My personal beauty tip: applying hair essence before using a curling iron!

When using cushions or foundations, there were days when my skin looked clean, but other days when it felt particularly thick and clumpy. Since the results varied even though I was using the same product, I thought about the reason.

I found out that this often happens when there is too much product on the puff initially. So these days, instead of applying the product directly to my face, I’ve added a step to prep it.

After applying foundation to the puff, do not apply it directly to your face. Instead, gently tap it once on the back of your hand or the inside of the puff cap to even out the amount. This step alone makes the amount on the puff much more even.

Then, if you apply it by patting it onto your face, it doesn't go on thickly all at once but creates a much thinner and more natural finish. I can definitely feel a reduction in clumping, especially around the nose and cheeks.

Since I started using this method, my skin looks much cleaner even with the same products, so it is a technique I have been maintaining lately.
