Whether you have always had freckles or they have become prevalent, we can all agree on the fact that freckles are annoying. Though, having freckles doesn’t mean you should stop yourself from wearing makeup or hide them under layers of suffocating pore-closing foundations. There are many skin care products for women that can help you cover up them in the right way.

Here are the steps to wear makeup when you have freckles on your face:

Choosing the correct foundation

Freckle friendly makeup foundations like Benecos - Natural Creamy Foundation or Glo Minerals Pressed Base Foundation in the right skin tone can work wonders for you. Most women tend to match the foundation shade with the freckles, but that is a mistake because it will make your skin look darker. The right trick is to stick to a color that blends well with your skin tone and freckle tones, and that’s something just in-between the two.

Choose sheer formulas

Try sheer foundation for freckles like Maybelline New York Dream Pure BB Cream or Alba Botanica - Even Advanced CC Cream as they add a light cover to your face. It evens out the complexion and conceals the freckles.

Brighten up your cheeks

Instead of choosing a blush color that is close to your freckles, which could make your face look dull, go for a peachy blush like the L'Oreal Paris Studio Secrets The One Sweep Sculpting Blush to even down the tone.

While we have listed some of the best drugstore foundation for freckles, in case all your freckles still aren’t hidden, try the NYX Mechanical Eye Pencil, Brown to fill up the dots. There are many shades available – you just need to get the one that suits your skin color.
