  • Hey guys, thank you so much for tuning in to my channel. Today, I'm going to be showing

  • you a full coverage foundation. Now, most of my foundation routines are full coverage,

  • even my everyday casual no makeup routines are full coverage, because I have olive skin,

  • hyper-pigmented skin, under-eye circles that are crazy, and lots of imperfections -- that

  • probably only I notice. I have a pretty bad -- it's not that bad -- but, for right now

  • and for most recently, my skin has been really good, so now I feel like it's really bad.

  • I definitely struggled with acne the most in middle school and in high school. Now,

  • I definitely feel like if I get an acne breakout, I know why, it's usually something that I

  • did, like drinking or eating or not working out or stressing or not sleeping enough. Normally,

  • in these situations, I will hide from social media and from the general pubic, unless I

  • can't avoid it, but I thought that this time around, I would instead try to help some of

  • you who could benefit from some of the tips that I use. Yaaaaaaaaaay! I will also teach

  • you how to contour and highlight, which if done wrong, when you have an acne breakout,

  • it could make your breakout stand out even more, which you don't want. So I hope you

  • enjoy this video, thank you so much for watching, let's go ahead and get started. First up for

  • products, I'm never without my Neutrogena healthy skin primer, this is my favorite.

  • I never believed in primer, until I started using this, honestly, and what I'll do is

  • I'll paint on a thick coat -- yeah, not just a pea size, a THICK coat -- all over, especially

  • on dark and dry spots. And, as you can and will see, it lightens, it brightens, it smooths

  • your pores and blemishes, even scabs, and -- most importantly - it protects and nourishes

  • my skin. I honestly feel like this prevents breakouts, and it keeps my makeup on all day

  • long. Like, I'm convinced it's waterproof, and I honestly can't say enough good things.

  • I'm gonna grab a spoolie brush to gently flick off any dry skin flakes that have now softened

  • from the primer. And make sure that that brush is clean, or else you could end up with some

  • mustaches all over your face. Now for foundation. This is my obsession, Studio Fix fluid. But

  • rather than using concealer, which can so easily be spotty and require a lot of retouching,

  • I just brush and build up this full coverage foundation, which covers absolutely every

  • imperfection. I'll layer it up first in the darkest areas, work my way all over, and then

  • revisit areas that need it. I do like using a foundation that is one to three shades lighter

  • than my skin. This helps with hiding dark spots and also gives me a little shortcut

  • with contouring and highlighting. And I'm sure that there are people watching who are

  • gonna say that full coverage foundation is what's causing all of my breakouts, which

  • it's not true, I will save that for another video, but I do wanna say that if you skip

  • primer and if you're not washing your face, you are going to break out no matter what

  • you're using, whether it's full coverage foundation, sheer foundation or even face paint, so those

  • two steps are very important. And no blending brushes here, because we really wanna build

  • up that coverage. Now for some color, I'm using two different bronzers, because parts

  • of my skin are dry and parts of my skin are oily. So first up, I'm using a powder on my

  • cheeks, which have some blemishes. I'm gonna avoid that area, because I don't want to make

  • spots darker or for the area to look even more bumpy, so I'm just sculpting my cheeks

  • by going along the outer rounds and then along my jawline. I'm also a nose contour person.

  • If I'm breaking out here, I will skip this step completely, because I don't want the

  • bumps to make a crooked line. It's not too bad today though, so I'm gonna go ahead and

  • do it. As for my forehead, it is super dry and broken out; powder would definitely make

  • any flakes or bumps stand out even more, so I'm using a soft solid and blending with my

  • finger, definitely focusing on my hairline and not where there is a lot of irritation.

  • Now, I do use some concealer, only around my eyes, which are the hardest and biggest

  • dark spots on my face to cover. I actually call them my panda circles. And you'll see

  • that I'm pressing instead of rubbing, which will allow for max coverage. I'm gonna go

  • ahead and apply my blush, which is more of a coral salmon color because I don't wanna

  • bring out any other pink or redness on my face. And just a little bit here, a little

  • dab on the apples of my cheeks, and that's it. Last, just for a little extra coverage

  • and protection, I'm setting my under-eye circles, along with really any other dark spots or

  • areas that need it with this Studio Fix matte powder, which really makes everything disappear.

  • So here is the final look. I hope you enjoyed this video, the results! If you have any questions

  • about what I did or the products that I used, any requests for upcoming video, please let

  • me know in the comments below. Thank you so much for watching. For more videos, please

  • give a thumbs up, share this video, subscribe to my channel, and I will see you next time

  • *Kiss* Bye!
