The modern market of cosmetology offersa huge range of tonal creams of different shades and species. So, for example, one of the most popular brands to date is the Vichy foundation.

Many women are afraid of the effect of the mask, that is, that the presence of a foundation on the face will be noticeable to others. However, the composition and quality of modern means, such as Vichy foundation, left this error far in the past. The main thing is to choose the right cream and carefully. For this purpose, experts recommend adhering to only a few simple rules.
First of all, a foundation shouldmatch the type of skin. If the skin of the face is dry, then preference should be given to those foundation creams, which in their composition have moisturizing components. Their advantage is the insignificant content of coloring pigments, which after application to the skin of the face do not accumulate in the wrinkles, and therefore do not emphasize them. Also, with dry skin, you can mix moisturizing cream and Vichy foundation in a 1: 1 ratio. It will give the skin freshness and at the same time will not add extra shine. As you know, oily skin in general makes it difficult to use any cosmetic. But, fortunately, today a special line of foundation creams has been developed to help combat this problem. The fact is that they do not contain oils, and their particles can absorb excess fat. After using such products, an unpleasant shine disappears due to a slight drying of the oily skin. Mixed type of facial skin suggests correct application of foundation. So, it is not recommended to apply it on the entire face, it is advisable to use two tonal creams, one of which will match the skin color, and the other will be slightly darker. The first is applied from above, and the second - to the cheekbones and nose. Problem skin also requires special attention. It is best to use a "Vichy" foundation for problem skin. It perfectly masks minor defects and smooths the complexion. The cream has a light texture that allows the skin to breathe, so it does not clog pores and does not cause the appearance of new acne, acne, etc.
The next step in choosing a tonal toolshould be the choice of shade. Choosing a "Vichy" foundation, you need to put a little on the back of your wrist, just below your thumb. In this case, it is desirable to avoid pink and too light shades, which are unnatural to look on any skin.
In order to prepare the skin for applicationit is necessary to clean it and restore the natural balance of moisture. Do this best with a low-fat moisturizer that is completely absorbed into the skin.
Directly for application of tonal meanscosmetologists recommend using not traditional sponge, but your own fingers. Due to the heat generated by them, the foundation is shaded more naturally, with a thin layer. At the same time, the amount of cream is selected taking into account individual characteristics and, on average, leaves 3-4 drops. The application should be made in a circular motion from the center along the massage lines.
After the foundation is completely dispensed, the face needs to be slightly powdered. To do this, it is better to choose friable powder of a transparent shade.
Of course, before buying one or the othercosmetic, including a foundation of a well-known brand, most women try to learn about it as much as possible in advance. In this case, the "Vichy" foundation is mostly positive. In this case, do not forget about the individual intolerance of the components. Sometimes even the most expensive foundation can be trivial "not to go."
