A primer also gives your makeup a flawless finish making it last longer. So you can pick Iba Photo Perfect HD Primer that is known to transform your skin in 5 ways – smoothens, mattifies, fills pores and fine lines and enhances radiance.

FAQs
1.Is it necessary to pick a foundation according to my exact skin tone?
If you have dusky skin tone, it is extremely important that you pick a foundation that matches your complexion perfectly. If you pick a shade lighter than your skin tone, your makeup is going to oxidise and it will make your skin look grey. Hence picking a foundation similar to your skin tone is essential.
2.Is compact powder necessary?
If you have oily skin, then you will need a compact powder to set your makeup and make it last longer. If you want a dewy look makeup then you can skip out on your compact powder. Apart from this, you can also use your compact powder to touch up your makeup whenever you wish to.
3.Which is the best blush shade for dusky skin tone?
For a dusky skin tone, you can pick a dark pink or a maroon for your blush and blend it out well. This will give you a beautiful and a natural flushed look.
