01 — Start With Clean Skin

Wash your face and apply your normal skincare. Give moisturizer a few minutes to settle before applying makeup.

02 — Apply Primer

Create a smooth surface tailored to your skin architecture:

• Dry skin: Hydrating primer
• Oily skin: Mattifying or oil-control primer
• Combination skin: Use different products on different areas if necessary. Or find a product specifically formulated for combination skin. (What’s my skin type?)

03 — Apply Foundation

Start with a small amount. Apply foundation primarily where you need coverage and blend outward. Ensure a seamless transition along your jawline so your complexion meets your neck without an artificial barrier line.

04 — Concealer

Use concealer where additional coverage is needed. For under-eyes, restrain product volume; a featherlight application blended gently yields high-fashion realism.

05 — Bronzer

Introduce warmth and dimension to high points where natural sunlight strikes:

• Note: Never substitute bronzer for contour; their structural functions are distinct.

06 — Blush

This is where the undertone blueprint comes alive. Apply blush to the cheeks and blend upward toward the temples. Start lightly — you can always layer more if needed.

07 — Highlighter

Apply a small amount where light naturally catches:

08 — Eyes

A simple everyday eye look:

Blend the edges so there aren’t obvious lines between the colors.

09 — Brows

Brush your brows upward with a spoolie and fill only where additional definition is needed.

10 — Lips

Apply lip liner first if desired, followed by your choice of lipstick or gloss.

11 — Setting

Finish with a setting spray to lock integrity, prevent midday smudges, and restore any subtle hydration compromised during the layering process.
