Sandwich Method Foundation Hack: Powder First for Longer Wear
The Sandwich Method every makeup lover needs to know. Powder first, then foundation = longer wear, blurred pores, smoother finish, and no more slipping and sliding in heat and humidity. This hack works beautifully on all skin types — even dry or mature skin over 40. Perfect for anyone whose foundation disappears by midday.
Who It's For
Anyone whose foundation breaks down, slides, or disappears by midday — especially in heat and humidity. Works across all skin types, including dry and mature skin over 40.
Why It Works
Laying a fine veil of setting powder before foundation creates a velvety grip layer that absorbs excess oil and blurs pores from underneath. Foundation then glides over a primed, matte-but-flexible canvas, locking in for hours of wear without sinking into texture or sliding off through the day.
