Meigipõhi

Meigipõhi, often referred to as foundation in English, is a cosmetic product used to create an even-toned and smooth skin appearance. It is typically applied to the face to conceal blemishes, dark spots, or other imperfections, and to even out skin tone. Meigipõhi comes in various forms, including liquid, cream, powder, and stick, each offering different levels of coverage and finish.

The choice of meigipõhi often depends on individual skin type and desired outcome. Liquid foundations are generally suitable for most skin types and can offer sheer to full coverage. Cream foundations tend to be richer and provide heavier coverage, often beneficial for dry or mature skin. Powder foundations offer a matte finish and are a good choice for oily skin. Stick foundations are convenient for touch-ups and can provide medium to full coverage.

Ingredients in meigipõhi vary widely but commonly include pigments to color the skin, emollients for hydration, and often SPF for sun protection. Some formulations also contain skincare benefits like anti-aging ingredients or treatments for acne. Application methods can include using fingers, a makeup sponge, or a brush, with each method potentially yielding a different finish and coverage. Proper blending is crucial to avoid a streaky or unnatural look.
