10 Steps to light, natural make-up this summer

While much of the world has returned to maskless interaction, Hongkongers continue to tuck our mugs securely beneath the protection of masks. While inarguably necessary at this crucial time, masks wreak havoc on a beautifully made-up face. Patchy foundation, smudged lipstick, streaked mascara and smeared blush – and inevitably a stained mask – are revealed every time you peel off your face covering ahead of lunch or a Zoom call.
The mask factor coupled with rising temperatures call for makeup that stays in place, so look for products that won’t blotch, rub or melt into a horrendous disaster no matter the sweat, tears or face-mask friction. Here, we’ve curated a set of top smudge-proof cosmetics that will save your face and leave you with a fresh glow.
Foundation

Starting on a clean, primed face, apply Charlotte Tilbury’s Airbrush Flawless Longwear Foundation. The British makeup brand formulates its foundation with exclusive ingredients including Replexium – a fusion of two patented peptides – MossCellTec (derived from moss) and AirCool (menthol), which work to even skin tone, reduce the appearance of pores and fine lines, and hydrate the epidermis for a refreshing start to your morning routine.
The coverage feels weightless, has all-day staying power and boasts up to 24 hours of moisturising benefits. This sweat-, water- and smudge-proof liquid foundation arrives in 44 shades for a flawless airbrush finish.

To cover any imperfections that might hint at flared pores, sleepless nights or signs of ageing, vegan and cruelty-free beauty brand Hourglass proffers the Vanish Airbrush Concealer. Doing just as it says, this liquid concealer makes those unwanted features disappear. Its formula contains innovative microspherical powders, and its lightweight application feels as satisfying as its outcome.
Use a brush, sponge or fingertip to dab on a minimal amount on the targeted area; a little product goes a long way, ensuring buildable coverage, crease-resistant finish and blurring of dark circles and blemishes for up to 16 hours.
Blush

Next, add a modest, natural flush with the help of Watercolour Liquid Cheek Colour by acclaimed UK makeup artist Daniel Sandler. In a range of neutral, pink and orange shades, the oil-free, silicone-based tint of this waterproof blush builds upon each swipe while remaining resistant to smearing. Its liquid form feels comfortable and familiar when applied to the skin, and it imparts a youthful luminosity to your cheeks that lasts throughout the day.

There is nothing that calls attention to one’s emotions and demeanour quite like perfectly applied eye makeup. The eyes are indeed the focal points of your whole look in these times of constant mask wearing.

First up, invest in a new must-have for the lids from Supergoop!. Known for its SPF-rich sun-care products, the Texas-based brand delivers the first eyeshadow with SPF 30.&nbsp;Shielding the eyelids from harmful UV rays, Shimmershade SPF 30 comes in four glowing hues of increasing intensity, from First Light to Sunset.
Now that most of our face lies hidden behind a mask and out of sight from the sun, this long-wearing creamy shadow provides overdue safeguarding for our eyes. A hybrid mix of mineral and clean chemical active ingredients keeps the peepers protected as well as pretty. Blending is seamless and there’s no creasing, flaking or fading; just swipe with a finger across the lids and pat to set.

For added definition, take American cosmetic brand Urban Decay’s Perversion Waterproof Fine-Point Eye Pen and trace the lids with a feminine thin line, seductive cat’s eye or edgy open-wing style. Featuring a flexible brush tip for those tricky, ultra-fine flicks, the formula ensures a quick-dry, waterproof and sweat-proof application so you can go from morning in the office to virtual meetings in the afternoon to an evening tête-à-tête with no touch-up required.

To round off the eyes with dramatic effect, we recommend French luxury house Givenchy’s Noir Couture Waterproof Mascara, a nifty four-action product that adds volume to, curls, strengthens and lengthens lashes. With the brand’s exclusive Lash Booster Expert Complex, the mascara secures a smudge-free, long-lasting flutter that is not only waterproof but also nourishing, fortifying and protective of those precious little hairs. Brush from base to tip in a single stroke for overall lushness.

To make sure the products you have applied stay in place, use a vegan-formula setting spray by the vibrantly youthful NYX Professional Makeup. The Dewy Finish Setting Spray is a good choice that won’t let your makeup run down – there will be no fading, melting, smudging or sweating away, thanks to its light, fresh, all-day glowing and hydrating formula.
Lipstick

Finally, finish with a lipstick that puts a confident smile on the face. Huda Beauty’s Liquid Matte Ultra-Comfort Transfer-Proof Lipstick offers 16 vegan-friendly matte colours that suit any skin tone and outfit. The comfortably light liquid formula boasts the cult brand’s Lip L.O.V.E nutrient- and fatty acid-rich complex that treats the lips with moisturising benefits, as well as protecting them with the effects of antioxidants.

Start with a clean, clear canvas courtesy of French luxury house Givenchy’s colour-correcting Prisme Primer. Settling gently on the skin with a smooth matte finish, it evens out the complexion while fortifying the dermis with SPF 20 and a vitamin- and anti-oxidant-rich formula.&nbsp;

Next, blend in Studio Skin 15 Hour Wear Hydrating Foundation by Smashbox. The film set-inspired brand based in Culver City, California is known for primers and foundations that give skin an almost airbrush effect. This liquid formula delivers a lightweight, medium-to-full, buildable coverage that is sweat-resistant and stays put under the heat of the party lights.

For a flawless surface to welcome the colours to come, what better name to help you glam up than makeup artist Natasha Moor? Simply apply her Secret Perfector Concealer on any blemish or visible imperfection. Gliding on this medium-to-full coverage stick concealer is as smooth as butter, thanks to a curved point design that gives you total flexibility and control during application.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Follow this with Contour Sculpting Powder from the bag of another star makeup artist, Natasha Denona. It’s just the ticket to give your complexion that natural, softly contoured look. Apply the powder lightly in the hollows of the cheeks, on and under the jaw line, and on the temples. It adds depth and subtly defines the cheekbones for an overall slimming effect.

Highlight your features with a bright, dewy glow. Placing the attention to the T-zone: forehead, cheekbones, inner eye area, bridge of the nose, chin and cupid’s bow all deserve to be emphasised. Make them prominent with tri-colour palette Le Cushion Encre De Peau Luminous Highlighter by French luxury brand YSL Beauté.

Now it’s time to set and press. To make sure everything stays in place, spritz your face with Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Dewy Set Setting Spray before pressing on Ultimate Setting Powder from makeup guru Patrick Starrr’s One/Size beauty line. These tip-top setting products impart a smoother, more natural and longer-lasting finish, especially on oily skin since they soak up excess sebum.&nbsp;

Moving on to the eyes, the eyebrows need your attention first. French luxury goods conglomerate Louis Vuitton puts out a game-changing, multi-functional product through one of the beauty brands in its armoury, Make Up For Ever. Pro Sculpting Brow is a three-in-one tool built with a slanted-edge pencil tip, brush and sponge tip. It sculpts the brows and thus transforms the face in three easy steps: define, contour and highlight.&nbsp;

Next up are the eyelids, and this is where the true fun begins; treat the lids to the plant-based&nbsp;Blooming Edition Garden of Light Palette by vegan beauty brand Dear Dahlia. Boasting skin-loving ingredients and flower extracts in the form of nine buildable, non-creasing, neutral, sun-kissed tones, its velvety mattes, silky-smooth shimmers and high-sparkle glitters offer effortless yet glamo day-to-night glam.&nbsp;

To define the eyes, dress the lash line with Selena Gomez’s Rare Beauty standout, Perfect Strokes Matte Liquid Liner. Waterproof, smudge-proof and long-lasting, this liner is formulated with ultra-black pigments designed to accentuate the eyes. Due to a built-in, flexible brush tip of some 1,000 vegan bristles, wearers can easily create thin or thick lines with seamless precision and control, whether they are going for a subtle wing or a sharp cat’s eye.

Adding bold drama to the overall look, you cannot go glam without mascara. New York-based cosmetics company Tarte’s gluten-free Lights, Camera, Lashes 4-in-1 Mascara not only adds definition, but curls as it strokes on for an eye-popping appeal. The mineral- and vitamin-rich formula also keeps lashes perky and fluttering throughout the night.

Before looking to the lips, spray on Anastasia Beverly Hills’ Dewy Set Setting Spray once more to ensure everything stays in place. Then, finish with a layer (or two) of Gucci Beauty’s Rouge de Beauté Brilliant lipstick. Imparting instant radiance to the face, the lip tint is available in three new shades (in a range of 18) – 308 Lucy Dark Orange, 508 Diana Amber and 517 Abbie Maroon Red. These also provide a nourishing, moisturising and longwearing effect.&nbsp;All done? Finish your routine and you can start making your best impression during the forthcoming holiday hurrah.

When Helena Rubenstein invented the first waterproof mascara in 1939, it marked a new chapter in women’s makeup routines. Strategically launched at the Acquade Show, a famous aquatic dance performance in New York, the mascara opened women’s eyes to the power of their own beauty.
There has been no looking back since then. Several decades later, Helena Rubenstein Research continues to follow the path of its eponymous founder through its series of innovations.
To commemorate the brand’s rich heritage, Helena Rubenstein has just launched its first hybrid mascara, the Lash CC Carbon Care. Bringing together the complementary properties of skincare and make-up, it nurtures our lashes while making giving them a voluminous, refined expression.
Unlike regular mascara that stiffens our eyelashes and gives them a slightly ‘fake’ look, Helena Rubenstein’s 750-bristle mascara (versus the standard 350-bristle ones) claims to give the lashes a feather-soft appeal.
Priced at HK$ 330 for a 7.3ml tube, you can lay your hands on Lash CC Carbon Care at most of Helena Rubenstein’s counters across select malls in Hong Kong, including Harvey Nichols, SOGO and Lane Crawford.
