How you put on makeup is as important as the makeup itself. The first step is to find the right shade of foundation. Since most women, regardless of skin color, have yellow based skin, they must wear a foundation with a yellow base. Sacha manufactures the only line of yellow-based foundations on the market.

TIP: For warmer climates or in the summer, take special care to set your foundation with a loose powder, as heat tends to create slipping or running of your foundation. This is especially so in the case of cream foundation as they tend to have a higher oil content.

If you have extra oily skin, use our Ultra-Matte Translucent Powders in Light, Medium or Dark shades. These powders were first developed for the Miss Universe Pageant 1999 to keep the delegates shine free during long days of shooting. They are sheer and contain loads of oil natural absorbers.

Complexion powders on the other hand, have a greater degree of color and because they are more opaque, are used alone. They can also be used with your foundation to set, adjust or enhance. Put on makeup in this way and your face will look flawless and natural-looking

Some women wear foundations that are too pink and try to neutralize the redness by finishing with one of our yellow-based powders. We strongly advise against this since this will result in the color of your makeup turning orange. Remember red plus yellow equals orange!
