeup products often tend to have silicone in its formulations. If you can’t avoid silicone, then Lee advised using less instead of more during product application. And if your makeup does pill, don’t try to brush it out, instead pat it down to reduce further pilling.
