What's the difference between liquid and powder foundation? Are there different uses?

liquid covers your face from blemishes and powder gets rid of grease, especially around the nose area.





The best way to put it on is to put the liquid on first then the powder, after the liquid is dry.





I use Maybelle dream matt mouse foundation and then the Maybelle powder.

It has a lot to do with preference. Liquid tends to feel a little heavier and provides a thicker, more FULL coverage. Powder is very light and you have to apply a lot more to get the ''power'' of the liquid. I personally recommend MaryKay's mineral powder: www.marykay.com/SuzanneLorenzini Check it out. (They also do full refunds if you don't like it). 8]
Liquid foundation is sometimes used for people with dry skin whereas poweder foundation helps give a matt look for people with oily skin. However you can get oil free liquid foundation. Liquid foundation also has a heavier coverage x
liquid has much better coverage. and doesn't give you that FLAKY look that some power foundations tend to give.


liquid looks more natural and pretty. smooth and blush is easier to apply, because the damp-ness of the skin attracts the powdery blush. makes it stay on longer.


sometimes when I apply liquid foundation, I use a little bit powder to just SET on the make up. it works good.


but generally: I'd recommend liquid. (for flawless coverage and a more natural smooth look)
Liquid is best for dry skin. Powder is best for oily. But some people use liquid and then set it with powder. Powder gives a lighter coverage too. =]

liquid foundation adds light or a glow to the complexion. it has medium coverage and gives a light moisturizing effect. powder foundation gives lighter coverage and usually looks more natural.
liquid is wet


powder is dry and can be applied with brush





depends if you want heavy or light coverage


powder is light coverage, liquid is the heavy one


also depends on your skin type
