How to use makeup fixer 🌞 I'll explain everything from how to spray it to the difference between it and powder fixer.

🌞 Hello!

 

Are you all using makeup fixer?

 

In the past, I just...
I thought you were supposed to spray it on right after you finished your makeup.

It turns out that depending on how to use the fixer
The base lasts longer, but I found that it can actually clump or stain!

 

 

Especially in the summer, if you just know how to properly apply setting spray
My makeup doesn't smudge as much. 😆

So today, let's start with how to use makeup fixer.
I'll tell you the difference between powder and fixer, and even the order in which to apply them!

[How to use fixer, when is the best time to spray?]

The most basic thing about using a fixer is
After the makeup is somewhat complete It's sprinkled.

 

Usually, once after finishing base makeup,
I often use it by spraying it one more time after finishing the entire color tone.

 

✔️ Daily Makeup → Once after finishing makeup ✔️ Days when longevity is important → Once after base + once after full makeup ✔️ Days when skin feels dry and flaky → Lightly dab onto a puff and press the base onto it for close adhesion.

 

However, if you spray too much fixer

The base can get stained as the skin gets wet.
Thinly several times It is good to spray it.

[How to spray fixer]

How to spray setting spray is... distance That is important.

 

If you spray it too close to your face
The spray particles may clump together in one place, causing the foundation to slide off.

from the face Spray evenly from a distance of about 20 to 30 cm. I recommend doing it.

 

▶️ Order of applying basic fixer 1️⃣ Gently shake before using the fixer 2️⃣ Stay about 20~30cm away from your face 3️⃣ Close your eyes and spray a thin layer over your entire face 4️⃣ Let it dry naturally without patting with your hands or a puff. 5️⃣ Once completely dry, spray a thin layer once more if necessary.

 

 

 

The key point here is
Do not touch it immediately after spraying. It is.

 

It feels like the fixer sets the makeup as it dries.
If you pat it on with a puff while it is wet, the base might actually look cakey.

[How to use makeup fixer: Can I use it in the middle of applying base makeup?]

This is a part that many people are curious about.

You don't necessarily have to use makeup fixer only at the very end.

 

If you want to increase the longevity
It is okay to use it once in the middle of your base makeup.

 

 

For example

✔️ Allow sufficient absorption after basic skincare

✔️ Use sunscreen and primer

✔️ Apply a thin layer of foundation or cushion

✔️ Lightly spray fixer for the first application

✔️ Apply powder or color makeup after it is completely dry

✔️ Spray fixer a second time at the end

 

 

If you do this The base adheres better to the skin I have a feeling it works.

 

However, those with dry skin
If you spray the fixer too many times, you may feel tightness.
It is best to limit it to about 1 to 2 times!

[Difference in Powder Fixer]

Many people get confused about the difference between powder and fixer, right? 🙂

 

Simply put
powder It is a product that controls oil and sets a matte finish, and
Fixer It is a product that creates a thin film over makeup to increase its longevity.

 

▶️ Powder The powder Sebum and oil Please press it Reduce shine soft, matte skin finish Make it for me. Especially around the nose, forehead, and chin It is good for areas where oil rises quickly. For oily skin or summer makeup It helps to press the powder thinly first.   ▶️ Makeup Fixer Makeup fixer On the skin A finishing step product that sets makeup are you. Luminous type, matte type, moisturizing type, etc. The finish varies from product to product.   inattention For skin, a moisturizing fixer, intelligence For this skin type, it works well when used with a matte fixer or powder.

[Powder first? Fixer first?]

Personally
Apply powder first, then the setting spray last. I recommend the order in which to sprinkle.

 

After base makeup
Lightly press powder only on the areas where oil is rising, and
It is a method of finishing with a setting spray after completing the entire makeup.

 

✔️ Nose, forehead, chin → A small amount of powder

✔️ Cheeks, cheekbones → Minimize powder

✔️ Last step → Spray a thin layer of fixer

 

 

If you do it this way, it won't be too matte
You can achieve makeup that is less likely to smudge.

 

However, if you apply too much powder and then spray a setting spray
On the contrary, the powder might look clumped together.
It is really important to apply the powder very thinly!

[Precautions when using fixer]

Something subtly important about how to use a fixer is
Spraying a lot doesn't mean it lasts longer. It's a dot.

 

If you spray a lot from close up
Rather than the staying power increasing, the base might get wet and break down.

 

✔️ Do not spray close to your face

✔️ Do not spray too much at once

✔️ Do not touch with hands immediately after spraying

✔️ If your eye area is sensitive, close your eyes tightly when using.

✔️ If you have sensitive skin, test products with a strong alcohol scent before use.

 

 

Especially after spraying the fixer
If you hurriedly touch your face with your hand
Makeup may smudge before it sets 🥲

It is best to wait for about 1 to 2 minutes after spraying.

To summarize

Using the fixer isn't difficult, but
Just keeping the order and distances right makes a pretty big difference.

 

✔️ Shake the fixer before use

✔️ Spray from a distance of 20~30cm from your face

✔️ Dry after spraying without patting with your hands

✔️ Powder is for controlling oil, and setting spray is for increasing hold.

✔️ Apply powder thinly first, then lightly apply setting spray last.

 

 

Makeup fixer
It is not a product that you spray excessively.

You must sprinkle it thinly and evenly. It is a beautiful product that lasts a long time.

 

 

For those of you who, like me, were confused about how to apply setting spray
You'll notice that your makeup breaks down much less just by changing the order of your powder and setting spray 💘

 

By any chance, in what order do you all use your fixers?
Please share whether you use powder first or setting spray first haha
