a very Parisian approach to makeup . . . keep it simple and only use what makes you feel beautiful on the inside.

prep

• with: beautyblender + avant-atlas matcha + rosewater skin mist.

• how: run room temperature water on entire bb until it is fully soaked, squeeze out excess water, spray bb 1-2x with avant-atlas matcha + rosewater skin mist.

1. foundation

   • with:

     • daily: clinique hydrating cc cream spf 30 / ilia super serum skin tint spf 40 — I wear light and balos in each, respectively.

     • sport: clinique workout makeup broad spectrum — I wear 01 light.

     • night: nars sheer glow foundation — I wear oslo.

   • how: apply a small amount (you can always add more!) onto the bb and evenly distribute it onto the face or just on specific areas. I make sure to get under my eyes and the sides of my nose, but I will skip the bridge. lightly dab the foundation in with the wet bb in a bouncing motion.

2. concealer

   • with: nars radiant creamy concealer — I wear vanilla.

   • how: swipe product from the brush onto index finger, apply to areas as a touch-up, and lightly dab and blend with middle finger.

3. blush

   • with:

     • cream: glossier cloud paint — I wear puff (a natural pink) or beam (a peach).

     • stick: au naturale — I wear grapefruit.

     • powder: nars.

   • how: with the cloud paint or stick, apply a small amount onto middle finger and seamlessly blend from mid-cheekbones up toward the corner of the outer eye on both cheeks; with the powder, take the same route but with a blush brush.

4. highlighter

   • with: glossier haloscope — I wear quartz / moonchild glow kit.

   • how: apply from the highest points on brow bone to cheek bone. for glossier use ring finger; for moonchild use either finger or a small brush.

5. eyes

   • with: glossier lidstar / laritzy topaz liquid beam / model co eyelites.

   • how: apply to eyelids and lightly blend in.

6. mist

   • with: avant-atlas matcha + rosewater skin mist.

   • how: evenly mist face to set products + hydrate skin + glow. mist skin at any time day + night to refresh!

7. lips

   • with:

     • balm: glossier balm dot com (my favorite is rose) / fresh sugar lip treatment / cocoa butter lip balm.

     • gloss: glossier lip gloss / armani beauty shine gloss — always prep with a balm.

   • how: apply all day long!

side notes

• depending on the day, I might use only concealer and blush, other days the whole routine — I always factor in my schedule and do what I’m feeling that day.

• always wash brushes / beautyblender after each use. you can use baby shampoo for the brushes and bar soap or beautyblender cleanser for the bb.

• misting with avant-atlas matcha + rosewater skin mist is the best way to wake up and refresh the face at any time of day.

• for foundation and concealer, the best way to find your shade is to test it on your neck.

TCFN!
