Introduction:
As the beauty sphere continues to explode with endless products, techniques and tricks, it can be somewhat overwhelming. However, our latest YouTube tutorial dives into a simplified, yet glamorous everyday makeup look anyone can pull off. From the perfect foundation match to the art of blending shadows, this video demystifies these processes with a fun and refreshing approach.
Step-by-step Guide:
1. Start with a Clean Canvas: Begin by washing your face clean of any impurities, and follow with toner and moisturizer to prep your skin for makeup application.
2. Prime & Perfect: Apply a layer of primer to create a smooth base for your foundation. Next, apply a foundation that matches your skin tone, blending it evenly using a beauty sponge or brush.
3. Conquer Contouring: Use a cool-toned contour palette to define and sculpt your cheekbones, nose, and forehead. Remember, the key is to blend, blend, blend!
4. Eye Makeup Mastery: Set an eyeshadow primer for long-lasting wear. Start with a neutral base eyeshadow then layer with darker shades for depth. Winged liner and mascara will add a finishing touch.
5. Finishing Flourishes: Brush on a flattering blush, blend in highlighter for that added glow and finally, apply your favorite lipstick.

what is your face shape?
I think both ways look pretty on you to be honest..the top blush is more noticeable from the sides of your face mostly and the lower blush makes you look so pretty ..i don't think it drags your face down..maybe your not used to the look but both ways are beautiful ✨✨✨
I love this example. She's truly an artist teaching us using her canvas, which is her spectacular face haha.
I see what you think you see, but you are extremely over critical of your face.
I have a heart I just don't know where to put my blush I think you're gorgeous
i love all blush placements it just depends on the mood i’m in
i love it all idc man
So Greatful I found this video ❤❤❤❤
Yes omg
We can totally see it!
Yes! I saw in your last video you did that and was like hmmm I thought we knew better 👀
We have same face shape and I do my blush the same way ❤
Thank you for that top tip, can you please show me how to place blusher for a slightly fuller face.
no
I was at sephora for over an hour today with a rep. I asked the rep to find me a tinted foundation that is pink with a warm undertone. He tried every foundation maker and could not find one. Most were yellow undertone, or found a neutral, but without the pink and it was so grey on me. I have been wearing sephora foundation in #9, but they discontinued it, ugh. Any ideas???
Thanks for helping folks Alex.❤
I personally look the best with “sun kissed” blush
Recently I’ve been wearing my blush basically directly under my eyes and further towards the nose and I’m shocked what a difference it makes for me! It makes me look so much more awake
you radiate beauty and joy
Subbed immediately thx 😊
Hi….ummm I’m Arnée, if ya didn’t know 😂❤
I can't remember how it is for blush but for things like highlighter, bronzer, and contour it's about where the light is hitting. For highlighting, you want to put a small amount where the light hits the parts of your face. For bronzer, you want to put it on your cheekbones and the top of your forehead, and only use a little. For contour, you want to put a small amount where the shadows are on your cheekbones And you can also add a small amount on the bottom of your chin.
Thanks for the reminder 🎉❤.I do try to keep it higher-up.
I needed this 😅
Love this and you
Boom. Thank you.
