We’ve all been there: looking in the mirror, pining for a glowing, fresh-faced complexion that radiates youthfulness and vigor. Until recently, achieving such a look through makeup was next to impossible. Thankfully, glowing skin makeup tutorials have opened the door to achieving the perfect luminous complexion. In this tutorial, you’ll learn the secrets to achieving dewy skin for any occasion.
I. Preparing Your Skin for a Luminous Glow
Radiant, glowing, and luminous skin is always in. Having beautiful complexion is a confidence boost and a great way to get a close-to-effortless beauty look. Here are some tips to help you get a luminous glow and have your skin looking its best.
- Cleanse your face twice a day: Use a gentle cleanser that won’t strip away skin’s natural oils. This will keep your skin looking plump and glowing in the long run.
- Exfoliate twice a week: Gently exfoliating your skin removes dead skin cells and helps your skin absorb more moisture. Make sure to use a gentle facial scrub to get your skin glowing.
- Mask, mask, and mask: Get in the habit of using a hydrating mask once a week. A good mask will give you the boost of hydration your skin needs to keep it looking healthy and glowing.
And don’t forget to moisturize! Use a good quality moisturizer, such as one with Hyaluronic Acid, that helps to retain moisture. This is important to help keep your skin hydrated. You can also mix it with your favourite oil to give your skin an extra boost.
Don’t forget about eye cream! This is an important step in any beauty routine because it helps to get rid of wrinkles and keep your skin looking young. Use a light eye cream that is specifically formulated for the delicate skin around your eyes.
These steps will help you get your skin ready for a luminous glow. By following these tips, you’ll be sure to get a natural and beautiful radiance that will last.
II. Applying Makeup for Enhanced Radiance
Whether you’re a makeup lover or just like to dabble from time to time, enhancing your natural radiance is something we all strive for. Here are some tips to help you achieve that beautiful glowing skin:
- Moisturize: Start with a rich and nourishing moisturizer to keep your skin safe from foundation-induced dryness.
- prime: Use a minimal primer suitable for your skin type to create a perfect blank canvas.
- concealer: Apply a smaller touch of concealer over problem areas and pay attention when blending.
- Foundation: Creamy and dewy foundations are your best bet when looking for a luminous effect.
As far as the additional makeup products, bronzer, blush and highlighter can be used to create the desired effect in combination. Tapping and buffing the bronzer with a soft makeup brush all over the cheeks and temples is a great way to adding warmth. To achieve a luminous look, a creamy blush should be used in a sheer layer.
When it comes to highlighter, you should select one of your lighter shades and sweep it over the high points of the face such as cheekbone, nose bridge, Cupid’s bow and chin. For a more radiant effect, you can choose more shimmery highlighters.
Finish up the look with a generous dose of setting spray and you’re done! You’ll instantly notice the extra glow within few easy steps.
III. Setting and Locking in Dewy Complexion
Achieving a glowing complexion is something every beauty enthusiast dreams of. Here’s how to take your dewy skin to the next level.
1. Start with moisture
- Use a gentle cleanser that won’t strip your skin of its natural oils.
- Smooth a hydrating serum over your skin to lock in moisture.
- Apply a generous layer of moisturizer.
2. Strategically apply primer
Pick a primer with a light reflective finish and apply it to the areas where the light naturally hits your face: your forehead, nose, cheeks and chin. Avoid applying it to areas with large pores or wrinkles, as it can enhance the appearance of imperfections.
3. Layer on sheer foundation
Using a foundation brush, apply sheer foundation, one layer at a time, to the center of your face and gradually work your way out. Be sure to blend as you go to prevent any harsh lines.
4. Set with powder
- Contrary to popular belief, a dewy complexion still requires powder.
- Select an HD setting powder that won’t look cakey when it sets.
- Using a powder brush, brush onto the oily parts of your face, avoiding the areas where you applied primer.
By follow these simple steps, you’ll have your dewy look locked in and ready to go for the whole day—or night.
IV. Transforming into a Glowing God/dess
Believe it or not, becoming a glowing god or goddess is actually attainable. Not everyone who desires it will find success in their transformation, of course, but for those who are carefully and diligently working on inner development, there are a few powerful tools that can be used to help speed up the process.
It begins by developing a practice of self-awareness, and taking the time to nurture an awareness of one’s own spiritual energy. Next, is the practice of mindfulness – focusing on the present moment and the awareness of one’s own spiritual energy. Finally, there’s the practice of sacred ritual – bringing intention, attention and focus to each and every act, as a way of connecting more consciously to the spiritual realm. When these practices are combined with spiritual guidance and discipline, the transformation will begin to take shape.
- Meditate to cultivate self-awareness
- Focus on the present moment
- Bring intention, attention, and focus to the ritual
Using Visualizations for Enhanced Transformation
Visualization exercises can sharpen the awareness of the source of the spiritual energy. It is possible to figuratively represent the energy in the form of a light, a flame or a crystal. Imagine that these representations are connected to Higher Self or a higher spiritual power, such as a Divine Being. This connection will draw in the spiritual energy, taking it to a higher level.
The use of symbolic gestures and mantras can also help to cement visualizations in the mind. Making an offering to the Higher Self or Divinity can further strengthen the connection. This will result in the gradual transformation of the self into a glowing god or goddess.
