How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
I start by prepping the skin with a hydrating primer, then I apply a light layer of satin foundation with a damp sponge, building only where needed.
I set the under-eye and smile lines with a tiny bit of powder.
But leave the cheeks and forehead bare so the glow shows through.
For the eyes, I use a soft taupe in the crease, a champagne shimmer on the lid.
And a thin line of brown gel liner that I smudge slightly for that dreamy, Parisian vibe.
Finish with a curled lash and two coats of volumizing mascara.
Then blot your lips and apply a rose balm stain.
