How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
Start with a hydrating primer and a light-coverage foundation—pearl dresses love skin that looks like skin.
I always use a damp sponge to press in a liquid highlighter on the high points of the face before setting with a translucent powder only where needed.
For eyes, I keep it romantic: a wash of champagne on the lid, a soft brown in the crease.
And a thin line of brown gel liner.
Finish with two coats of volumizing mascara and a nude-pink lip balm.
It’s the kind of effortless glam that holds up through tears and toasts.
