Instructions
1. Squeeze a pea-sized amount of moisturizer on to your Beautyblender. Use it to dab the moisturizer on to the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin. Spread moisturizer evenly using gentle outward strokes. Avoid excess pressure, as this will cause the Beautyblender to absorb product.
2. Squeeze a pea-sized amount of primer on to your Beautyblender and apply it to your face using the same techniques in step 1.
3. Apply the foundation by squeezing a dime-sized amount on to the back of your hand or piece of paper. Spread out the foundation into a thick, even layer with the tip of your finger or makeup brush. Dab one side of the Beautyblender into the foundation and dab foundation on to the nose, cheeks, forehead and chin.
4. Blend the foundation with gentle, smooth, outward strokes until it is even. Little to no pressure is required. More foundation may be used for more coverage, but do this in layers to avoid makeup looking caked-on.
