Mix moisturizer with your foundation for a more sheer look

Wearing foundation can be an excellent way to elevate your makeup look. A flawless base always looks refined and put together, and can be a great start for whatever you put on top of it. However, many foundations can look a little bit too "much" for everyday wear.

Luckily, there's a solution to this common base woe. You can mix your foundation with a moisturizer, to achieve a sheer, glowy effect. The finish will be far more natural, and this can make your makeup more forgiving on skin texture. For a stunningly natural base, this hack will be your best friend.
