How to use your powders sparingly

Watch this quick video for our tip on applying your finishing powder. It's important to apply it in key areas instead of packing it on. After all, you don't want to get rid of the dewy highlight glow you so carefully applied this morning!

Materials
- Finishing powder
- Medium powder brush
Instructions
1. With a mirror handy, pick out your favorite powder brush. A medium tip is best since a large powder brush will distribute too much powder and stamp out your highlight shine.
2. Pick up your finishing powder on the brush tip and strategize on your application.
3. Shake off any excess powder and tap the brush on the areas of your face that show the most oil. This is usually the jaw, nose, and cheek areas just under the eyes.
By applying powder sparingly, you've saved some of the highlighter you previously applied and achieved your fresh-faced glow again.
