The secret to skin tone corrected from #23 to #21✨

Hello, this is Kim Aeong, a member of the 13th Unnie's Pouch Supporters😊
I naturally have shade 23 skin, but I was stressed because my complexion looked even duller due to darkening when I wore makeup.🥹 Especially since my face would get darker over time, I used to do touch-ups frequently.
I recently changed my base routine, so I’m going to share some great tips!
My order is sunscreen → VDL tone-up primer → concealer → a thin layer of cushion → powder.
First: Before applying VDL primer Second: After applying VDL primer
After evening out your skin tone with sunscreen, apply a thin layer of VDL Tone-Up Primer all over your face to even out your skin tone and brighten it naturally. Cover only the necessary areas with concealer on top, and it is important to apply the cushion foundation really thinly. I found that applying it too thickly actually made the darkening worse.
Finally, I apply powder, and the key here is the spin powder. Lightly applying this makes the skin look a shade brighter, and it hardly looks dark over time.☺️
And something I always make sure to do in addition is match my neck tone. The Espoir Water Splash Tone-Up Sunscreen matches my face tone well, and using just this one product significantly elevates the overall finish of my makeup.
The best thing about switching to this routine was that darkening was significantly reduced. The brightness lasted quite a long time after I first applied my makeup, so I’ve been sticking to this method lately.
If you're like me with shade 23 but want a brighter, cleaner complexion, I recommend giving this a try!😊🩵
