Hi Alphas!
Welcome back to my youtube channel!
Its Kalei and today I’m going to show you how to get a makeup artist’s approach to
foundation, contour, highlighting.
It could be because I’m getting older or because I’m lazy, but I’ve been working
on my technique.
A Celebrity makeup artist Monika Blunder is like, my go-to inspiration as well as Wayne
goss.
I just love the way that they apply makeup and that’s how I wanted to start applying
my makeup too!
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good face beat, but I also enjoy a soft feature enhancing
makeup too!
I feel that the first step to achieving this type of makeup look is good skin.
Staying on top of your skin care routine morning and night is very, very important rather you
are a teen-ager or middle aged or more mature.
Staying on top of it is going to give you the best makeup application so, I’m going
to start off with a few products…
This is called the Redefine from Rodan and fields.
It’s an anti-aging product.
I’ve had this for a little bit and I’ve spoken a lot about it here on my youtube channel.
I still have the A.m cream; the P.M cream is gone and everything else is gone but this,
and I’ve been savoring it.
And I’m going to take a little bit underneath the eye area.
You want to be gentle.
You don’t want to tug too much on that area.
I’m also going to be using a radiance oil.
I’ve been raving about this lately.
This is from Borghese.
I’m going to give you guys a tip that I like to do…
If you were to apply layer of oil before makeup application, your skin won’t produce so
much oil.
Therefore, helping you throughout the day not be so oily.
I’m not going to say that you won’t be oily, because I still notice I still get oily.
That’s with a primer, depending on what primer I use and without.
But, I have noticed it’s not as much as it should be.
I’m going to be using the covergirl trublend.
This is for oily skin.
What I like to do is, push up like this and press down.
I feel like that fills my pore a lot better.
I know this Seems like a lot of prepping, but if you are going for the skin like look,
this is very crucial to making sure that the makeup looks even and your skin looks on-point
and balanced.
It has made a difference for me, so I spend more time doing that than applying layers
and layers and layers of foundation.
I love this facial spray…
it has Aloe and rose water.
It’s from Mario Badescue.
IT’s about $7 at Ulta and I’m just going to spray my face for an instant hydration.
I’m going to be using the Maybelline Matte-Porleless.
I have it upside down because I’m pretty much done with it, so I want to get every
last bit.
This is probably one of my Top favorite drugstore foundations.
The key to this is to only get a little bit of product.
If you get too much product, you are going to be obligated and feel like you need to
use a lot because you don’t want to waste it.
So, use as little product as possible!
I’m just going to add like, 2-3 drops.
These are life savers, Promise you!
Have one in the color G50 and I bought one in the color N80.
You want take your ring finger and just wanna start applying in the center of the face first.
That color is actually pretty perfect.
In person!
On camera, it might not look that way!
This is going to help you keep it fresh and keep light, thin layers.
This is why I like runnier foundations because I feel like you get light, thin layers.
This might be tedious so this probably isn’t the best technique to do when you are in a
rush.
If you are in a rush, you gotta do what you gotta do but this is for events and if you
have time to do your makeup.
I know most of us would just throw it all on our face and blend it out.
I’ve done that many times in Tutorials.
It’s just easier… but, this helps me not use so much foundation.
Also, if you want a nice flawless approach and skin like texture, you want to work the
foundation into your skin little more than normal.
Just like you would take time to blend out eyeshadow, this is exactly what you are doing
with the foundation so its even.
I’m going to use two different concealers for highlighting and for working on the under
eye area.
I’m using the Maybelline fit me in number 25 and I’m also going to be using the Maybelline
age-rewind.
I just really like Maybelline concealers in general.
They are some of my favorite concealers.
And again, minimalist approach.
So, I’m applying this in the areas where I feel I need it.
And you know your face!
So, do what works for you!
I’m going to pinch the point of the beauty blender and go into the under eye area.
I’m also going to bring the concealer in the corner of the eye to add a little bit
more brightness.
And work it out!
Just like this.
Now, I’m going to go in with the Maybelline Fit me… this is a deeper shade foundation
and I’m going to use it warm up the face.
So, not too much…
I’m going to start on my cheeks!
To make the roundness of my face appear a lot thinner, I’m going under the jawline
and I’m also going to do it around the chin.
This is going to help elongate the face.
Again with the beauty blender, I’m starting off with my nose.
I don’t want a bunch of product ending up on my nose If i started with my cheeks or
jawline.
Start off with the center of the face so it doesn’t become muddy.
Keep those lines, but make sure they are blended!
I’m going to be using the airspun powder.
And I’m just going to set the under eye.
I’m going to be using a brush instead of a sponge this time.
I feel like the brush kind of gives a lighter application.
This is a sheer mineral powder from Neutrogena and I got it originally as a powder foundation
and it doesn’t do much for me so I’m just going to use it to set any other areas of
my face.
Very lightly.
I’m not using a lot of product at all.
I’m going to use the light contour… usually I’d use this color and I’m going to go
in with the light contour and that’s why I like this palette.
It gives you options and I’m going in with a nyx brush.
Lightly apply this color right out here first.
And then, work it into the skin here.
From the same palette, I’m going to take the matte highlight here and I’m just going
to brighten up the under eye area just a little bit more.
I know I used the concealer, I set it, so you can’t really see it.
But I am going to brighten right in here.
This is a nyx blush in the color Mauve in out and it’s a nice berry tone blush.
I’m just going to pick up this color here, this gold color on this highlighting brush
from Sigma and I’m just going to highlight a little.
Not too much, cause I’m trying to make sure this is wearable for you.
