## About Pooja's Makeup School: Skin & Base

The secret to makeup that doesn't crack isn't in your foundation, but in how you prep. Before you reach for any coverage, make sure your skin is hydrated and correctly primed. I always tell my students: if your skin prep is wrong, no amount of expensive product can save the finish.

### Why Prep Matters
Many people think buying an expensive foundation is the fix for patchy skin. That's a mistake. If your CTM (Cleansing, Toning, Moisturizing) routine isn't tailored to your specific skin type, your base will never sit right. Whether you are dry, oily, or combination, your base needs to be prepped differently.

### My Approach to Base Makeup
*   **Technique Over Labels:** You don't need a high-end foundation to look good. With the right blending and product choice—like using a luminous formula for dry skin or a matte one for oily skin—you can achieve a flawless look with budget-friendly products too.
*   **Color Correction:** Stop using a thick layer of foundation to hide dark circles. Learn to use color correctors (peach for dark circles, green for redness) to even out your tone first. This prevents that grey, ashy look that ruins a perfect base.
*   **Setting Your Base:** A setting spray is not optional. It locks your work in and prevents it from transferring, especially in Delhi's humidity. It adds life back into the skin after using powder.

### Learning With Me
In my Gurgaon-based classes, I don't just teach you to paint a face. I teach you the chemistry of skin prep, how to pick products that actually work for you, and how to troubleshoot common issues like cakey makeup or foundation oxidation. If you want to stop guessing and start knowing exactly what your skin needs, let's connect.

## About Pooja

Hi, I am Pooja. I believe you don't need a heavy wallet to get a flawless look, just the right technique. I started these classes because I love helping people understand their skin instead of just hiding it under layers of product. If you are tired of patchy makeup, let's fix it together.
