Unraveling the Magic of Cut Creases: Techniques and Product Analysis Explained!


Introduction

In the YouTube makeup tutorial called “Mastering the Art of Everyday Makeup,” professional makeup artist Allie walks us through her everyday makeup routine, offering guidance on how to create a fresh and polished day look with ease and style. With a focus on enhancing natural beauty rather than masking it, Allie’s approach is all about creating a look that’s approachable, wearable, and beautifully you.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Allie kickstarts her regimen by emphasizing the importance of moisturized and primed skin. She showcases the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base which doubles as a primer and moisturizer, creating a fresh, smooth canvas for makeup application.

2. Next, she applies a dab of Tarte Amazonian Clay Full Coverage Foundation using a damp beauty blender. She advises starting with minimal product and building coverage as needed, maintaining a more natural, skin-like finish.

3. The third step is concealer. Allie uses NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer to address dark circles and any skin imperfections. She applies it in a triangle under the eyes and blends it well to seamlessly converge with the foundation.

4. She sets her makeup with translucient powder, Laura Mercier setting powder was seen on the desk, and then follows up with bronzer, using Benefit’s Hoola Bronzer to provide subtle contouring and add warmth to the complexion.

5. For her eyes, Allie begins by filling in the brows with Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Wiz, claiming brows as “the frames of our faces.” She then opts for a neutral eyeshadow- a blend of MAC’s Saddle and Texture shades- and a liner – Stila Stay All Day Eyeliner – to define her eyes subtly.

6. Allie completes her look by accentuating the cheeks with a pop of NARS Orgasm Blush and swiping on a layer of MAC Velvet Teddy lipstick for a muted, natural lip color.

Key Tips and Advice

Some standout advice from Allie is her emphasis on blending. Whether it’s the foundation, concealer, or eyeshadow, she insists that the key to a natural, polished look is blending everything flawlessly. She also encourages starting with less product and building it up as needed, to prevent a heavy, cakey look.

Conclusion

Throughout the tutorial, Allie demystifies the process of everyday makeup, breaking it down into manageable steps that even makeup novices can master. She promotes an empowering message that makeup should enhance your natural beauty and create a version of you that you feel most comfortable and confident with.

    I love this technique; however I’d highly recommend using coconut oil versus vasaline, xenoestrogens sre highly absorbed through the thin skin ( remember skin is the largest ORGAN of the body) these toxins mimic estrogen and can really offset homeostasis
    Coconut is also useful for removing make up, heals wounds and scars can be used as a moisturizer too
