This did not work for me this am.

-Primer

-Light dusting of IT powder

-Setting spray

-L'Oreal Paris True Match Nude Hyaluronic Tinted Serum Foundation with 1% Hyaluronic acid

Led to a disaster. Had to wash my face and start over. Foundation went on dry and blotchy. W/o the dusting powder, my foundation looks fabulous, so I won't be trying this again. I do assume operator error. LOL.

I do this often and it works well for me.  I don't use a primer when I wear it this way.  I've done it with IT CC cream and Doll 10 Hydragel foundation, and my makeup lasts all day.  Yesterday I asked my sister what makeup she was wearing.  She said "Why, is it too dark?"  I told ner no, it looks great.  She said she used a light dusting of powder under her Mary Kay foundation.

I tried this technique on myself yesterday just to experiemnt. What a mess!  

I have a small pink rechargeable fan to dry my skincare faster. I waited awhile and then applied my LM setting powder. Then applied a liquid foundation. It caked up, balled up  and the foundation actually "pulled off" the powder...even after setting again. Not a good look.

I have used powder to "bake" under the eyes on brides, but that's an entirely different technique. 

Maybe they just want to sell more of their powder. 

This technique may give exra full coverage which I don't want or need and a very matte look...I also prefer a natural dewy look. I don't need my makeup to last 12-14 hours either.......That may be the only instance when this would work, but I think it'd be a choice of foundation and powder that work together.

@JeanLouiseFinch  @San Antonio Gal   I just posted my  experiment on myself. I have no idea how this would ever work or why they suggested it.

I do this all the time but then again,  I use a powder foundation. I dust some loose setting powder over my sunscreen, because it's pretty shiny, then I go ahead and apply my powder foundation over it.

@Texasmouse   I follow a youtuber MrKongsMom who has very, very oily skin. She wears LG Balance and Brighten, but first uses a setting powder over her skincare so the oils don't break through the powder foundation. 

My skin is dry.  I only use a setting powder in the t zone after my foundation which is usually only a tinted moisturizer.

Sounds messy...I think I'll pass.
