FLUID FOUNDATION

We all know there are different types of foundations, each offering a different finish and coverage. Cream and powder foundation are typically the heaviest and cover the most while tinted moisturizers and BB creams offer the lightest coverage and feel. Liquid foundation falls in the middle of the spectrum. Until now! There is a new breed of liquid foundations that are so thin (you will literally die when you feel how thin they are… Ok not literally but you know what I mean!) yet they are formulated to give medium to full coverage. They feel so amazing, as if you’re not wearing anything, and there’s a different technique to apply them. Here’s all you need to know about fluid foundation: 
TOOLS:
STEPS:
  1. Pour a small amount of the fluid foundation in the palm of your hand. Dip your index finger in and start tapping it all over your face. If you’re impatient like I am, dip your index, middle and ring fingers in and tap all three all over to save time.
  2. Massage gently by swirling and tapping your fingers until it disappears into your skin. Repeat steps 1 and 2 to build the coverage in areas you need more.
  3. Optional: if you have a stubborn acne scar, blemish or dark spot that is still peeking through, go back and erase it with the concealer stick (don’t forget to blend it with your finger and set with powder using an eyeshadow blending brush).

How Air Pollution Is Damaging Your Health

Image
Exposure to air pollution is associated with numerous effects on human health, including pulmonary, cardiac, vascular, and neurological impairments. The health effects vary greatly from person to person. High-risk groups such as the elderly, infants, pregnant women, and sufferers from chronic heart and lung diseases are more susceptible to air pollution. Children are at greater risk because they are generally more active outdoors and their lungs are still developing. Exposure to air pollution can cause both acute (short-term) and chronic (long-term) health effects.
