Hydrated, healthy skin is the key to a beautiful glow, so after moisturizing, apply a thin layer of the primer, starting at the center of your face and moving outward. Apply your foundation if desired, or go for a more natural, bare-faced look.

(You’ll also be adding a little bit of shimmer in the next step.) Then, swipe on a couple of coats of a lengthening mascara to add glam without overpowering your total look.
