TIPS ON GETTING GLOWING SKIN WITHOUT FOUNDATION

Heyy 🤗 ! My skin is mostly clear, except for my dark circles and little dark spots, so I wasn't planning on wearing any foundation/tinted moisturizer. Any tips on still getting glowing skin after I apply concealer on my problem areas?Illuminator or translucent powder alone maybe?

Re: TIPS ON GETTING GLOWING SKIN WITHOUT FOUNDATION

I rarely wear foundation myself, it's too much hassle a lot of the time, and my skin is (usually) super clear, but it's so dry that foundation will emphasize that all the time.
I like to wear the Urban Decay Optical Illusion Primer, that usually covers little imperfections. I also like the Tarte Timeless Smoothing Primer, but it's not as easy to use as the Urban Decay one. An illuminating spray, like the one from CoverFX or Tarte would also be a good idea.
If you have dark circles, then use a lightweight concealer on those areas, like the YSL Touche Éclat. That has helped my dark circles so much. You might also want to look into an eye mask, those can help as well.

Re: TIPS ON GETTING GLOWING SKIN WITHOUT FOUNDATION

@Anonymous I'm not sure what your skin type is, but I like to use cream products for glow when I'm not using foundation. 

 

Here's some makeup/skincare that I use and like

- MAC strobe cream (you can use this all over like a glowy moisturizer)

- RMS Living Lumanizer 

- Clinique Chubby Highlighter

- Tatcha Dewy Mist

- Fresh Youth Preserve Radiance Lotion

 

Here's some newer things you may want to look at

- Fresh Instant Glow Lumanizer (moisturizer)

- Josie Maran Moonstone Drops Priming and Highlighting Oil

- Tarte Rainforest of the Sea Radiance Drops

What is your skin type?

 

Some good tricks:

Stay Hydrated

Try an illuminating moisturizer (based on your skin type)

Test out a setting spray w/ an illuminating finish (Cover FX, Tarte, Tatcha)
