What is the difference between liquid foundation and air cushion? Which one is more harmful to the skin?

Usually the most basic step of a makeup is to apply the base. If the base is not applied well, then the following steps are useless. At the same time, there are certain skills in choosing the liquid foundation for base makeup. So what is the difference between liquid foundation and air cushion? Which one is more harmful to the skin, foundation or air cushion?

Most liquid foundations are packaged in glass bottles with built-in pumps or rubber-tipped droppers, but air cushions are packaged in small boxes with sponges soaked in BB cream, which can be gently pressed with a puff to come out; the concealing effect is different, the concentration and fineness of liquid foundation are much greater than that of air cushions, so whether it is a light liquid foundation or a thick and heavy liquid foundation, the concealing power is still greater than that of air cushions; the makeup effect is different in durability, and the lasting effect of liquid foundation is better than that of air cushions. The air cushion foundation is finer in powder quality than liquid foundation, and the makeup feels natural and clear. The patting makeup technique makes the foundation fit the skin better, and there is no need to worry about uneven application. Liquid foundation is easy to dry and uneven. If the moisturizing work before makeup is not in place, dry skin may cause cracks and peeling.

It depends on the ingredients of the material. Generally speaking, using regular products will not harm the skin. Foundation and air cushion are cosmetics that are often used for makeup, but if the ingredients are intolerant to the skin, it will easily cause skin irritation. So which one will harm the skin depends on the individual's skin type. If the skin is too sensitive, when choosing air cushion or foundation, pay attention to choosing a milder one.

Take out an appropriate amount of liquid foundation and apply it on the back of your hand, then use your index finger to apply it on your cheeks, chin, nose tip and forehead. The liquid foundation on the forehead should be gently applied from the middle to the sides, lightly applied around the eyes, and applied from bottom to top on the chin, philtrum and nose. Pay attention to your skin type when applying. If you have dry skin, you should do basic skin care and choose a moisturizing liquid foundation. If you apply too thickly around the eyes, fine lines will easily appear, so try to look up when applying, and use a light press method, which will help reduce the formation of fine lines. When applying liquid foundation, be careful to apply it thinly and evenly, apply it on the sides of the cheeks, neck and behind the ears, and there should be a natural and soft transition between the liquid foundation and the skin color.

Whether it is a facial mask or a primer, moisturizing before makeup is a must in any season. Because if the skin is dehydrated and makeup is applied directly, you may see oil on your face right after it is applied. So you must moisturize well before applying makeup. You must use a primer, sunscreen, and isolation before applying makeup. When applying liquid foundation, you don't need to apply it too thickly, just a thin layer is enough. So many people just press it twice with their fingertips when applying liquid foundation. In order to make our makeup last longer, it is best to use a sponge to apply makeup together, because this can prevent the oil on your fingers from messing up your makeup, and at the same time make the liquid foundation more adherent and better absorbed by the skin, so that your makeup will be more natural and lasting. Finally, the base makeup seems to be completed, but it still lacks a little makeup setting thing, that is, honey powder or loose powder. Honey powder can control the oil on the face and make the face drier. Pay special attention to the T-zone of the face when applying it, because this is where the most oil is produced, so that BB can last longer and will not get stuck or fall off.
