The Best Fluffy Pancakes recipe you will fall in love with. Full of tips and tricks to help you make the best pancakes.
There is nothing worse than spending time on your makeup in the morning and watching it fade by the afternoon. Whether it is foundation melting, blush disappearing, or your concealer creasing keeping makeup fresh all day can feel impossible. Here is how to make your Makeup last all day.
1. Start with Clean, Hydrated Skin
Makeup sits best on balanced skin. If your face is dry or oily before you start, makeup won’t grip properly.
Tip: Wash your face with a gentle cleanser, then use a lightweight moisturizer. Let it absorb for a few minutes before applying makeup. (If you dont wait it will change your foundation formula). Hydrated skin holds product better and gives you that natural, healthy glow. Never skip this step.
2. Use a Primer That Fits Your Skin Type
Primer is like double-sided tape for your makeup, it helps everything stay in place.
If you have oily skin, Try a mattifying primer that controls shine.
If you have dry skin, Go for a hydrating or illuminating primer for smoother blending.
Usually i use both, mattifying primer for my forehead and nose. Hydrating primer is for my all face.
A thin layer is enough too much primer can make foundation slide instead of stick.
3. Choose Lightweight, Long Wear Products
Heavy foundations or thick creams tend to move around during the day. Instead of this, use lightweight, buildable formulas like Dior Face and Body Foundation or Armani Luminous Silk. They feel thin on the skin but last beautifully. They are also waterproof. If you only need coverage in small areas, skip foundation completely and just use concealer where needed. This keeps your base looking fresh and prevents creasing.
4. Set with Powder
Powder is key to locking everything in place. But too much can make your skin look dry or cakey.
Tip: Use a soft brush and apply a tiny amount of translucent powder only where you get oily, usually the T zone or under the eyes. This keeps your makeup long lasting without losing your natural glow.
5. Layer Your Cream and Powder Products
One of the best tricks for lasting color: apply cream blush or bronzer first, then lightly top it with a matching powder blush or bronzer.
This layering technique locks in pigment and helps it stay put all day. Even if your skin gets a little warm or shiny later. Best setting powders i tested so far,
Nars Crystal Powder,
Dior Radiant Blurring Effect Powder,
Givenchy Prisme Libre Loose Powder.
6. Finish with Setting Spray
Setting spray is the final step that seals everything together. It helps your makeup melt beautifully into the skin and prevents fading. Best setting sprays,

Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray,
Milani Make It Last Setting Spray.
