The celebrity makeup artist Tanvi Chemburkar is also familiar with this complication and thus, she shares her beauty secret to get the perfect foundation shade. Tanvi recommends rechecking the foundation shade outside the store to avoid fluorescent lighting as the lighting usually deceives our eyes which further result in choosing the wrong shade. However, she also advises clicking some pictures in the natural light before finalizing the shades as this process will help to completely ensure the overall texture and final shade of the foundation both under daylight and fluorescent lighting. Apart from this, one can also apply a small quantity of the picked shade down the neck and across the jawline to get a better view of the foundation blend with the skin. Last but not least, pick a foundation whose shade goes well-versed with the face, as our face generally has a lighter shade than the rest of our body.
- Use of Cream Before Concealer: To get a flawless complexion, one needs to prep their skin with proper exfoliation, cleansing, and moisturizing process. Understanding the order of makeup application is very important as if you skip a single step your whole look might get spoiled or gloomy.

But before using any type of concealer, Namrata advises to prepped the skin efficiently especially the under the eyes area to avoid the appearance of dark circles or pigmentation. Namrata's beauty secret to preparing the skin before makeup is to use cream and especially eye cream which helps the foundation as well as the concealer to sit still in its place without a cakey texture or creasing. In addition, try to use a puff for applying the loose translucent powder after the concealer instead of a brush as the brush could discard the creamy texture while a puff helps to gently settle both concealer and powder.

Rea advises the beginners to gain an understanding of the color game with a visual representation of hues it helps to know the relationship between one shade with the other. Usually, bright colors such as red and green or blue and orange are the pair of shades that should be avoided as they are not easy to conceal with one's skin tone.
