DIY How to Make your own Natural Make-up Foundation, Moisturizer or BB Cream.
I know I’ve already shared a foundation here and a powder foundation here. But, sometimes skin needs make-up that is a little lighter. I also have a formula for make-up remover, click here if you’d like to read it! The above-mentioned posts will (hopefully) be translated into English soon, however, if you do wish to check them out beforehand, you can go into the google chrome navigator, it offers to translate any website directly.
