<h2>Flirt with a Classic Red Lip</h2>
<p>Nothing says Valentine's Day quite like a bold, red lip. It's classic, empowering, and undeniably romantic. For a long-lasting effect, begin by exfoliating your lips and follow up with a hydrating lip balm. Outline your lips with a lip liner that matches your chosen shade of red, then fill in with your lipstick. Opt for a matte finish if you're aiming for endurance through dinner and drinks, or go for a gloss if you're keeping it casual and want that extra pop of shine.</p><p>My current favorite red lipstick is the <a href="https://amzn.to/484Xy18" target="_blank">Maybelline Vinyl Ink in Wicked</a> - It's a longwear glossy stain and the red is so rich and vibrant.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhljo4tIS2uyC-EuDDcj201HlelY8X_QqlSpKAAMS4IZEf_Z34Qg0W0L8AADUdWOfkSW7K-pQ2lOrtfIRhhLWmYJjo-NnzXiaoow_gIq6BM-Kik5qPajUXYoCqPkDkhLy2QMKn10OQZe1H5u6gdn8iH3a8MPRG6H2ldoqbdQUl6UU0KrTRgAP-rPcojaEA/s568/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-02%20at%208.07.04%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="568" data-original-width="445" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhljo4tIS2uyC-EuDDcj201HlelY8X_QqlSpKAAMS4IZEf_Z34Qg0W0L8AADUdWOfkSW7K-pQ2lOrtfIRhhLWmYJjo-NnzXiaoow_gIq6BM-Kik5qPajUXYoCqPkDkhLy2QMKn10OQZe1H5u6gdn8iH3a8MPRG6H2ldoqbdQUl6UU0KrTRgAP-rPcojaEA/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-02%20at%208.07.04%20AM.png" width="251" /></a></div><br /><br /></div>
<h2>Romantic Eyes</h2>
<p>Let your eyes do the talking with a soft, romantic look. I love playing with rose and pink tones for Valentines Day. You can even place one of your favorite blush colors in your crease just make sure it's a matte finish. I like to finish it off with a bit of shimmer in the center of the lid to bring light to the lid.</p>
I love this <a href="https://amzn.to/3w0NOI0" target="_blank">Mauves eyeshadow palette from Juvia's place</a>. It's super affordable and works on all skin tones. And a bonus, the pans are big enough so you can use the shadows for blush or cheek highlight.<div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2C-eADSr3ZixBSeUHyYPm7tyryHpzGx6e9hSMmHzhQPjNV6vYUCQ7RFAR2l11Djn3N3dAFaN-L2oOJaXqMuVaLBLFSGXp90jumeDRaHtYRjamqix_1X2Fig4VZXplGjmPlObaf5D04EHa4zwN2lQ0Fj9OJsmVwx2nFvsfJprtrOHnSXOQ2yeeMWly4fo/s488/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.05.36%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="488" data-original-width="361" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh2C-eADSr3ZixBSeUHyYPm7tyryHpzGx6e9hSMmHzhQPjNV6vYUCQ7RFAR2l11Djn3N3dAFaN-L2oOJaXqMuVaLBLFSGXp90jumeDRaHtYRjamqix_1X2Fig4VZXplGjmPlObaf5D04EHa4zwN2lQ0Fj9OJsmVwx2nFvsfJprtrOHnSXOQ2yeeMWly4fo/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.05.36%20PM.png" width="237" /></a></div><br /><div><br />
<h2>Radiate Love with a Healthy Glow</h2>
<p>What doesn't say love more than a glow—and makeup helps! I love pairing my foundation with a liquid illuminizer - you can wear it under foundation for a super natural glow, or on top of foundation - on your cheekbones for even more shine. Next apply a cream blush in a pinky tone to give that flushed in love look. Some of my favorite liquid illuminizers are the <a href="https://amzn.to/3Oskd0G" target="_blank">L'Oreal Lumi Glotion</a> - they're big enough where you can apply them on the face and body.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGZA_HmtydC9U4MJdnyyJKcOdYXdOb0780cpEeWRhZbHf-bzunTOKz22YSHche_gZutE0MfyDIy1hO291790ISuEap2_YWri5Ha4rLrZIKXhyu5avZ8w-gGxI-D7XARe_7JWkafn1odSpM0P4aE9p4zFoggxmlG5_dvD16JIScMlbmV6mUL1Vl1wPGGB8/s428/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.12.04%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="269" data-original-width="428" height="201" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgGZA_HmtydC9U4MJdnyyJKcOdYXdOb0780cpEeWRhZbHf-bzunTOKz22YSHche_gZutE0MfyDIy1hO291790ISuEap2_YWri5Ha4rLrZIKXhyu5avZ8w-gGxI-D7XARe_7JWkafn1odSpM0P4aE9p4zFoggxmlG5_dvD16JIScMlbmV6mUL1Vl1wPGGB8/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.12.04%20PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p>
<h2>Set the Scene with a Scented Setting Spray</h2>
<p>Finish off your look and ensure it lasts from dusk till dawn with a setting spray. Dry skin types should choose a hydrating mist and oily skin should go for something more mattifying. I love the <a href="https://amzn.to/4bnaX7F" target="_blank">IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better Setting Spray</a> because it's perfect for the February cold weather and smells like yummy coconuts.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbZUEG3PVPG0E2EJFYmJlhStXHopA40Kjj5aXKx8OlaQdbKxnLAlysdcQMUea5zvuhIB8qDMtANggm9ITK5Zz-9Jvf9M1-N3_oey9uYYmM87uMFiLMEVVa0EfsCK1H-tWevjtIT-LPHXG4-O_SVAvdRneISQesuybF3wz2d_kuI6FiKkTRvRRvTaeZD30/s519/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.13.40%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="519" data-original-width="274" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbZUEG3PVPG0E2EJFYmJlhStXHopA40Kjj5aXKx8OlaQdbKxnLAlysdcQMUea5zvuhIB8qDMtANggm9ITK5Zz-9Jvf9M1-N3_oey9uYYmM87uMFiLMEVVa0EfsCK1H-tWevjtIT-LPHXG4-O_SVAvdRneISQesuybF3wz2d_kuI6FiKkTRvRRvTaeZD30/s320/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.13.40%20PM.png" width="169" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>
<h2>Don't Forget the Finishing Touches</h2>
<p>Valentine's Day is the perfect excuse to sprinkle in some extra-special details. This is the time to pull out the fun stuff like <a href="https://amzn.to/49mhgGX" target="_blank">face gems</a> and false lashes. To make your life easier, get the stick on rhinestones, they're so much quicker to apply!</p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjfaGeoy9W9WKJTwPEDY0UgXl5T7OkQ0wmKWCYC4cYgiV5ZpEGPbbts2yS-WkQsGQJdXn9MV5n0BCTyypDyuhOWIZK-0eKijvX46h9lAytw3PWAPiaQwHt2_W1Az16ji1jHjaeqJS7RZkwa45qSWjvzCkexJcQYSA5zwikdDOV4f3VyLRS7ESusIVTkLs/s177/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.15.34%20PM.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="176" data-original-width="177" height="176" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjfaGeoy9W9WKJTwPEDY0UgXl5T7OkQ0wmKWCYC4cYgiV5ZpEGPbbts2yS-WkQsGQJdXn9MV5n0BCTyypDyuhOWIZK-0eKijvX46h9lAytw3PWAPiaQwHt2_W1Az16ji1jHjaeqJS7RZkwa45qSWjvzCkexJcQYSA5zwikdDOV4f3VyLRS7ESusIVTkLs/s1600/Screen%20Shot%202024-02-01%20at%207.15.34%20PM.png" width="177" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">Remember, the most important thing is to wear your look with confidence.

Make skincare a top priority in 2024 by committing to a consistent and effective routine. Explore different products and techniques that cater to your specific skin concerns. It can be overwhelming. I recommend find a brand within your budget and stick with the products in that line because they're meant to pair together. Start with the basics - facial cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliator and sunscreen. Pick a line that goes with your skin type - are you dry, sensitive, acne prone, mature skin?

Try a fun pop of color. You never know whether you like it unless you try it. That's how I felt about red lips - I thought I hated them until one day I gave them a shot and fell in love. If you're looking for a really good red, I recommend <a href="https://amzn.to/3TCqkTo" target="_blank">Bawse Lady from The Lip Bar</a> - gorgeous! You can also try pairing a bright eyeliner with your neutral eyeshadows. My favorite liners are <a href="https://amzn.to/48fgGKZ" target="_blank">Urban Decay 24/7 Liner Pencils</a> because they have so many shades, apply creamy on, but last all day. Makeup is meant to be fun. It wipes off at the end of the night so it's an easy way to accessorize your face. </span><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br /></span></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCEthhsQLE_6b6rp9hsvVXkoE6w0CLEJaH7J_DzBQc_BosEGtHlxWfyBVOJTk1ZZ9t_yafo-Lkbx35shVmdCXEwuAHyWFLr2T63QfRdFrwZpKBe_7TqV5Q6KngCPQuVM33fARx4SogoYikfunqkyBCqeD_97I4mFPlf8WG7ysw6ZQFrQT3Q3RXlNqe87o/s432/Screen%20Shot%202023-12-31%20at%2010.50.53%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="432" data-original-width="353" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhCEthhsQLE_6b6rp9hsvVXkoE6w0CLEJaH7J_DzBQc_BosEGtHlxWfyBVOJTk1ZZ9t_yafo-Lkbx35shVmdCXEwuAHyWFLr2T63QfRdFrwZpKBe_7TqV5Q6KngCPQuVM33fARx4SogoYikfunqkyBCqeD_97I4mFPlf8WG7ysw6ZQFrQT3Q3RXlNqe87o/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-12-31%20at%2010.50.53%20AM.png" width="261" /></a></div><br /><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br /></span><div><span style="white-space-collapse: preserve;"><br /></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: inherit; white-space-collapse: preserve;"><b>Perfect Your Base: </b>The biggest game changer I find with my makeup clients is finding the right foundation for them.

Whether you have dry, oily, combination, or sensitive skin, different foundations cater to different skin types. For example, if you have oily skin, you might want to opt for oil-free, mattifying foundations. On the other hand, if you have dry skin, a hydrating or dewy foundation could be your best friend. One of my favorite brands for clients is NARS - they have different formulas for different skin types such as their Light Reflecting Foundation for dry skin and Radiant Long Wear Foundation for Oily Skin.","type":"unstyled","depth":0,"inlineStyleRanges":[{"offset":1,"length":25,"style":"BOLD"}],"entityRanges":[],"data":{"dynamicStyles":{"padding-top":"0.25rem","padding-bottom":"0.25rem"}}},{"key":"58qqc","text":"\nKnow Your Undertone\nNext, determine your skin’s undertone.

Firstly, it's crucial to identify your skin type. Whether you have dry, oily, combination, or sensitive skin, different foundations cater to different skin types. For example, if you have oily skin, you might want to opt for oil-free, mattifying foundations. On the other hand, if you have dry skin, a hydrating or dewy foundation could be your best friend. One of my favorite brands for clients is NARS - they have different formulas for different skin types such as their Light Reflecting Foundation for dry skin and Radiant Long Wear Foundation for Oily Skin.</span></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="54ipk-0-0"><span data-offset-key="54ipk-0-2"><br /></span></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="54ipk-0-0"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGt0nB-ch390XO_SgDKPr-uRofVtaL-WrfU26_R2brAsaSL8slHWsvJtkQuqPQMaunrLFBM-YTOQuL0p5-hNRewJS9aAIcN209nDKKJhKrzS39wF2_23WcdaXNA-IMP8SnkAFOjDLv3-boL5QX3_MzJ0mmjs1JTmH8BKLrnJ8riqqytGppmbGtwRlNHOs/s306/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.13.31%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="306" data-original-width="221" height="306" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGt0nB-ch390XO_SgDKPr-uRofVtaL-WrfU26_R2brAsaSL8slHWsvJtkQuqPQMaunrLFBM-YTOQuL0p5-hNRewJS9aAIcN209nDKKJhKrzS39wF2_23WcdaXNA-IMP8SnkAFOjDLv3-boL5QX3_MzJ0mmjs1JTmH8BKLrnJ8riqqytGppmbGtwRlNHOs/s1600/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.13.31%20AM.png" width="221" /></a></div></div></div><div class="JvlZN rqyPc p7Opnu public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr fixed-tab-size rich_content_padding-top-0_25rem rich_content_padding-bottom-0_25rem rich_content_P" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="a42qu-0-0"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="a42qu-0-0"><span data-offset-key="a42qu-0-0">
</span><span data-offset-key="a42qu-0-1" style="font-weight: bold;">2) Know Your Undertone</span><span data-offset-key="a42qu-0-2">
Next, determine your skin’s undertone. Are you cool, warm, or neutral? This will significantly influence the shade of foundation that will best match your skin. I recommend looking at your face as well as your body. Do you have a natural tan to your shoulders with a yellow tone - you may be warm. If you tend to burn easily, and have a pink tone to the body you may be cool. Look for Neutral, Cool or Warm labels on most Foundation but be aware that some brands have a more complicated undertone system - for example MAC has NC for Neutral Cool or Warm undertones and NW for Neutral Warm or Cool Undertones. </span></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="a42qu-0-0"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSyd1ROEebZwoK8fsoLG5AQ_rC3XS499PuCYsLBO3_0H0kblCrhRNcIvAGfnlOUUNUUH5YjGZDQh5H2Jo2rJMWt7ZS-0cSb-41ISL-ZbCaNcgkJr-HxVaT7XSNkJ22jjgKa5pRvlDWo0I48Hn_z2HXq5k8Vu6zjaGctoel2CgLnLMAMffh4DXkRvxI9Js/s293/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.19.05%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="293" data-original-width="206" height="293" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgSyd1ROEebZwoK8fsoLG5AQ_rC3XS499PuCYsLBO3_0H0kblCrhRNcIvAGfnlOUUNUUH5YjGZDQh5H2Jo2rJMWt7ZS-0cSb-41ISL-ZbCaNcgkJr-HxVaT7XSNkJ22jjgKa5pRvlDWo0I48Hn_z2HXq5k8Vu6zjaGctoel2CgLnLMAMffh4DXkRvxI9Js/s1600/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.19.05%20AM.png" width="206" /></a></div><span data-offset-key="a42qu-0-2"><br /></span></div></div><div class="JvlZN rqyPc p7Opnu public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr fixed-tab-size rich_content_padding-top-0_25rem rich_content_padding-bottom-0_25rem rich_content_P" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="fufkc-0-0"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="fufkc-0-0"><span data-offset-key="fufkc-0-0">
</span><span data-offset-key="fufkc-0-1" style="font-weight: bold;">Decide on Coverage Level</span><span data-offset-key="fufkc-0-2">
The level of coverage you desire is another key factor. Do you prefer a natural look with light coverage, or do you seek full coverage to cover up discoloration? There's no right or wrong answer here; it's all about personal preference and the look you're aiming for. Don't forget different foundation brushes can also affect the level of coverage - I prefer rounded synthetic styles like this <a href="https://amzn.to/3F4etVq" target="_blank">IT Cosmetics Foundation brush</a> because it blends like a dream. </span></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="fufkc-0-0"><span data-offset-key="fufkc-0-2"><br /></span></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="fufkc-0-0"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ymVbjqzKWPagbHi6ejwilNqnsr-nxVqlLAzOSqTynawguaeECn3k8aXSlGTW5t7EE7T59q0J_mS8XgnH-mJSo8Da4N6lYcR39lZ5DHocrzw30woCVGMdn54hk5jHAVu_iJ1TfGD8N7vi-YmFbhvOtDvI8v8CtwIRtxfP2OVGM0W8FcxNIXVtZgQHKBo/s445/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.17.59%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="445" data-original-width="206" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1ymVbjqzKWPagbHi6ejwilNqnsr-nxVqlLAzOSqTynawguaeECn3k8aXSlGTW5t7EE7T59q0J_mS8XgnH-mJSo8Da4N6lYcR39lZ5DHocrzw30woCVGMdn54hk5jHAVu_iJ1TfGD8N7vi-YmFbhvOtDvI8v8CtwIRtxfP2OVGM0W8FcxNIXVtZgQHKBo/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.17.59%20AM.png" width="148" /></a></div><br /></div></div><div class="JvlZN rqyPc p7Opnu public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr fixed-tab-size rich_content_padding-top-0_25rem rich_content_padding-bottom-0_25rem rich_content_P" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="4se3s-0-0"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="4se3s-0-0"><span data-offset-key="4se3s-0-1" style="font-weight: bold;">Consider Your Lifestyle</span><span data-offset-key="4se3s-0-2">
Lastly, consider your lifestyle. If you don't have a lot of time in the morning, a tinted moisturizer might be for you. If you spend a lot of time outdoors, a foundation with SPF would be beneficial. Remember, your foundation should work with you, not against you. You'll want to pick a foundation that you feel comfortable applying that suits your lifestyle.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTI53SJswxor6ftJdsoy7OdtlFUZfhRiE1XV865LLvxaL58hjhthJXqvDwsiqONF8pJGDUQDEDGRAzfD44IsViYVQOgOsRl8564I-GffHvXRb6Vye9tCqLvRjuZz9NOid15Q42-p6LO7jngJ8VTImuX8ZCz9u1mKZEKiwmhj3rbCDcxE-_EwjLf1asdxQ/s471/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.12.52%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em; text-align: center;"><img border="0" data-original-height="471" data-original-width="253" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTI53SJswxor6ftJdsoy7OdtlFUZfhRiE1XV865LLvxaL58hjhthJXqvDwsiqONF8pJGDUQDEDGRAzfD44IsViYVQOgOsRl8564I-GffHvXRb6Vye9tCqLvRjuZz9NOid15Q42-p6LO7jngJ8VTImuX8ZCz9u1mKZEKiwmhj3rbCDcxE-_EwjLf1asdxQ/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-10-01%20at%2011.12.52%20AM.png" width="172" /></a></div><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="4se3s-0-0"><span data-offset-key="4se3s-0-2">

Switch Up Your Foundation: </b>One of the most important things to consider when switching seasons is changing your foundation. As the weather cools down, your skin may become drier than usual, so switch to a foundation that offers a more hydrating formula. I also recommend looking into hydrating skincare like a serum with hyaluronic acid as well as some refreshing facial mists. My favorite is <a href="https://amzn.to/45DQxUI">Mario Badescu Herbal Hydrating Serum</a>. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqi_PnRA4HlBXSxdlhYkV12pSnHLcKeiB5MOLB8sw0B9RJSXMkvlBlVI3B_mWraa_aShsgM1MnKVCZlqRt6ITvN7MJlPODBTXVhh-iO3bnXEbHAUOAUq5hyhzL8cVtL4-1XSElrR8boQ7VOck1cg-IZ68YRyXKKKO33PQTEy_sHxdmuiavUO2i4imdJPw/s391/Screen%20Shot%202023-09-03%20at%203.39.33%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="391" data-original-width="275" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqi_PnRA4HlBXSxdlhYkV12pSnHLcKeiB5MOLB8sw0B9RJSXMkvlBlVI3B_mWraa_aShsgM1MnKVCZlqRt6ITvN7MJlPODBTXVhh-iO3bnXEbHAUOAUq5hyhzL8cVtL4-1XSElrR8boQ7VOck1cg-IZ68YRyXKKKO33PQTEy_sHxdmuiavUO2i4imdJPw/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-09-03%20at%203.39.33%20PM.png" width="225" /></a></div><p><b>2. Play With Warmer Tones: </b>Fall is all about warm shades! It's time to set aside those bright and bold summer shades and switch to the warm tones of fall. Think the colors of Falling leaves like browns, oranges, and deep reds. Experiment with eyeshadows, blushes and lipsticks to create that perfect autumn look. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlSeNE72trsJZChAwq2jpRNfDGhcTBuciBbFENnEDP_hFTyVqNsh6wUVxZDHd5BxCSHEEZ__E231Xr3WMlBlJF7HK4mr5F9V2nUoUcJVxludep-q-EcZpOcBOtQSmHymbOIel8YtomcaW9icx9GrqwmJYfZD7BIsEUGdXAzak2JSFMFrquExbP-VbVFBU/s6640/ABC_0911.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6640" data-original-width="4912" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjlSeNE72trsJZChAwq2jpRNfDGhcTBuciBbFENnEDP_hFTyVqNsh6wUVxZDHd5BxCSHEEZ__E231Xr3WMlBlJF7HK4mr5F9V2nUoUcJVxludep-q-EcZpOcBOtQSmHymbOIel8YtomcaW9icx9GrqwmJYfZD7BIsEUGdXAzak2JSFMFrquExbP-VbVFBU/s320/ABC_0911.jpg" width="237" /></a></p><p><b>3. Experiment with Statement Lip Colors:</b> Fall is the perfect time to experiment with deeper lipstick shades like wine tones and browns are also so in - think "latte makeup". Lipstick is a quick way to switch up your makeup routine, and there's no better time to do it than in the fall season. Keep it interesting by pairing it with a deeper lip liner to give contrast or experiment with a different finish like metallic or gloss. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ccUFzfzjGablXYKv1jj8YkqH1iwWnsfmR3NMRuHbE3v2eLaxAqzuFb96hqKOdrrqlwOO1avDvr6mpO3SyGn2Eb_FT0Kg2KW4eCCmMq0Nbi72vlvBq9vX4rqH4VaDODyhhdVgifqbmfkjr3A2JeXan7XCLek_q4JlhEVegWOC_1o7j8AKw31m6BIooFI/s3672/IMG_9952.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3672" data-original-width="2912" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4ccUFzfzjGablXYKv1jj8YkqH1iwWnsfmR3NMRuHbE3v2eLaxAqzuFb96hqKOdrrqlwOO1avDvr6mpO3SyGn2Eb_FT0Kg2KW4eCCmMq0Nbi72vlvBq9vX4rqH4VaDODyhhdVgifqbmfkjr3A2JeXan7XCLek_q4JlhEVegWOC_1o7j8AKw31m6BIooFI/s320/IMG_9952.jpg" width="254" /></a></div><p><b>4. Go Matte </b>- There's something about Fall that calls for more subdued, matte tones. Try experimenting with a matte lipstick in a Fall friendly shade. Just make sure to exfoliate and hydrate your lips first so that lip application is smooth. Some of my favorite matte lipsticks are from Ofra Cosmetics.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpsjiavKjCN1hSDyyMzfGA3YGv9lWg74RXd0uCIbcOPA-6ABbBlezNzaVAZ4h7TiTDI8ArjjzUSXjIc9cUdClSaAajhbkETTHO9tlCPtQ2vWMkRAACcCamUEK2jo6dav5rDdQS4-bdLqTzrzEYodLIi7_aH0nWnmGbZyxSjuEESkyX4wFY6JGm1500NoM/s1203/AMTB--21small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1203" data-original-width="803" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpsjiavKjCN1hSDyyMzfGA3YGv9lWg74RXd0uCIbcOPA-6ABbBlezNzaVAZ4h7TiTDI8ArjjzUSXjIc9cUdClSaAajhbkETTHO9tlCPtQ2vWMkRAACcCamUEK2jo6dav5rDdQS4-bdLqTzrzEYodLIi7_aH0nWnmGbZyxSjuEESkyX4wFY6JGm1500NoM/s320/AMTB--21small.jpg" width="214" /></a></p><p><b>5. Set It and Forget It </b>- With more sweaters and cooler weather clothing, we definitely don't want makeup rubbing off. My current favorite long lasting product is <a href="https://amzn.to/3PpsJhR" target="_blank">Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Setting Spray</a>. I spray it before and after my makeup routine to make sure my makeup lasts and is transfer resistant. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="text-align: left;">As you can see, transitioning your makeup routine to fall doesn't have to be complicated.

With the new movie, young and alike are turning out their best Barbie glam. Barbie, an iconic figure that has transcended generations, continues to inspire us all. With her flawless complexion, vibrant eyeshadow, and perfect pout, Barbie has become a makeup muse for many. So, how can you recreate this iconic look? Here's a step-by-step guide to achieving the perfect Barbie makeup look.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ8jWFbfaygsI6zGvJjC9PZngt2XaRptZhze6qCs-yuu_-BrvpdvP0U-bWnIV5KsSkWFJYTufvnXUHn4tdkK0hzMUPtxELup4PZR8q0Xe9sEvZxDZPdSu6n4PhldOFQh5BxVxrhMGAfKKSkqjwTs3p30m8VpVjanfip8JVR87DzJYWEf7t-uHbGX-0tq4/s512/JasperArt_2023-07-30_18.58.51.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="512" data-original-width="512" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQ8jWFbfaygsI6zGvJjC9PZngt2XaRptZhze6qCs-yuu_-BrvpdvP0U-bWnIV5KsSkWFJYTufvnXUHn4tdkK0hzMUPtxELup4PZR8q0Xe9sEvZxDZPdSu6n4PhldOFQh5BxVxrhMGAfKKSkqjwTs3p30m8VpVjanfip8JVR87DzJYWEf7t-uHbGX-0tq4/s320/JasperArt_2023-07-30_18.58.51.png" width="320" /></a></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><h2>Step 1: Skin Prep</h2><p>Before any makeup application, it's crucial to start with clean, exfoliated and well-moisturized skin. This will ensure a smooth canvas for your makeup and help it last longer. Barbie is known for her flawless complexion, so opt for a medium to full coverage foundation. I personally love that Barbie's skin is plastic and fantastic, so I recommend going for a satin or dewy glow. My recommendation to clients is <a href="https://amzn.to/3rQ5NyM" target="_blank">NARS light reflecting foundation</a>.</p><p style="text-align: center;">

To capture her signature look, I'd choose one bold color such as blue and hot pink and place it on your lid as your focus color. To get color impact, try placing a colored pencil or jumbo crayon underneath the eyeshadow to make it pop. Check out this super fun <a href="https://amzn.to/3Km1MbX" target="_blank">NYX Eyeshadow palette</a> - it has all the fun barbie colors.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7jN0BZy3lZ1IrWxu9I5EUQKEUilZeGs26R9_geAMmfQTnOEPOV99ImADvIsXz9lExfKxy8JxXKAjyvyZjnCj3MR6LEkfT7gAIpBEAEJO3Ati1YFQb0BXQKErvLebCtS3C0V-BI0CIhPjYelLX--zJDKvFDNd-jy2Jp3BltJ5Lbit0aAhINqWO37zQCM/s512/JasperArt_2023-07-31_09.01.34.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="512" data-original-width="512" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio7jN0BZy3lZ1IrWxu9I5EUQKEUilZeGs26R9_geAMmfQTnOEPOV99ImADvIsXz9lExfKxy8JxXKAjyvyZjnCj3MR6LEkfT7gAIpBEAEJO3Ati1YFQb0BXQKErvLebCtS3C0V-BI0CIhPjYelLX--zJDKvFDNd-jy2Jp3BltJ5Lbit0aAhINqWO37zQCM/s320/JasperArt_2023-07-31_09.01.34.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><h2>Step 3: Eyeliner</h2><div style="text-align: left;">To make your eyes pop like Barbie's, apply a winged eyeliner. This will give your eyes a larger appearance and add a touch of drama to the look<span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">. </span>If you're a beginner, try applying a winged liner using a dark eyeshadow on an angled liner brush. For my pros, I recommend liquid or gel liner. My favorite is the makeup artist cult favorite <a href="https://amzn.to/3Yc6D53">Inglot AMC Gel Liner shade #77</a>.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUIDgcbHqiw9lgVX_KNDUAaJFtA5X4M5acrKu2PZDyHfO6j_EYcLWWBXHRYyUPXAWey73ACF7RJ55sKnGkyTzQAaGkMv0K8Grdi0Hf3RGbhdGtdwmno7cAZsqqlZXT1j1XuVDWajSxlz_iOrfFOgzVMCAsOkjps4Sg3M-vq66_XQGz3WgsXq6aXK0VsnY/s430/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.18.42%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="394" data-original-width="430" height="293" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiUIDgcbHqiw9lgVX_KNDUAaJFtA5X4M5acrKu2PZDyHfO6j_EYcLWWBXHRYyUPXAWey73ACF7RJ55sKnGkyTzQAaGkMv0K8Grdi0Hf3RGbhdGtdwmno7cAZsqqlZXT1j1XuVDWajSxlz_iOrfFOgzVMCAsOkjps4Sg3M-vq66_XQGz3WgsXq6aXK0VsnY/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.18.42%20AM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><h2>Step 4: Lashes</h2><p>To complete the eye makeup, apply generous coats of mascara. This will give your lashes volume and length, just like Barbie's. And I never say no to a pair of good false lashes. Try going for a wispy pair to keep the eyes open. My go to's our <a href="https://amzn.to/3YdteOC" target="_blank">Ardell Demi Wispies</a>.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3XZADz131pwPZLhq8TwEBS11osQhuamdXND-5uugHiHyj3aUBWVzwT9x96uGJGeY1JwnZKtWVtTT4a4cb4ofd_qF3XTHni0KUDpgh9X-LbvUH7tM26NLL-gtoRYNDkqNQdKqrTT29yfEsQp80BXVP979lW8a_6VSYql39_fnlGHvMc9ywiaCORnYvnBs/s530/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.20.26%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="530" data-original-width="436" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj3XZADz131pwPZLhq8TwEBS11osQhuamdXND-5uugHiHyj3aUBWVzwT9x96uGJGeY1JwnZKtWVtTT4a4cb4ofd_qF3XTHni0KUDpgh9X-LbvUH7tM26NLL-gtoRYNDkqNQdKqrTT29yfEsQp80BXVP979lW8a_6VSYql39_fnlGHvMc9ywiaCORnYvnBs/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.20.26%20AM.png" width="263" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><h2>Step 5: Blush and Highlight</h2><p>Barbie's cheeks always have a rosy glow. Don't be timid with blush, in this case more is more! Choose a hot pink or fuchsia color on the apples of your cheeks. This <a href="https://amzn.to/3Qk3qyl" target="_blank">NYX blush in electro</a> is the perfect vibrant shade. Don't forget to add a shimmery highlighter on the high points of your face for that perfect Barbie-like glow<span style="font-size: 13.3333px;">.</span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH11-gjvm0Z8-MkoM2xURmLWDMPw5P1YXRF-j727XpmYOIR4H7e13FjKvwsoRnPHkcwsngvWtuy1u03JhI2K5MadzOfZgwqoTsDQLoUsbGNnnGODlOFcz7B5apuPeNEBSORfwk1PxNTWD057MtD7wR3Idx2fsqrX02Hvf-ISd42Hpmyu0d7prg4qHv-NM/s516/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.24.26%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="516" data-original-width="504" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhH11-gjvm0Z8-MkoM2xURmLWDMPw5P1YXRF-j727XpmYOIR4H7e13FjKvwsoRnPHkcwsngvWtuy1u03JhI2K5MadzOfZgwqoTsDQLoUsbGNnnGODlOFcz7B5apuPeNEBSORfwk1PxNTWD057MtD7wR3Idx2fsqrX02Hvf-ISd42Hpmyu0d7prg4qHv-NM/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-31%20at%209.24.26%20AM.png" width="313" /></a></div><h2 style="text-align: center;"><br /></h2><h2>Step 6: Lips</h2><p>Finish off the look with a bold pink lip color. Barbie is rarely seen without her signature pink pout. I recommend lining the lips with a bold pink liner first, then filling it in with your favorite lipstick. I love MAC Lipstick in Candy Yum Yum - the perfect hot pink.</p><p>

Start with cleansed skin. I'm currently loving the <a href="https://amzn.to/3O7cIwp" target="_blank">Paula's Choice Gentle Skin Cleanser </a>- it feels really good on and cleans without stripping and is great for sensitive skin. Make sure you exfoliate at least twice a week. I recommend an exfoliating toner with ingredients like glycolic acid. I always recommend the <a href="https://amzn.to/43eQk8h">Pixi Glow Tonic</a>, been using it for years. There's a reason why it's a tik tok favorite. Next apply a serum - I'm all about hydration - hyaluronic acid is a great ingredient. Eye cream is next - don't skip this step, it's wear we show our age the most. Lastly, apply a moisturizer with SPF protection. Hydrated skin ensures that makeup goes on smoothly and SPF keeps harmful UV rays at bay.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2e4mq0LEq-mNKq9WnZmgnf7JQpoHLtV_C4MG04WajAT7snHpv_AoRRMwPsMPACeZeQaKXve2viuYo2BA-pABRxxa-z_LmtV4bL7ipY7_MfojiSFKP1ybJesM0lufrXU5xHbiyDr1LZGhf2b4gOz6lXRmnJz7JTPNEvy3ceseSdHJ8uk0VhxDj4LnxrXY/s496/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.11.01%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="496" data-original-width="334" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj2e4mq0LEq-mNKq9WnZmgnf7JQpoHLtV_C4MG04WajAT7snHpv_AoRRMwPsMPACeZeQaKXve2viuYo2BA-pABRxxa-z_LmtV4bL7ipY7_MfojiSFKP1ybJesM0lufrXU5xHbiyDr1LZGhf2b4gOz6lXRmnJz7JTPNEvy3ceseSdHJ8uk0VhxDj4LnxrXY/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.11.01%20PM.png" width="215" /></a></div><br /><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><span style="background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

It not only helps your makeup last longer, but it also smooths out fine lines and pores, giving your skin a flawless finish. Look for a primer with hydrating properties to keep your skin moisturized throughout the day. I also recommend a primer with dimethicone which can help fill in any fine lines and helps foundation glide on smoothly. Illuminating primers are also great because the fine sheen in them helps to make skin glow.

Everytime I give a makeup lesson, this is the biggest mistake I see that is aging my client. Instead, opt for a lightweight, hydrating foundation or a tinted moisturizer. These products offer a natural look and feel, and they let your skin breathe. My current go to foundation is the <a href="https://amzn.to/3JIO2Yd" target="_blank">Armani Luminous Silk Foundation</a> - I wore this on my wedding day and it seems like they've extended their shade range which I'm so happy about. I just bought it in shade 7.5 and my skin was radiant for my 40th birthday in Vegas. </p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0jOXO43sFwYk0jLYF7OAb3bqVE4lv--2Tupdq4SvED6bjjOK0WIGOmb-Y05oWW0sJb9jfdMqLDXXnl8Evdz6fZhlwSgc1qU1TSv3AwVFoABotuFiL6wpHAEryXlJKRB9sjyMOopBN1kSZSq8hGV8jiCJWuVn34r52QChDo5_qd_2db8lo1DtR7REPqdE/s2160/AirBrush_20230629135008.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2160" data-original-width="1620" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0jOXO43sFwYk0jLYF7OAb3bqVE4lv--2Tupdq4SvED6bjjOK0WIGOmb-Y05oWW0sJb9jfdMqLDXXnl8Evdz6fZhlwSgc1qU1TSv3AwVFoABotuFiL6wpHAEryXlJKRB9sjyMOopBN1kSZSq8hGV8jiCJWuVn34r52QChDo5_qd_2db8lo1DtR7REPqdE/s320/AirBrush_20230629135008.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><br /><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">For everyday wear, I use my <a href="https://amzn.to/3pAD3JB">Laura Mercier tinted moisturizer</a> - because it's so sheer you're more likely to get a perfect shade match year round since your skin shines through and it also has SPF.

If you must use a powder, opt for a finely milled translucent one and apply sparingly. I'm loving the <a href="https://amzn.to/44898aK">Laura Mercier Ultra Blur Translucent Powder</a> as it blurs away fine lines. Focus on the T-zone where you're likely to get oily and under the eyes where our concealer tends to crease. You can also skip the power and instead use a Makeup Setting Spray - I love the <a href="https://amzn.to/44LlAgH">IT Cosmetics Setting Spray</a> because it's super hydrating but also makes your makeup last.</p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB-FKuf20XJ8xLuRyCZ5UYBoPiJUtmwphKOsYZtT_7nw2ys5sIG-8_z8bH1khBFAiSXpjTQdKmktIEZORHPA0evWVsWThtux4JLsxGYAxDj2vsNVskv5MnVv_drgxf5z6UWVO7fChMe0zgNVsU6W3pc7J608786yHGdN6taDbTWcurh44PEnknPnicRww/s479/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.25.27%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="335" data-original-width="479" height="224" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhB-FKuf20XJ8xLuRyCZ5UYBoPiJUtmwphKOsYZtT_7nw2ys5sIG-8_z8bH1khBFAiSXpjTQdKmktIEZORHPA0evWVsWThtux4JLsxGYAxDj2vsNVskv5MnVv_drgxf5z6UWVO7fChMe0zgNVsU6W3pc7J608786yHGdN6taDbTWcurh44PEnknPnicRww/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.25.27%20PM.png" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><span style="background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Cream blushes are great for mature skin as they blend beautifully and offer a dewy finish. Apply on the apples of your cheeks and blend upwards for a youthful lift.

If you go overboard with blush, I suggest using your foundation brush to help sheer it down.</p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj78VaX7jUF-Qc3AfkcdNys5AdAEBFC02pRa6kKcrSdot4UC3iOorqUJV_r3CCh8xqeLcDxQ2pEOj4ArTL3JUqQG8VrqjYI-EkzbItO3DCuxWRo48t9GEu4jc9LnLffs2c94-OXe6NjeG7JGQT6uV03H3Dl8mU3Nx82D3984w_w3tmzxxBqAcPpB5VZ5JQ/s383/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.28.11%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="383" data-original-width="282" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj78VaX7jUF-Qc3AfkcdNys5AdAEBFC02pRa6kKcrSdot4UC3iOorqUJV_r3CCh8xqeLcDxQ2pEOj4ArTL3JUqQG8VrqjYI-EkzbItO3DCuxWRo48t9GEu4jc9LnLffs2c94-OXe6NjeG7JGQT6uV03H3Dl8mU3Nx82D3984w_w3tmzxxBqAcPpB5VZ5JQ/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.28.11%20PM.png" width="236" /></a></div><br /><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><span style="background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

I recommend smoking out your eyeliner with a bit of eyeshadow on a pencil brush to soften it. My go to liners are the <a href="https://amzn.to/3PNBti2">Urban Decay 24/7 Liners</a> because they apply super creamy but then set to waterproof. A lash curler and mascara can do wonders for opening up your eyes. </p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuPxRZKh43zc4W4vT5JSP_v16I-ug68t_i8tLjdpM7rYWv3avikGfUhQM8diVQsAU-2ga8atOeWAvfnCv9QSH-rXn-hzlJwsM-vDEUFvKneIPZTjvnQqXjg_kka5jNxTqzzj2CXEka0BGYwRKshHv5SRU6Qfm2OfFs-fBzJZsrURBOGENy8Ws_hK73GAg/s451/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.31.27%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="451" data-original-width="340" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuPxRZKh43zc4W4vT5JSP_v16I-ug68t_i8tLjdpM7rYWv3avikGfUhQM8diVQsAU-2ga8atOeWAvfnCv9QSH-rXn-hzlJwsM-vDEUFvKneIPZTjvnQqXjg_kka5jNxTqzzj2CXEka0BGYwRKshHv5SRU6Qfm2OfFs-fBzJZsrURBOGENy8Ws_hK73GAg/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.31.27%20PM.png" width="241" /></a></div><br /><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><span style="background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; white-space: pre-wrap;">

Instead, go for hydrating lipsticks or glosses in neutral or brighter hues that complement your skin tone. I love to line the lips first to redefine the lip line and prevent feathering. Then I apply a creamy lipstick and top with a little gloss to plump and shine. My favorite lip pencils are from <a href="https://amzn.to/3NzZZ3I" target="_blank">NYX</a> - again super affordable and in a huge range of colors.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhb6ygytSaxM4ct_J3PwJ35mJ5A3_WHkysPt76rgKQosH1rGiO7A4WYxrnfFsHxxMdXvPKSrxQA2hzAdwnEb0YtjAr825_3pAiiEyY4679ynTtWDNvJzbezp9_2ivpAgUGha50T3tfmDooGfEQcxdPmHNZsIzL4MPSu7w2SjLH1X_wS-e_1bpShBkVKuI/s419/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.33.28%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="419" data-original-width="327" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjhb6ygytSaxM4ct_J3PwJ35mJ5A3_WHkysPt76rgKQosH1rGiO7A4WYxrnfFsHxxMdXvPKSrxQA2hzAdwnEb0YtjAr825_3pAiiEyY4679ynTtWDNvJzbezp9_2ivpAgUGha50T3tfmDooGfEQcxdPmHNZsIzL4MPSu7w2SjLH1X_wS-e_1bpShBkVKuI/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-07-02%20at%205.33.28%20PM.png" width="250" /></a></div><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; text-align: center; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br /></p><p class="my-0.5" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(63,131,248,.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: rgba(225, 239, 254, 0.5); border: 0px solid rgb(229, 231, 235); box-sizing: border-box; font-family: ui-sans-serif, system-ui, -apple-system, "system-ui", "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, "Noto Sans", sans-serif, "Apple Color Emoji", "Segoe UI Emoji", "Segoe UI Symbol", "Noto Color Emoji"; font-size: 16px; margin: 0.125rem 0px; white-space: pre-wrap;">Remember, makeup should be fun and empowering, no matter your age.

Hydrate, Hydrate, Hydrate</strong></p><p>When it comes to summer skin, hydration is key. Make sure to drink plenty of water throughout the day to keep your skin plump, glowing, and healthy. Don't forget to moisturize - I recommend a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer during the day and a richer cream at night to lock in that hydration. Your skin will thank you! I'm currently rocking <a href="https://amzn.to/3N2L7eW" target="_blank">IT Cosmetics Confidence in a Cream</a> as my daily moisturizer.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid6h27ogwkSy6qKNTXZayxKewDeMlPrj4_1Lgl_sZ_avBPasQv7w4tNEBiq6J9cQiwnCFPO8rAjZSu4dIUcSnNo8BaTHU6Yd_khO-IHM6l3DvKMSYBV_MkUlZpVIGMRC0nNFC9aULA_m8yuzkJkOYiZ3C3XDZ4cZWhR52zEh9TGXeTN5UweDYqFXnj/s6837/ABC_0534_RTCH.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6837" data-original-width="4884" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid6h27ogwkSy6qKNTXZayxKewDeMlPrj4_1Lgl_sZ_avBPasQv7w4tNEBiq6J9cQiwnCFPO8rAjZSu4dIUcSnNo8BaTHU6Yd_khO-IHM6l3DvKMSYBV_MkUlZpVIGMRC0nNFC9aULA_m8yuzkJkOYiZ3C3XDZ4cZWhR52zEh9TGXeTN5UweDYqFXnj/s320/ABC_0534_RTCH.jpg" width="229" /></a></div><p><strong>2. Don't Skimp on Sunscreen</strong></p><p>Sunscreen is your skin's best friend during the summer months. Choose a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30, and make sure to reapply, especially after swimming or sweating). Remember, protecting your skin from harmful UV rays not only prevents sunburn but also reduces the risk of premature aging and skin cancer. I'm currently rocking the <a href="https://amzn.to/43dHpoC" target="_blank">Supergoop Glow Screen</a> in Golden Hour under my makeup to give a beautiful illumination to the skin.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVzaCnQk9c5PCJfrAxGgizkRFHb4sgJWoQPlFRZWCAuoCQH5EX1E31FvJ8ApNwREYBuoeqSIskv2TGzD9VeEGuCXCjBiQ_dfhh0se5DhJG87xUkFGuCbGLrgJqGErRvcYWtU2M9BMkdYXlMGUrDVGLYRjO3JmUMvHiU9WOzIRcO0t8Ktc4rLv_AKw-/s470/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-29%20at%2012.21.52%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="470" data-original-width="259" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjVzaCnQk9c5PCJfrAxGgizkRFHb4sgJWoQPlFRZWCAuoCQH5EX1E31FvJ8ApNwREYBuoeqSIskv2TGzD9VeEGuCXCjBiQ_dfhh0se5DhJG87xUkFGuCbGLrgJqGErRvcYWtU2M9BMkdYXlMGUrDVGLYRjO3JmUMvHiU9WOzIRcO0t8Ktc4rLv_AKw-/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-29%20at%2012.21.52%20PM.png" width="176" /></a></div><br /><p><strong>3. Exfoliate Gently</strong></p><p>Exfoliation is crucial for maintaining smooth, radiant skin during the summer. Opt for a gentle exfoliator (like a scrub or a chemical exfoliant) and use it 2-3 times a week to remove dead skin cells and reveal a fresh, glowing complexion. Just be cautious not to over-exfoliate, as this can lead to irritation and increased sun sensitivity. One of my staples is <a href="https://amzn.to/3WK8rkX" target="_blank">Pixi Glow Tonic</a> for a gentle chemical exfoliation.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2T705gKDdvmMrPDX726EHWC7F2QO7fUGu8GaHMIVCutvIR-pkHyOJKHVWT4eaKNnjFY6YY2Mh3Xz3mDUwfKmmgHkoyrBrRF-4a5FUR6NMVutfnyq8Y7M_ec1zk172pEYJ1LS7Jhm6fEy2sznP9n_dPcpS6a3DnA1KanOpnDuVw0UiE2m1oBHxklgH/s328/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-29%20at%2012.24.47%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="328" data-original-width="219" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg2T705gKDdvmMrPDX726EHWC7F2QO7fUGu8GaHMIVCutvIR-pkHyOJKHVWT4eaKNnjFY6YY2Mh3Xz3mDUwfKmmgHkoyrBrRF-4a5FUR6NMVutfnyq8Y7M_ec1zk172pEYJ1LS7Jhm6fEy2sznP9n_dPcpS6a3DnA1KanOpnDuVw0UiE2m1oBHxklgH/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-29%20at%2012.24.47%20PM.png" width="214" /></a></div><p><strong>4. Go Light on Makeup</strong></p><p>Summer is the perfect time to embrace a more natural, minimal makeup look. Heavy makeup can clog pores and lead to breakouts, especially when combined with sweat and humidity. Instead, opt for lightweight, oil-free foundations or tinted moisturizers, cream blushes, and waterproof mascara to avoid smudging and melting. My current go to is the <a href="https://amzn.to/3IMKJyF" target="_blank">NARS tinted moisturizer in Santiago</a> it's a great shade for tan skin - and it has SPF30, bonus!</p><p>
<br />
</p><p><strong>5. Refresh with Face Mists</strong></p><p>Keep a refreshing face mist handy to cool and hydrate your skin throughout the day. Look for mists with soothing ingredients like aloe vera, cucumber, or chamomile to calm and nourish your skin. A quick spritz will not only feel amazing but also help set your makeup and give you that dewy, summer glow. I love the <a href="https://amzn.to/3IMQ8G8" target="_blank">IT Cosmetics Your Skin but Better Setting Spray</a> because it hydrates and sets at the same time and smells like yummy coconuts. It's also great for dry or mature skin.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL3n3L4Tks3LnA68FZujil3V_oQZx2-8MsjVc7sm4lpnDHjYx-ubJUHlwZhXIs_M2I9fvKCMa8BL0Ammsh1IkWIXnuvL2Oz28O6pIJ4W6GuQpoQreIF5T2-EnuKdx0QkgzCJtNO3kk6HkpLkMQwo14kiREWdAnAqEDiITZ-IUrv2HRkswutSETdqqb/s500/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-30%20at%205.07.36%20PM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="500" data-original-width="315" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL3n3L4Tks3LnA68FZujil3V_oQZx2-8MsjVc7sm4lpnDHjYx-ubJUHlwZhXIs_M2I9fvKCMa8BL0Ammsh1IkWIXnuvL2Oz28O6pIJ4W6GuQpoQreIF5T2-EnuKdx0QkgzCJtNO3kk6HkpLkMQwo14kiREWdAnAqEDiITZ-IUrv2HRkswutSETdqqb/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-05-30%20at%205.07.36%20PM.png" width="202" /></a></div><br /><p>In conclusion, these makeup artist summer makeup tips are your ultimate guide to looking fresh, radiant, and effortlessly glamorous all season long.

Cleansing, toning, treating and moisturizing your skin before applying makeup can make a huge difference in achieving a smooth and radiant complexion. One of the biggest ways to combat a tired look is invest in a good eye cream - the skin around our eyes shows fatigue and age the most. Look for ingredients like caffeine to depuff, vitamin c to brighten, and hyaluronic acid to hydrate. I use the <a href="https://amzn.to/3Gdk2lt" target="_blank">IT Cosmetics confidence in an eye cream</a> because it does all of the above.</span></li></ol></div><div><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinLHupHkMRWCeyiA3kDg3t-Gz4xGd87Q8ma6R7vclx-W5PIPbAQStRK0a9SWsIfDn8lmYqB_vHYon4lKQSsF5aCMPlY6jyqa_VZpeA5siCmF2CYCay4_Q0gX8voUPzqisO-BF5EDKqmvFlgOpw9CCfF-bJPs9ngqZYOtH4JHS8UYjbCIqltF1heKux/s282/Screen%20Shot%202023-04-03%20at%2010.45.37%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="273" data-original-width="282" height="273" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinLHupHkMRWCeyiA3kDg3t-Gz4xGd87Q8ma6R7vclx-W5PIPbAQStRK0a9SWsIfDn8lmYqB_vHYon4lKQSsF5aCMPlY6jyqa_VZpeA5siCmF2CYCay4_Q0gX8voUPzqisO-BF5EDKqmvFlgOpw9CCfF-bJPs9ngqZYOtH4JHS8UYjbCIqltF1heKux/s1600/Screen%20Shot%202023-04-03%20at%2010.45.37%20AM.png" width="282" /></a></div><br /></span></span></div><div><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><b><span style="font-family: inherit;"><br /></span></b></span></div><ol class="list-decimal list-outside pl-8 -space-y-1 @xl:-space-y-1.5 @2xl:-space-y-2" style="--tw-border-spacing-x: 0; --tw-border-spacing-y: 0; --tw-ring-color: rgba(0,38,234,0.5); --tw-ring-offset-color: #fff; --tw-ring-offset-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-ring-offset-width: 0px; --tw-ring-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-rotate: 0; --tw-scale-x: 1; --tw-scale-y: 1; --tw-scroll-snap-strictness: proximity; --tw-shadow-colored: 0 0 #0000; --tw-shadow: 0 0 #0000; --tw-skew-x: 0; --tw-skew-y: 0; --tw-translate-x: 0; --tw-translate-y: 0; background-color: white; border: 0px solid rgb(226, 232, 240); box-sizing: border-box; list-style-image: initial; list-style-position: outside; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0px 2rem; white-space: pre-wrap;"><span style="font-family: inherit;">

When you're feeling tired or don't have a lot of time to spend on your makeup routine, it's best to keep it simple and multi-task. Opt for a lightweight tinted moisturizer or BB cream to even out your skin tone, and use a subtle concealer to camouflage any blemishes or under-eye darkness. A neutral cream blush can be placed on the apples of your cheeks can help to brighten your complexion, and you can even place the same product on your eyelids and lips for more color. Just use your fingertips to blend and tap in the product and you're good to go. * I use <a href="https://amzn.to/3JYhtoo">NARS the Multiple</a> as my go to multipurpose cream color.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq4oqUAboN_dr5nKgAPG-Ead4Q67oS4oh8hlOcFpWqRJ4FZ4BKYGXIBEa_9zXl-UmBQs9ylFvyOUZOFv9vb8EnEvhC9eNuu8q3f45daz6ScxJy4cDH7xUw-F0EKdGxYs_R4xTNwgq749tzlrQGlfEUR61AjQmx26BaX4DGeIXa2iz2ilvNydkvD92q/s360/Screen%20Shot%202023-04-03%20at%2010.46.41%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="360" data-original-width="274" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq4oqUAboN_dr5nKgAPG-Ead4Q67oS4oh8hlOcFpWqRJ4FZ4BKYGXIBEa_9zXl-UmBQs9ylFvyOUZOFv9vb8EnEvhC9eNuu8q3f45daz6ScxJy4cDH7xUw-F0EKdGxYs_R4xTNwgq749tzlrQGlfEUR61AjQmx26BaX4DGeIXa2iz2ilvNydkvD92q/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-04-03%20at%2010.46.41%20AM.png" width="244" /></a></div><br /><p></p>

Mascara is one of those products that can make a huge impact on your look, even when applied alone. A few coats of mascara can instantly open up your eyes and make you look more awake and refreshed. If you really want impact, use a lash curler before applying mascara to help open up your eyes even more. And another pro tip - wear two mascaras - one for lengthening and one for volumizing to get maximum impact. A fuller brow can also add a youthful lift to your face - I recommend a tinted brow gel or an angled brow pencil if you want something quick and easy. I currently the <a href="https://amzn.to/40WGsj2" target="_blank">Wet N Wild Brow Pencil </a>- works great and under $5! Remember to always go at least one shade lighter than your natural hair color so that the brows don't appear to dark or heavy.</p></span></li><b><span style="font-family: inherit;">

Last but not least, remember to take a little time for yourself to relax and recharge. Whether it’s a quick at-home spa treatment, a yoga session, or just a few minutes of quiet time to decompress, making self-care a priority can help you feel refreshed and revitalized, inside and out. My go to de-stressers are at least 30 minutes of exercise 5 times a week and curling up with a good book. If you're an avid reader like me I recommend getting a Amazon Kindle monthly membership for $7.99 a month - totally worth it.</p>

Cleanse, exfoliate, tone and hydrate your skin. This ensures that your makeup will apply smoothly on top. Next, we move to primer. I recommend applying a radiance primer or even a light layer of liquid illuminator all over the face. This method is known as under-lighting, and any foundation you put on top will glow.</p><p><b>Step 2: Apply foundation and concealer.</b></p><p>Now it's time to start applying some makeup! Begin by applying foundation all over your face. From there, spot correct and conceal any areas that the foundation doesn't cover. Areas like undereye circles and blemishes will usually require a bit more coverage. By applying foundation then concealer, you'll keep the coverage light so that the illuminator base you applied will shine through.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi22H4_QPhInhZBwVISOq7AK86DOlRvaDQZQMhKlMPXdLfsKP1NDcT2xby84KOhhjiA_YytSTpJOkBp1qVkD9Xct04-OXtWG7UT15irX46pX6YoSW6y7KLjeiwgcwhMiTLX1wABbLKgmYr7uoWiiC46saP87gc64JaIiI0eUPaheup4m0wvDGQJPeTZ/s6837/ABC_0534_RTCH.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="6837" data-original-width="4884" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi22H4_QPhInhZBwVISOq7AK86DOlRvaDQZQMhKlMPXdLfsKP1NDcT2xby84KOhhjiA_YytSTpJOkBp1qVkD9Xct04-OXtWG7UT15irX46pX6YoSW6y7KLjeiwgcwhMiTLX1wABbLKgmYr7uoWiiC46saP87gc64JaIiI0eUPaheup4m0wvDGQJPeTZ/s320/ABC_0534_RTCH.jpg" width="229" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Makeup by me</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Model @myoddfuture</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Photographer - Ctabphotography</div><p><b>Step 3: Eyeshadow time!</b></p><p>I tend to do foundation first, then eyeshadow. But you could totally reverse these steps - it's your preference. Generally for soft glam, I stick with a mix of shimmer and matte neutral tones. I love a shimmer on the lid in a metallic tone like pearl, champagne, gold or bronze - depending on the skin tone. Then i'll use a contour shade in the crease - go a few shades deeper than your skin tone. I'll even use a bronzer. Finally, use a dark color on the outer v (outer half of the eye) to add depth and extension to the eye. Apply this same color along your top and bottom lash line. Be sure to blend well so that there are no harsh lines or edges.</p><p><b>Step 4: Liner and Lashes</b></p><p>Once your eyeshadow is complete, it's time to apply some eyeliner and mascara. I love a winged liner - it extends the eye and is a classic application. My favorite product for this is the iconic Inglot Gel Liner. Next apply mascara or if you're game - a pair of falsies will really glam up the look.</p><p><b>Step 5: Brows</b></p><p>I actually like to do my eyebrows after eyeshadow so that I don't worry about covering them up with foundation or I don't accidentally blend away product. The rule of thumb is to pick a brow product 1-2 shades lighter than your eyebrow color so that your brow doesn't come off too dark or harsh. Use a spoolie to brush the hairs up and blend out any harsh lines. Then I conceal under the brow bone with a highlighting concealer and above with a skin tone concealer to clean up the brow shape. Set the concealer with powder. You can finish it off with a clear brow gel - brush upwards to give the brows a fluffy lifted effect.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4BnZ-Js4TDgovwiywDsDJrgE5TaCpVqZamrOrc9nEv1NG_bSDlYeo_D-PAhAoiapIpAHxq6Gv3YJ9k02o5BQjL8--juAkRo-Fy_52ewQusw-h3epjQpiwZs-MZT8kdGIuvA6onfG2mJ0X236a_kf3HTiqWUIY_38z_vtJLfLJj0lWH6M-52MPsQ-E/s2122/ABC_7308small.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2122" data-original-width="1474" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4BnZ-Js4TDgovwiywDsDJrgE5TaCpVqZamrOrc9nEv1NG_bSDlYeo_D-PAhAoiapIpAHxq6Gv3YJ9k02o5BQjL8--juAkRo-Fy_52ewQusw-h3epjQpiwZs-MZT8kdGIuvA6onfG2mJ0X236a_kf3HTiqWUIY_38z_vtJLfLJj0lWH6M-52MPsQ-E/s320/ABC_7308small.jpg" width="222" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Makeup by me</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Model Eduarda Speggiori</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Photography - Ctabphotography</div><br /><p><b>Step 6: Contour and highlight</b></p><p>Now it's time for contouring and highlighting . For contouring, use a bronzer or contouring product that's two shades darker than your natural skin tone. I prefer cream bronzers because they look more natural and they are easier to blend. Apply the contour powder along the hollows of your cheeks and around the perimeter of your face, then blend well . For highlight, use a cream concealer that's two shades lighter than your natural skin tone. Apply the highlight underneath your eyes and in the center of your face - your t-zone. When you're done set the highlight with a translucent powder, and you can set the contour with a powder contour or bronzer.</p><p><b>Step 7 : Blush is your friend</b></p><p>I love blush because it brings color back to the skin after you removed everything with your base. There's a blush shade for everyone whether it's a pop of color or more subtle. I'm currently a fan of peach and orange tones. I apply a cream blush with a stippling brush - you can also use your fingers. Always start light with blush and build up the color. Lightly dust the blush onto the apples of your cheeks , then blend back towards your hairline . You can top the cream blush with a powder blush to lock it in place and ensure it lasts all day. Then I finish off the entire face with a setting spray. </p><p style="text-align: center;"></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyyX_7pwF6moLCOIC3YZe2ibnDdehCYhYrT60wg4SDVT7J__dzXkYLiGRJd_LsWndcWYqFmzuR0Cvihsjpclm8bLOYiRX4m3p8yFiecdKt_AKICMp2Ojwg5NxNuYcshzvjYpZkbjnt_alHdLtjIjZLuD2DPdU_tYb-IrP8yR5nG4d5IvZDfmFMNobR/s448/Screen%20Shot%202023-03-02%20at%208.18.22%20AM.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="419" data-original-width="448" height="299" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyyX_7pwF6moLCOIC3YZe2ibnDdehCYhYrT60wg4SDVT7J__dzXkYLiGRJd_LsWndcWYqFmzuR0Cvihsjpclm8bLOYiRX4m3p8yFiecdKt_AKICMp2Ojwg5NxNuYcshzvjYpZkbjnt_alHdLtjIjZLuD2DPdU_tYb-IrP8yR5nG4d5IvZDfmFMNobR/s320/Screen%20Shot%202023-03-02%20at%208.18.22%20AM.png" width="320" /></a></div> <p></p><p><b>Step 8 : Lips</b></p><p>My go to for soft glam is an ombre lip. Start by picking a brown lip pencil close to your skin tone. Line your lips and apply a bit more liner to your corners - you're essentially contouring them. Then apply a nude lipstick. Reline the lip again to ensure the edges are even, and then apply a gloss just to the center of the lips as highlight. </p><p>And there you have it —a soft glam makeup look! Hope you enjoyed!

Again, gently blend in a tapping motion with your finger or a damp sponge until the product is well blended. This step is key in ensuring that your dark circles are sufficiently covered without looking cakey or overdone. If you need extra coverage, feel free to go in with a second layer of concealer. Just be sure to let each layer dry before moving on to the next. </span></div></div><div class="_25Ehb _3qYRK Oh89J public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr fixed-tab-size rich_content_P" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="6is6r-0-0"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="6is6r-0-0"><span data-offset-key="6is6r-0-0">Pro Tip: Use a small amount of product and build up coverage as needed rather than going in with too much from the get go.

For lip color, they'll pick something using a complementary shades. All you have to do is look at a color wheel, and look at your color (whether it's your hair, outfit or eyeshadow) and pick the color opposite to know that it'll be a perfect match. For example, red and green are complementary shades. You can apply a red lipstick if you're wearing a green dress.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjF7kS-vkID4FvfAe2OESEB8U_EMY9aoZN_oHuASWQADzPTamFOOFErwNwXju9yRAdG7x6g0oHqwRG4qrh2BMorkHybWI6Zv7wjBn_IF2SidITphAitvf1MnoDOXwnGKtyUPgri-KvLdiYEeHMVoB4_QyTLCB5VINd6mrNEvWCJbrQUu4oDpeDKVg62=s263" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="263" data-original-width="210" height="263" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEjF7kS-vkID4FvfAe2OESEB8U_EMY9aoZN_oHuASWQADzPTamFOOFErwNwXju9yRAdG7x6g0oHqwRG4qrh2BMorkHybWI6Zv7wjBn_IF2SidITphAitvf1MnoDOXwnGKtyUPgri-KvLdiYEeHMVoB4_QyTLCB5VINd6mrNEvWCJbrQUu4oDpeDKVg62" width="210" /></a></div><br /><p><b>Match Your Natural Lip Color</b></p><p>2) When in doubt, use your natural lip color as a match. Find a similar shade of lip product but with a pop. We call this "My Lips But Better". If you have natural brown tones to you lip, pick something earthy toned like a mauve shade.</p><p><b>4) Nude or Bold</b></p><p>The rule of thumb is that you choose one feature to pop. So if you have a smokey eye, go with a nude lip.

Each state has specific Covid requirements for professional beauty services and the CDC also has its own guidelines. For example, in Georgia, a beauty professional is required to use covered trash cans to dispose of their waste and the CDC requires that 70% isopropyl alcohol be used to sanitize makeup. A certified instructor trains students to adopt these procedures and create the best habits to apply makeup sanitarily to their clients. This includes learning different product expiration dates, how to apply makeup without contaminating it and correctly sanitizing products between clients.

The Makeup Artist Union has strict requirements such as making sure artists have the proper PPE and sanitation tools. Most pros know that the key to covid safe makeup includes having small amounts of makeup that can be divided up per individual client as to not contaminate your larger kit. This includes a brush set and disposables for each person who receives makeup services. By having the proper kit you'll do your work safely and efficiently. This also ensures that you'll be rehired for the next gig. </span></div></div><figure class="_2zSkX _2xaV9" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="b99ir-0-0" style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="_1BaDs _2OtS3 CKAfH _1CBud _3L9s_ _1au4D f3bms4w _3eCPQ undefined kWFic" data-focus="true" role="none" style="cursor: default; position: relative;" width="20"><div class="_2kEVY" data-hook="imageViewer" role="button" tabindex="0"><div class="_3WJnn f3bms4w"><img class="OzAYt _3xs9_" height="400" src="https://static.wixstatic.com/media/4173f2_c447f83cf07a4ffebf8161ed6b8e693f~mv2.png/v1/fill/w_740,h_740,al_c/4173f2_c447f83cf07a4ffebf8161ed6b8e693f~mv2.png" style="opacity: 1;" width="400" /></div><div class=""></div><div class=""></div></div><div class="aWTlU" data-hook="componentOverlay" draggable="true" role="none"></div></div></figure><div class="_25Ehb _3qYRK Zn7O0 public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="e2b7r-0-0" style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="e2b7r-0-0"><span data-offset-key="e2b7r-0-0"><br data-text="true" /></span></div></div><div class="_25Ehb _3qYRK Zn7O0 public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="4pnko-0-0" style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="4pnko-0-0"><span data-offset-key="4pnko-0-0" style="font-weight: bold;">Practice your Covid Safe Set Up </span></div></div><div class="_25Ehb _3qYRK Zn7O0 public-DraftStyleDefault-block-depth0 public-DraftStyleDefault-text-ltr" data-block="true" data-editor="editor" data-offset-key="c4fk6-0-0" style="white-space: pre-wrap;"><div class="public-DraftStyleDefault-block public-DraftStyleDefault-ltr" data-offset-key="c4fk6-0-0"><span data-offset-key="c4fk6-0-0">Practice makes perfect.

Set up your makeup so that it is not exposed to air and contamination - i.e. keep palettes closed and cover makeup brushes. Next, begin applying makeup using techniques like scooping out products with a metal spatula and palette for creams and liquids. Practice sanitizing makeup between clients such as wiping off powders and spraying down tools with isopropyl alcohol. Lastly, clean up by having dedicated bags for soiled items and disposing waste in lidded trash cans.

As a makeup instructor, I get a lot of interest from my students about airbrush makeup. Is it worth it? Is it hard to do? I've been airbrushing my clients for over a decade and I can share with you all of the pros and cons of this makeup medium and whether or not it's worth the investment. Check it out!</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0-_p9U-ICsh00NDW2jums3QVcF9WEAlImji1vX5GZkDYprdio8lgsS5Prcw0CbkP5vsTzhuiwjroeBvxLroia-rrq-b15H8nHsiMnI0R3ia-CZ-_4MpX-xU_AZXnIWyY2IwhVLDdF0lc/s502/Picture2.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="333" data-original-width="502" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh0-_p9U-ICsh00NDW2jums3QVcF9WEAlImji1vX5GZkDYprdio8lgsS5Prcw0CbkP5vsTzhuiwjroeBvxLroia-rrq-b15H8nHsiMnI0R3ia-CZ-_4MpX-xU_AZXnIWyY2IwhVLDdF0lc/s320/Picture2.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><span><a name='more'></a></span><p style="text-align: center;"><b>What is airbrush makeup?</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">As opposed to traditional makeup which is applied with a brush or sponge, airbrush makeup is applied using air pressure through an airbrush gun. The airbrush makeup itself is composed of fine pigment particles that create a flawless finish to the skin. It's this airbrushed look that clients love, especially brides. It's also a great option for special fx, body makeup and more.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjjUcIWCOv41d11qcxAcx-_b6V4MgFmg29tu_EnnOwTBFKy1soVZlZksi94DeP7nIl1WnmpEzKGZpT77fcdS1gJsdE0IySFcpkboQuOZprIVu7TZCO1B-h88gSEp-OJWcr2B4TvnVE-Ss/s602/Picture3.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="452" data-original-width="602" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhjjUcIWCOv41d11qcxAcx-_b6V4MgFmg29tu_EnnOwTBFKy1soVZlZksi94DeP7nIl1WnmpEzKGZpT77fcdS1gJsdE0IySFcpkboQuOZprIVu7TZCO1B-h88gSEp-OJWcr2B4TvnVE-Ss/s320/Picture3.png" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><i>***Pictured - Graftobian Walk Around Airbrush Makeup System. This airbrush kit is used during the IMA Airbrush Makeup Training courses.</i></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><b>What's the downside?</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Airbrush Makeup application is a learned skill that takes practice and proper instruction. I've found that new artists may get discouraged if they pick up the machine and cannot troubleshoot issues. This is applied using an airbrush compressor and gun and like all machines it can break. Being properly trained and putting in the practice will help you overcome the learning curve and be confident in airbrush makeup application.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><b>What's the upside?</b></p><p style="text-align: center;">Airbrush Makeup is an advanced skill to add to your Makeup Resume that clients are willing to pay extra for. It's considered a specialized application and also can be a truly luxe experience. Not everyone is trained in airbrush makeup application so it gives you an advantage over other artists. Over the last two years of living in a pandemic, many more artists and clients are preferring airbrush makeup application as it is more sanitary. You actually never have to touch a client's face or double dip the makeup, leading to more sanitary application and less cross contamination. </p><p style="text-align: center;">Notice the flawless finish on this bridal makeup application. The foundation was applied using Temptu's S/B airbrush foundation.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiqZYLhyphenhyphenPO4DWJB89LiX9eniNIvnzxGrlR1C54XwcNYZARXIlS8Q8Z2pUSVXgBLkRcgw3Sl4mbg9AD_WAErCQ72kxLbUu96MSZq5LsZBQwJJgUoeeq2I7z3P3qbkYzKBykjMQ1Rh_7EJM/s763/atlanta+bridal+makeup+for+black+women+before+and+after.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="573" data-original-width="763" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiqZYLhyphenhyphenPO4DWJB89LiX9eniNIvnzxGrlR1C54XwcNYZARXIlS8Q8Z2pUSVXgBLkRcgw3Sl4mbg9AD_WAErCQ72kxLbUu96MSZq5LsZBQwJJgUoeeq2I7z3P3qbkYzKBykjMQ1Rh_7EJM/s320/atlanta+bridal+makeup+for+black+women+before+and+after.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Here is another before and after done during a live class demo.

My model had dehydrated skin with some flaky patches which is one of the most difficult skin types to work with. I hydrated her with dewy mists, serum and moisturizer. Then I went in with mainly liquid and cream complexion products - foundation, blush, highlighter.
