- Light concealer
- Dark concealer
- Contour stick
- Loose setting powder
- Brow gel
- Brow pencil
- Eyeshadow
- Mascara
- False lashes
- Setting spray
- Lip liner
1. Clean your face
Clean your face with face wipes. Then use micellar cleansing water on a cotton ball to get all of the excess dirt and face wipe remains.
2. Apply a face serum
This serum is a DIY, but use any serum that makes your skin smoother so it’s easier to put on makeup.
3. Apply a liquid illuminator
This illuminator gives you a nice glow on your skin. Use it wherever you’d like to highlight and shine.
Blend it in with a brush.
4. Apply foundation
Apply foundation to your face and blend it in with a damp beauty blender.
5. Apply a light concealer
Apply a small amount of concealer under your eyes, on your forehead, nose, chin, and the corners of your lips.
6. Apply a darker concealer
Apply a darker concealer closer to your skin tone under your eye concealer to make sure the concealer under your eyes isn’t too much.
Also, apply some under your nose bridge and cheeks to define your contour.
6. Blend the concealer
Let the concealer dry a bit and then blend. Drying it a bit first is important so you can have full coverage.
I used a mix of a beauty blender for large surface areas and a small brush to get the harder-to-reach corners.
Step 7: Apply contour
Apply a darker, contour-shade stick to your cheekbones. Blend that in as well.
8. Set with a loose setting powder
It’s really important to let your foundation dry before you set it with a powder.
If it doesn’t dry, the makeup might smear and crease.
Use a beauty blender to get a precise application of the setting powder.
Use a brush to clean up any mess or over-application.
9. Set your brows
Apply brow gel with a spoolie to set your brows into place.
10. Fill in your brows
Finish filling in and grooming your brows with a brow pencil and concealer.
Here are my finished brows.
11. Apply concealer to your eyelid
Apply concealer to the eyelid.
Let it dry for a few seconds and then blend it in. Set with a powder.
12. Apply eyeshadow
Since we’re going with a natural look, apply a neutral palette of eyeshadow to your lids.
13. Apply mascara
Apply mascara to your lashes. You can also wear false lashes, as I will later in the tutorial.
14. Blend
Blend in all of your concealers and setting powder.
15. Apply a setting spray
16. Line your lips
I used a dark brown liner.
Blend it in.
17. Apply concealer to your lips
Apply a small amount of concealer to the center of your lip.
18. Apply illuminator
Apply a small amount of the illuminator on top of your makeup.
