How to Create a Back-to-School Makeup Routine
Ready to ace your school makeup? With these quick tips, you can create a fresh look that won’t take all morning.
The ritual, step by step
- Prep Your Skin Start with a clean, moisturised face. Use a lightweight moisturiser to provide hydration without feeling heavy.
- Even Out Skin Tone Apply a tinted moisturiser or lightweight foundation for a natural finish. Use your fingers or a beauty sponge for a seamless application.
- Add a Touch of Colour Lightly dust a bronzer or blush on your cheeks for a healthy glow. Stick to cream formulas for a quick blend.
- Define Your Eyes Apply a neutral eyeshadow for subtle definition, then finish with a coat of mascara to open up your eyes.
- Set It All Lightly dust a translucent powder to set your makeup in place. Focus on the T-zone to combat shine throughout the day.
Where people go wrong
Many people skip skincare, which can lead to uneven makeup application. Using too many products can also make your look feel heavy. Remember to blend well, especially around the jawline for a seamless finish.
