If you go through your Instagram feed for hours on end, it will be almost hard to find someone who is not actively attempting to achieve glowing, lit-from-within skin. Do not misunderstand us: matte makeup with face primer will always have its day, but dazzlingly radiant makeup is now all the rage and shows no indication of going out of style any time soon. Even if getting 8 hours of "beauty sleep," really drinking 8 hours' worth of water, and using highlighter makeup (a lot of it) might be somewhat to blame, the credit should really go to the makeup. It did the rest of the work. 

So, what exactly does it mean to have a glossy makeup look? 

The latest trend in makeup is to have brushed-up brows, moist eyes, and glossy lips. It's the type of appearance that makes a big impression yet requires very little work on your part. It is more about adding touches of the brightness all over the face after applying the face primer, including the skin, lips, and eyes, in a laid-back manner that has a sensual and modern vibe to it. 

Below are tips you can use to ace the glossy look: 

Step 1: Create the base 

This is the ultimate trick to having genuinely lit-from-within skin without actually having to drink eight glasses of water every day to do it. We are all aware that to get completely perfect highlighter makeup, one must begin with the base. Therefore, let us start applying our makeup by combining our Forever52 priming moisturizer and contour. If you use this method, before you even begin applying your makeup, your skin will already have a natural finish that will make it seem radiant. 

Step 2: Put foundation 

After you have finished perfecting the base, the next step is to add a thin layer of foundation on top of it. Our Forever 52 foundation has a feather-light texture and provides faultless medium to high coverage. This foundation was made using a serum. You may get a gorgeous shine by thoroughly blending everything with a beauty blender or a brush of your choice. 

Step 3: Keep an eye out for that glow 

Along with colorful eyeliner and metallic eye makeup, glitter eyeshadow is another trend that has been rapidly gaining popularity in recent years. This dazzling, glossy appearance is a favorite among models and celebrities alike, and the good news is that it is not difficult to achieve at all. Apply a very thin application of our Forever 52 products onto your eyelids after you have primed them, and then blend the gloss in well. You have successfully achieved the appearance of wet glitter eyeshadow with only one swipe of gloss. Applying a thick layer of our mascara as the last step in the eye makeup routine will complete the look. 

Step 4:  Apply some bronzer 

Yes, we did say glossy, but adding a touch of couture never hurts anybody. Even though most of us probably ignore contouring, doing so might really be considered a beginner's error. Adding definition to your face with contouring also highlights the high points of your features. For a natural-looking contour, choose the perfect shade from our contour color palette that is closest to your natural skin tone. 

Step 5: Apply the gloss 

The enjoyable part comes afterwards. Putting a gloss on your lips after the lip primer is the secret to appearing completely revitalized and radiantly radiant all at the same time. The last and most important step in achieving a glossy makeup look is to add a new flush of color to your lips with a lip primer and then top them off with a glossy sheen. The shades from our Forever52 collection may become your new favorite. 

Now that we've let the cat out of the bag regarding how to pull off that shiny appearance, we are certain that you are prepared to be dazzling and draw attention. For more information, contact Daily Life Forever52 today!
