Do I have to use foundation everyday?

"Do I have to use foundation everyday?"


This is a question that has been sitting with me for the past few years.
When I was in school, I always thought wearing foundation clogged
your pores and aged your face quicker. Fortunately for me, I didn't
have acne and didn't fake tan either. My skin for the most part has 
been clear for 90% of my life, and the only time I really get acne is 
when I use certain beauty products. 




Over the past couple of years I had been using different types of foundations to help with the paleness I developed on my face. I don't find I need to use it every day, and by putting it in my makeup tutorials I would be a bit of a hypocrite. I've done a couple tutorial's where I show exactly how I apply my foundation, concealer, and illuminator (highlighting). Instead of showing my viewers the long drawn out process of applying foundation/concealer, I'd rather skip to the contouring/blush/bronzer part of my makeup 
tutorials. 







Some Beauty Guru's who claim other Youtubers need to do foundation and concealer steps in each makeup tutorial videos or they won't be watched. Does your routine really differ so much from just changing the brand of the products that you have to do this? I don't think so. I aim to make my content as real and genuine as possible. Each channel is unique, just as each one of our styles is as well. So I will have some looks that have barely any foundation to begin with, to looks that are completely glam and thoroughly 
explained.
