The Skin Prep
I don't use heavy moisturizers under makeup anymore; they just make everything slide off. This is how I prep
I spray this first thing. It has NAD+ which actually helps your skin cells look less tired. It’s light but makes your face look awake immediately.
Probiotics Barrier 2% NAD + Serum Mist
This is the "salmon DNA" cream everyone’s on about. I use a tiny bit. It gives that bouncy, thick skin look that makes foundation optional.
PDRN Reju 5000 Cream
If I’m extra dry, I layer this on top. It sinks in fast and leaves a velvet finish so your makeup doesn't pill.
Instant Angel Moisturizer | Lipid-Rich, Nourishing Face Cream
The Base
We’re doing targeted coverage. Most of your skin should still look like skin.
This is expensive but worth it. It’s super thin and blurs everything without looking like you have a mask on. I just blend it with my fingers.
Reveal Skin-Optimizing Refillable Soft Matte Foundation - Prada
I only put this on the inner corners of my eyes and maybe around my nose. It’s the only concealer I’ve found that doesn't crease by lunch.
Dior Forever Skin Correct - Concealer and Corrector
I mix a pump of this into the skin tint. It gives that "just drank a gallon of water" glow without looking like a glitter bomb.
Saie Glowy Super Gel | All-Over Luminizer | Clean Highlighter
I just buff this into my cheekbones and forehead. It’s a cream, so it looks like a natural tan rather than makeup sitting on top of your face.
CHANEL LES BEIGES HEALTHY GLOW BRONZING CREAM SOLEIL ...
The Eyes & Brows
The goal is "polished," not "done." Keep the brows fluffy and the lashes clean.
This is better than the gel. It adds a bit of color and holds them in place without making them feel crunchy or stiff.
Refy Brow Tint Eyebrow Gel
I just swipe this on my lids to cancel out any redness. It makes you look way more "put together" than you actually are.
GLIDR Eyeshadow Stick
I switched to tubing mascara because it doesn't smudge. It wraps around your lashes and only comes off with warm water—no raccoon eyes.
Urban Decay Tube Job Lash Augmenting Tubing Mascara
I actually spray this on my face after my eye makeup is set. It keeps the skin underneath healthy and stops any irritation.
SOS Daily Rescue Facial Spray with Hypochlorous Acid
The Finishing Touches
This is where the "clean girl" look comes together—blurred lips and a bit of flush.
I use this on my lips and whatever is left on my finger goes on my cheeks. It has this weirdly cool blurred texture that looks like a natural flush.
Powder Kiss Lip + Cheek Mousse| Liquid Lipstick
I put this over the MAC mousse. It’s basically a treatment that looks like a high-end gloss. It stays on for a surprisingly long time.
Rhode peptide lip tint - ribbon
I only use this right under my eyes to brighten things up. The peach tone cancels out any blue or purple shadows.
HUDA BEAUTY Easy Bake Blurring Loose Baking & Setting Powder
I keep this in my car for touch-ups. It’s $10 and honestly looks better than some of my $40 lip oils.
Glow Reviver Lip Oil
