Radiant skin was recognized as one of the main beauty trends of fall 2016. We tell you how to achieve this effect with makeup in just 5 steps. Are you ready to shine beautifully? Then hurry up and take a look!
The trend for completely matte skin is a thing of the past. Now a slight glow of the skin is in fashion! Today we will tell you in detail how to achieve the effect of sleek, illuminated skin from the inside in just five steps! We are canceling this fall. dull color face and arm ourselves with highlighters to create radiant skin and healthy shine faces!
Step 1. Moisturizer
Face cream, Merveillance Expert, Nuxe
Moisturizing the skin is a very important step that should not be forgotten. Moisturizing allows you to achieve a natural glow to your skin. In addition, all subsequent products will be applied unevenly on unmoisturized skin. Therefore, we recommend using a light moisturizer at this stage: it will moisturize the skin and prepare it for the next stage.
Step 2: Primer
Makeup base "Pearl", Paese
To create radiant skin, you will need a reflective primer (base under). It can be applied to the entire face, or to some areas that need to be highlighted. The base matches the tone and smoothes the skin, and reflective particles give the skin an inner glow.
Step 3. Foundation with a radiant effect
Foundation with radiance effect, True Radiance, Clarins
Application foundation is next, no less important. To create the effect of illuminated skin from within, it is important to apply the tone evenly to the skin using a light foundation or BB cream for the face. Choose a product with a radiance effect - it will give your skin a dewy, sleek glow.
Step 4: Face Powder
Loose powder, Poudre Libre, Bourjois
In order to set the tone, you must use powder. Apply the product in a thin layer using a fluffy brush. By the way, loose powder gives easier and natural coating on the skin.
Step 5: Highlighter
Highlighter, Mineralize Skinfinish Lightscapade, MAC
The last step towards glowing skin is applying a facial highlighter. Give preference to satin highlighters: they have finely ground reflective particles that very delicately illuminate the skin, and therefore are perfect for daytime use. Let us remind you that highlighter should be applied to the most prominent areas of the face - the apples of the cheeks, the tick above upper lip and on the back of the nose.
If you don't have a highlighter on hand, use light shimmery shadows in white or pinkish shades.
We told you how to achieve glowing skin at home. As you can see, it's not difficult at all! Complete your glowing look with a neutral shade of lipstick (a colored balm is a great option) and add a light coat of mascara to your eyes.
While the sun stubbornly hides behind the puffy clouds, and the dry and cold wind blows everything that comes in its way, the skin is unlikely to please us with a fresh and healthy look - external factors significantly affect her condition and “well-being”. Makeup artists believe that the situation needs to be corrected at least with the help of visual techniques. Therefore, radiant skin in many looks from the fall-winter 2014/15 fashion shows is, if not the only thing, then definitely one of the main accents.
Diane von Furstenberg, autumn-winter 2014/15
It is worth noting, however, that each of the backstage professionals interprets this trend in their own way. At the shows of Ralph Lauren, Jil Sander and Alberta Ferretti, the models' skin, which remained matte, still emanated a glow - not superficial, but as if internal. The radiance of the skin looked different in the images of the girls from the Givenchy show - Nicolas Degennes, the creative director of the house of makeup, did not spare the highlighter, so that the models’ cheekbones shimmered beautifully thanks to mother-of-pearl particles. Under lighting, the effect became even more expressive. For Diane von Furstenberg and Christopher Kane, everything looked different. On the models’ faces there is a slightly dewy glow, which you need to be careful with when recreating in real life: only on impeccably clean and smooth skin does it not look like a greasy sheen.

In each of these cases, skin radiance was achieved different ways. The effect of glowing from within can be achieved thanks to the appropriate tonal products, just evenly applied to the skin. To shimmer on the cheekbones, you can use not only a highlighter, but also light shimmering shadows - just apply them to the “apples” of the cheeks, the “tick” above the lips, the “back” of the nose and above the eyebrows. A dewy glow will appear in your makeup if you moisturize your skin well in advance and use a very light liquid foundation or fluid. But whatever the chosen method for obtaining the desired result, it is important to remember that with a noticeable emphasis on skin radiance, it is better to abandon glossy and shiny textures in eye and lip makeup.
- To make your skin glow on its own, without the help of decorative cosmetics, do not forget to regularly (but not too often, a week is the optimal interval between peeling procedures) use exfoliating products. Why is this so important? The thing is that the layer of keratinized cells interferes with light reflection and is therefore the culprit of skin dullness.
- Not only exfoliation is important, but also other skin care rituals. Daily moisturizing and using toners after cleansing will help you achieve a natural glow.
- One of the tricks of makeup artists to give the skin radiance is to mix your usual foundation with a drop of liquid pearlescent highlighter. The desired effect will be noticeable.
- Facial massage and the use of specialized cleansing brushes can improve your complexion, making it fresh and radiant due to the fact that they stimulate blood circulation.
- Have you done everything to make your skin glow with freshness and health? Accentuate the result with a little trick: apply a transparent, barely shimmery lip balm to your lips.
With the onset of summer, not only the wardrobe undergoes changes, but also a cosmetic bag: dense textures are replaced by light ones, and restrained shades are replaced by bright ones. Our selection of video tutorials from bloggers and makeup artists today proves that even in the heat you can do comfortable makeup with interesting accents.
With thin arrows
and freckles
A big fan of anime, blogger McKenna Kaylin is often inspired by it, including when creating everyday looks. Thin arrows along the contour of the upper eyelids, extended far beyond them, complete with thickly painted eyelashes, look cute and touching. A light, radiant complexion and active blush help to achieve maximum resemblance to cartoon heroines - note that McKenna applies blush high on the cheekbones.
Painted freckles add additional charm to the look. Their natural appearance is achieved not only by the choice of color, but also by a combination of small splashes (a brush will help with this) and individual large dots (they should be applied with a pencil or eyeliner). To apply freckles, McKenna chose a flexible tongue brush, but alternatively, you can take a closer look at duofibre or use a sponge with large pores. A fixing spray will help prolong the durability of your makeup, and for eyebrows it makes sense to choose gel rather than shadow - it will last better in the heat.
With bright eyeliner
along the lower eyelid
Light makeup without false eyelashes and blinding cheekbones in the best traditions of American bloggers is rather an exception for Kathleen’s channel. In this tutorial, the girl shows how easy it is to adapt neon orange color to everyday makeup: just move bright accent on the mucous membrane of the lower eyelid. To ensure that the color stays on the mucous membrane longer and is comfortable to wear, we recommend using gel, hardening textures or fixing a cream pencil with matching shadows. The gradient on the upper eyelid, on the contrary, looks out of date: we advise you to avoid darkening the outer corner of the eye or increase the shading of the shadows higher. You can support such an active color as orange with blush of a similar shade, as Kathleen does, or with translucent lipstick to match.
With white arrows
and without mascara
Such a simple and already classic makeup technique as using an arrow can easily be transformed from conservative to creative - you just need to change the black color to white. In the two years since this video was recorded, the idea has not lost its relevance. Moreover, the white pencil has evolved from a narrowly applicable product for highlighting mucous membranes to a universal one: today there are a great variety of white eyeliners of different consistencies and even matte lipsticks. The latter, by the way, are the most comfortable to wear in front of your eyes. Gives a futuristic look White color as the main one and the absence of mascara on the eyelashes. By the way, it is not at all necessary to draw a classic arrow - experiment: from thin curved arcs in the crease of the eyelid to wide straight stripes from the inner corners of the eyes to the outer ones; from clear graphics to shaded haze; from solid lines to strokes, circles and triangles. The main thing is to remain ascetic and not get carried away with drawing a zebra or daisies.
With bright shadows
and glossy finish
Blogger Karen Jung keeps her finger on the pulse: she has released several video tutorials on creating various summer makeup. We loved her look with red eyeshadow under a glossy glaze. In the best Asian traditions, Karen begins her makeup by preparing the skin for applying cosmetics: cleansing of excess oil using micellar water and applying a serum with moisturizing ingredients. The complexion is corrected with translucent radiant BB cream, and the shape is corrected with bright coral blush and pink shadows as a highlighter. Pay attention to the places where the last two are applied - they differ significantly from the traditional ones. European makeup, but no worse than stripes on the cheeks for correcting the oval of the face.
As the main accent, Karen chose garnet red eyeshadow with a metallic sheen, which is enhanced under a layer of clear vinyl gloss. The shine on the eyes seems unwearable only at first glance: many brands have released products with long-lasting formulas and pleasant textures. But it definitely won’t hurt to protect your eyes from glitter flowing inside - to do this, use waterproof contour or mascara.
With wet skin effect
and contrasting lips
Minimalistic makeup with a dewy skin effect and an emphasis on graphic dark lips became for Diana Kurmey business card, and we share a love for this image. Simple to perform, such makeup will not leave its wearer unnoticed. In order not to cross the fine line between stylish minimalism and a gothic look, you should abandon active contouring in favor of naturally radiant skin: replace sculptors with a cool gray undertone with pigments close to natural blush, highlighter with Vaseline or a rich balm. You can have a blast with a contrasting lip color, giving them the main role: the less natural the lipstick is in relation to the skin, the better.
With glitter freckles
and rhinestone
Korean Faye is not only a beauty blogger, but also a makeup artist. This lesson contains typical asian makeup techniques: visually lengthening the eyes using an arrow at the outer corner, a mix of warm coral blush with cool pink, which Faye applies high on the cheekbones and shades almost to the lower eyelid, as well as a gradient on the lips of the same shades. What makes the makeup unusual is the use of large glitter flakes mixed with rhinestones on the cheekbones instead of highlighter. Mousse matte lipsticks will help reduce the time needed to create this makeup - they can be used both for their intended purpose and as blush and even eyeshadow; and the shining accent can be shifted from the cheekbones to the bridge of the nose, thereby simulating shiny freckles.
In a single color scheme
Vegan, feminist, smart and simply beautiful, Madeline talks on her channel about travel, clothes and makeup. The latter does not play a major role in her life, so the blogger offers mostly everyday images. In this video, Madeline shows light, radiant makeup in a single color scheme - a win-win, when the soul asks for something simple but effective. Products have been chosen to suit the season: cream shadows are more relevant than ever in the heat (easy to apply and blend with your fingers) and Matt lipstick(with her you are not afraid of loose hair sticking to your lips). Being a vegan, Madeline chooses ethical cosmetics, proving by personal example that external beauty is inseparable from internal beauty.
With freckles all over my face
and glossy lips
Bloggers are often inspired by images created by professionals for the glossy or catwalk shows. Beauty blogger Cheryl from Ontario proves that it’s not gods who burn pots and any makeup can be easily replicated at home. Not the most comfortable to wear, but no less impressive look, it will require tolerance for the abundance of sticky shine on the face, and for those with long hair, also tied up hair.
If you move away from the framework of inspiration in a specific way, the field for imagination is limitless: starting with the use of complementary or, conversely, diametrically opposed bright shades for lips and freckles, ending with experiments with colored glosses to create watercolor layers. To make your life as easy as possible and not have to check every minute to see if your makeup has smeared, we recommend using gel products as a base - they are the most resistant to abrasion under glitter - and working out the contours of glossy areas with a transparent pencil.
With “festival” smokey eyes
and a geometric arrow
With the onset of summer, YouTube is filled with video instructions not only for everyday seasonal makeup, but also for bright fantasy ones - for visitors to music festivals. Most often, these images are a mix of hippie makeup with Indian war paint. As an alternative to stripes all over the face, the author of this tutorial suggests turning up the color of a traditional smokey eye to the maximum, adding a geometric arrow in a contrasting shade as an accent. We advise you to experiment with the color of the base for duochrome pigments, the proportions and texture of the arrows.
With radiant tone and eyelids
Shining smooth skin without active contour and highlights - the technique is old, but this year, thanks to the star makeup artist Rene Sangan, it received a new name - non-contouring. The essence of this makeup is to use a minimum amount of products: start with a moisturizing base that suits your skin type, then apply a light tone and slightly correct problem areas using a concealer with reflective particles. The relief of the face is emphasized with means that are as close as possible to the natural palette. As a summer adaptation, this makeup can use BB or CC cream, which can simultaneously act as a foundation, care product and provide sun protection. Due to its versatility, this base can be used as a base for any eye and lip makeup. A good alternative to neutral beige tones for all the time daytime makeup Shining shadows of pastel shades will serve.
Just a little more and it’s finally summer... I’ve been waiting for it for so long... I’ve been waiting for so long for the moment when I can soak up the bright sun and breathe in this hot air! It was this anticipation that inspired this post. Who, like me, expects sunny days - please, under the cat
In order to be a chocolate mulatto, I will need a self-tanner. I used St. for this. Moriz Instant Self Tanning Mousse in Dark. By the way, I am very pleased with this purchase. In 8 hours, I turned from a “pale toadstool” into a tanned lady who had recently arrived from the “seas”. And for one thing, I lifted my spirits with the reflection in the mirror. And who doesn’t like to contemplate their beautifully baked (even if not in the sun) legs and shoulders?
I’ll say right away that I didn’t apply self-tanning to my face, I was afraid. I only applied a little of it to the area of my jaw so that there was no sudden transition. But later I’ll compensate for all this with makeup, I swear
As usual, I start my makeup with a base. For this I use NARS Smudge Proof Eyeshadow Base, carefully applying the product to the eyelids and ends of the eyebrows. 
Using a Sigma E65 brush I apply Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Pomade in the shade Taupe. After drawing the shape, I shade the beginning of the eyebrow with an eyelash brush. This way we get more natural look our eyebrows. 
For some, you can stop at this step, but I love graphic eyebrows, so I use the E15 brush from Sigma to correct the shape using MAC Studio Finish Concealer in the shade NW20. 
For me, eyebrows are a very important element of makeup; the face immediately begins to look different. I am often asked the question whether I can do without cosmetics. In principle, yes, but just let me draw the eyebrows
And here it is for you clear example
Well, now it’s the turn of that one sunny makeup
I armed myself with Dior Nude Air foundation serum in shade 020, which is a shade or two darker than my skin tone. I want to warn you right away that it is suitable for normal or oily skin, because... This product tends to highlight flaking. I apply the serum with my fingers like a cream, trying to spread the tone evenly across my face. 
I always cover up dark circles under my eyes. I apply MaxFactor Pan Stick in shade 13 directly from the stick under my eyes and pat the product in with a sponge from Real Techniques, which I have previously wetted. 
I duplicate this whole thing with MAC Studio Finish Concealer in the shade NW20 for an even more “bruise-free” effect
And so that our concealer efforts are not in vain, I fix the area under the eyes with E.l.f. Eye Brightener and Setting Brush from RT. 
Finally, all the uninteresting work is over, finally we get down to the “juice” itself. I set the Guerlain Meteorites Perles foundation serum in the shade Medium, applying their Blush brush from RT. In addition to fixation, this will provide us with a noticeable shine
Chanel Soleil Tan De Chanel Bronzing Makeup Base will help me draw a tanned face. I apply this base on the cheekbones, on the contours of the forehead, slightly on the nose and chin with an RT Expert Face brush, and after the border I blend it with a damp sponge from the same company. 
So that the “tan” lasts until the last moment, I fix it MAC powder Mineralize Skinfinish Natural in Dark Deep. I also use the same product to draw out the crease of the eyes and the lower lash line, thereby emphasizing the look. For those interested, I used a Sigma E45 brush for my eyes, and an F25 brush for the face contour
I looked at myself in the mirror and realized that I didn’t have enough shine, that’s why I took out Bobbi Brown Shimmer Brick Compact Pink Quartz. Setting Brush I apply powder on the bridge of the nose and its tip, on the cheekbones, on the upper lip. I also highlight the inner corners of the eyes and the moving eyelid. 
It's a matter of small things, namely lips and eyelashes. To do this, I take L"oreal Volume Millions Lashes So Couture mascara, L"etoile lip pencil Lingerie 109 and MAC Fresh Brew lipstick. 
Now my face “suits” my body, or rather my tan
I shine like I’m rested and happy man. 
Although... You can shine even more! This extra step is optional. But why not if you really want to?! I take MAC Fix+ and spray it on my face, namely in the places where Shimmer Brick was previously applied. With this action we will make our makeup more real, thereby removing excess powder. 
Well, that's all for sure now! I am pleased! Summer, heat, tan, glow, only the sea is missing
It looks like it turned out quite well natural makeup, not flashy, but perfectly emphasizing the beauty and radiance of the skin. I hope you liked it and didn’t get tired reading my post
P.S. I wish everyone a speedy holiday and a sunny mood
First, let's figure out what products are needed to do this makeup.
You will need:
- liquid highlighter Master Strobing Liquid Highlighter, Maybelline New York;
- foundation Luminous Silk Foundation - 2.0, Giorgio Armani;
- Naked eyeshadow palette, Urban Decay;
- Hypnose Doll Eyes Waterproof mascara, Lancôme;
- spray for fixing and fixing makeup All Nighter, Urban Decay.
What is wet makeup?
He first appeared on the podium in 2010. It was then that Gucci makeup artists decided to abandon perfectly matte skin and applied makeup that gave the models’ faces a dewy glow. At that time it was a very bold move, but now almost every second girl chooses such makeup for a photo shoot. Why? Thanks to the dewy effect, the skin looks young, healthy and radiant. It seems that she glows from within.
- The main secret of this makeup is making the right choice textures To achieve a natural effect, you need to use liquid or cream foundations. Foundations with small reflective particles in their composition are also suitable.
- Another important point- proper preparation of the skin for application decorative means. Before applying makeup, use a scrub and then apply moisturizer. And take your time. Apply a new product only after the previous one has been absorbed.
- The key to successful wet makeup is moderation. If you overdo it with moisturizer or decorative cosmetics, the skin will look oily. Too much highlighter won't do you any good either.
How to achieve the effect of wet skin in makeup: photo instructions
To make it easier for you to understand how to do wet face makeup, use our step-by-step instructions.
Prepare your skin for makeup: wash your face with foam or gel, wipe your face with toner, apply moisturizer, eye cream, and lip balm. For a dewy skin effect, use a foundation with a satin finish, such as Giorgio Armani's Luminous Silk Foundation.
If you want to achieve the maximum wet effect, before foundation Apply a radiant makeup base, or mix it with foundation in a one-to-one ratio. Don't powder your face!
Cream or liquid textures are also suitable for facial correction. Use a dark cream corrector on the area under the cheekbones, in the temple area, and, if necessary, on the wings of the nose. Blend cream blush with a radiant effect over the apples of your cheeks and along the sides of your forehead. Add cream or liquid highlighter to the top of the cheekbones, above the eyebrows (you can connect these points with a single line), on the tick above the upper lip, on the bridge of the nose and chin.
How to apply highlighter correctly, watch our video.
Blend all the edges with a brush with duofibre bristles or a cosmetic sponge.
Don't forget about eye makeup. You can do, for example, a smokey eye in bronze and black tones. Paint your eyelashes with waterproof mascara.
Add either a special gloss or lip balm/gloss to your eyelids. But make sure that the product does not contain menthol or cinnamon - it should not have the effect of increasing lip volume, otherwise it will cause eye irritation. To set your makeup, use a setting spray instead of powder.
If your makeup is intended for a photo shoot, moisturize your skin additionally with a spray bottle, or rub glycerin/vaseline oil in your palms and apply it to the skin of your neck and face (over makeup) with gentle applying movements. We told you how else you can use Vaseline in makeup. Ready!
If the finish is too wet, lightly blot your face with a napkin.
Wet skin effect in evening makeup
Radiant, seemingly slightly damp skin significantly transforms the face, but for evening makeup this won't be enough.
Girls with dark skin and brown or brown-green eyes, the ideal tone can be complemented with lipstick in warm colors and smokey eyes in brown-gray tones. And don't forget about eyebrows! Otherwise, they will get lost against the background of bright eyes.
Snow whites with eyes of cold blue or gray It’s worth adding a little blush to the apples of your cheeks so that your face doesn’t look pale. We recommend textures with shimmer - they will look especially impressive. You can apply lipstick to your lips bright shade, and for eyelashes use well-pigmented mascara.
How to do wet face makeup for every day: photo
Best suited for daytime makeup thin arrows or just mascara. In this case, lipstick can be replaced with lip balm, gloss or lip oil. The main thing is that the product has a light glossy finish. Add light shadows to the inner corners of your eyes to make your eyes open.
A dewy effect can also be achieved on the eyelids. There are several ways to do this, which we talked about. Let's consider the most suitable one for creating a daytime look.
Apply primer to your eyelids and wait until it is absorbed.
Distribute the shadows with your fingertips - this is the base of the makeup, which will ensure durability. It's better to use products with shimmer, they will do wet effect more noticeable.
Apply balm, polish or lip gloss to your eyelids. Try not to get into the crease of the eyelid, otherwise the glitter may form a roller there, which will cause discomfort.
