Things you need: 

  •  The guilty dark foundation of course
  • Moisturiser/ day cream of choice

How to go about it: 

Step 1: Take a few drops of your liquid foundation on the back of your hand. Make sure that your hands are clean.

Step 2: Now simply add a pea-sized amount of moisturiser to it and mix it well with the foundation. This will lighten the colour of it as well as keep your skin hydrated.

Step 3: If it looks similar to your skin tone and then and apply all over your face and neck. Blend it using a foundation brush or beauty blender.

Step 4: If the moisturiser still looks dark, then go ahead and add some more moisturiser to lighten it further to get the same shade as your skin tone.
