Floating powder when wearing makeup can be a real headache, but don't worry, it can be quickly remedied and prevented with these methods:
---
* * 1. Emergency remediation after floating powder * *
1. * * Absorbing oil and replenishing water * *
-First, gently press the oil-discharging part with oil-absorbing paper, and don't rub hard.
-Spray a layer of moisturizing spray (20 cm away from the face), gently press away the floating powder with a paper towel, then apply a small amount of moisturizing milk/makeup primer, and then add foundation or powder after absorption.
2. * * Topical wet compress * *
-If the floating powder is serious, soak a cotton pad with lotion, apply it to the floating powder for 30 seconds, soften the cuticles, gently wipe it, and then apply a thin layer of foundation.
3. * * Tool Adjustment * *
-Press the floating powder area with a moist beauty egg to make the base makeup fit again.
-When replenishing powder, choose fine loose powder, and pat it with a puff instead of applying it.

* * 2. Fundamental prevention of floating powder * *
1. * * Streamlined skincare before makeup * *
-Avoid superimposing too many skin care products. Use refreshing water emulsion + sunscreen for oily skin, and add 1 drop of skin care oil for dry skin.
-Pre-makeup milk is used in zones: oil control for T zone and moisturizing for cheeks.
2. * * Optimization of base makeup technique * *
-Apply a small amount of foundation to the face many times, and quickly pat it off with a beauty egg (avoid dragging).
-The easy-to-stuck powder parts (nose, under the eyes) are brought with residual powder, or concealer is directly used instead of heavy foundation.
3. * * Makeup fixing skills * *
-Oily skin: After pressing the loose powder, use the makeup fixing spray "X" to fix the makeup.
-Dry skin: Spray the beauty egg with makeup setting spray, then press the foundation, and finally sweep the transparent loose powder.
4. * * Product suitability check * *
-Avoid foundation containing glycerin and mineral oil for oily skin, and choose "water-based formula" or long-lasting makeup (such as Estee Lauder DW).
-Avoid pure matte foundation for dry skin, and choose one with moisturizing ingredients (such as adding hyaluronic acid and squalane).

* * III. Long-term improvement suggestions * *
-* * Gentle exfoliation 1-2 times a week * * (enzymes for sensitive skin) to avoid floating powder caused by the accumulation of old dead cutin.
-* * First aid mask before makeup * *: When the powder floats frequently, apply a moisturizing mask for 5 minutes before applying makeup (gel is recommended to avoid excessive hydration).
-* * Adjust cosmetics in seasons * *: Use moisturizing foundation in autumn and winter, and switch to oil control foundation in summer, so as to avoid "one bottle of foundation for the whole year".
---
* * 4. Common misunderstandings * *
- ❌ Make up the powder directly after floating the powder: it will get thicker and thicker, like "pasting the wall".
- ❌ Apply the mask for too long before makeup: More than 15 minutes will make the skin fragile and easy to take off makeup.
- ❌ Apply loose powder on the whole face thickness: it is easy to mask the face, and you can fix the makeup partially (eyelids, nose, chin).
---
* * Summary * *: Floating powder is mostly "incompatible" between skin and base makeup. During first aid, clean up the floating powder + replenish water, and then repair it locally; Long-term adjustments need to be made from three aspects: skin care, product selection and techniques. Remember, the ultimate secret to base makeup is-light, fit, and moderate! ✨
