4 Ways to Get in on the Fake Freckle TrendFaux freckles are pretty much the cutest trend ever. Here's how to use makeup to create them |
Create a Natural Freckle Look With Eye Makeup Using eye makeup yields the most believable end result, says Hughes, but before you even get to the freckles, it's important to properly prep your complexion. "You want your skin to look glowy and fresh," she explains. "Freckles and matte skin don't go together."
Start by using a rich moisturizer to deeply hydrate the skin, followed by a little bit of a foundation with a luminous finish. "Cakey foundation plus drawn on-freckles isn't going to look right," cautions Hughes, who suggests stippling it on with a BeautyBlender or buffing it in with a flat brush to ensure lightweight, sheer coverage.
