How to Choose the Foundation Match?

Some men find it hard to figure out the best shade that matches their skin colour and type. However, the shade you choose depends on your skin tone. Make sure that your makeup looks natural and doesn’t look cakey. Stay close to your skin colour while choosing the best foundation match.

If you are fair-skinned, neutral tones will suit you best. If you have a pale and clear face, go for shades of yellow or sand. Moreover, shades with a red base will be great for dark-skinned people.

Pro Tips- When you choose foundations, it is important to identify what type of undertones you have. You can examine the inside of your wrist. You have a neutral undertone if your veins are blue. Men with neutral undertones can wear both cool and warm foundation shades. If your veins look purple, you have cool undertones. Foundation with a pink tint will go best with your skin colour. You have warm undertones if your veins colour is green. You can pick the golden tones.

Which Foundation Will Suit Your Skin Type?

When we talk about makeup for men, the foundation is one that enhances the glow and erases all the fine lines instantly. It smoothes out your skin and reduces the appearance of large pores. Many foundations come with a liquid formula; however, there are some translucent finishing powders as well. It gives your skin a matte finish. The only thing you need to ensure is that you don’t overdo it. Here are different types of foundations that suit best on various skin types:

Dry skin

Normal skin

The powder with a fluid texture will be best for normal skin type.
