I used to be obsessed with having a matte complexion and couldn’t even fathom not wearing powder over foundation. Oh, how times have changed! I now prefer a dewy look. Dewy skin doesn’t have to look oily. In fact, it makes you look refreshed, healthy and flawless. Check out my four easy steps to creating a dewy look!
1. I find the best way to achieve a healthy, dewy look is to start with great skin care. Find a routine that works for you and make sure to include a cleanser, toner, serum, and finish off with a great moisturizer and eye cream. I have been using Simple Hydrating Light Moisturizer and it’s great. Once your skin is hydrated, the dewy look is easy to achieve.
2. BB creams are wonderful for this look. After moisturizing your skin, allow your moisturizer to soak in for a bit, then apply a light layer of BB cream in your perfect shade. I have been using Too Faced Tinted Beauty Balm in Vanilla Glow and it is a perfect color match to my skin. It also works amazingly well to create a fresh dewy complexion.
3. After applying your BB cream, use a concealer in a slightly lighter shade to cover any imperfections and to brighten up under your eyes and on either side of your nose. I have been loving Maybelline Dream Lumi Touch Highlighting Concealer. It is a brush-on formula that blends wonderfully, as well as leaving a bright, flawless finish.
4. After you’ve concealed and highlighted, use a cream blush on the apples of your cheeks. I recommend Maybelline Dream Bouncy Blush. It comes in tons of fun colors and the color is buildable.
These few steps are all you need to achieve a fresh, dewy look! Add some cream eye shadow and mascara followed by a nude lip color and you are ready to go! I hope you will give this look a try and let me know how you like it.
