These are something I've been meaning to tell you guys for a while. They're not crucial, in the same way you need to eat food at least once a week to stay alive, but they sure do make a whopping great difference to how your makeup sits for the day.
Here they are:
Leave a minute in between applying your moisturiser and your primer. (Allows your moisturisers ingredients to sink in and do their thing before you slap on a layer of silicon. And do you like how I assume you all wear primer? That's cause I believe in you guys and your skillfull know-how and amazing, superadvanced understanding and appreciation of cosmetics.)
Leave a minute in between applying your eye cream and your under-eye concealer. (This allows it to sink in fully so that your concealer doesn't merge with the eyecream and within an hour, either migrate up into your eye (dude! groooooss) or crepe (little lines) with the overload of being put onto a surface that wasn't yet fully dry.
Leave a minute in between applying your primer and your foundation. (Allows the silicon to create a full barrier, and settle into all the little cracks of your face, before you put on your foundation.)
Leave a minute in between applying your foundation and your powder blush or bronzer. (This allows your foundation to dry properly, so that your powder products don't get stuck on the first piece of face you swipe the brush onto, or fail to blend and sit on top of your skin, rather than blending seamlessly into it.)
I use the lags between to do fun things like curling eyelashes and brushing teeth and knitting small jumpers for baby possums.
