Hi, I'm Kendra Richards Professional Makeup Artist. Today, I'm going to give you a couple of tips for foundation for oily skin. So I'm going to demonstrate on Javiana how to use a liquid oil free foundation to really address oily skin in the most flawless way to get longevity throughout the day that you'd like without really looking overly made up. Today, I'm going to use Tient Idole Ultra 24 Hour by Lancome in Suede 14. Put just a slight bit onto my hand right there and I'm going to get a foundation brush and just tap a very light little bit onto it. I'm going to start with the center of her face and move out cause what I'd really like to do is use the least amount of foundation necessary to even out Javiana's skin color. I'd like to even out Javiana's skin tone with this foundation but not cover up too much. Often the center of the face is a little lighter than the outer edges so I like to take the foundation and feather it out like this just lightly with the foundation brush which helps really give a natural finish and then there's this sort of seamless quality to the way it blends in with the darker parts of her face. It's the most natural look and with oily skin in particular you don't want to overload the skin with too much foundation, it becomes a little bit too much so you can really get away with less foundation but it's about the blending and if you can see this I'm really using just a slight bit of foundation and just I continue to move the brush over the face evening that skin tone out. I mean Javiana is just so beautiful, the thing that I think is so important is to make sure that you do blend and what I love about this foundation is that it is so blendable. Javiana's foundation has been evened out now with just a slight bit of foundation looks really natural. I blended it all around the edges so that you just don't see the, the skin verses the foundation and then just to finish it off to make sure that it really stays put throughout the day I'm just going to show you a little bit of powder right around the T-zone oily areas. You can use a makeup sponge like this just to help set it in around the nose, should be right up at the top of the nose. This is the area of the face that if you're going to get oily generally this is where you get oily and a little bit on the chin here. This is called your T-zone and that's it. Okay, there you go, these are a couple of foundation tips for oily skin. I'm Kendra Richards, thanks for watching.
