Why do people wear foundation?

Firstly, foundation evens out skin colour and adds radiance to your complexion. Secondly, large pores can be made to look smaller. Skin blemishes can also be made to look less noticeable. Also foundation acts as a base for the rest of your make up. In addition, it is also a barrier against pollution and toxins in the environment.

You must always remember to moisturise before you put on your makeup and be careful to buy a shade that matches your skin tone. It maybe tempting to buy a shade darker to make yourself look tanned or lighter but don’t. You will just end up looking very unnatural. In other words, foundation is there to compliment and enhance your appearance not change it. A good cleansing routine including regular exfoliation is essential if you are a regular foundation wearer. This is to stop any skin problems such as spots caused by clogged pores.

The History of Foundation

The ancient Greeks and Romans were among the first to use foundation. However, their version comprised mostly of white lead or chalk. This was also popular during the Elizabethan era in England.

Foundation changed in 1914, when Max Factor introduced pancake makeup. Since then, the number of foundation formulations and shades has grown massively. As mentioned above, foundation now enhances your natural skin tone as well as having healthier ingredients.
