It doesn't matter whether you apply your foundation with a brush, a sponge, or your fingers, the important thing is that you blend, Anton says. "Blend down into the neck as well, as your neck is usually lighter than your face and you don't want any demarcation," she says.
Anton used Almay Smart Shade Mousse Makeup, $13.99, on Heather and applied it with a foundation brush (her preferred method). After that, she applied concealer under Heather's eyes with a concealer brush.

Blush
The finishing touch for this look is a little blush on the apples of Heather's cheeks. Anton used Almay Smart Shade Powder Blush, $9.79, and a fluffy powder blush to give Heather a rosy glow. Then she added a pinky-nude lipstick to Heather's lips. "You want a neutral lip color with a smoky eye," she says.

After
"OMG, I love it!" Heather says after seeing her final look. "I never wear dark shadows like this because I feel like I have deep-set eyes, but this looks amazing, I can't believe it!"
