My fave tip for a flawless base is applying foundation all over but none under the eyes (where you will later put concealer).
Apply your cream contour / bronzer and liquid blush, - and then do a few dots of concealer under your eyes.
TIP----> leave the concealer for about a minute, for it to partially set, then tap in with a brush, before blending with a sponge and setting with a small amount of powder ! A little will go a very long way!
