To establish the correct skin tone.
To obscure any differences of color in face.
To provide a “canvas” on which to work.
Select foundation:
Select a shade of foundation to match someone’s
skin tone is the first step and the most important
one.
Foundation should match the person’s skin tone and
be natural looking.
To test a foundation shade, place a tiny amount on
the forehead. If the color is correct, it will blend easily
with the natural tone of the skin.
