How to Use:
- Using a makeup sponge, spread a thin layer of foundation on your face using a stroking motion.
- Even out the foundation by patting it with the makeup sponge.
- Set creme makeup with Ben Nye Luxury or Classic Powders. (Grab both sides of the puff and rub them together using a back and forth rubbing pattern. When almost all of your powder seems to have disappeared into the powder puff, you are ready to begin.) Pat the filled powder puff lightly onto the creme makeup until all the makeup is set.
- Dust off the excess powder with a powder brush and use a slightly damp cloth to remove extra powder that might dull colors.
- Crème foundations can be removed with a gentle makeup remover like Ben Nye Quick Cleanse.
