This barely-there look is all about enhancing your natural features with minimal fuss; think lightweight coverage, flattering angles, slightly flushed cheeks, vibrant eyes, and healthy-looking skin.
The best part? The low effort/high pay-off look is a bathroom time saver and requires little-to-no touch ups throughout the day. Hit play!
Prep your skin
1. No artist starts a masterpiece without prepping their canvas and the same rules apply here. Prime your skin for makeup with a refreshing spritz of M·A·C Cosmetics Fix+ Magic Radiance.
2. Follow with Summer Fridays Cloud Dew Gel Cream Moisturiser and let it sink into your skin.

A touch of coverage, a boost of glow
3. Add lightweight coverage that gives your skin a natural glow by mixing a few drops of Glossier FutureDew Facial with M·A·C Cosmetics Studio Radiance (our model’s shade is ‘NC20’). This little trick thins out the foundation for a satin-y application and skincare-y results.
4. Brighten the area around your eyes with NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer – its velvety consistency offers long lasting coverage and helps to minimise the appearance of under eye crepiness.

Accentuate your best angles
5. Apply Westman Atelier Face Trace Contour in ‘Truffle’ (a rich mocha hue) to the end tip of the brow and high point of the cheekbone. Buff out with a fluffy brush for a streakless finish.
6. Add a sweep of Westman Atelier Babycheeks in ‘Petal’ to the cheeks and fortify with RMS Living Luminizer.

The finishing touches
7. For sparkly eyes that never look tired, blend Ellis Faas Creamy Eyes in ‘105’ (a warm taupe) across your lid, and volumise your lashes with Too Faced Better Than Sex Chocolate mascara.
8. Finish off with Charlotte Tilbury Lip Cheat in ‘Iconic Nude’. For a ‘your-lips-but-better’ look, apply to the lip line and then softly blur the edges.
