Before you build a base for moisturizer, you need to clean your face well. You can simply wash your face with cold water or use a gentle face wash.

Moisturize

Use A Primer

Once you have moisturized the skin, use a primer that looks great on skin. After applying the moisturizer, wait for 10 minutes so that it gets deeply into the skin and does not get mixed with the primer. Now, apply a primer. It will make your skin smooth and even for foundation application.
