What are the uses of liquid foundation?

Function 1 of liquid foundation: Effectively help you protect yourself from the sun and isolate dirty air

Some skin hazards are difficult to avoid. For example, even if you are bare-faced, you cannot avoid ultraviolet rays and pollutants in the air. The second major function of liquid foundation is to block these two irresistible natural factors. Some liquid foundations also have sun protection functions and can have a "dust-proof" effect.

Warm reminder: If you need to stay outdoors in strong sunlight for a long time, you need to use high-power sunscreen to be safe.

Function 2 of liquid foundation: contouring and color matching

In addition to the isolation effect, many liquid foundations now also add color-correcting particles such as light skin color, soft white, purple, pearlescent and so on to the skin. Faced with liquid foundations of various colors, some people often mistakenly believe that their functions are the same. As long as they are applied to the face, any color of liquid foundation can be used. There is little or no difference at all. Some people even think that cosmetics companies come up with so many colors to make their products look good and sell better. In fact, different colors of liquid foundation are very different. You need to choose according to different skin types to achieve better results. Therefore, the editor reminds everyone that when choosing the color of liquid foundation, it is best to choose according to your own needs, so that it can better help you contour and tone, and create perfect skin.

Function 3 of liquid foundation: anti-radiation and anti-aging

Have you ever calculated how much time you spend in front of a computer or TV screen a day? Whether it’s the copy machine in the office or the microwave oven at home, etc., you will slowly find that your skin becomes dry and dull, with spots appearing, and even Dry lines can also be seen in the corners of the eyes. This is all caused by radiation produced by artificial light sources, monitor screens, etc., which can cause your skin to become dry and dehydrated, accelerating aging. In addition to the harm caused by computer radiation to the human body, the electrostatic effect of the computer screen will absorb a large amount of dust in the air.

Therefore, the editor recommends that when using a computer, our skin is in a very "dirty" environment. Applying liquid foundation before using the computer can reduce the damage to the skin caused by dust. Because the ingredients of most foundation products contain rich antioxidant factors and high concentrations of nutritional and moisturizing ingredients, such as green tea ingredients, pure vitamin E, etc., they can effectively prevent premature aging of the skin and make the skin look younger with light care. At the same time, it has complete protection, making the skin safe and relaxed when facing the computer.

Function 4 of liquid foundation: effectively help the skin form a protective screen

Women who love beauty will wear "fine makeup" every day to show off, but this will directly cause the skin to become dull and lack healthy luster, causing the skin to become loose and prone to acne. Therefore, the editor recommends using a barrier cream before applying makeup to provide a clean and gentle environment for the skin, forming a defense "front line" against external aggression. In fact, barrier cream is an important step to protect makeup and skin.

If you apply foundation without using a base cream, the foundation will block the pores and damage the skin, and it will also easily cause the foundation to fall off. When choosing a barrier cream, you must make sure it is hydrophilic (that is, the ingredients of the barrier cream contain more water than oil), so that the makeup can be truly isolated and last long. But don't think that as long as you apply makeup cream, everything will be OK. If you don't remove makeup and cleanse carefully, your skin will also suffer misfortune. The function of liquid foundation is to protect the skin from external stimulation on the outermost layer of the skin.

The role of foundation

1. Improve skin color. It adds youthful, healthy color to the face while covering uneven pigmentation and minor blemishes on the face.

2. Protect the skin. After applying foundation, cosmetics do not come into direct contact with the skin. Foundation can also prevent external dust from entering the pores.

3. Adjust skin properties. Plays the role of skin care and moisturizing. Increase the skin's resistance to wind, frost, rain, snow and sun exposure, and can help oily skin reduce secretions.

4. Dark foundation can be applied to sunken areas on the face, such as the bridge of the nose, eye sockets, cheeks, etc. A bright foundation can be applied to the raised areas of the face. Through the contrast between light and dark, the three-dimensional effect of the face is enhanced.

The difference between liquid foundation and foundation cream

Nowadays, many women like to use barrier cream, but they don’t know much about what barrier cream is like and what role it plays. Speaking of isolation cream, we have to talk about its origin first. In fact, the first isolation cream product to appear in China was the isolation cream launched by Pond's. The slogan proposed at that time was "Isolate ultraviolet rays, isolate dirty air, isolate makeup." These three functions have also become the common slogans of other isolation creams in the future, and even in the minds of many consumers, these are also the basic functions of isolation creams. However, that sunscreen at that time was essentially just a sunscreen with a low SPF value. However, this ordinary sunscreen became unexpectedly popular after changing the category of sunscreen, so there were more and more sunscreens later. Frost appears.

The difference between liquid foundation and isolation cream is that isolation cream does have an isolation effect on ultraviolet rays, and its essence is sun protection!!! The sunscreen used in isolation cream is the same as that used in sunscreen, and is usually divided into organic sunscreen and physical sunscreen. Two categories. Organic sunscreens interact with ultraviolet rays to change the wavelength of ultraviolet rays, turning ultraviolet rays that are originally harmful to the skin into harmless ones; physical sunscreens (titanium dioxide, zinc dioxide, etc.) mainly rely on the principle of refraction to block ultraviolet rays. From this perspective, barrier cream and sunscreen are the same thing.

The protection of computer radiation is also the slogan of many isolation creams nowadays, but this is difficult to do based on the current technology. Most of the computer radiation is low-frequency radiation, with a wavelength of about 6.5cm, while isolation cream and sunscreen mainly target ultraviolet rays with a wavelength of 0.01-0.40 microns. It can be seen that isolation frost has no effect on computer radiation at all. In addition to the harm caused by computer radiation to the human body, the electrostatic effect of the computer screen will absorb a large amount of dust in the air. When using computers, our skin is in a very "dirty" environment. As for dust protection, ordinary creams and lotions can do it. Therefore, girls who often use computers do not have to use isolation cream. It is more economical to wash their faces after using the computer to wash away some dust.

The difference between liquid foundation and isolation cream has different functions.

Isolation cream is used after cleansing the skin before applying makeup. Its function is to protect the skin from makeup and external pollution. I think if you want to put on makeup, you must use a base cream. This is essential. Some isolation creams are purple or green. In addition to the isolation effect, they can also modify the skin tone.

I don’t need to say more about the role of liquid foundation. It can make the skin look smooth and even. But if you are doing daily makeup, and your skin does not have any freckles or the like, you can apply foundation or loose powder right after using the base cream (this is what I do), but you don’t need to apply liquid foundation anymore, which will make your makeup look unsightly. It will be so heavy (unless you are very good at applying makeup!)

The order is to use base cream first and then liquid foundation.

The difference between liquid foundation and isolation cream is that isolation cream is a kind of skin care product, which is used to isolate ultraviolet rays, makeup, radiation, etc. It should be used after using face cream. It can only be used during the day and not at night, while liquid foundation is a kind of makeup. It is used after using the isolation cream. It is mainly used to cover blemishes and improve skin tone. They are two different things. However, liquid foundation also has an isolation effect, but be sure to use the isolation cream before use, so as not to damage the skin.
