Create Your Own Bespoke Foundation
"I love mixing my foundation with something else to customize my look, depending on what I want to achieve that day. I like mixing it with an oil to give me a more dewy finish, or I like to mix two completely different foundations together to get the best of both foundations. For example, if I love the color and finish of one foundation but the longevity of another, I can mix them together to give me exactly what I'm looking for."

Start With Supersmooth Skin
"For flawless foundation, my favorite trick is to shave off all the peach fuzz off my face. I know, superweird -- but I've been doing it for years and it helps with acne as well!"

Hydrate Your Skin and Your Tools
"Hydrate the tool you're applying with and the surface you're applying to -- using a damp sponge or brush helps to get perfect coverage without wasting product, and using argan, coconut or almond oil on skin before applying makeup makes the blending easier. Plus, your skin will look healthier, as you don't have to rub too much to blend the colors."

Let Your Powder Bake
"The most important trick for a flawless foundation application is setting your foundation in place. I use a loose powder and pack it onto my beauty blender. I heavily apply it to my under-eye area, and use an excess amount all over my face. At first, it looks like too much, but after you let it sit for about 5 minutes, you brush away the excess and are left with foundation that will not budge."

Spritz After Setting
"When my skin is breaking out, I make sure to set my foundation and concealer with plenty of powder so it won't budge. But to avoid the 'cake face' look that a heavy powder application can give, finalize your makeup with a dewy finishing spray to replace your skin's natural, healthy glow."
