DUBAI: Celebrity makeup artist and Emmy winner Nicole Faulkner — better known as Lipstick Nick — knows that the secret to long-lasting glam starts before your foundation even hits your skin. She shared a simple routine to help your makeup stay fresh from morning to night with Arab News.
Long-wear makeup starts with skincare. Cleanse, moisturize and make sure your products have fully absorbed so your base goes on smoothly.
Apply a long-lasting primer like e.l.f.’s Power Grip Primer to create a secure layer between your skin and your makeup, she said.
Here is Lipstick Nick’s pro secret: before applying foundation, spray your face generously with e.l.f.’s Stay All Night Setting Mist. This creates an invisible hold that boosts staying power.
Give the setting mist 60 seconds to completely dry. Letting it set ensures the grip base activates properly.
