How to Apply Cream Foundation : MAC Mineralize SPF 15 Foundation
My MAC Mineralize Foundation is soon getting over so I thought I’d do this tutorial before that. And please ignore my wet hair. 😛

Bare Face ! Hi! 🙂 Moisturize your skin, apply sunscreen and if required, primer. I have not applied primer as of now.

Scoop some cream foundation with an ice cream spoon. Make sure that you have sanitized the spoon before using it. I generally us a hand sanitizer or MAC brush cleanser for clean the spoon. This ice cream spoon tip was given by a friend. She is not with me any more but anyway. 🙂


Dot the cream foundation all over your face and neck with your finger tips You may leave some foundation on the spoon for later coverage etc. Cream foundation can be doubled up as a concealer.
Now damp a foundation brush with rose water or MAC Fix + Spray. The brush is Sigma F 80, which is my HG brush for all foundations. If you don’t have this, a regular damp foundation brush would also do. You can also use a damp sponge but I feel a lot of foundation gets wasted when you use a sponge.

Start blending the foundation from the center of your face toward hair line and jawline. Don’t forget your neck. Blend everything downward and outward.

Blend until everything gets evened out.

Now take a clean tissue and just pat it on your face. This will get rid of any excess foundation.Foundations can easily get transferred on your phone or clothes. Patting your face with a tissue would prevent that.

Conceal your blemishes and under eye circles.

Set your face with powder. Just pat the brush on your face than going round and round with a brush. This will help retain the texture of the foundation.

Apply blush.

And you are done. :))

Hope this helps. 🙂
Please don’t dip brushes in your cream foundation directly. It would contaminate your product.

BUMTOAD…that was a perfect tutorial….step-by-step…and I really didn’t know that you shouldn’t use your brush directly….I kind of use it with liquid foundations as if I am going to pain….eeks……BTW, RAds, I think this will look good for oily skin people also……I am we will look dewy and appealing :beauty: 😛 :beauty: :beauty: :beauty: :beauty: :beauty: :beauty:
yeah jomol, why not shell 1800 bucks on a foundation that is meant to be creamy and is meant for dry skin people. Fry some eggs on your face after that. :devil: :devil: :devil:
Like you dip the brush inside the bottle.. well do you use a foundation tub that the brush goes inside it. :X-P: :X-P: :X-P:

Rati, ur looking super cute :-* . btw do u first apply eye liner & lipstick & then the foundation??? 😛 I thought its the other way round. 😉
JOmol, never heard of this tip before. half ltr water & half ltr foundation??? I mean do u need to refrigerate it for storing???/
No I apply eye makeup first because if there is any fall out with the eye shadows, I can clean it up. then foundation and then lipstick. It’s just a lip balm on my lips. The maybelline tinted lip balm…:)
Oh!! Jomol was kidding :pain: :pain: :pain:
:rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: :rotfl: she was very specific about the water to be used :rotfl:

VG, Thank you. 🙂 I dont use foundation on regular days but I like to wear foundation on occasions. 😛
What makeup do u use on a regular day doll? :blush:
he he ..I just use a primer, some cream blush and MAC Skin finish natural. When I am not using a primer, just skin finish natural and powder blush. And oh! and teeny meeny concealer.
For eyes , it’s mostly neutrals. I love my browns and taupes. 🙂
Lips, anything that comes handy. Mostly lipsticks. But I am starting to like glosses as well.
Me tooooooooooo :-* !! Ohhhh,so sorryyyy Rati…sumhow i thot dat all d make up luks u wer givin..u do it on a daily basis!! :sick: :sick:
Ohhhhh..dat blush s frm venomous collection?!! :inlove: :inlove:
Can i tell u a truth? Me thinks pink/peach/coral blushes suits u better ! :struggle:
Thanks VG. But I do like to experiment so….:)))
Yeppp…ur xperiments r our doorways to glamour !! Keep it cumin dear :kissblow: !
One more thing..Whnnnnnnnnn r u givin swatches from MAC’s VENOMOUS VILLAINS Ratiiiii?!! Dat Carbon Intense black (Matte),
Wicked Ways Light nude with gold pearl gloss,d DUO eyeshadows…NOOO..actualyyy EVERYTHING frm d collection luks soooooo yummyyyyyyy! :devil: :devil: :devil:
Yeah Carbon is matte black. It looks quite crappy in swatches …for some reason but it is a nice eye shadow. 🙂
Hey Rati,
How else can we apply a cream blush…
if we use a Q tip cotton thing the cotton gets stuck to the blush…
how else can we do this….
Padmini, that has never happened with me. 🙁 May be you could check the quality of Q tips you are getting. You can take out the blush using the end of the spoon or may be pick generous amount with a brush, put some at the back of your hand and then work with it. 🙂
Thank you :-* Super tut 🙂 Btw, what blush is that in the pic?
Thank you, hope it helped. :)That blush is Darkly my dear from the venomous villain collection. If you can, do check it out. It’s such a gorgeous fall shade. Not only for my skin tone but for any skin tone. Especially this shade would rock on girls with ducky complexion. it has this hint of plum in it. 🙂 And it’s matte. :))
ducky ??????? :rotfl: :rotfl:
Thanks for the post..I am convinced to give this a try atleast next time 🙂
Oh, looks like a gorgeous shade 🙂 I am always in for matte blushes 🙂 I never picked up anything from that collection. Wonder if it’s still around ?:-)
aaah!! It is yet to be launched here in India. AM looking forward to it. :))
Jane…errrr…. 😐 😐 😐 😐 :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
Give try a blush or foundation??
The foundation ofcourse 🙂
aaah!!! Hope you like it. :))
that foundation does wonders for u na…hmm…i just admire the way u blend it..so perfectly done….wish I were u.. :-* :-*
Awww!!! You’d be able to blend it as well. Just damp your brush a little. 🙂

Now that I rock…I forgive you… :X-P: :X-P: :X-P: :X-P: :X-P: :X-P: :X-P: :X-P:
I am Ctrl C+ Ctrl V ing this tutorial..goinna take a print out and keep it :laugh: :chic: :chic: ..and thaank uu Rati..I really need more of such tutorials…I am such a sucker at applying foundation.. 🙁 🙁 🙁 ..I even donno whether I go wrong with the foundation or the setting powder-that often gives me white-edges ..can u suggest me a good setting powder (ok not the MAC one :-(( :-(( )
I think Lakme Radiant compact does a decent job. I have used it for two years..just stopped using it because I found other options. If you don’t want to use Lakme, you can even pick up Revlon’s compact, the regular one. 🙂
Are you using the right shade of foundation, that also matters.
Which foundation do you use? Jane gave a great review to Revlon Color stay foundation, you can try that as well.
Thanks rati, I am currently using the Revlon new complexion makeup and Maybelline matte mouse in honey beige..I think they come closest to my skin tone and also give a great finish..but in photographs..esp with flash..my face often looks tad overdone..u know ..white..actually :-(( 😥 😥 ..thats y I was considering buying this MAC foundation..since I have seen you using this so many times in tuts with great looks :-)) :-))
Hi Anuradha,
I think your face looks overdone because maybe your foundation has SPF in it. Apparently foundations with SPF protection in them show up white when photographed with a flash. I was told by a MAC MUA recently though that all MAC foundations have a filter which stops that whiteness from showing up when photographed! I was quite amazed as I didn’t know SPF foundations make your face white :-/
yeah SPF foundations do look whitish in photos.. 🙂
When I read the post I wanted to comment something but after reading all the comments I have temporary memory loss 😮 eek: :hypnotized: :hypnotized: :hypnotized:
:giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle: :giggle:
Likin the pink clip and clear clear skin Rati.Nice technique…me learning so much frm IMBB :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-* :-*
Thanks Sharon. 🙂
Is that the amount of foundation we need to scoop out?
Coz that looks a lot to me… :/
No Akshi, you can use as much as you want to – less, more depending on how much your skin requires. 🙂
I have used a little more than generally use…
cool yaa- the pink clip suits u so well 🙂
and u have grt skin texture… flawless.. tuchwood 😀
:hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :hugleft: :kissblow: :kissblow:
You look nice Rati……. but really, such a complicated procedure…..I use powder foundation….that’s so easy. But then I have oily skin 🙂
Monika, actually it’s not. It barely takes 2-3 minutes. 🙂
You may use tinted moisturizer as well. Can’t think of any right now, pond’s and biotique have TMs but then not for oily skin. Have heard enough bad reviews from people with oily skin. :(( wil tell you if I come across any…Oh! have given lakme invisible foundtaion a shot? That’s water based and feels light on skin.
:yes: :yes: thks for the post….it helps immensely :-* and i saw harry potter…yeah yeah yeah…loved it…though my hubby was all the time :quiet: :shutmouth: 😮 :laugh:
Oh wowie!!! :)) I also want to watch it… :-(( :-(( Your hubby doesnt like harry potter kya? 😛

Hi Rati,

Hi Priya,
The Foundation shade is NC 35
