Don't pile tons of foundation on your face.
"There's really no need for you to wear layers of makeup on your face unless you're a Real Housewife on TV or a celebrity on tour," Sir John says. So, even if you can throw shade as well as NeNe Leakes or body roll like Beyoncé, that doesn't mean you need to wear as much makeup as they do on a daily basis.
If you're trying to hide breakouts or hyperpigmentation, however, apply a sheer application of your foundation and then let your concealer do the rest of the work. Simply dab a stick concealer (they're usually thicker) onto your problem spot and blend the formula into your skin using a slightly damp makeup sponge to help move the cover-up around.
