What is Facial Masking?

This is a condition that can affect bronze/ ebony skin tones. This means the skin may be darker in the outer edges of the face and lighter in the interior of the face.
To correct this it will take two shades of foundation.

First step: you will have to do a stripe test to find out the two shades of foundation that when applied to your face it will provide a more even skin tone.
To conduct a stripe test,it must be in a natural light test from your jaw down onto your neck because you want to match your neck. The shade that matches your neck is the right shade for you.

Second step: Apply the lighter shade of foundation to the darker areas on your face.

Third step: Apply the darker shade of foundation to the darker areas on your face.

Fourth step: Apply your correct shade of foundation and it will make your skin look even and flawless.
Thereafter set the foundation with the right shade of powder.
