Step 1: Brows and Skin Prep

Leah kicks off her makeup routine by filling in her brows naturally and using a brow gel to keep them lifted and in place. While the gel dries, she moves on to prepping her skin. She reaches for Glow Recipe Watermelon Pink Juice Oil-Free Moisturizer, which is a fan favorite for its hydrating properties and dewy finish. Leah emphasizes that good skin prep is key to ensuring that makeup applies smoothly and stays put throughout the day.

Step 2: Sculpting and Glow

Once her brows are set, Leah applies Refy Glow and Sculpt Face Serum Primer with Niacinamide, which gives her skin a subtle glow while providing a smooth base for makeup. To give her face a sculpted look, she uses MAKEUP BY MARIO SoftSculpt Transforming Skin Enhancer. This product helps Leah add dimension to her face while giving her a healthy, radiant glow.

Step 3: Foundation and Contour

For foundation, Leah warms the product on the back of her hand before applying it with a flat brush. She focuses mainly on areas with redness, ensuring an even and natural finish. To contour, she uses MAKEUP BY MARIO SoftSculpt Cream Contour & Bronzer Stick to define her nose and jawline, giving her face a more sculpted appearance. Leah then spot treats with a concealer to cover any blemishes or imperfections.

Step 4: Concealer and Setting

Next, Leah brightens her under-eyes with NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer. She applies it generously before setting her makeup with a setting spray to ensure everything stays in place. Leah swears by layering her blush products for a dewy, fresh finish. She starts with Glow Recipe Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dewy Flush – Brightening Serum Blush for a soft, natural flush. To build up the color, she goes in with HUDA Beauty Blush Filter Soft Glow Liquid Blush, followed by a touch of rhode pocket blush in toasted teddy on her cheeks, nose, and eyelids.

Step 5: Baking and Bronzing

For a flawless, long-lasting finish, Leah bakes with MAKEUP BY MARIO SurrealSkin Talc-Free Soft Blur Setting Powder and sets the sides of her nose with HUDA Beauty Easy Bake Blurring Loose Baking & Setting Powder. She then applies matte bronzer to her cheeks, blending upward to add lift to her face. For her nose contour, Leah uses a mix of pinkish blush tones, blending them seamlessly for a soft, natural contour.

Step 6: Eyes and Liner

To complete her eye look, Leah applies bronzer to her lids and crease for a natural, sun-kissed look. She then tightlines her eyes with brown liner and adds a winged liner for a smoky yet edgy effect. Leah is known for her messy, smudged-out wing, giving her makeup a more relaxed, lived-in feel. She finishes off her eyes with mascara to add volume and definition.

Step 7: Glowing Highlights and Lips

Leah adds a pop of radiance to the inner corners of her eyes using DIOR BACKSTAGE Glow Face Palette, mixing a few shades for a soft highlight. She then taps Saie Glowy Super Gel Lightweight Dewy Multipurpose Illuminator onto the high points of her face to enhance her natural glow. For her lips, Leah uses MAKE UP FOR EVER Artist Color Pencil Longwear Lip Liner in Limitless Brown to line her lips, finishing with a lighter shade in the center and some clear gloss to seal the look.

Step 8: The Final Step – Setting It All

To lock in her makeup, Leah spritzes her face with two different setting sprays—one lightweight and one heavy-duty—for an all-day, long-lasting finish. To set specific points on her face, she then takes her MAC Cosmetics Studio Fix Powder Plus Foundation powder to help mattify her T-Zone.
