Hi, I'm Kaylin, and I'm a makeup artist. Today, I'm going to talk about how to choose the right shade of foundation for porcelain skin. It's important to remember that foundation for porcelain skin can be very difficult to find. Don't settle for a foundation that you know isn't perfect. There are two different tools that we are going to be using today. First is a concealer brush that you can use to test foundation shades. Second, you will need different foundation shades so you can compare. Let's get started. To test foundation shades, take each shade one by one and make a stripe on your lower jaw and your neck. Blend each shade in slightly so you can see how it looks when blended. The shade that disappears is the one that you want to use. Always remember to test your cosmetics in natural light, even if there's no natural light where your cosmetics are sold. You can always step outside. Thanks for watching.
