Hi. When I watch YouTube tutorials they always have their foundation on perfect and their skin looks so flawless. How do I achieve this look because every time I've tried it looks nothing like it.

They typically wear full coverage foundation. What I have found that helps is to have a good skin regimen that works for your skin type, color corrector, full coverage foundation and a concealer with a nice coverage.

I agree with Meg, the camera can make everything look better plus most of those beauty gurus film with studio lighting which can also be very forgiving and a lot of them already have great skin to begin with.
Moisturize and prime, making sure each product has a chance to skin before moving on. With foundation use a little bit at a time and build up if/where you need to otherwise it's not going to blend as well and can end up looking cakey. Buffing motions will really push the foundation into the skin so it looks more natural but you'll lose some coverage and stippling/patting motion will also push the foundation into the skin just not as natural looking (in my opinion) but you'll get the most coverage.

@Kayleigh never underestimate the power of amazing lighting and the camera to make mediocre skin look flawless, so don't beat yourself up about about YouTube women. I'm sure some have good skin, but many have pretty average to not so good so great skills, lighting and the camera is pretty powerful.

What looks good on camera often doesn't look good in real life. Agree with the other comments- YT'rs invest a lot in their lighting and cameras. A lot of them wear a lot of full coverage foundation and I'm not sure how that would look in natural daylight. It's like comparing yourself to a photo in a magazine. I prefer to focus on my skincare so I don't need such full coverage foundation. I'm 41 and heavy makeup ages me. Don't compare yourself to people that have to present a perfect look to make a living. Just embrace your own beauty :)

Yeah I wouldn't worry to much- I also struggle with this problem- but great lighting and in camera things look so much better!! If they recommend products it might be worth trying then but I wouldn't get your expectations up too high because it's not how it actually looks in really life. Your beautiful love:) ♡

Camera+lighting+in-video filtering=you look great on YouTube.
None of them look that good in person; guaranteed.
