01Step 1: Sweep your palms across your face

Step 3: Soften with a damp makeup sponge

One of the quickest and easiest ways to remove excess foundation from your face is by using the heat from your hands. Wash your hands thoroughly and pat dry. Now using smooth and quick movements glide your palms over your face, your palms will absorb the excess foundation. Be sure to not rub your skin as this will not only remove the foundation completely but can also be damaging for your skin.

The next step is to use a soft tissue to absorb the excess product. If there are certain areas where you have applied too much foundation, gently press on it to pick the product. This step will grab all the extra particles that your hands couldn't absorb. Again, be sure you don't rub or scrape the area as this will completely ruin your base. To reach smaller areas such as the eyes, wrap the tissue around your index finger and then dab.
