Cloud Skin is a beauty trend that focuses on light and luminous skin. It combines proper, moisturizing skincare with delicate makeup. Learn how to apply cosmetics to achieve a cloud-like makeup effect.
Makeup Trend: What is Cloud Skin?
For many, radiant, soft skin is the foundation of their makeup routine. Some of us finish our makeup routines with it. Others build theirs on a foundation of smooth skin. The sky actually inspired Cloud Skin. Imagine a spring sun, its rays shining through the clouds. The light is delicate, as if softened. It's the same with Cloud Skin – instead of an intense glow, we have a more subtle version of illumination.
How to get the Cloud Skin makeup effect?
The key to success is this: apply skincare and makeup in layers, but be careful not to overdo it. The effect should look natural, as if no glow-enhancing products were used. The texture of the cosmetics and the order in which they are applied are crucial.
Cloud Skin, Step I: Care
Prepare your skin: cleanse, tone, apply a moisturizing serum, and apply SOFT CREAM . For extra hydration, add a drop of STAY ESSENTIAL oil to the cream.
Cloud Skin, Step II: Foundation and Powder
Choose a foundation with an illuminating formula : it will give your complexion a slightly luminous finish. Then, create a light mist with PRETTY GLOW Illuminating Powder . Apply the powder to your cheeks, upper forehead, nose, and chin.
Cloud Skin, Step III: Highlighter
Highlighter is optional. If you can't skip this step, apply a touch of ROYAL GLOW highlighter or PEACH GLOW illuminating blush to the tops of your cheekbones, lips, nose, and Cupid's bow. For a slightly diffused effect, use a bunny-tail highlighter brush to apply.
Cloud Skin, Step IV: Finishing the Makeup
Cloud Skin is all about delicate, soft transitions between the textures of the cosmetics you apply. So, blend all layers with a foundation brush to achieve the most natural, blendable effect possible.
