We all have that seriously annoying friend that can pull her hair into a shaggy chic topknot and run out the door without even a stitch of make-up on, looking amazing. It’s enough to make your blood boil isn’t it?
Most of us aren’t that fortunate. I know I am never all that confident when barefaced. I feel far more ready to take on the world when I have a flawless complexion that isn’t plagued with irritating imperfections – and I’m sure most of you are the same.
So if you don’t know how to get a dreamy, creamy complexion already, here’s how…
– Primer is key. Like the glue that holds everything together, primer is an integral step in a make-up routine. We love Youngblood Mineral Primer for its velvety smooth finish and its ability to minimise fine lines.
– Conceal the deal. Take care of any imperfections with a hard-working concealer like Youngblood Ultimate Concealer. The hydrating formula works wonders in brightening the under eye area and disguising blemishes.
– Avoid ‘masked’ make-up. Whether you prefer a loose powder or a hydrating liquid, make sure you apply it to your neck area to avoid the ‘mask’ look, blending thoroughly as you go. We love Youngblood Natural Loose Mineral Foundation and Liquid Foundations for their buildable coverage and anti-ageing benefits, respectively.
– Set all bets. After you’ve applied your ‘face’, you need a shield to lock everything in place and protect it from the elements, without making it looking cakey. Youngblood Mineral Rice Setting Powder is translucent and works to absorb excess oils, without drying your skin. Tip: buff the powder into your skin to help set everything in place for longer.
– Get radiant. To finish off your look, achieve a sunkissed glow by using Youngblood Mineral Radiance in Sundance. The multi-toned bronzing wheel will enhance the natural colours in your complexion without looking ‘muddy.’ Tip: apply in a ‘3’ shape to each side of your face, starting at the temples, dipping in under the cheekbones and finishing in the middle of your jawline.
