Guide to a glowy, smooth makeup base

Guide to a glowy, smooth makeup base

Textured makeup base? Pores peeking through your foundation? Don’t worry, it’s completely normal. Realistically there is no such thing as a flawless base. That’s what real makeup looks like. In fact, it may even be what good, sometimes professionally done makeup looks like up close. 


But what makes a good makeup look even better? A solid, hydrating skincare, base routine. Not only does it ensure the skin is nourished and healthy before layering on makeup products that may contain harsh chemicals, but it also allows makeup to melt into your skin making application much easier. 


Here are a list of some products here to help your makeup base glide on and to avoid looking cakey: 

  1. Idyllic Fields 

A good base starts with a good moisturiser. Especially if you have dry skin, skipping moisturiser can be what is causing your makeup to look cakey. A lightweight, 75% oats infused day time moisturiser, Idyllic Fields is just what you need to strike that balance of having hydrated skin, without being greasy and heavy. Apply a layer as a base or pump out your moisturiser and mix it with your foundation for a skincare-makeup smoothie that melts into your skin, giving you that glow. 


  1. Morning Glow sunscreen

By now, you’d have probably heard about how much UV Rays can harm your skin’s appearance and health. A good sunscreen prevents wrinkles, fine lines, hyperpigmentation and even skin cancer in the long run. We recommend our best-seller, our SPF 50 Morning Glow sunscreen infused with niacinamide, avocado and acai extracts to not only protect and hydrate, but also act as a primer for your foundation to grip onto as well as an extra hydration and glow boost. 


  1. Dew Potion

A toner, a facial mist, a setting spray, dew potion is THE multifunctional product to set, prime, and tone. We used 100% extracts in this formula, with 55% being Chamomile Flower extracts, to give your skin the treatment it needs. Whether it’s soothing your skin when used throughout the day, protecting your skin from environmental stressors, or as a hydrating mist to use on top of your makeup to achieve that glowy, skin-like finish, dew potion is a bridge between skincare and makeup to give you a two-in-one experience in a bottle.
