When applying foundation to someones face it is extremely important that you colour match the customer which can be done by swabbing colours you feel may be a match and blending them out to see if the colour disappears into their natural skin tone.
This step may take a while but cannot be skipped as you want the customer to be satisfied with her look. Also if the foundation doesn't match their natural skin tone it is obvious.
When first colour matching my partner I struggled as I have no experience in colour matching people but once you get the hand of it you managed it first round time.Also when doing makeup for a beauty shot the flash/lighting set up used will magnify the skin and will bring out any issues with the makeup so it is important that the makeup is used correctly.
