It needs to be strong, no matter if it’s a build and a good mighty foundation.
Before covering this wide debate topic which can be layered down deeply. The prime motive is to understand the process that goes behind taking and applying a foundation. Firstly if we start from the basics, Skin undertone is to be comprehended. It is the colour that comes through the skin from underneath its surface and is basically of three types – warm, neutral and cool. International makeup artist Pooja Sethiya, who specializing in prosthetics, SFX & HD makeup shares insights on how to choose the right foundation.
It’s good to test on the wrist first which can help you check the colour of your veins. If they’re purple or blue in coloration then you definitely are cool. If they are green or olive in coloration, you’re warm. But in case you are not able to determine the dominant colour, you’re impartial. Another one is the solar test which can be done when your pores and skin turns purple while you are out inside the solar, you have a cool undertone. Conversely, in case you get tanned without difficulty in the solar you’ve got heat undertone.
Once you know what skin colour and undertone match right, the specific search narrows considerably. You can start by shortlisting three shades that seem to be a good match as per your valuable knowledge and then the best way is by dabbing some of each shade on your jawline and the pro tip here lies that don’t just consider your face for making the final decision but also your neck. Because usually if you go by the norms foundation should blend seamlessly with both your face and your neck.
Matte or dewy? This is another important musing. Dewy has a special flavor towards normal to dry skin types as too much radiance on this skin type looks oilier while matte foundations are usually more suitable for combination to oily skin types as per convenience and also matte is definitely not the pick for winter seasons.
While managing the coverage portion one has to choose wisely between light, medium, and full. If you’re seeking to simply even out your pores and skin tone without fully protecting the entirety up, cross for a sheer or mild insurance basis. This one appears the maximum herbal and seems like pores and skin or in case you prefer to absolute cowl all of your spots, blemishes, and hyperpigmentation, choose a complete insurance basis and keep in mind that foundations have a tendency to oxidize after a couple of minutes due to the warmth from the pores and skin, inflicting it to show barely orange.
A pro tip that can come in handy with this problem is that wait around 5-10 minutes to see how the foundation will truly appear after it has completely oxidized as it tends to get darker after some time. So, next time while visiting your make-up heaven, make sure you know better than you are told and especially when you are about to make an impression.
The United States was clearly second-best after a 2-0 defeat to Canada north of the border that left the USMNT with plenty of work still to do to qualify for the 2022 World Cup.
But head coach Gregg Berhalter didn’t share that same assessment at the end of the 90 minutes in Hamilton, Ontario and with four matches remaining in qualifying.
The USMNT boss felt that the United States “dominated” the match against Canada and that it was only missing the end product. He shared his analysis with media following the match with several points that are sure to have fans talking.
What did Gregg Berhalter say after the loss to Canada?
Gregg Berhalter was direct from the start of his postmatch press conference, highlighting what he believed to be the positives of the performance.
“I think it was an entire team effort that was outstanding,” Berhalter said in his opening remarks. “We asked them to be dominant, we asked them to embrace the conditions, embrace the physicality of the opponent, and I think we did that and more.
“It’s hard for me to remember a more dominant performance away from home that didn’t produce a result. The result hurts. The performance doesn’t hurt. I’m proud of the guys and the way they competed.”
“It was a dominant away performance without a win.”
Canada seemed to assert its physical and tactial dominance on the match, absorbing pressure to little harm while Jonathan David and Cyle Larin countered with blitzing breakaways when the space was available. They bullied Christian Pulisic, Sergino Dest, and every U.S. ball carrier, as the referee let the teams play.
But again, that’s not how Berhalter saw it.
“They couldn’t handle our physicality, that’s plain and simple,” Berhalter continued when asked about the physical style of play from Canada. “We were running them all over the pitch. When you look at duels won, when you look at our pressing, they were having a very, very hard time dealing with what we were giving them.”
Unfortunately, when you look at the duels, it doesn’t back up Berhalter’s statement. The United States held a whopping 64% possession, but with that, they only only managed success on 69/139 duels, including 19/43 aerial duels and 15/28 dribbles, and the U.S. still managed to commit 15 fouls to Cnaada’s 12. All told, Canada somehow managed to produce four shots on target to three for the U.S. That’s anything but “dominance” anywhere on the field.
While Berhalter recognized the quality of Canada’s players in attack, he separated their efficiency from the overall play exhibited by Les Rouges. Here was Berhalter’s take on the game put forth by his opponent, which was physically and tactically superior for large stretches of the match:
“I don’t think they dominated much of anything,” Berhalter said, “but one thing that separates Canada from the rest of the group is the quality of their strikers to finish a small amount of chances.”
Despite 64 percent possession and a 13-8 shot advantage – two statistical categories in which the United States emerged superior – the USMNT managed just four shots on target and 0.87 expected goals. There was nothing “dominant” about the USA’s attacking threat, which produced just one truly clear-cut chance, as Weston McKennie’s header at the end of the first half was brilliantly saved by Milan Borjan.
Otherwise, there was little to savor from the match in its entirety. McKennie looked energetic, but he was unable to link up with the attackers in dangerous ways. Christian Pulisic again struggled to create opportunities for himself or others. Gyasi Zardes, surprisingly given the start up front instead of the electric Ricardo Pepi, was wholly ineffective. Even the back line struggled, with Miles Robinson spun around on Larin’s opening goal.
Speaking of the opening goal, the United States seemed shell-shocked by the early home advantage, with the raucus crowd at a high energy level and the United States in panic mode early. But Berhalter would not be drawn into anything other than positivity after a comprehensive border rivalry defeat.
“It’s one of those goals that, besides the scoreline, it didn’t impact the game too much,” Berhalter said. “We were on it, we were dominating, we were playing with a lot of physicality, a lot of speed in our play. Canada had a very hard time getting in a rhythm.”
Berhalter did show a glimmer of realism, stating “In terms of the finishing, I don’t think we created that many clear-cut chances that we should have finished off, so I don’t think today was an issue of poor finishing.” But he went right back to his original theme. “Overall, again, when we talked about what we needed to do win this game, we checked almost all the boxes we needed to, and that I’m pleased with.”
There’s still a great chance that the United States will qualify for the World Cup given the way the CONCACAF standings have shaken out, but at this point, there remain more questions than answers heading towards the big dance this winter.
USMNT team news
Berhalter also gave worrying updates on the status of two injured United States stars.
Tyler Adams limped off in the 69th minute, replaced by Kellyn Acosta and grabbing at his right hamstring. Berhalter confirmed that Adams has a “slight hamstring strain,” and despite his assertation that they are still assessing his status, it’s very possible that Adams plays no part in the final qualifier in this window. His presence is needed in the final push, and having him healthy for the March qualifiers is essential.
Worse off was Chris Richards, who came off the field with 10 minutes to go despite Berhalter having used all five available substitutions. That left the United States a man down for the final push.
It was for good reason. According to the head man, Richards could be dealing with a broken foot, which would leave him out of action for a significant amount of time. “Chris is likely out with a foot injury, maybe broken, we have to get the x-ray.”
Finally, Berhalter said that Walker Zimmerman was held out of the match against Canada with a hamstring problem, but said he would be available for the Honduras match to round out the window.
United States head coach Gregg Berhalter said the United States “dominated” the match against Canada, but after a 2-0 defeat, many USMNT won’t share the same takeaway.
On the road in CONCACAF World Cup qualifying in a hostile environment thanks to a raucous Ontario crowd and frigid temperatures, the United States flopped to a comprehensive defeat, beaten by a Canada side happy to sit back and absorb pressure before hitting with pace and venom on the counter.
The Canadians played their style in their home, and while defender Miles Robinson claimed nothing that the hosts did surprised the Americans, the United States still always looked a step behind.
While the Canadians proved themselves the class of CONCACAF and moved to the brink of World Cup qualification, the USMNT still has work to do to secure a spot. In fact, a first-place finish is almost certainly out of the question, and the U.S. could even fall adrift in third if Mexico tops Costa Rica.
What we learned from Canada vs. USMNT
1. Issues with Christian Pulisic
Captain America has struggled the past few months at Chelsea, we all know that. Being asked to play different positions and earning only sporadic minutes has clearly taken a toll, that much was evident against El Salvador. But Pulisic is a highly talented player, and fans expected him to find a groove eventually.
The opposite has happened. Pulisic had a downright poor game against Canada, unable to produce anything electric in open play or anything even serviceable on set pieces. His one corner delivery to the head of Weston McKennie at the end of the first half was his only special moment of the match.
If the alarm bells weren’t blaring after El Salvador, they are now. There are plenty of theories about the mental, physical, tactical, or other factors that might be at play, but whatever the problem, it is evident that Pulisic is pressing. With just one more match on Wednesday before players fly back to their clubs to continue the season, Berhalter doesn’t have enough time to sort out what is wrong or how to fix the player. That’s on Pulisic. Berhalter’s immediate goal will be to figure out his best way to attack Honduras, and that might not include the Chelsea man.
2. Canada is extremely CONCACAF, but in a fun way
While the United States has been fixated for years on building into an international competitor that can consistently battle Europe’s powers, Canada has simply focused on embracing CONCACAF. It’s worked, to perfection.
Les Rouges are a perfect encapsulation of how to be successful in the North American confederation, producing a winning combination of defensive prowess, counter-attack magic, and a bit of mucking-it-up when necessary. Jonathan David and Alphonso Davies take this cohesive unit to the next level with their world-class talent, but even without one or both, John Herdman has fostered a program built on unity and structure.
While other inferior CONCACAF sides need to rely on a mix of fouls, yellow cards, and other shenanigans and gamesmanship, Canada has quality and enough pace and flair to justify its undefeated first-place standing in the table.
Who knows if it’ll work at the next level when the Canadians reach Qatar, but in the Octagonal, it has been quite literally unbeatable.
3. USMNT lacked urgency and edge
Head coach Gregg Berhalter was open about the lack of connectivity in his post-match press conference following the 1-0 win over El Salvador just days prior.
“I wouldn’t say this was our best game,” Berhalter said about that win over the Cuscatlecos. “I think that the ambition to play forward and get behind [El Salvador] was missing for the 90 minutes. We had it in spurts, but I think it could have been better.” Berhalter continued later, “I didn’t think our press was as connected as it needed to be, and you could see that we were away from each other for a while, the majority of the group.”
Those same themes cropped up against Canada, and while the El Salvador match could be explained away as a good performance lacking a finishing touch, against Canada the United States produced just 0.87 expected goals. There were precious few chances created, and only Weston McKennie’s header near the end of the first half tested Canada ‘keeper Milan Borjan at all. The Canadians bullied the U.S., putting the onus on a referee who was letting the teams play.
In his role as analyst for CBS’s Paramount+, USMNT legend Clint Dempsey crushed the United States at halftime for having a lack of urgency in the first half, and it didn’t improve at all in the second half. But it’s not just this game that’s lacked any venom from the USMNT, as the El Salvador match proved.
There is obviously a continuing chemistry and urgency deficiency that needs to be rectified, and whether that comes from personnel decisions, a tactical reconfiguration, or a new approach to training, something clearly has to change.
The “mass-casualty” collision involved six vehicles and 15 people, police said.

Nine people died on Saturday in a “chaotic” traffic collision involving six vehicles in North Las Vegas, officials said.
“We have not seen a mass-casualty traffic collision like this before,” Alexander Cuevas, public information officer for the North Las Vegas Police, told reporters late Saturday.
Fifteen people had been involved in the incident, Cuevas said. Two were transported from the scene to University Medical Center, where one later died, he said. The other remained in critical condition, he said.
Officials said speed was a factor in the crash. It was unknown whether impaired driving had been a factor, they said.
The National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday that it is sending a go-team to investigate the crash in coordination with the North Las Vegas Police Department.
The crash unfolded at about 3 p.m. on Saturday when a Dodge Challenger heading north “at a high rate of speed” on Commerce Street ran a red light prior to the crash, Cuevas said citing statements from witnesses.
“And, with that, it struck multiple vehicles and, unfortunately, it was a chaotic event,” Cuevas said.
Several vehicles were pushed off the road into a vacant lot near the intersection of Commerce Street and Cheyenne Avenue, officials said.
The driver of the Challenger was among the dead, officials said. The deceased ranged from young juveniles to middle-aged adults, Cuevas said. Their identities will be released by the coroner’s office, police said.
“Our thoughts and our prayers are with the families who are experiencing a tremendous and unnecessary loss due to a careless, senseless act,” Pamela A. Goynes-Brown, a member of the North Las Vegas City Council, said.
Only winners will survive from here on out at the 2022 Africa Cup of Nations, as the knockout stages have moved into the semifinals.
Host Cameroon became the first semifinalist after a convincing 2-0 win over The Gambia. Karl Toko Ekambi accounted for both goals as the Indomitable Lions moved on to face Mo Salah and Egypt, which survived a North African quarterfinal battle against Morocco in extra time. Salah had a goal and the game-winning assist.
Another North African nation, Tunisia, will not be joining the semis after falling 1-0 to Burkina Faso, which continues its surprise run. The Stallions will face pre-tournament favorite Senegal in the semis. In the last quarterfinal, Sadio Mane and the Lions of Teranga took care of Equatorial Guinea3-1 with two second-half goals to break up the tie.
Among other top teams that qualified for the tournament, Nigeria and the Ivory Coast were eliminated in the Round of 16, while defending champion Algeria and traditional power Ghana were ousted in the group stage.
If there’s a draw after 90 minutes of regulation during these knockout rounds, there will be 30 minutes of extra time played, followed by a penalty-kick shootout if the deadlock persists. Only the third-place match on Feb. 6 will bypass extra time and head straight to penalty kicks.
AFCON 2022 knockout bracket
The AFCON 2022 quarterfinals were held over two days on Jan. 29-30 with the semis and finals happening in a span of five days in February.

Today’s AFCON matches: Sunday, Jan. 30
The quarterfinals wrapped up on Sunday with the pre-tournament favorite Senegal just one step away from returning to the AFCON final after Sadio Mane & Co. knocked off Equatorial Guinea in a quarterfinal 3-1.
The marquee matchup of the round also took place on the same day: Mohamed Salah scored Egypt’s opener and registered the game-winning assist in extra time as Egypt dispatched fellow North African nation Morocco 2-1.
The quarterfinals began with host Cameroon, which knocked off The Gambia with relative ease. The match saw Karl Toko Ekambi move to within a goal of teammate and top scorer Vincent Aboubakar atop the competition’s scoring chart. Aboubakar’s six goals are more than any other goalscorer in the Africa Cup of Nations since the 1998 edition.
Burkina Faso used a first-half goal by Dango Ouattara to knock off Tunisia and advance to the semis again after finishing in third place in the 2017 AFCON. The Stallions finished with 10 men after Ouattara was sent off for dishing out an elbow with eight minutes remaining, but Tunisia could not take advantage and will feel hard done by after a leg-crunching tackle in the Burkina Faso box did not result in a penalty kick.
Similar to other continental championships and World Cup tournaments, the Africa Cup of Nations began with a group stage, followed by knockout rounds all the way to the final.
Group stage: Jan. 9-20
Round of 16: Jan. 23-26
Quarterfinals: Jan. 29-30
Semifinals: Feb. 2-3
Third place: Feb. 6
Final: Feb. 6
The 24 nations were divided into six groups of four nations each. At the conclusion of round-robin group play — with three points awarded for a win, one for a draw and none for a loss — the top two teams in each group based on points (and tiebreakers, if necessary) advanced to the knockouts. The remaining slots in the Round of 16 were completed by the four best third-place finishers.
A predetermined knockout bracket is being played out all the way through to the final. If any knockout match ends in a tie after 90 minutes, the teams will play 30 minutes of extra time. If the draw persists, a penalty-kick shootout will determine the team to move on. The third-place match on Feb. 6 is the only one that would skip extra time and move straight to the shootout in case of a draw.
For the first time in the competition’s history, all 52 matches are featuring the use of a Video Assistant Referee (VAR).
Judging by BetMGM’s pre-tournament odds, Senegal-Algeria was the projected repeat final, but that won’t be happening given Algeria’s group-stage elimination. Senegal had the lowest odds of the bunch going into AFCON 2022, and it is the presumed favorite in the knockouts to win its first AFCON title.
Among the other nine nations judged the most likely to win it all, host Cameroon is still alive and will meet Egypt in the semifinal stage. Burkina Faso was one of the long shots and didn’t figure among the top 10 most likely to win it all.
Officials believe homemade devices were detonated in the vehicles.

The Sacramento Police Department is investigating two potentially related incidences of “suspicious explosions” in unoccupied vehicles in the California city.
Police first responded to a report of an explosion on Sunday, Jan. 23, around 9:45 p.m. and “located an unoccupied vehicle with significant damage consistent with an explosion occurring inside the vehicle,” according to a news release.
A few days later, at 6 p.m. on Friday, Jan. 28, officers again responded to a call regarding an explosion and found a similarly damaged vehicle.
“Based on evidence located during the investigation, officers believe a homemade explosive device was detonated inside the vehicle,” the release stated. “The circumstances of both incidents are similar.”
The two explosions occurred within a half mile of each other in the Oak Park area of Sacramento.
Police determined that no injuries occurred in either incident.
Officials are asking anyone with information to call the dispatch center at (916) 808-5471 or Sacramento Valley Crime Stoppers at (916) 443-HELP (4357). Callers with information may receive up to a $1,000 reward.
This past summer, the Justice Department unsealed the indictment of two California men who allegedly conspired to blow up Democratic headquarters in Sacramento. When investigators searched one of the men’s houses last year, he allegedly had five live pipe bombs and between 45 to 50 firearms.
Liverpool have completed the signing of Porto winger Luis Diaz, in a deal worth £50million (€60m/$67m).
The Colombian international has signed a five-and-a-half-year deal having undergone a medical in Argentina on Saturday, and will wear the No.23 shirt at Anfield.
The Reds will pay an initial fee of £37.5m (€45m/$50m) for the 25-year-old, with an additional £12.5m (€15m/$17m) in performance-related add-ons.
What’s been said?
Klopp expressed his delight after Diaz’s arrival at Anfield, telling the Reds’ official website: “I could not be happier that we’ve been able to get this deal done and bring Luis to Liverpool.
“He is an outstanding player and someone we’ve been tracking for a very long time.
“We believe he has everything needed to fit into our way and adapt to the Premier League, both physically and mentally. He is a player who is hungry for success and knows you have to fight to get what you want. He is a fighter, no doubt. He’s a skilful team player who has always the goal in mind.
“This team deserved to add quality and when we played against Luis earlier this season, we saw what a danger he is, how fast he is and how his mentality was to help his team.
“Luis is a player we believe will make us better now and in the future.”
Diaz will add even greater firepower to Jurgen Klopp’s ranks as he comes in to compete for regular minutes alongside Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mane, Diogo Jota and Roberto Firmino.
The Colombian emerged as one of the top young wingers in Europe during his three-year stint at Porto, recording 41 goals and 19 assists in 125 games.
Diaz took his game to new heights in the first half of the 2021-22 campaign, scoring 16 goals in 28 appearances for the Portuguese giants, and Liverpool fans will hope he can transfer that form straight into the Premier League.
What else could happen at Liverpool before transfer deadline day?
The Reds are expecting to receive offers for a number of players before Monday’s 11pm GMT deadline, with the likes of Divock Origi, Takumi Minamino and Nat Phillips, in particular, attracting interest.
Origi is wanted by Newcastle and Atalanta, among others, and could be allowed to leave if a suitable offer arrives.
Liverpool have received approaches from Leeds and Monaco for Minamino, but GOAL understands that they are reluctant to sanction a loan deal, and that the player is not keen on leaving, preferring instead to fight for his place if possible.
Phillips, meanwhile, is on the list of several Premier League clubs, including Burnley, Watford, Newcastle and Brighton, but as yet there has only been one concrete approach, a loan-to-buy deal from Watford which Liverpool rejected.
There may well be interest in full-back Neco Williams, though Liverpool would only sell if the other was a substantial one, while midfielder Leighton Clarkson will be allowed to leave on loan having failed to hold down a regular place with Championship side Blackburn during the first half of the season.

The Rams made a change at quarterback before the 2021 NFL season. It has worked out well.
Matthew Stafford has been a strong starter for the Rams. He threw for 41 touchdowns during his first season in Los Angeles, and while he led the league with 17 interceptions, he still quarterbacked the team to a 12-5 record.
The Rams reached a Super Bowl with Jared Goff, but they may have a chance to win one with Stafford. But in the event that Stafford, 33, runs into any trouble in the playoffs, do they have anything behind him to keep the team afloat?
Here’s what you need to know about Stafford’s backup and the other quarterback options further down the Rams depth chart.
Wolford, 26, originally signed with the Jets as an undrafted free agent out of Wake Forest in 2018, but he didn’t make the team. He landed with the Arizona Rattlers of the Alliance of American Football and led the league in passing touchdowns with 14 in eight games.
After the short-lived AAF was shuttered, Wolford joined the Rams. He has remained with the team since 2019 and worked his way up the depth chart to take over the backup quarterback job behind Jared Goff in 2020. He won his lone regular-season start, completing 22 of 38 passes for 231 yards and an interception in an 18-7 win over the Cardinals. He also ran for 56 yards on six attempts.
Wolford (6-1, 200 pounds) has thrown just 10 total pass attempts since that game. He was hurt during his lone playoff start for the Rams and replaced by an also-hobbled Goff before serving as Stafford’s backup in 2021.
Stafford has made a big difference for the Rams this year since replacing Goff. He had a rocky patch towards the end of the season during which he struggled with interceptions, but he has otherwise been rock-solid for Los Angeles.
During the playoffs, Stafford has completed 74.5 percent of his passes for 568 yards, four touchdowns and no interceptions. He’s hoping to earn passage to his first Super Bowl with a win over the 49ers.
John Wolford
Wolford only played 24 snaps for the Rams in 2021. He completed 1 of 4 passes for 5 yards and an interception. All of his action came in blowouts during which the Rams scored at least 37 points.
Perkins, like Wolford, is an undrafted free agent. The Rams kept the 25-year-old on the active roster in 2021 after he impressed during the preseason.
Perkins has never played in an NFL game, but he was a two-year starter at Virginia and threw 47 touchdowns compared to 21 interceptions. He also has great mobility and ran for 1,692 yards and 20 touchdowns during his two college seasons. He hasn’t yet been active for an NFL game, and he probably won’t be unless either Stafford or Wolford gets hurt.
Matthew and Kelly Stafford have been together for over a decade. Kelly has seen Matthew play in Georgia, Detroit and now Los Angeles.
The Rams quarterback doesn’t share too much about his private life, but his wife Kelly certainly does. With her large social media following, Kelly posts photos of their family pretty regularly. She also makes occasional headlines for some of her passionate outbreaks at games.
Here’s what you need to know about Matthew Stafford’s wife, Kelly.
Who is Matthew Stafford’s wife?
Kelly Stafford has become quite the celebrity herself despite just being married to tenured NFL quarterback Matthew.
As of January, Stafford has 300,000 followers on Instagram. She posts various photos of her personal life, including family outings or updates of their children. She also posts a lot about the Los Angeles Rams or her husband’s former team, the Detriot Lions.
How long have Matthew and Kelly Stafford been together?
The Staffords met while both students at the University of Georgia. Matthew was the Bulldogs’ starting quarterback from 2006-2008 until he was drafted by the Detriot Lions in 2009. Kelly was a year younger than Matthew. She was a football cheerleader during the time Matthew was quarterback.
Although its unclear exactly when the couple started dating, they eventually got engaged and married. The couple tied the knot on April 4, 2015 in Atlanta, Georgia.
The couple has four daughters together: twins Sawyer and Chandler, Hunter and Tyler.
Sawyer and Chandler were born in April 2016, making them five years old. Hunter was born in August 2018, making her three years old. Then, Tyler was born in July 2020, making her about a year and half.
Kelly Stafford’s cancer battle
In April 2019, Kelly noticed she was having spells of vertigo. She went to the doctor to get it looked at, only for it to be discovered that she had a brain tumor.
After surgery to remove the tumor, Kelly has remained cancer-free. She posted in April 2021 that she had two years of clean cancer scans.
Kelly was very open about her experience with the tumor. She even wrote a detailed account of her experience that was published on ESPN. She also posted updates throughout her experience on Instagram.
In September 2021, Kelly began a podcast called “The morning after with Kelly Stafford.” So far, Kelly has completed 19 podcast episodes that are released weekly. She covers topics in her personal life, including sharing details about her relationship with husband Matthew, along with mothering experiences. She even detailed the “pretzelgate” incident that happened back in November. Needless to say, Kelly does not hold back talking about anything on her podcast.
