It takes a special strategy in choosing and applying cosmetic products so that your makeup lasts and doesn't smudge.

Brilio.net - Having an oily and sweaty face can be a challenge, especially for those who often wear makeup. The combination of excess oil and sweat makes it more difficult for makeup to stick well, so the face tends to fade and crack easily. As a result, the makeup looks uneven, clumps in some areas, and even looks dull over time.

This problem usually occurs because excessive oil production makes it difficult for foundation or powder to blend with the skin. Coupled with sweat that comes out during activities, the makeup layer is even more prone to shifting and leaving a patchy or uneven impression. In this condition, not only the makeup is affected, but also the appearance of the skin which can appear rougher and the pores more prominent.

To overcome this, a special strategy is needed in choosing and applying makeup products. If you are confused, you can imitate the trick from YouTube user DesiMJ Official. Through one of the videos uploaded, he admitted to having a special method to prevent makeup from fading and cracking when makeup is on an oily or sweaty face.

As reported by briliobeauty.net from YouTube DesiMJ Official on Sunday (6/4), there are several steps that must be taken before applying foundation. First, apply moisturizer to the entire surface of the skin. This step is important as a skin prep to make the makeup stick better.

Well, before applying foundation, use loose powder first. No need for too much, just apply a little thinly using a brush. If the powder is even, immediately spray with setting spray.

Once done, then use foundation, cream blush, and contour. You can also use eyeshadow and eyebrow pencil if you like. Well, after finishing, set the complexion with powder again. At this stage, the makeup becomes more flawless and blurring, you know.

Using loose powder and setting spray before foundation is a common trick to make makeup last longer, especially on oily and sweaty faces. This method works by creating a layer of oil and sweat lock before liquid products like foundation are applied. Loose powder works to absorb excess oil from the start, while setting spray helps create a stickier base so that foundation can adhere better.

Loose powder applied first acts as an oil-absorbing cushion, so that when foundation is applied over it, the oil production from the skin does not immediately mix with the makeup product. This helps reduce the risk of makeup becoming oval or cracking in areas of the face that are often oily, such as the T-zone.

In addition, using a setting spray after loose powder helps hold the powder particles so they don't look too dry or excessive. Not only that, it also provides additional adhesion to the foundation that will be applied.

This technique is known as "sandwiching" or "reverse method", which is very effective in creating a more matte and long-lasting makeup look. This way, the foundation does not come into direct contact with oily skin, so the results are smoother and do not shift easily when exposed to sweat. For best results, choose a loose powder with a light formula and a setting spray that contains mattifying agents, so that the face stays fresh without looking cakey or excessive.
