The trend of instagram-model matte, airbrushed skin has seen its day with the recent rise of dewy-natural skin. Makeup wearers across the globe are opting for the no-makeup-makeup look. With lighter coverage, "your skin but better" tutorials being posted by top influencers, it's no mystery as to why this regime is dominating the beauty industry.
Vancouver-based beauty influencer, Samantha Ravandahl has been very verbal about the detriments to her self-esteem that the airbrushed-look has had. By using her platform to feature un-edited, real-skin photos she has inspired makeup-wearers across the globe to follow suit.
If you are not comfortable with the look of your skin without makeup, there are many resources out there that take you step-by-step from primer to setting spray using products that deliver a natural, effortless look.
Brands have taken notice of this shift to natural-looking skin and have begun releasing full lines of products tailored specifically to a no-makeup-makeup look. Some of my favourite products to achieve this look are...
FOUNDATION:IT Cosmetics Your Skin But Better CC+ Cream
CONCEALER: First Aid Beauty Bendy Avocado Concealer
HIGHLIGHTER: Marc Jacobs Glow Stick Illuminator
EYELINER: Marc Jacobs Highliner Gel Eye Crayon
MASCARA: Milk Kush High Volume Mascara
EYEBROW: Glossier Boy Brow
LIPS: Lano Tinted Lip Balm
SETTING SPRAY: Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mist
Although the majority of these products are considered high-end, there are a slew of drugstore alternatives that are available, which I will post about soon!
