#GLAMOROUS #SKIN
Who doesn’t love watching all the makeup and dress looks on the red carpet at the Oscars? Oscar night brings out the most sophisticated Hollywood glamour that we all aspire to do our own version of it. That is my “red carpet realness”. Taking the look and creating a version of it or making it our own. I LOVE to do full on makeup for the red carpet. Nothing is more satisfying than taking a blank canvas and making it into glowing masterpiece with a big happy smile. I am known and specifically booked for my skin, foundation technique, which I refer as “marinated” skin. Meaning seamless, hydrated, luminous skin that gets better with wear. If you follow the next steps using these “ingredients”, you will have your own perfect red carpet plus everyday glow.
My number one rule is to prep the skin first. Apply a mask like Tatcha’s Luminous Dew Skin Mask or Luminous Deep Hydration Lifting Mask, both are great after a long day and or long flight. I follow with Tatcha’s The Dewy Skin Cream, then The Silk Canvas + Becca’s First Light Primer. This combination is a holy grail of prepping your skin into a flawless canvas. Think of a painter applying gesso to the canvas before painting.
Clinique’s Smart Clinical MD Multi-Dimensional Age Transformer Duo Resculpt + Revolumize Cream is another winner for supple, glowing skin.
Stay tuned for my next post covering the best foundations and other tips and tricks.
