If you aren’t applying your foundation with a makeup spatula yet, what are you doing?? This beauty trend originated within the Korean beauty community, and we already know anything K-beauty is probably going to live up to the hype! Although it seems intimidating to apply foundation with a flexible, steel blade, these videos are proving that everyone can achieve this look from home. This method of foundation application is believed to give that glass-skin finish that everyone is striving for!

The Application Process

The way to achieve this is by putting a small amount of foundation on the back of your hand. Then, you drag the thin edge of your spatula through the foundation. Slowly apply the foundation to small sections of your face at a time using a very gentle hand. Gentle blend with a sponge, and voila! You’ve got a perfect foundation application and glass-like skin.

The Results

Seeing how this trend has blown up all over TikTok and Instagram, it’s clear that this hack truly works. By using a spatula with minimal product, this method ensures that you get an even application all over your face, and it prevents cakey-ness caused by using too much product. Overall, we really recommend you give this method a try with your favorite foundation next time you do your makeup!
