Flour setting powder is applied by pressing it into the face with a dense brush or blending sponge and then dusting off the excess with a button brush.
Here's a breakdown of the process:
- Choose the Right Tool: Use a dense brush or a blending sponge (like a beauty sponge) to pick up the flour setting powder.
- Pick Up the Powder: Dip the brush or sponge into the flour setting powder.
- Press into the Face: Gently press the powder into the areas you want to set, such as under the eyes, around the nose, and on the forehead. This helps to bake the makeup and prevent creasing.
- Dust Off Excess: After letting the powder sit for a few minutes (baking), use a soft, fluffy brush (a "button brush" or powder brush) to dust away any excess powder.
Important Considerations:
- Dry Skin: If you have dry skin, use flour setting powder sparingly or consider alternative setting powders that are more hydrating.
