Afternoon beauty fix: How to prime skin for smooth application (buh bye creases!)
Foundation tends to crack over my dry skin, especially if it’s loose powder or matte. Is there anything that can help smooth it over before I apply the second layer?
Use a light exfoliant on your skin twice per week and hydrate morning and evening with an oil or a collagen-rich moisturizer. After prepping skin with a primer and a light layer of foundation, use a creamy blush to add warmth to your complexion. Cover Girl and Olay Simply Ageless Blush ($15, at mass retailers) works well because it has a swirl of hypo-allergenic serum to pump vitamins and antioxidants into your skin. Using it instead will sculpt your cheeks and save your wrinkles from developing flaky bits by the end of the day.
