Step-by-Step Long-Lasting Application
Step 1: Skincare Prep
Start with clean, oil-free skin. Use lightweight moisturizer and always apply SPF 50+. See our Morning Skincare Routine for the full prep sequence.
Step 2: Primer
Apply mattifying primer on T-zone. Let set for 2-3 minutes before foundation.
Step 3: Foundation
Apply in thin layers with a damp beauty sponge. Build coverage gradually.
Step 4: Concealer
Use Maybelline Instant Age Rewind Concealer under eyes. Set immediately with powder. See our Concealer 101 guide for tips.
Step 5: Set with Powder + Setting Spray
Press translucent powder on T-zone. Finish with setting spray in X and T pattern. Let air dry completely.
Eye Makeup for Humid Weather
- Always use waterproof mascara and eyeliner
- Use eyeshadow primer before any eye products
- Powder eyeshadows last longer than creams in humidity
Touch-Up Strategy
Blot oil with blotting papers (don't rub). Lightly dust powder only where needed. Mist with setting spray to refresh. Never add more foundation on top.
Seasonal Adjustments
- Summer: Matte, long-wear products. Waterproof everything.
- Monsoon: FV Waterproof Foundation. Lip stains over lipstick. Extra setting spray.
- Winter: Switch to hydrating formulas. Cream blush. Moisturizing lipsticks.
