How I Recreate It in Under 15 Minutes
Start with a hydrating primer, then a light-coverage foundation to keep that skin-like glow.
I like to use a damp sponge to press in a cream bronzer on the cheeks and temples.
It melts into the skin and photographs beautifully with the yellow.
For the eyes, a wash of warm champagne on the lid, a soft brown in the crease, and a thin wing liner.
Finish with a lash that’s fluttery but not heavy, and a peach gloss.
The back is the focal point, so keep the hair sleek.
A low bun or ponytail shows off those crisscross straps perfectly.
