Compact and foundation?

Which is supposed to be used first? Compact and then liquid foundation or other way round? How should they be applied? I have an official dinner comming up ...Compact and foundation?
First , some people like to use the concealer if you absolutely have to use, which I don't recommend because the liquid foundation does the job of concealer, so after the liquid foundation, then you use the powder compact. DO NOT use the compact first then the foundation you will look very inappropriate, you can try it and see for yourself. If you have free time, go into the bathroom and play around with it to test it out before you go on that official dinner to learn how to put it on the way you like it.Compact and foundation?
Liquid foundation should be used first before the compact. With liquid u can pour a little bit in the back of your hand and mix it up there and apply a couple dots around your face [forehead, cheeks, chin, nose] with your fingers and blend with a wedge sponge or foundation brush. Don't apply too much foundation! Try to keep it natural looking. And then finish off with a little bit of the compact powder all over to let the make up set. I prefer dusting on the powder [mainly with loose powder] if you have a big blush brush!
well speaking that I have experiance In cosmetics. First you put concealer on (If you use It) then apply your liquid makeup using a foundation brush or pad. I never use my hands to smear In on my face because your rubbing the oils from your hands onto your face which Is not clean. Dont put to much liquid just a nice even thin layer. Then dust on your powder using a large brush or pad. Have fun!
first the liguid, then the compact powder, enjoy yrslf!
okay first your suppose to but the liguid on and then but the powder. you should but it on any flaws that you have do not but it all over your face becuase it will not look natual. add a little blush for flavor!
Try puritycosmetics.co.uk. It is really good!
I would only use a compact foundation for touch ups
Funny I should answer this considering I don't wear much makeup, but most experts recommend cleansing your face, applying a lightweight facial moisturizer, then the foundation. Start by dotting foundation on cheeks, chin, nose and forehead, smoothing with a damp cosmetic sponge and makign sure lines are smooth and even, well-blended. Use your fingertips to aid in the blending process-- body heat will help! If possible, check your application with a natural light source-- i.e, take a mirror with you to a sunny window. Watch your hairline and jawline, and make sure your neck doesn't stand out as a different color. Then lightly apply powder to set your look and prevent shine throughout the day/night.
