I have a friend who always wears foundation too light and too much. Like it flakes off and she tries to add more powder to fix it. The other night I swear it looked like she had a moustache.

How do I tell her without hurting her feelings?

She is super sensitive about it.( she won't leave her house until she is satisfied with her face, about 1-2 hrs)

Maybe go to MAC or something for a consultation for you and since she's there why not her too. It's always helpful especially as you are more or less tan for different seasons.

Just use the "this works for me so it will work for you" method: say something about always having an issue with your makeup being cakey. Tell her how you fix it and ask her if she's ever tried it...? This could help you come off as more friendly and less criticizing. Hope this helped.

Maybe you could give eachother a "makeover" and do her foundation in the right shade and apply the right amount. Hopefully she will see the difference and it won't hurt her feelings as your both doing eachothers make up. You could be like you look this look really suits you. Going to mac or somewhere is a great idea. Good luck.

Why beat around the bush about it. If you are good friends simply ask to show her how to blend it passed her jaw line. You can tell how much you love her look but if you can help with her blending. Then talk her through the process and helping her to see the difference. I would sure want one of my "friends" to bring it to my attention. Its an easy fix and a lot like having that big green peice of spinach in your teeth, I would be more upset if they let me walk around like that. Be a real friend and help her, show her. Believe me she will love you for it!!

You should tell here let's take a pic...oh look your face looks to light form your body...maybe you should go a shade darker or blend it down? I wouldn't want any 1 to point it out I rather tell you! That's what friends are for to help ;)
