The Steps To ‘Cloud Skin’ Heaven
A trend that not only transforms your skin into a real life instagram filter, but looks amazing in person!
Dominic Skinner, M.A.C. Cosmetics’ Global Senior Artist, has provided 3 main steps on how to achieve the Cloud Skin look.
Hydrate
He says the best place to start is by hydrating the skin ‘with a pearlescent finish, moisturizer or serum’. Complete this step with a primer, this way your skin will glow and won’t look like the bottom of your Saturday night pizza.
Allow yourself time for the products to ‘sink in’, this will create a smoother base for your foundation.
Foundation
Place dots sparingly around your face and softly blend out, helping create an even skin texture - ‘Dominic recommends a velvet soft, matte foundation’.
Once blended, use a ‘fluffy translucent powder’ and apply to the center of your forehead, across your hairline, under your jaw and in the ‘inner corners of your eyes’.
Highlighter
Dominic recommends the RMS Beauty’s Champagne Rose Luminizer as it leaves your skin with a ‘natural looking glow’. For application, blend the product on the higher part of your ‘cheekbones and cupids bow’. If you are feeling a bit more colorful, finish your look with a touch of blush!
