Can liquid foundation be made into a cushion? How long does liquid foundation expire?

Liquid foundation is the most common makeup product. It can help even out our skin tone, cover facial blemishes, and create a delicate and perfect base makeup. It is not allowed to convert liquid foundation into an air cushion.

The texture of liquid foundation is different from that of air cushion, so liquid foundation is not suitable for making your own air cushion. Liquid foundation may be stratified when used to make air cushion, which will affect the moisturizing effect of liquid foundation. Usually, after using up our air cushion, we can directly replace it with the air cushion replacement package. The replacement method is also very simple and you don’t need to make it yourself.

How long does liquid foundation expire?

The shelf life of liquid foundation before opening is generally three years. The specific situation varies according to the regulations of different brands. The shelf life of liquid foundation after opening is generally within one year. This is because it is sealed before opening the bottle, so it can be stored for a longer time.

What to do if the liquid foundation is separated

Usually, you should change a bottle of liquid foundation after the stratification occurs, because the chemical composition inside the liquid foundation has changed at this time. Such products should not be used for makeup, because the original effect has disappeared. The stratified liquid foundation will either have its adhesion greatly weakened, or the particles will clog the pores, and in severe cases, it will cause allergies and other symptoms, so it is a wise choice to discard it. And if skin care products such as lotions have similar phenomena, don't use them again. If you want to avoid this situation, you should tighten the bottle cap after each use. Some people have a big misunderstanding about the shelf life of liquid foundation, thinking that the shelf life of liquid foundation before and after opening is the same, but in fact, the storage time after we buy the liquid foundation and open it will be greatly discounted than before opening. Only when it is not opened can it be preserved for as long as the shelf life on the cover. However, the shelf life of liquid foundation after opening the bottle is generally only about 12 months. After the foundation is layered, the original effect has been lost. Therefore, even if the surface of the squeezed product looks unchanged, the effect on human skin is actually very limited. So don't continue to use layered foundation just to save trouble. When applying the foundation, we must apply it evenly and at the right thickness. Only in this way can the makeup done later achieve better results. Otherwise, it will look patchy like a patch on the face. At the same time, we can choose to use a foundation brush directly during the application process. The base makeup applied with a foundation brush will be more transparent and even, and the nude makeup effect will also be better.

Precautions for using air cushion

Before using the air cushion, you must clean and moisturize your skin, and do basic skin care work, so that the air cushion and skin will fit better. You can use a primer before applying the air cushion to increase the fit of the air cushion, so that it is not easy to remove makeup. When using the air cushion, you should apply makeup in small amounts and multiple times, and use the method of gently pressing and patting, applying makeup along the skin texture, and pressing carefully.
