In this blog I will discuss few of the many different types of foundations that are available in stores from different brands. My blog on “How to pick the right foundation for your skin” which I posted a while ago was quite appreciated by all of you. Many thanks to my Instagram and Twitter followers for such spectacular response. This blog is kind of a continuation of the earlier one but it focuses more on the skin types and textures you desire. I briefly discussed in the earlier blog that there are most commonly three types of skins one may naturally possess, that are, dry, oily and combination. Depending upon these factors all good make-up brands offer different types of foundations like powder foundation, liquid foundation, cream foundation and mousse. Powder foundations give a light coverage and are best for school / college going teen-aged girls who do not require very heavy make-up and can carry it in their bags for little touch up whenever they need. It is not very ideal ...

I recently tried out Fair & Lovely’s new BB cream. Found a very lovely and subtle effect on a combination skin-type like mine. I think it is perfect for younger and middle-aged women, who are either college going or work in an office and desire a skin that looks fair, fresh and glowing for longer hours. Its SPF 15 protects skin from damaging sun rays, covers pigmented areas like dark circles under the eyes and spots etc. The cream also gives a wonderful make-up finish with a pinkish glow desired by most girls. Fair & Lovely’s BB cream is ideal for situations when you have someone wanting to see you suddenly, as it takes lesser time than a foundation to set on your skin. You can apply it like any cream and here you are, ready to shine like a star! I never go out without applying this magical cream now and always carry it in my bag. You can buy it too and give your skin a wonderful glowing appeal.
