What you need

Steps

  1. Start with clean, moisturised skin. Apply a broad spectrum SPF 50 mineral sunscreen all over your face and let it settle for a minute.

  2. Tap a small amount of eye contour serum or eye cream under your eyes to hydrate and smooth the area before makeup.

  3. Dot full coverage concealer under your eyes and on any redness or blemishes. Blend with a damp sponge or your fingertip.

  4. Lightly dust loose setting powder over the concealer and your T-zone to lock it in and cut shine.

  5. Sweep a bronzing blush powder along your cheekbones and temples for a soft, sun-kissed flush.

  6. Brush clear or tinted brow gel through your brows in short upward strokes to shape and set them.

  7. Curl your lashes, then apply one or two coats of waterproof mascara from root to tip.

  8. Finish with a glossy lip stain or lip oil for a fresh, natural tint.

Tips and common mistakes

Use a damp sponge to press concealer into the skin so it looks seamless, not cakey.

Keep powder light under the eyes so the finish stays fresh instead of flat.

Waterproof mascara holds a curl longer on humid days or oily lids.

Do your base first and lips last so you can apply lip colour without smudging your face.

Questions

Can I do this look without foundation?

Yes. The routine skips foundation and relies on concealer and powder, so skin looks natural and fresh.

What if I have oily skin?

Set your T-zone with loose powder and choose a waterproof mascara. Blotting papers during the day help too.

Do I need expensive products?

No. Any sunscreen, concealer, powder, brow gel, mascara and lip gloss you already own will work.
