Top Cosmetics & Makeup picks on Rakuten

 

Whether you’re building a basic daily regimen or giving yourself a whole new look, you can earn Cash Back and score deals on your favorite makeup picks when you start your shopping trip through Rakuten. You’ll find:

• Foundation and skin tint: Even out your base with lightweight tints or full-coverage formulas that match your finish preference.
• Concealer: Brighten and spot-correct with creamy options that range from natural to full coverage.
• Mascara: Add instant definition with lengthening, volumizing and tubing formulas that hold up all day.
• Lip products: Build a lip wardrobe with lipsticks, lip oils, glosses and liners that layer easily.
• Blush and bronzer: Warm up and add dimension with powders, creams and sticks for a natural-looking glow.

For oily skin, look for matte or soft-matte and labels that specify “oil-free.” For dry skin, choose hydrating or dewy formulas. For combination skin, go with a natural finish. Skin tints are lighter and more forgiving, while foundations offer more coverage and longer wear.

Match the foundation to your neck or chest, not your hand. Identify your undertone, such as cool/pink, warm/golden, neutral or olive. Use makeup brands’ shade finders, compare the foundation to a shade you already own and look for swatches on multiple skin tones in natural light.

Creams look more skinlike and blend more easily, while powders can be more long-wearing on oily skin and easier to build precisely. For maximum longevity, apply the cream first and then set lightly with powder.

Keep the layers thin, prep with skin-care products that suit your skin type and avoid mixing incompatible textures, such as heavy oil under a silicone-heavy base. Use a small amount of powder only where needed and let the primer set before adding foundation.

Tubing mascara forms tubes around lashes and usually removes with warm water, resisting smudges and flaking. Traditional mascara uses waxes or pigments and typically removes with cleanser or makeup remover. It can smudge more on oily lids.
