best way to prepare your skin before makeup

Hey there!! I'll introduce myself to you as Ojal. This is my first blogpost ever I hope you like. Let's not waste time and start with the topic!!

I would be telling about skin prep to do before makeup as it is most important thing. Your makeup depends on what kind of skin prep you do. Your methodology should be proper for a perfect makeup look. Skin preparation combines of CTDMP that is C - clenser T - toner 
D - disinfect M - moisturizer P - primer
The important thing is that you have to play with these products as according to the skin the client has.

Let's begin with cleanser
Cleanser is used before makeup so that you get rid of dirt, oil and pollution from your skin. And it is also used to remove makeup offcourse.
Cleanser consists of 5 things
✓ wet wipes
✓ cleansing milk
✓ medicated moisturizer
✓ face wash
✓ baby oil. [To remove makeup only]

Next is our toner, it is used for oily part of the skin
You can use rose water OR tonic [which is a product from krylon] most importantly they both give same results. We use toner only on the 'T' zone of the face. That is because it is the most oilest part of face. If you see oil on cheeks you can even add your toner there.
Ok so toner is used for 4 reasons those are,
• to control pH balance
• to minimize extra oil from skin
• tighten your skin
• refreshen your pores

And if tonic
Vitamin A - is for scares, pimples, marks.
Vitamin C - brightens your skin.
Vitamin E - is a colagen booster for wrinkles and lines.

We move towards disinfect our third step not a big topic.
Disinfect is used to protect your skin and used for skin of pimples.
You can apply it on your entire face except your eyelids and under eye part. Faceclin and Proshield are two products used the most by people.

Moving forward to moisturizer
Moisturizer is ofcourse used to moisturize your skin but it smoothens your skin for foundation and concealer and even helps makeup to stay longer. As well it keeps your skin hydrated under the makeup. I use cetaphil as my moisturizer as it is actually nice and it suits for all skin types be it dry or sensitive

Next is primer. Primer is of two types silicon base and illuminating primer.
Silicon base - blends / smoothens makeup                                on  your skin.             
                          
                       - forms a shield inbetween your 
                        skin and layer of makeup.
                      - longlasts your makeup
                      - primer reduces wrinkles and                                  lines on face
                         
Illuminating primer is used for glow and shine used for satin and glossy look.

Now there's a myth that primer helps in disappearing pores but it definitely reduces them and smoothens your skin.

For pores one can use :
PORE FILLER
•NYX pore filler
•Tart pore filler
These are the pore fillersused to fill pores. You can even use primer but the thing is you'll have to use them before your moisturizer that means you'll be using primer twice.

Now here's an important part
BRUSHES TO USE
Flat brush - for only application/ gives maximum coverage.
Round brush - for blending / gives minimum
                                                   coverage
And use your fingers for dry and flaky skin because of warmth of your fingers.

Question for the post.. Which products do you prefer for CTDMP??
