Ravishing Lovedust

Before You Begin

• With AVC Cosmetics, a little goes a long way. Therefore, always start with a small amount, being careful not to apply anything too heavily. After all, you can always add more if you need to.
• Blending is the key to achieving a finished smooth look. You will need to blend much more than you may be used to because a tiny bit of AVC product will cover much more than you think.
• Make sure you are in a well lit area to apply your makeup. A lighted magnifying mirror is the best.
• Always start with clean dry skin. Use astringent or toner around the eyelids as they require deeper cleaning.
• Do not use a moisturizer. This is essential to holding the makeup in place.

• Set these products with AVC Oil Control Powder Compact. Use the AVC Powder Brush or the AVC Blush Brush. Using a blush brush will help you control the amount of powder that you apply. A light dusting is perfect.
