Skincare and base
Keep the skin semi-matte so you can layer blush without it looking cakey.
- Use a light moisturizer or gel cream.
- Use a matte or blurring primer if you get oily.
- Apply medium-coverage foundation and powder the T-zone.

Winged eyes
Big liner and lashes are the signature.

Blush draping
Blush is the heart of the look.
