Hi there Thanks for the vid. But don't you use powder over your foundation?

[@purplebroccoli5425]

Thank you so much, this helped a lot!!! But I got a question- I have pretty heavy discoloration around my mouth and where my laugh lines are. so if i use concealer or foundation to cover that up, it always creates creasing. but i dont know what to do- either i have discoloration or i have creasing around my mouth - it seems like i cant win :(. do you have any tips for that? Lots of love xoxo
