Fresh, flawless makeup is all in the details. To get it right, avoid the terrible too's: too much texture, color and too many difficult angles.

In your daily quest for ideal makeup, keep it soft and easy. Your foundation and concealer should be so well blended, people will be wondering if that flawless skin is naturally yours.

Smooth the surface. You can't have a flawless finish with a rough complexion, so take care of your skin's texture.

Make exfoliation part of your routine. Meet your match. If the undertones in your foundation aren't right, the look won't be either. Most of us fall into the yellow-undertone category.

Look at your foundation color in natural light to get the best match. It should blend seamlessly into your skin. To get maximum results from your foundation, make sure it complements your skin type. Dry skin calls for rich, creamy formulations, while oilier skin types should use oil-free formulas.
