How to fix loose powder in makeup?

What should I do if powder appears to float after makeup? Floating powder means that the powder sticks to your face. It may be because your skin is dry or the powder is too coarse. What can you do?

It is quite annoying when powder floats while applying makeup. If powder floats, your whole face will look uneven and it is easy for powder to fall off. What can you do? How to deal with floating powder? Let’s take a look at the solution:

What to do if makeup powder floats

Step 1: Mix primer and liquid foundation

The general steps for base makeup are to apply a primer first, which can isolate, conceal and modify skin tone, and then apply liquid foundation. Mixing the primer and foundation can reduce the thickness of the foundation and make the makeup more transparent and lasting. Moreover, isolation cream can enhance the adhesion of foundation, greatly reduce the floating powder phenomenon, and improve the lasting effect of foundation. Pour it on the back of your hand and use your body temperature to mix the two more evenly!

Step 2: Tips for oily T-zone

The T-zone area between the forehead and the bridge of the nose is where the oil secretion is most active on the face, so foundation products are needed to brighten the contours of this area! The T-zone foundation cannot be applied by smearing. You need to lightly apply a little foundation product with your fingertips, and then evenly tap three points on the forehead. Use the same method to tap three more points from the center of the eyebrows to the tip of the nose, and finally pat it evenly with your fingertips to spread it open.

Step 3: Don’t ignore concealer

Use your fingertips to lightly apply concealer to darker areas such as around the eyes and corners of the mouth. Dark circles and dullness can be covered up with a concealer that is close to your skin tone. If the dark circles are severe, you need to use an orange-colored concealer to cover them. Otherwise, there will still be some gray color left under the eye bags after covering them up.

Step 4: Choose a fine and elastic sponge

Choose a sponge with fine, uniform pores and elasticity. This will allow the foundation to be evenly distributed and help absorb excess floating powder on the face, making the base makeup fit better. If the foundation was applied too thickly or unevenly in some areas, you can also wet the sponge with toner or mineral spray and then press it to make the base makeup more natural and fit better.

Step 5: Set with pearlescent loose powder

Use a foundation brush to pick up a small amount of loose powder with pearlescent sheen, and brush it on the T-zone and cheeks, using highlights to create a three-dimensional contour! Then use the brush to apply loose powder with strong sebum absorption ability along the direction of the pores while moving in circles, and then gently pat it with your palms to make it fit better with the skin.

After mastering these methods, you no longer have to worry about floating powder. You don’t have to worry about floating powder on your face during the communication process, which will affect your appearance.
