1. Mineral Foundation Powder

When you’re really trying to let your freckles sing and your face shine, don’t use a whole lot of cover up. Why not use a little swipe of mineral foundation powder instead of something heavy? This is one of the best ways to enhance your freckles and let them shine through; it will totally let your face and skin look flawless and beautiful!

Mineral foundation powder is a great way to enhance your freckles without using too much cover up. It is applied with a brush or sponge and allows your skin to look flawless and beautiful while still showing your freckles.

The powder is made up of natural minerals, such as mica, titanium dioxide, and zinc oxide, which helps to reflect light and give your skin a glowing, natural look. The minerals also help to absorb oil and control shine, making it perfect for combination skin.

In addition to enhancing your freckles, mineral foundation powder also provides a natural coverage that is lightweight and breathable. It is also free of harsh chemicals, such as parabens and phthalates, making it a great choice for those with sensitive skin.

The best way to apply mineral foundation powder is to start with a clean, moisturized face. Then, use a brush to lightly apply the powder in circular motions, starting at the center of your face and working your way out. This will help to ensure an even coverage and will help to blend the powder into your skin.

2. Tinted Moisturizers

If you are really looking for ways to enhance your freckles, you’ve got to ditch the heavy foundations and opt for something lighter – like a tinted moisturizer! Tinted moisturizer or even a BB cream are super light. They will actually make your freckles really stand out, while covering up!

Frequently asked questions

3. Stay Away from Liquid Foundations

Remember how I said to ditch those heavy foundations? That includes anything liquid! Liquid foundations are designed to cover completely and not let anything peek through, so if you really want to enhance your freckles, you’ve got to get rid of the liquid foundation and instead, go with something lighter!

4. No Concealer

Now, I actually think that you can use just a little bit of the concealer. What I mean is that if you have a bunch of blemishes and acne scars, you don't want to skip covering those up. But, you don't want to conceal your freckles. Instead, just spot conceal, that way you can let your freckles shine through!

5. Pink-Based Blush

When you are choosing your blush and you are really looking for ways to enhance your freckles, think about using a pink-based blush! Just a little splash of pink along your cheeks can really make your cheeks stand out. It will also make your freckles appear that much more apparent!

6. Subtle Bronzer

When you're trying to enhance your freckles, using a bit of subtle bronzer along your cheekbones can go a long way! Defining your cheekbones with bronzer is super easy and it's a great makeup product that will highlight your freckles too! For me, just a little swipe under my cheekbone does the job perfectly!

7. No Glitter

Your freckles shimmer and shine on their own, so you don't need to add any glitter to highlight them. This trick is one that I learned when I was really trying to highlight my freckles – but found that I was taking away from them as soon as I put on my shimmering powder. Skip the shimmer, girls!

8. Pink Lipstick

Finally, the last tip to enhance your freckles all revolves around your lips! You can actually use some pink lipstick to really highlight and draw out the color of your freckles! Pinks and pinkish browns are a great way to draw out your freckles and really give them the spotlight to shine!
