"With the popularity of cosmeceuticals&amp;amp;#8212;makeup formulated with beneficial skincare ingredients&amp;amp;#8212;steady on the rise, it&amp;#x27;s only right that a DIY-girl such as myself learn how to mix my own. While backstage at the Vanessa Bruno show in Paris, Diane Kendal (Sunday Riley makeup artist behind the fall 2012 looks at Victoria Beckham and Maiyet as well), gave me my very first lesson. For a seamless, second-skin like look, make your cover-up look much more natural by mixing one drop of moisturizing oil with three drops of your favorite liquid foundation. &amp;quot;It really gives a nice texture to the skin, and it really soaks it in,&amp;quot; said Kendal. &amp;quot;I use the ring and middle finger to massage it in, making small circles.&amp;quot; My skin type is usually normal, but in the winter it tends to be drier, so this tip is right up my alley&amp;amp;#8212;right now my face needs all the moisture it can get. &amp;quot;But if you&amp;#x27;ve got oily skin, it&amp;#x27;s not really a great idea for you,&amp;quot; Kendal warned. I&amp;#x27;ve been testing her technique for a few days now, and my foundation looks glowy and dewy (not shiny at all). Bonus: My skin doesn&amp;#x27;t seem to be suffering at all, as I haven&amp;#x27;t experienced any new pimples. (Currently doing the Dougie.) Here, a few of my favorite face oils: Bobbi Brown Extra Face Oil, $62 | Jurlique Skin Balancing Face Oil, $50 | Juno Transformative Lipid Serum, $125. Are you afraid to use oil on your face? Will you be mixing a drop of oil in with your foundation moving forward?"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
