Q&A: Minimal Foundation Coverage

Q. My skin looks blotchy and uneven. I don't like my whole face covered with foundation especially in the summer! What can I do? 


A. For most people, the center of the face, the T zone (forehead, nose, inner cheek and chin) is the most uneven. Find a foundation that is a perfect match to your skin. A good match will allow you to apply foundation just where you need it so your whole face is not covered. Apply the foundation with a moist sponge to the areas where you need coverage. A moist sponge will help you blend the foundation with your skin. Apply a translucent powder with a brush to the areas with foundation and just beyond. This will give you a nice even look without the whole face being covered!
