How to Use Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation Review — Is It Worth It?
- Start with moisturised, primed skin — primer creates a smooth canvas and extends foundation wear significantly.
- Pump a small amount of foundation onto the back of your hand. Less is more — you can always build coverage.
- Apply in 3 methods: fingers for sheerer finish, beauty sponge (dampened) for natural finish, brush for more coverage. Start at the centre of the face and blend outward.
- Build coverage in layers rather than applying one thick coat. Allow each layer to settle before adding more.
- Set with a light dusting of translucent powder under the eyes and in the T-zone to prevent creasing and control shine.
- Apply concealer under the eyes after foundation — this gives you a cleaner base and means you need less concealer to cover.
