Primer

1. Start with primer

Foundation and beauty balm

Mix together a combination of primer, foundation, and beauty balm. 


Adjust the proportions based on the season; use more beauty balm in the summer and more foundation in the winter.

Applying foundation

3. Apply foundation

Use a foundation brush to apply the primer and foundation mixture all over your face. Blend it in thoroughly for a natural look.

Adding blush

4. Add blush

Apply blush to add color to your cheeks. Start in the center of your cheek and blend upwards in a teardrop shape using a blush brush.

Adding blush

Use a soft brush to blend it in.

Defining brows

5. Define your eyebrows

Use a taupe eyeliner pencil to define your eyebrows.

Defining brows

Fill in any sparse areas and smooth them out using a spoolie brush.

Applying eye makeup

6. Now your eye makeup

You have already applied eye primer, so now add a neutral base eyeshadow all over your lids.


Use a rose gold shade for a subtle everyday look.
