Day makeup: the secret of a natural and professional look

In a world where make-up is increasingly becoming a tool of personal expression and self-confidence, daytime make-up occupies a special place.

It must be subtle enough to accentuate natural beauty, yet distinct enough to highlight facial features. This article aims to guide you step-by-step in performing a professional day make-up right at home and show you how you can benefit from the services of a specialist at Lucicosm Beauty Studio.

Features of daytime makeup

Day makeup is distinguished by its naturalness and subtlety. It is important that it is done in such a way that it looks as little “done” as possible, while maintaining a fresh and bright appearance. Among the main features of daytime makeup are:

Skin: The basis of a successful daytime makeup is a skin that looks healthy and natural. Using a hydrating base and a light foundation that perfectly matches your skin tone is essential. It is important to avoid heavy foundations or excessive coverage.

Eyes: Eye make-up should be discreet, with neutral and bright shades. Mascara can be used to define the lashes, but without weighing them down too much.

Lips: For the lips, we recommend lipsticks in natural shades or discreet glosses that add extra shine and volume.

Blush and Highlighter: A blush in a warm shade, applied sparingly, can add a healthy, rested look. The highlighter, used strategically on the high points of the face, will add brightness and highlight the features.

How to do a professional daytime makeup at home

To achieve a day makeup at home that approaches the quality of a professional, follow these steps:

Skin preparation: Start with a thorough cleansing of the skin, followed by the application of a moisturizing cream. This will ensure an even makeup application.

Foundation: Choose a foundation with medium to low coverage that perfectly matches your skin tone. Apply with a makeup brush or sponge for a natural finish.

Concealer: Apply concealer only where needed – under the eyes, on redness or blemishes.

Powder: Set foundation and concealer with a translucent powder, applied lightly with a large brush.

Eye makeup: Use eyeshadows in neutral and natural shades. Apply a thin layer of mascara to define lashes.

Lips and blush: Choose a lipstick or gloss in natural shades. Apply a light blush for a healthy look.

Highlighter: Apply highlighter to cheekbones, cupid’s bow and bridge of nose for a luminous effect.

Day makeup: essential products

Foundation: Choose a foundation that suits your skin type. It helps to even out the texture of the skin and prolong the life of the make-up.

Foundation: Choose a foundation that provides natural coverage and matches your skin tone. For oily skin, choose mattifying formulas; for dry skin, moisturizing formula.

Concealer: A good quality concealer can hide dark circles and imperfections. Choose a shade that matches your foundation.

Powder: A translucent powder can set makeup and reduce shine without adding weight.

Eyeshadow: The eyeshadow palette should include neutral and natural shades that can be mixed to create an understated daytime look.

Mascara and eyeliner: Mascara should define and lengthen lashes, and subtle eyeliner can accentuate the shape of your eyes.

Lipstick and gloss: Choose natural shades and comfortable textures that do not dry out the lips.

Tips for different skin types

To achieve a perfect daytime makeup, it is essential to understand the specific needs of your skin type:

Oily skin: Use a mattifying base and an oil-free foundation. Avoid products that are too shiny and opt for translucent powders to control shine.

Dry skin: Hydration is key. Use a hydrating base and creamy foundation to avoid looking dry and flaky.

Combination skin: Combine different products for dry and oily areas of the face. For example, use a mattifying foundation in the T-zone and a moisturizing one on the rest of the face.

Sensitive skin: Choose hypoallergenic and non-comedogenic products to avoid skin irritation and redness.
