Minimizing your makeup

We all know that makeup doesn't help your skin. I know you can find some with properties that are supposed to soothe the skin in someway, but lets be honest, no makeup is better than beneficial makeup...if you get my jist. 

Here are 5 ways to minimize your makeup, but still look flawless...it's a win-win:
1. Mix your foundation with a moisturiser - this will reduce the amount of foundation you use but still give you coverage, you can then cover the rest with concealer as usual. 

2. Cut out your foundation completely - before you dismiss this one entirely, here me out. You may be surprised that you can still get coverage with just concealer. You can build up the coverage, just make sure it doesn't look cakey! 

3. Don't put makeup all over your face - if you don't have acne all over you face, try minimizing the areas you use you foundation and concealer on your face.  

4. Switch your foundation for a BB cream or tinted moisturiser - a tinted moisturiser may not give as much coverage, but if you still want to wear something all over your face for more coverage try an tinted moisturiser of BB cream instead. BB creams often have the same amount of coverage as foundations, so if you don't want to lose out on coverage, try one, 

5. Don't wear makeup all the time - it's ok not to have a full face of makeup everyday. You don't have to hide every spot all the time, everybody gets them, let your skin breath as often as possible.
