Skin Prep

One of the secrets to flawless makeup is a well-prepared base. Before applying any makeup, ensure your skin is clean, moisturised, and primed. My favourite pre-makeup step for flawless application is the Revolution Pro Miracle Cream! Take the time to cleanse your face, apply a hydrating moisturiser, and give it a few minutes to absorb. This step ensures a smoother application and helps your makeup last longer.


Timing Matters

Did you know that waiting a few minutes after applying skincare products can make a significant difference in your makeup application? Allow your moisturiser, SPF, or any other creams to fully absorb before moving on to your makeup routine. This helps prevent pilling and ensures a seamless finish.

The Cream-Powder Rule

When it comes to layering your makeup products, remember the golden rule: creams before powders. Applying creams over powders can lead to a cakey and uneven finish. Start with your cream-based products like foundation and concealer, then set them with a light dusting of powder to lock everything in place, the Revolution loose baking powder is an essential in my routine for locking my base in place!


Primer Power

Primer acts as a crucial step in creating a smooth canvas for your makeup. Selecting a primer that caters to your specific skin concerns is essential. If you have oily skin, opt for a mattifying primer to control shine throughout the day. If your skin is dry, go for a hydrating primer that provides a boost of moisture. Understanding your skin's needs ensures a flawless makeup application.

Unveiling the Undertone

Finding the perfect foundation match can be a game-changer for your overall look. Understanding your undertone is key to selecting the right shade. Whether you have warm, cool, or neutral undertones, matching your foundation accordingly will give you a seamless and natural finish. To determine your foundation undertone, you can examine the veins on the underside of your wrist. If your veins appear blue or purple, you likely have cool undertones. If they appear greenish, you likely have warm undertones. If you have both, you might have neutral undertones!

These top makeup tips are your gateway to achieving a flawless look. By focusing on skin preparation, understanding product layering, and selecting the right shades for your skin, you'll be well on your way to mastering the art of makeup. Remember, practice makes perfect, so don't be afraid to experiment and have fun along the way!
