Known for their intensive skincare regimens, glowing skin is incorporated into a range of makeup looks. Dewy foundation often containing SPF is applied on moisturized skin to provide coverage as well as sun protection for paler skin. Lip tint is applied on the lips with a stylistic gradient, the darkest shade in the center. This gives the illusion of smaller lips to enhance other features on the face.
