The Basics - Part Two Foundation/Powder

[idk1885]

The whole warm/cool thing has always driven me nuts. I tried some Shu Uemura liquid foundation in 564 and it was too yellow for me. I love Shu Uemura foundation, so I am going to try 364 next time. I have redness to my face, but I think I am cool bc I am 100% Irish and I burn in the shade....yes? Wish I could send you my pic so you can tell me for sure.

[MsAliceWa]

Great tips. Thanks for great tutorials.

[PinkPearl691]

Got the bottom info from a blog and its sooo true! but generally, we need to respect people's preferences and their makeup techniques! I hate ignorant people who want to force th ewolrd how to wear their makeup

[launwatch]

@PinkPearl691 U rip thru me about ears, & then contradict urself here. IDIOT. U criticise everyone!

[PinkPearl691]

@launwatch I never contradict myself you idiot! youre the one telling folks to put powder on their ears! with all that fold and stuff! thats just unsanitary! you mihgt as well tell others to put it on their feet too! I hate dumbass folks like you! leave people the fuck be! if they like the look..than so be it! I hate these ugly papercut thin lip/beety eyed bitches who tell folks how to wear their makeup! if they want to put it there, FINE! but dont preach your false gospel on folks! U DUMB BITCH

[PinkPearl691]

Usually we humans are not one tone! we are not all yellow! there are fair skinned yellow people with pink undertones. Its actually preferred to use a combo of tellow/olive and red/pink undertones. You have to experiment. If you are yellow and use only yellow foundation than you will appear more flat( which is great if thats what you like) but addingpink makes you look rosier and many people love that. SO I and other people who worked in the makeup industry can and will disagree with that.

[PinkPearl691]

It depends on what you are trying to bring out the most. On some days some people prefer to look more rosier so they use a pink undertone. Some people want that more rosier undertone because it looks fresher/young. We all know that NC is gold and NW is pink in MAC. NC is lighter than NW, NW is more reddish/pink. An NC40 and NW40. There are people who see both yellow and splotches of pink on them. A yellow person will not look "ashy" when wearing pink undertones, they will look PINKY

[launwatch]

@PinkPearl691 Moron!

[PinkPearl691]

Some people are yellow toned which is light but with alot of splotches of pink. Ive seen many clients who are light/yellow but certain foundations made them look like "jaundice/yellow" they complained.The right combo of pink and yellow made them soo bright and radiant. Its all on personal preference,thats all.Our skin is very diverse

[jcrockstar2911]

great!



[Dwightinho56]

I am hooked. It all makes so much sense. Must admit I have become a little more daring lately, particularily when it comes to the amount of concealer and foundation.

[TheTisonnette]

Love it !thank you !

[happyantology]

i just love every single one of your videos... big fan from Argentina :)

[carlosomar1000]

great !!!!!!!!!

[launwatch]

Don't forget your EARS. White ears next to a toned/tan face JUST DON'T LOOK RIGHT! Remember to brush a little powder over around your ears, and the back of them at neck so it all matches. Just a quick swipe does it.

[PinkPearl691]

@launwatch you cant tell a person what looks right because makeup is subjective! I hate bronzer, I prefer pale whenit comes to foundations/powders! I dislike any bronzey looks..but I dont tell people to stop wearing bronzer. Some people are naturally lighter in other parts of their bodies! I doubt people will put powder on their ears, thats gross! u might as well put it on ur feet and hands

[xobekahgirl]

oh and thanks for discussing undertones! i am light at the moment but can tan well if i'm out in the sun. but my cheeks have a natural pink flush. so i've always been a bit confused as to whether i was "warm" or "cool" but now i know i'm just warm w/ pink cheeks! lol. no one ever mentions this either. they make it seem like if you see any hint of pink, that you are "cool."

[xobekahgirl]

i have never seen the blot with a tissue technique after applying the foundation. you give all the greatest tips that no one ever mentions! :)

[zomaster1]

OMG you look like a college prep boy now!!! awwwwwwww this is just ooooooo god!!!! toooo much cuteness!!!!!!

[lOvablexanq3l]

Do you need foundation and powder after using concealer?

[doglovingdreamer]

Interesting concept with using the chest as a matching point as opposed to using the face. BUT what if my face is slightly darker than my chest? It is exposed all the time after all. Should I go with a shade darker then?

[quichelondon]

Hands down, u are brilliant!!! I can watch your tutorials all day, everyday Love all the way from Trinidad, West Indies...

[yourbuggingme222]

Hi there I've seen most of your video's and you have a whole kit of HD Makeup Forever. Did you change your mind afterward?

Tracy

[Stephyrulz]

Thankyou for such a wonderful informative video :-) xx

[MAjYQSammi]

THANK YOU for clarifying the undertone issue! I was debating whether or not to get a foundation with pink undertones. The lady at the makeup store said I should, and I though the foundation looked TERRIBLE. Upon your recommendation, I switched. Oh my, it looks much better. :D

[fedina86]

love love love you

[girl123interrupted]

Goss you are so damn fabulous. I love your easy going, professional, non snooty attitude. If I become a millionaire, you can move into my guesthouse and do my makeup for $5,000 a day. K thanks!

[girl123interrupted]

Gass You're totally right about the skin tone colors, all of my sisters have warm tones, I have red in my cheeks but my arms get tan in the summer and when I started really wearing foundation a year ago I gravitated to the cool tones because I thought that's what I was, It never looked that good though so after your recommendation I switched to a warm undertone color and it totally cancelled out the redness in my cheeks, around my nose and eyelids and looks fab! <3'd the jaundice comment lol

[piinkapoo]

Great tut! Your such a cute genuine person. I love your videos! Have a great day(:

[meowbabymeow]

the "jaundice" reference was soo funny XD

[klaraccc1]

Brilliant tips thank you !

[raerjinx]

you really have a very good bone structure. you don't really need a model at all! please make a "HOW TO" video about mineral make up applications by the way.

[Sky0350]

Buddy, you rock! Your tutorials are a MUST SEE for anyone like me who is new to makeup and is till learning. Much Thanks! Sky035.

[LilyBeeish]

I LOVE YOU GOSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS! I CANT SAY AND WRITE IT ENOUGH! I WISH I HAD THE MONEY TO SHIP YOU FROM THE UK TO MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WOULD MAKE YOU MY PERSONAL MAKEUP ARTIST EVERY SINGLE DAY!

[seekceline]

[dancerstarmonkey]

You are amazing:)

[TheOneAndOnlyMorena]

I agree I can't find part 3

[lovelygal180]

OMG thats what i do with the napkin

[sj1605]

i am indian with dark skin. at the mac counter they gave me a nc50 powder foundation and an nc45 concealer. is that wrong for me? am i nw and not nc? i hv yellow undertones. the lady said that nw will make me look red.

[barbaramelina]

I can"t find part three!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mtisit]

a warm skintone has pink or red undertones and a cool skintone has yellow or golden undertones to the like on the colourwheel

[vanyel5]

i really love watching your videos...yes we all agree you're hot, but you're really smart and present yourself well, you teach without condescending, and you seem to have plenty of info to share! i'm not even a makeup artist, i was just hoping to get some tips to make my 42 year old male self look better without looking 'obvious', but i'm super impressed with your method of teaching!

[xoOnatalieOox]

SO MUCH BETTER THAN MICHELLE PHAN. SO MUCH.

[AnitaJust]

Haha - Yes, we Americans notice when the English and Aussies say "Haytch".

Seriously - Thank you for the helpful tips on this, all of this. I love the tricks - getting the foundation to set without a "locking" primer is golden - I want them to look like they are in their own skin - not someone else's. YaY!! \0/ And yes - you are a doll...because you are real...giving.

[lixxycharm]

you're the cutest and the most informative make up guru.

and def. my favourite one!

[1joeybaker]

LOL! Love the foundation in a pill box! :D

[00smm]

how do you clean powderpuffs? without thinking i washed mine and all the insides got smushed up and lumpy!..

[xXVampDamienXx]

omg!!! im going to M.U.D. soon lol ^^

[ShubhpreetC]

hey i'm very light otherwise but i have redness on my face so i just use nw20...is that not right??

[gingerlemonmace]

I would also like to know where part 3 is. That said your videos are the best--after years of not wearing makeup--I'm relearning how to apply makeup.

[flproctor]

I have been told that after 40, you should not use powder. Is this false? I still use a bit to set but am wondering if it accentuates wrinkles, etc.?

[ricomakeda]

so if you are warmed toned, are you supposed to counteract that with foundation? or buy a warm toned foundation. so do you match skin or counteract it?

[FASHIONISTADARLING]

what do you think of mac studio sculpt foundation? i know it was very popular for a while but do you think it is a good foundation? i have semi oily skin and am nw20 in mac

[julianosaur]

im latino and my face, neck, arms, and body are different shades of tan/brown what part should i use to match my foundation?

[chillteddychill]

where is part 3???

[efemed]

YOU ARE TERRIFIC, GREAT TIPS ;)

[mj9949]

Cool!

[melikeythesenthat]

Q- my face is darker than my chest. which tone shud i follow? im 23 n never found my perfect foundation coz of this problem.

[MichaelProductionss]

ur so hot

[devilonair]

I like to know if the MUD Foundation clog pores? is it non-comedogenic? I have oily skin. I'm looking for a full coverage foundation that doesn't clog my pores.

[rprmlr772]

Thank you for the great tips. I now realize that I have been putting on my make-up so wrong; now I know why my concealer creases under my eyes and in the past it actually turned me off to even put make-up on as it makes me look older. Thank you again for all the info and tips.

[JuneNightingale]

Your videos make me realize I have been putting on make up soooo wrong all these years! Hahaha. Thank you for teaching me better!

[feroshalan]

where can i buy mud foundation?

[ashers303]

I love your videos!! So genuine and just really informative and helpful.

Way to go, you're fantastic!

[p2009j]

[CardiganBabe]

For me, Bobbi Brown products work really well ! Pls see my new video featuring Bobbi's products!

[MorikoYuti]

Buying foundation is really a pain. People at MAC say I'm a NW15, but my chest is a teeny tiny bit yellowish.

[BrittnayWise]

I have learned more from you on YouTube in one week than I have at makeup counters for YEARS! Thank you!!!

[bambullqaa]

[overmooon]

[katie0095]

[crowleycf]

[stuffstuffstuffyay]

[CaraLienCerulean]

[Samiamea]

[Dhoketa]

I love you. You're brilliant. Oh btw, I second TheKenosan1. I'd like to mainly see the diff between cream and liquid foundation applications; close up, if you don't mind. Thanks.

[TheKenosan1]

Part 2 has proven as good as part 1. I'd like to see the difference between cream, mineral, and liquid foundations in application and ease of use, best coverage, etc...

:o}

[catmama54]

You are not only a joy to look at but you are BRILLIANT!!!!

[elphiebusayong]

i swear i love your tips!

[redberrycrumble]

thank you so much, really helpful video

[0RainbowAngel0]

Wayne - I really want to thank you! You have helped me sooooo much. I have suffered with oily skin and can't stand the fact that I spend alot of time on applying make up only for it to sink into the skin and end up with a greasy shine on my face! I have followed these very simple steps and guess what? It works!!!! I never have to touch up and am far less oily than I used to be. Thanks so much x

[jacquelineismeX]

i think men explain makeup better than woman! and your a big help thanks:)

[SarwenRHCPrule]

Your videos are SO SO SO HELPFUL!

[NvrSettle]

What is MUD?

[yoursforkeeps]

Makeup Designory

[illuminatedface]

Are cream foundations bad for oily skin? I used to wear MAC's Full coverage, and even if it was set, i touched my face and it came off on my fingers. or when i hugged someone it would get on their clothing. I prepped and set my skin. was it due to applying foundation to heavily?

Wonderful video. Also is the MUD foundation a cream or liquid?

Thanks

[yoursforkeeps]

MUD has cream foundation

[MMHazelnutLatte]

i like how you say "H"

[radnesssmilesily]

Love your videos. They are so informative and I have learned alot from watching just part 1 and 2 of these series of videos. Thank you for making them.

[skylamoxie123]

* i meant 'anytime' not anything

[skylamoxie123]

I read on your blog that you tried the MUFE HD and like it very much, will you be doing a tutorial anything soon?

thanks!

[juliagoolia72]

Mre, more, I want more! Oh..there IS more!

[MarissaGlamorous]

i love all of your tutorials! (: im just wondering what technique you use to clean your brushes?

[slafalci88]

Thank you very much for all your videos. Learned lots from you; if possible could you please share your thoughts and tips on aged, pigmented (melasma) skin? What kind of foundation to use? Cheers!

[ayesha1977]

Hello - EXELLENT tutorials. I have a question: I have deep wrinkles under my eyes due to eczema. This means the under eye area and sometimes, the eyelid are very dry. What is the best way to prep these areas. I find that my lines often appear deeper and emphasized with foundation and certain concealers. Any tips would be most appreciated!

[Mokambigai]

check the video on prep/concealer..he explains it well there.:)hope this helps..

[OliverKick]

i think mud maybe be the foundation for me. im using prescriptives right now in cocoa y/o and it just isnt deep enough!!

nto to mention ashy.

i have dark skin but with a nice orangy/gold undertone that i dnt want to mute out! mud maybe the one.

i had a look at illamasqua(sp) but that was too theatrical and heavy.

so it is a toss up between mud and becca???? which to choose.....some help would be cool if you could.

[mauinaniskincare]

Thanks for the excellent video. You give such a clear explanation of everything.

[lotusmoonrising]

great tutorial! thankyou :-)

[BarryDMoss]

Ah Ha... thanks for the tips! What's the difference between concealer and corrector?

[MakoBeauty]

you look like tim roth

[anitsirhcmarie]

I think I love you! Unlike many makeup artists, you dont act like youre "better" than anyone else. And youre cute :) Thanks & good job!

[MultiMakeupfan]

@anitsirhcmarie - YOU ARE SO RIGHT, JUST LOVE HIM, HE IS SO INFORMATIVE

[nousername81]

@anitsirhcmarie you're so right, he is hands down the best makeup guru on youtube

[Catalina031]

Awesome as always! BUT I am sooo confused as I just had a Mac MUA suggest NW20 as a color of foundation for me. What does NW stand for? Not Warm? By your definition I am most definately warm. So should have NC something which would stand for? Sorry I am confused.

[itslaurennlove]

makeupbytiffanyd has a great explanation on the nw vs nc. i suggest you go look it up.

[Catalina031]

thank you for the direction to tiffany

[sxyblndeflirt]

nw stands for neutralize warmth..which would mean you are warm toned, but you are toning it down.

: )

[Catalina031]

Hi! Thanks!

[sxyblndeflirt]

your welcome : )

[0RainbowAngel0]

Wow - I am a very oily skinned girly and can't stand the fact that I spend alot of time on my Make Up only for it to slip and slide a few hours later. The tissue trick and place and roll with a puff really worked a treat - thanks so much x

[humuhumunuknukuapuaa]

Thank you so much! You help so much, and I bet all of us

[leftlaneL]

I have been following your videos over the past month...applying everything in your recommended ways and getting such great results and compliments! Very impressed with your videos and info you share...thanks for the great work!

[shellygirll]

This is an awesome series, thanks so much for going to the touble. One question I would like to ask... what is the trick with the wet sponge, you mentioned it helps make skin look more natural but because the foundation you used doesn't require it we didn't get to see... is it just a matter of a 'stippling' technique, for want of a better word?

Great work again, thank you so much

[annekke1974]

Love your vids and your tips. Thanks a lot =)

[looweehse]

I'm really loving this series. I had no idea about the cotton bud trick! I'll be trying that out tomorrow morning :)

[opaqueheart09]

If only I could give you 5 more stars because this series deserves 10 stars per installment! You are so informative! It is like watching a fantastically interesting professor of make-up application! I am anxiously awaiting the other installments. I know I have stroked your ego a bit tonight, but it was all sincere. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. **SMOOCHES**

[sjlegra]

I love love love these videos! Thank you so much this means a lot :)

[leanne109]

Thank you so much once again!

[1guiltfree]

Great tipson the powder, tissue and q-tips. Wayne can you do a tutorial on correct moisturizer with various types of foundations such as matte, mineral, dewy, and oil free?? Thanks :o))))

[testubebabi]

I so look to you as my "makeup guru". These episodes are truly valuable. Thanks for all the effort and knowledge you exude. Thank you.

[Miserlymom]

great tips in here. There were a couple different things you did that I've never seen and never would have thought to do: one being using something to blot the face after foundation and another being the q-tip under the eye to remove the excess powder from creases. I'm going to start doing this and see how well it works out for me! Thanks for yet another great, informative video!

[fabulouslystyle]

you are super genial thank you for all those great tips I can't wait for the rest. every time I watch a vid from you I learn something new.xoxoxo stay fabulous and god bless you

[tokyorosa]

I have combination skin and when I use a liquid foundation it looks fine on its own. When I try to set it with a (loose or pressed) translucent powder either with a brush or with a puff, it looks terribly cakey. Am I using the wrong powder? The wrong foundation? The wrong technique? All of the above?

[littleoxmac]

You're awesome! thanks for all the tips =)

[albakiaras]

thanks a lot for the last trick about the eyes.............you are so sweet and professional!

[BlackRoseAeternus]

Thank you soooooooooooooo much for the info, very useful, as always :)

[romrhythm]

you are so sweet:)

[samjones0528]

love it as usual especially the wee tip at the end x

[GlaamourPusss]

I love this series of videos! Thank you so much for the tips and tricks!!!! x

[LSxo7]

Even the NC15 is too dark for me. It's annoying.

[katherine415]

get outta here...that probably means you are NW15 because that one is lighter.

You might need to mix a bit of foundation with moisturizer. That always seems to help lighten my foundation for the winter :)

[teutonen22]

snowwhite was cool toned! this sounds like she actually exist! ;)

tnx, for this really informative video! i'll practice, practice, practice!

[daisy1403]

thx. it's very useful for me. :)

[MercedesGames]

Btw...that MUD foundation...is that the actual name..or is that an acronym..?...I found a website..but wanted to make sure..and u use the cream? Where can i find the SHU brush..? Please and Thank you..!~

[Ayla888]

best youtube vid I have ever seen.

Thank you! :)

[MercedesGames]

i do that with the tissue too....but i'm old school....lol.

When i use a brush..q-tip or whatever..I look up..to flatten that area out a bit..Or i'll put a q-tip there right under lash line.. to flatten the area...however i only like certain powder in that area..like a veil...I absolutely love a mineral veil..I've just ordered the Silica powder...i'm going to try it ..can't wait till it gets here..!..lol..

Thanks for sharing..I love your videos..!~

[thisisabludgeaccount]

you're an incredible man, i always learn tonnes from your videos, can't wait for more!

[CooksAndLooks]

do I wish you lived next door. I would make you a cuppa and you could do my foundation for me. Oh well. guess I just have to keep practicing and learn to do it myself . lol

[chewyliz]

Thanks for such an informative tut. Do you have any recommendations on foundations for super oily skin? I have issues with oil coming through after only 10 mins and it can oxidise my foundation. I use a mineral make up with mac blot powder at the moment. Thanks Wayne!!

[mnyvld]

a few stuff (unless you know them already).

1.If your foundation oxidises (turns darker) pick a foundation with 1 shade lighter.

2.I think Rimmel or Revlon (but i think revlon.. hmm) has a foundation perfect for super-oily skin.

3. Try natural treatments for oily skin (NEVER alcohol). For example: aspirin mask, some citrus juice (oranges, grapefruits, lemons) with water (2:1 proportion).

[mnyvld]

4. Natural toners (put some water on organic rice, mix it until it gets whiter - theres's your toner to help control your oils). Don't use alcohol on your face becauseIT WILL stimulate oil secretion even more.

Hope it helps.

[mnyvld]

I said organic rice because pesticide-treated rice leaves pesticeide solution "artefacts" in the water.

Also try HUSK with warm water as a mask. Works great but smells a bit weird

[chewyliz]

Thanks so much for your comments. I am very pale so it's difficult to go 1 shade lighter as the lightest shade in most ranges is too dark. I did try silica powder from TKB but it didn't really make a huge difference. I'll try your rice water toner suggestion though. Thanks again!

[MercedesGames]

Use a Silica powder..to set your makeup...its awesome for oily skin...i was just saying I ordered some..can hardly wait till it gets here..to try it..lol...MUFE has some...however i bought mine from CS...alot cheaper..and is the same stuff..:)..Add me as a friend if u want...see when i get it..:D

[chewyliz]

Hi and thanks for your comment. I have tried silica from TKB (much cheaper than MUFE) but the diference wasn't that spectacular on me :(

Hope it works for you ;)

[MercedesGames]

Oh ok..well i know there is a difference between the concentration...particle size...Mufe uses 7..CS uses 2 microns..TKB uses 5...The smaller the better.....Which is why i went with them..but i've yet to try it...I look forward to it..and I hope it works..thanks for reply..!~

[beautyfashionhair]

Love it! Thanks for all the great tips! YOu rock.

[zebhk]

Absolutely love watching your videos!

[peachypink604]

Thnx for the tip. I was always confused about which tone I am b/c I have reddness. And LOL at "doesn't mean you've got to look jaundice"! That made me laugh!!

[sassylollipop]

I'm loving this series. Very helpful! Thanks!

[vanessaortiz07]
