For this soft, polished look, I keep the base fresh and minimal, starting with the Dior Forever Skin Correct Concealer in shade 2N, applied lightly where needed in place of foundation for a more natural, skin-like finish. I blend everything seamlessly with a damp beauty blender, then brighten under the eyes using the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer in Vanilla. To set, I sweep the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Brightening Flawless Finish Powder in translucent across the complexion, keeping everything smooth but still luminous. Brows are brushed up and held in place with the NYX The Brow Glue in Clear, then softly defined using the Benefit Precisely, My Brow Pencil in shade 3.5.
For the eyes, I create a soft, feminine wash using the Prada Dimensions Multi-Effect Eyeshadow Palette in Nude (6g), leaning into those flattering pink-toned neutrals, before adding subtle definition with the Armani Smooth Silk Eye Pencil in shade 12 and the KIKO Milano Green Me Eyeliner. Lashes are finished with the Ilia Limitless Lash Mascara in Black for a lifted, fluttery effect. I then warm the complexion with the Dior Forever Nude Bronze in shade 032 Pink Bronze, followed by a fresh flush of colour using the YSL NU Lip & Cheek Balmy Tint in shade Pinch. To highlight, I use the Clé de Peau Beauté Luminizing Face Enhancer in shade 202, adding a soft, refined glow to the high points of the face.
Finally, the lips are defined with the Rimmel Lasting Finish Lip Liner in 110 Spice, layered with the YSL Rouge Pur Couture Lipstick in shade NM Nude Muse, and finished with the KIKO Milano 3D Hydra Lip Gloss in 42 Charming Copper for a glossy, dimensional nude finish.
