a lot of women i see with foundation or with another type of foundation but i have skin that breaks out easy so do i really need it or can i just use the bronzer and blush???
It really depends on how even your skin tone is. If you are happy with it, then it should be fine! Foundation is for evening the skin tone and creating a base for your makeup, so foundation is ideal. But again, it depends on how your skin is.... Hope this helps :)
Nobody needs* anything. If you're content with bronzer and blush, then just use bronzer and blush. I don't care for foundation but I like something to even out my skintone, so I use tinted moisturizer instead. But a long time ago, I only used concealer and translucent powder. I was happy with that.
Nope. It's really just for evening your skin. If you don't want to use it you totally don't have to. If you're interested in it try out some oil-free water based foundation and tinted moisturizer formulas. They're better for sensitive skin
Obviously not, I don't, even though I have acne scarring, I personally don't like to wear foundation i'd much rather let my skin breathe otherwise it tend to break out, now if I have a photoshoot planned of if I'm going to a special event like a wedding for exemple I will probably wear foundation to even out my skin and look better on those pictures, but otherwise I don't :) Do whatever you feel confident doing .
It's a matter of preference...I prefer foundation because I like for my skin to be evened out. I like medium coverage. It's not that anything is wrong with my skin, I just prefer a more polished look and that's what foundation can give you. Like some of the other girls said, if you're iffy about foundation, have a go at a good tinted moisturizer.
I personally never wear foundation, simply because I don't like the look or feel of it. I don't think it matters if you wear it or not, do whatever makes you feel pretty :)
You don't need foundation - a blush and bronzer are perfectly fine to where. I would still wear a moisturizer and face primer just to prolong the life of the blush and bronzer.
You don't ~have~ to do anything you don't want to! I prefer a full face of foundation because I like the way it evens out my skin tone. But you can always do concealer/powder/bronzer/whatever you want. As long as you're happy! I find in the summer months that I don't wear as much makeup, either. So I might be in the same boat with you right now!
it honestly depends on your confidence, if you feel like you don't need it then you don't. its all your personal preference and what you feel comfortable and confident with! :)
I agree you don't need to use foundation at all. Just spot conceal if there is a blemish or imperfection that you want to cover.
I love the Makeup Forever Concealer Pencil. It's double ended with two different shades and so easy to use. I always carry it with me.
