How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
Start with a hydrating primer and a light-coverage foundation, then set only the T-zone with powder to keep that satin-matte finish.
For the eyes, I use a fluffy brush to blend a mid-tone taupe through the crease, then deepen the outer corner with charcoal.
And finish with a smudged liner along the lash line.
Keep the cheeks minimal a soft rose blush and a subtle contour.
So the eyes stay the focus.
Finish with a few coats of volumizing mascara and a nude gloss, then set everything with a long-wear setting spray.
