BAKING 101 TIPS ✨

Makeup baking is a crucial technique for achieving a polished appearance. This method utilizes setting powders to lock in your foundation, providing full coverage and extending the wear of your makeup. To master baking, start by applying a concealer that matches your skin tone under the eyes and on any highlighted areas. Next, apply a generous amount of translucent powder over the concealer, allowing it to set for 5-10 minutes. This temporary ‘bake’ allows the heat from your skin to absorb the product, which will ultimately provide a brighter and more defined under-eye area. After the baking period, simply dust off the excess powder for a seamless finish. For best results, use high-quality products that suit your skin type. Brands like e.l.f. and others offer excellent baking powders and blushes that can complement this technique. Experiment with different products to find your favorites that work harmoniously with your skin. Brow and contouring should be applied prior to baking to create an overall finished look. And don’t forget to set your makeup with a setting spray to ensure longevity. Perfect this skill and watch your makeup game soar!
