You should put on your foundation first. That way, you can have an even skintone without missing your eyes. So if your wear a natural makeup choice on your eyes, it will blend better and give you a great completion. If you wear your concealer, put that on before you put on your foundation, and conceal user your eyes to brighten the eye color(:!! Hope it helped!

I say which ever works best for you. If you don't want to have to go back and fix fallout from eyeshadow then I would put your eye make up on first then foundation. If you don't mind fixing a lil bit of your foundation from the fallout then foundation first. It just depends on your preference.

For me it honestly depends. Usually I stick to basic makeup on my eyes so I'll do my foundation & concealer first. When I do use eyeshadow & I know that has a lot of fall out, I'll do my eyes first then foundation.

I like both methods. Yesterday I tried the eyes first then face but I used a dark shadow. I guess it depends on what kind of look you're going for.

It always depends on what type of eyeshadow you're applying first. If you're going for more of a simple, natural look, foundation can go on first. However if you're trying to achieve a darker, smokier color, there tends to be more noticeable fallout that's harder to clean up if you already have foundation on, so in those cases, it's best to apply the eyeshadow first, clean up any fallout with makeup remover, and then apply a foundation.

depends on the eyeshadow i decide to put on that day. if it's something with a lot of shimmer, or something really heavy like a really dark smokey eye i'll do eyes first. just so any type of fall out, i can clean up easier instead of ruining my face foundation. but for the most part, i'll wear my face makeup first and then eyes.

I don't use a liquid foundation but I use a bb cream and concealer then eye makeup and then I go back and do my blush bronzed and finishing powder to set my face :)

I personally like doing my eye makeup first so if there is any fallout I just use makeup remover and don't have to worry about my face makeup.

I do my face makeup first. Foundation/concealer/powder.

But I'm trying to get into the habit of doing my foundation/concealer, then my eyeshadow, THEN my powder. I find that fallout is easiest to get off before the liquids/creams are set. Still trying though >_<

I always put on my foundation first, so you know your skin tone before you put on your powder and eye-shadow ♥ It helps alot ♥

I like foundation first as it gives it time to adjust to the skin. You can use shadow shields under the yes, loose powder, tissues or do your eye concealer last before completing liner and lashes.

I often do it like Mario dedivanovic

You should apply foundation first, then put on your eye makeup and then touch up around your eye area with the foundation.

I do a lot of smoky eyes, so I typically do my dark eye make up first, and then I do foundation. If I were to get one fleck of dark eyeshadow on my cheek after doing my foundation.... I would have to take it all off and do it again.

I definitely put on my eye makeup first because I don't want to have fallout from eyeshadow under my eyes if I've already done my foundation!
