Mistake one
Gabi said the most common mistake people can make is not to prep their skin properly.
“The better your skin looked to begin with, before applying any makeup at all, the nicer the makeup is going to look and the longer it’s going to last,” said Gabi.
Exfoliation is key, which should be followed by hydration and primer.
Gabi pointed out that if you use a chemical sunscreen, then you must apply that first before moisturising.

If you have a physical sunscreen, then moisturiser goes on before you apply the sunscreen.
Primer always goes on top of these products as the last step before you apply makeup.
Mistake two
Gabi cautioned against using “drying powder foundation” as they can be “incredibly unflattering”.
The TikToker said powder foundation will “flatten the radiance of the skin” and will “sit in the fine lines and wrinkles”.
Not only that, powder foundation is said to “look very patchy and cakey” on mature skin.
A beautiful full-coverage foundation that Gabi recommends is Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup.
When using liquid foundation, she said you should first “dab the product in the middle of the face”.
Gabi added: “Then use a damp beauty blender to stipple and blend it out towards the hairline.”
