Glamorous Glow


Do you find it hard to achieve a dewy, glowing look due to acne, redness, etc?
I think the key is knowing that although you want to look dewy, achieving a dewy, glowing look is about placing and layering the right products in the right places. 
You can’t just apply an illuminator and expect flawless looking skin.

I wanted to try a glowing look worthy of the red carpet!

Here are the products I used on my face!

As you can see, there are eight products! 
Step one: I used the Josie maran illuminator as a base all over! (Bottom right) 

Step two: the YSL concealer under eyes, center forehead and on blemishes!

Step three: small amounts of a light foundation blended around “problem areas”, mine are my chin and around my nose.

Step four: NARS concealer under eyes.

Step five: contour blush shade on cheek bone hollows, then opal from the Kat Von D Alchemist pallet on cheek bones!

Step six: powder under eyes, under hollows of cheeks, and sides of forehead or anywhere with a bit too much sheen.

Step seven: I place my brighter colored illuminators over my nose, cheekbones, forehead, Cupid’s bow, brow bones. 

So as you can see, there’s A LOT put into getting that “just woke up this way” glow!
I also used Tarte, Stila, Smashbox, YSL, Anastasia, & Lancome to achieve the full look. 
My new red Smashbox lipsheen smells amazing and is a gorgeous color with lots of dimension. Definitely high maintenance though!

In person there are so many glowing shades when the sun or light hits my face. 

What do you think?

If you’d like to know how I achieved my eye or subtle two tone lip look, leave me a comment!
