How does it work ?
Kevin Kodra, a fan of contouring, “underpainting” or even “covering”, does not hesitate to multiply the layers of makeup to achieve the desired result. And to make your beauty last as long as possible, the make-up artist has a trick. Equipped with setting powder and a velvety sponge, the professional places some powder in the center and rubs both sides of the sponge together to absorb all the product. Once the powder has completely penetrated the sponge, the make-up artist presses it onto the face to fix the make-up and neutralize the shine. “All you have to do is put the sponge in the bag and take it out when needed,” explains Kevin Kodra. Since the powder has penetrated the sponge, there is no need to add product every time you apply to your face.
