Here’s how to achieve a seamless look using blending techniques:
Blend using a sponge: Beauty hub, Otis Batterbee states that when blending with a sponge you need to dampen (spray your setting spray) to avoid too much product absorption. Apply foundation or concealer directly to the skin or back of your hand, then blend with a dabbing motion. The beauty hub advises focusing on one blending sport at a time.
Blend with a brush: The blending brush technique is one of the easiest methods as you use it for your blush, bronzer and eyeshadow. Instyle, beauty hub, states that you need to first apply the product on your hand and then to your brush to achieve a seamless look. Also, remember to blend in circular motions to bring all products together.
Blend using your fingers: Makeup artist Ciara Glionna suggests, “Cream and liquid products blend amazingly with your fingers, but remember to use less than you would with a brush or sponge because no product will get absorbed into the tool.”
