What is sandbagging ?

The make-up that does not hold, or even worse, that runs leaving bad traces, is our obsession to all. In order to avoid seeds, so far free powder was used in very thin layers . But despite that, not always easy to make hold its trait of kohl . So, what about sandbagging ? This technique, used by Mario Dedivanovic the make-up artist of Kim Kardashian , promises a perfect hold of the makeup but also to blur the unsightly dark circles like never before. In the sandbagging technique (sandbag in French), free powder is always used, but in very large layers this time on certain areas of the face.

The different stages of sandbagging

1 - First take care to unify and make up your complexion as usual.

2 - After this, free powder is applied with a make-up sponge on the areas concerned, under the eyes and on the lower face , on both sides of the mouth in particular. One does not hesitate to go there a fort and deposit a lot of matter. It is this high dose of free powder that will then absorb the excess sebum produced by the skin and responsible in part, for the makeup that flows.

3 - We finish our routine make-up and, of course, no way out on the street, we take care to remove excess powder with a fine brush.
