Step 1: You will need

所需材料

moisturiser

爽肤水

a compact powder foundation to match your skin tone - they usually come in light, medium and dark shades

与你的脸部气色相符的小粉盒

an applicator sponge

一只涂粉海绵

some soapy water

些许肥皂水

Step 2: Moisturise

爽肤水

First, apply moisturiser to your whole face and wait a few seconds to allow it to be absorbed into your skin. This will eliminate dry patches, giving your skin a more even surface, allowing you to achieve a more even coverage of foundation.

向脸部涂水并稍等片刻，让脸部吸收水分，这样能去除脸部干燥并且让皮肤更光滑，也就有可能画出更细腻柔顺的粉底

Step 3: Choose the right shade

选择色度

Always try on make-up in natural daylight to properly judge it's true colour. Test different shades of powder on your jaw line to find the one that matches your skin tone. Start with a darker shade and work up to a lighter one.

要始终在自然光照条件下化妆，以保证所的效果最佳。在腮上尝试不同的色度找到一个最适合你的为止，可以从相对较暗的一种开始

Step 4: Use a make-up sponge

化妆绵

Make-up sponges last longer than those provided with powder compacts and are better for blending. Wash them occasionally in water and liquid soap to get rid of bacteria and prevent spreading it around your skin.

化妆棉比粉盒中自带的使用寿命更长，调和的时候也更好用。偶尔用水和肥皂清洗，防止细菌传播，影响健康。

Step 5: Apply the powder

使用脂粉

Put some powder on the sponge and dab it around the centre of your face. Blend the powder outwards using gentle stroke.

用化妆棉将脂粉涂在脸部，轻轻拂拭使粉均匀.

Step 6: Coverage

范围

The cheeks and the areas around the nose and under the eyes are prone to dark shadows and broken blood vessels. These will need the most coverage. You can use less around the hairline and at the ears.

脸颊、鼻子周围和眼睛下面的区域由于很容易产生色素沉淀，需要涂全部或者大部分，发线和耳朵附近只需少量即可

Step 7: Blend

调匀

Blend the foundation as you apply it paying particular attention at the hairline, jaw line, ears and eyebrows.

将粉底调匀时尤其需要注意发线，下颌线、耳朵和眉毛部位

Retouch as needed. You can use powder foundation to alleviate any shine that builds up.

如果需要，可以修整一番，使用粉底中和明亮的部分
