1. wash your face..do a toner ..then do a lotion..make sure it has sunscreen...then concealer is to pin point bad area's..pimples..dark circles...whatever ...that goes first...then foundation is for all over coverage...and then a powder sets it all and it goes last....
2. Foundation is something that goes all over your face. It's the actual make up. Concealer is used to conceal your flaws. Like if you have a scar or pimple, you put that on after the foundation and blend it. The powder is something you put on after the foundation all over your face to give it a matte look and kind of hold it in place.
3. well foundation is pretty much the base for the rest of your makeup, & it's meant to smooth out your imperfections. concealer or cover-up is used to cover-up pimples, redness, whatever you want to hide (but dont put too much on!) powder is used to absorb oil, and leave your face matte. but don't put too much on, let your natural beauty show through (:
4. concealers CONCEAL different things that someone may want to hide, like blemishes and dark undereye circles... foundation is to even out the whole face and have a even surface to work with (you usually put concealer on first then foundation) i dont know what you mean by blenders but for the powder, you need that to set your foundation to make it stay longer... then you put on blush an you are set!
5. 1. concealer is used to cover up problematic spots like acne or age spots, generally. is found in cream, liquid and sometimes powdered form. cream covers best but liquids looks less cakey and I've never used powdered ones. 2. foundation is used to even out skin but needs to be set with translucent powder. is found in cream, liquid and powdered form. it applies the same as concealer but liquids give a light to full coverage (depending on the formula) and creams tend to give full coverage. Powder foundations are used in lieu of cream/liquid foundations and give medium to full coverage. Translucent power is used to set cream and liquid foundations to prevent it from sliding off your face. it also gives your face a nice porcelain finish. I don't know what a 'blender' is, but I do know what 'blending' is; buffing the powers/creams/liquids together making your face seamless and flawless.
