If you love a natural, fresh-faced, glowy look, then try this routine, which will help you nail your daytime glam.
In this routine Chantelle Baker, a Professional Makeup Artist shows us her favourite products to create a flawless base and a subtle and versatile look for all occasions.
Using a combination of high end and affordable products, you’ll be able to create an effortless look you can wear anywhere, while looking extra glowy and gorgeous.
Mix some of the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Hydrating Primer in with your foundation if you want to lighten the coverage.
Make sure you buff some onto the neck and under the chin.
Keep a few different shades of foundation on hand if your skin tone changes throughout the year. Mixing foundations can help you get the right shade.
Always blend out any foundation that sits in the creases.
For a natural look, blend your contour into your hairline.
An everyday glam look is all about creating a perfected base, with accentuated features, as well as a bit of a subtle glow..
You can achieve this look with a wide range of products ranging from high end to affordable brands, mixing and matching where you see fit.
In this routine, Chantelle Baker demonstrates how you can make a rounded look at home with these star products from L’Oreal.
Chantelle preps the skin with a few sprays of the Yves Saint Laurent Top Secrets Setting Spray to hydrate and illuminate the skin.
Add bounce and glow to the skin with the Lancôme Advanced Génifique Serum. Take one whole pump from the dropper and apply it to the skin. This product sinks into the skin really well, making it the perfect base for makeup.
To hydrate and prep the under eye area, Chantelle uses a few drops of the Lancôme Advanced Génifique Eye Light Pearl & Lash Concentrate, lightly patting in the product. This quick-drying product won’t leave any residue behind.
Chantelle uses a stippling brush to apply the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Hydrating Primer. This primer gives the skin a luminous finish, and works for all skin types.
Next, take the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Foundation and buffs it in with a buffing brush for even application. Start on the cheek and buff outwards. Make sure you buff some onto the neck and under the chin. Then, stipple on some more foundation in areas you need more coverage.
Hydrate and strengthen your lashes with the L'Oreal Paris Clinically Proven Lash Serum. Apply it directly to the root of your lashes along your upper lash line. This formula will help boost and repair your lashes, perfect for those who use false lashes.
Give your brows a bit of lift and tint with the L'Oreal Paris Brow Artist Plumper. Use the wand to brush your brows upwards.
Get a fluffy brush and dip it into a matte bronzer like the L'Oreal Paris Back To Bronze Matte Bronzer - 02 Sunkiss. Take this colour all over the lid using swirling and blending motions. Slowly build up the colour.
Coat the lashes with the L'Oreal Paris Paradise Mascara - Black. Remember to get into the roots and edges of your lashes. Take it onto your bottom lashes if you like!
Dot the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Concealer under the eyes with the doe foot applicator and blend it in with a small concealer brush. This brightens and hydrates the under eye area. Take any excess into the T-zone.
Using a darker shade of the Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk Concealer, create a subtle contour. Add three dots from the tip of the ear in a diagonal line down your cheek until it matches up with the point at which your eye ends. Blend that through with a buffing brush. Use any excess on the chin area and the hairline.
Take a large buffing brush and dip into the L'Oreal Paris Back To Bronze Matte Bronzer - 02 Sunkiss. Then, use it to lightly set the cream contour underneath.
Pop a peach coloured blush on like the L'Oreal Paris Life's A Peach Blush - 01 Peach Addict for a natural glow. Simply use a blush brush to sweep this colour onto the apples of the cheeks, and blend it through to your contour.
Brighten the under-eye with the Yves Saint Laurent Touche Éclat - Radiant Touch. Apply it over your concealer. Add a little around the nose and chin. Then, use a medium sized blending brush to blend the product away.
Use a lip pencil like the Giorgio Armani Smooth Silk Lip Pencil to define your lips. Start at the top, and then the bottom of the lip to create a pronounced pout. Then, naturally define the rest of the lip. Then, use a clean lip brush to blend the liner through the rest of the lip.
Set your makeup with the Giorgio Armani Neo Nude Fusion Powder. Take a small setting brush and apply the powder through the centre of the face.
Finish off your makeup with a few spritzes of the Yves Saint Laurent Top Secrets Setting Spray. This will make your makeup last all day and help the makeup merge with your skin, plus provide some added glow.
Add some final glow to your lip with the Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte Shine Lipstick, dabbing a small amount of the product on straight from the bullet.
Chantelle adds a dash of fragrance at the end of her look, because why not? She uses the Giorgio Armani Si Passione Eau de Parfum, which blends base notes of Cedarwood and Vanilla with Rose, Jasmine and Pear.
We hope you enjoyed this easy, daytime look, with a glowing base for every day. You can use this mix of high end and affordable brands to recreate it, or mix and match as you please, and even use the products you have at home!
