- Be aware that making your own foundation is not an exact science.
You have to play a little with the doses and the ingredients before finding THE color that suits your complexion.
- Just because this recipe is 100% natural doesn't that it is suitable for all skin types.
Of course, this recipe does not contain any toxic product. But I still advise you to do a little test beforehand.
That way, you can determine if this natural powder is a good alternative to your usual makeup.
- As you will have noticed in the photos, I chose to make a foundation with a light color.
I just used cocoa powder . No need for cinnamon or nutmeg for my aspirin colored skin!
If you have darker skin, just play around with the ingredients until you get the color that suits you.
