Step 1: Primer Magic

To achieve a radiant and long-lasting makeup look, we suggest incorporating a makeup primer into your routine. Face primers serve as a foundation for your makeup, providing a smooth surface and enhancing its longevity. At Makeup Studio Pro, we offer a range of primers tailored to different skin types. One of our top recommendations is the Face Prep Illuminating Primer which is packed with beneficial ingredients. This supercharged primer instantly plumps the skin, while gripping onto your makeup to extend its wear. Unlike some primers, it won’t leave your skin feeling oily but instead keeps it looking fresh and moisturized. After completing your skincare routine, simply apply a small amount of the primer and get hydration, care and protection.  

Another excellent option for achieving a natural and radiant makeup look is The Pre Base. This is a non-oily formulation for smooth and long lasting make-up. It acts as a primer for all skin types. For extra dry skin, one can use a moisturizer before Pre Base.This multitasking primer offers a variety of benefits, including smoothing the skin’s texture, extending makeup wear, hydrating the skin, soothing any irritation, evening out skin tone, minimizing the appearance of pores, blurring fine lines, adding a soft focus finish, and keeping your makeup looking fresh throughout the day. 

 

Step 2: Apply your foundation

Once you’ve allowed your primer a minute or two to dry, you can proceed with applying your foundation. We offer a variety of options, and the choice of formula should depend on the level of coverage you desire. For customizable coverage, you can build your base to your preference with our Fluid Foundation No Transfer. This liquid formula allows for buildable coverage, ranging from sheer to full, and it maintains its true color for up to 12 hours. With 15 shades to choose from, or the option to use our Fluid Foundation No Transfer to create your own perfect match, the possibilities are endless. Additionally, if you want an all-over glow, you can add a few drops of our liquid highlighter – Shimmer Effects to your foundation.

Pro Tip: For a more subtly radiant look, start with a cream foundation like our Face It Cream Foundation. An extra pigmented high covering cream foundation for demanding circumstances. With 20 diverse shades available, this highly pigmented foundation provides full coverage while also helping to reduce unwanted shine. After applying your foundation, you can then use highlighter and bronzer on specific areas to achieve a controlled glow.

 

STEP 3: Conceal your under eye circles 

Next, it’s time to brighten your under-eye area and cover any remaining discoloration. To conceal under-eye circles effectively, start by brightening the area and disguising any remaining discolorations. Apply a lightweight concealer precisely where it’s required. Opt for the Makeup Studio Camouflage Palette for a seamless, natural finish. It comes with multiple shades and is  versatile enough to conceal dark circles, blemishes, and discolorations anywhere on your body.

Pro Tip: For those with oily skin, maintaining a balance between a radiant complexion and unwanted shine can be tricky. Keep the Compact Powder Makeup handy in your bag. This mattifying powder can be applied lightly to oily areas, like the T-zone, throughout the day to preserve your makeup’s freshness without compromising your glow.

 

STEP 4: Warm up you skin

For that coveted sun-kissed radiance, step up your game with Makeup Studio’s Blush and Bronzer duo. Start by sculpting and defining your cheekbones with Bronzing Powder Lumiere Apply the darker shade beneath your cheekbones for definition, then blend the lighter shade onto the apples of your cheeks, extending towards your temples for a natural flush.

Enhance your sun-kissed look by pairing your bronzer with our classic Blusher Lumiere. For an even application, lightly set your base makeup with setting powder before sweeping bronzer onto the high points of your face where the sunlight naturally hits.

 

STEP 5: Add Highlighter for a Luminus Look

Elevate your glow with Makeup Studio’s Born To Glow Icy Highlighter Duo. Featuring four harmonious shade pairings, each duo includes a soft-lit sparkling highlighter and an intense pearlescent shade for highlighting and strobing. Apply these creamy, blendable powders to the high points of your face, including cheekbones, nose bridge, brow bone, and inner corners of your eyes. For precise highlighting, use Wonder Pencil to enhance your overall luminosity.

 

STEP 6: Add your finishing touches and set it

Now, it’s time to personalize your radiant makeup look. Accentuate your glowing complexion with shimmery eyeshadows in warm tones to make your eyes pop. For luscious lips, opt for a sheer lip gloss to enhance your pout. Once you’ve perfected every detail, lock in your makeup with De & Pre Make-up Fixer for a long-lasting, flawless finish.
