How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes

Start with a matte primer on your legs and feet.

Trust me, it keeps heels from slipping and gives a smooth finish.

Then, apply a transfer-resistant lipstick in a matching red if you’re feeling bold.

But I’d suggest a sheer balm to keep the focus on the shoes.

For the face, keep it fresh: a light foundation, a touch of bronzer, and one coat of mascara.

The red is your statement, so everything else stays clean and minimal—just like Ashley’s vibe.
