hi
I am new to here and have already picked up some fabulous tips and ideas. Though I love the glaming it up, my make up application is a bit haphazard. when using concealer I usually apply prior to the foundation, however I have read that it should be the o the other way about to get a flawless, which is correct.
thanks

Ideally do what you think works for you but i have always put my concealer on first. I find that if you put your concealer on top of foundation it doesn't stay on the face as long throughout the day

If you apply concealer first you're going to buff most it off during application of your foundation (and if you're not moving the product around on your face enough for this to happen, then I promise you you're not blending your foundation enough). You apply your base to even out the skintone and cover minor flaws, then concealer to any remaining flaws, blending the edges so it's seamless with your base. If you set everything with powder there's no reason it shouldn't last. You'll have better results and use much less product overall if you do it this way.
