Tips
Skin Prep & Foundation
Skin is prepped with MAC Prep + Prime Fix+ and Benefit The POREfessional primer on the T-zone. A lightweight fluid foundation (Becca Aqua Luminous) provides sheer radiance across the face.
Concealing & Setting
Benefit Boi-ing full-coverage concealer brightens under the eyes, which is then blended out using a dense Morphe brush and pressed with a Real Techniques sponge before setting with Laura Mercier translucent powder.
Eye Contour & Winged Liner
The eyes are primed with Benefit Lemon Aid and set with powder. Neutral warm tones from the Manny MUA Makeup Geek palette are blended into the crease, topped with a shimmery champagne lid color and finished with a sharp black gel winged liner.
Lashes, Cheeks & Lips
Natural lashes are curled and paired with false lashes. Cheeks are sculpted with bronzer, blush, and golden highlighter. The look finishes with defined brows and a hydrated rosy-pink lip.
