Our Foolproof Guide To Glowy Make-Up

By now, you’ll know how impressed we are with the L'Oréal Paris Lumi Glotion. A hydrating illuminator that enhances your skin's natural radiance, it’s ideal for achieving the kind of dewy, glowing make-up that’s perfect for summer. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you get the look…

STEP 1: A GREAT BASE

The key to a natural looking base is creating the right balance between glow, coverage and hydration. To nail this, mix a little bit of L’Oréal’s Lumi Glotion into a light-to-medium coverage foundation. Not only will it give you that bronz-y, lit from within finish, it’ll also sheer out the pigment ever so slightly, while still blurring your complexion. Go in with a light hand here, then spot conceal under the eyes or cover any blemishes to perfect the look.

STEP 2: BLUSH & BRONZE

Next, contour your skin where the sun would naturally hit using a warm bronzer. Layer over a peachy blush and dust a little over the bridge of your nose and your lids too for a tonal, flushed finish. You can also layer over a little bit of the L’Oréal Lumi Glotion in shade 02 for a glossier look. 

STEP 3: BUSHY BROW & SLEEK LASHES

Keep the brows and lashes simple. We’d suggest using this brow gel and pencil to sketch out a strong shape and keep the hairs in place. Then, finish with some of the L’Oréal  Panorama mascara to give lashes extra volume. 

STEP 4: HIGHLIGHT

To get that ‘just-came-off-the-beach’ look, add a final bit of Glotion to the tops of your cheekbones, brow bone and cupid's bow. Tap this on using your fingers or a brush for a more intense finish. If you’re going for a more evening look, layer over a powder highlighter to really nail glass-like skin. 

STEP 5: SPRITZ & SHINE

To finish, spritz everything with a setting spray to bring the look together and set the make-up in place. It's ideal if you’re using a lot of cream and liquid products in order to keep glow-y products put so they so they don't slip off throughout the day. Complete the look with a glossy balm or lipstick.
