A makeup technique that makes the complexion bright and natural is very popular on TikTok. This method, used by professional “old school” makeup artists for many years, is making a comeback.
Videos circulating on social media, accumulating millions of views, praise the underlining of makeup. As the name suggests, and meaning “primer,” this almost miraculous trick involves slapping multiple makeup products onto your face before applying the final touch, which is foundation.
As American makeup artist Katie Jane Hughes points out on her TikTok account, reversing the traditional order of applying beauty products is absolutely necessary.
If you want to complement makeup, you need to start applying bronzer, blush, concealer, and highlighter. After you have blended these products individually with a brush or sponge, all you have to do is spread a thin layer of foundation over them. So simple, but so effective, according to the followers.
We are promised a very natural rendering and a texture similar to our skin. Note that it’s also a great option for beginners who want to shape their face, since you don’t have to draw perfectly symmetrical lines and spend long minutes blending everything, as is preferred in classic contouring.
Covering your perfectly powdered face in a layer of foundation gives you a more even finish and lightly pigmented colour.
