Foundation

Years ago we started wearing foundation. At that time, there was often only one type of foundation, and it was not suitable for all skin types. This caused the foundation to look very unnatural and made the skin look fake. Today's foundation is quite different. There are now a huge variety of foundations available for purchase. In addition, there are now many different tools you can use to apply foundation, such as a foundation brush or a makeup sponge. No matter what skin tone or skin type you have, there is a foundation that perfectly suits your needs.

Because today's foundation is less noticeable, it can also be worn daily. Most foundations now also contain SPF (sun protection factor), so your skin is also protected from the sun when you wear foundation. Almost all foundations now also contain various vitamins and minerals. This not only helps foundation create an even complexion, but also supports or even improves your skin's condition.

When choosing a foundation, you should first determine what type of skin you have: dry, oily, or sensitive. You may also have combination skin. Most brands indicate which skin type the foundation is suitable for, but there are also many brands that offer foundations suitable for all skin types. In our range, you will find foundation for every skin type: foundation for dry skin, for oily skin, combination skin, sensitive skin, and mature skin. The foundation for dry skin contains a hydrating formula. In addition, there are now also foundations specially made for mature skin. If you have very sensitive skin, it is advisable to always use a foundation suitable for sensitive skin and to avoid foundations that are suitable for all skin types. If you have oily skin, it is best to choose a powder foundation. For dry skin, a liquid foundation or foundation stick will look better. There is also mineral foundation; a minerals foundation has a formula made from natural ingredients, so it contains no ingredients that are bad for the skin.

There is full-coverage foundation, but there are also so-called lightweight foundations that provide semi-coverage. These foundations are very lightweight, so wearing them feels as though you are not wearing any foundation at all. A regular foundation will, of course, provide a more even result because it effectively creates a layer on your face, making imperfections and blemishes less visible. At Blisso, you will find Rimmel foundation, L'Oréal foundation, Bourjois foundation, NYX foundation, Max Factor Foundation, and Maybelline foundation in all kinds of shades. The shades range from fair foundation to foundation for dark skin.

In addition to knowing how to choose and use foundation, it is also important to remove it properly. For the best results, most beauty specialists recommend not wearing foundation for more than 12 hours. However, this varies greatly depending on the type of foundation and how you apply it. For example, always apply a day cream to your cleansed skin before applying foundation. It is also a good idea to apply a moisturizer after removing your foundation.
