Anyone else's skin going through it during this quarantine? We've been touching our face more than usual, so applying some kind of spot treatment prior to any makeup application is key.
Currently, we're reaching for Dr. Barbara Sturm's brand-new spot treatment, which is made with tea tree oil and zinc oxide to attack impurities, as well as vitamin B3 to support skin renewal. Bonus: It comes in an untinted and tinted version.
We're not going to say that you need a full coverage foundation right now. Instead, try something on the sheer side that still blurs imperfections. Kevyn Aucoin's just launched skin tint is our pick. It's packed with skin care ingredients like hydrating hyaluronic acid and butterfly bush flower extract to help protect against those free radicals caused by the blue light of your computer screen and phone.
Normally we're big on bronzer... but a contoured face just seems a little extreme for a 20-minute conference call from your living room. Instead, we're amping up the blush, which pops on screen. This delicious cherry blossom hue works triple time, not only on the apples of your cheeks, but also as a lip tint and eye color.
Showing up with groomed brows is the least you can do, in our opinion. Most of us feel better when our brows look good, but you can also use this time to let yours breathe and grow a little. Groom what you've got with a tinted brow gel for an instant fix. This one from Eyeko has been a consistent grab-and-go favorite of ours for years.
We cannot stress enough that now is not the time for an intricate eye look. Enter: this dreamy liquid shadow from Laura Mercier. The name, Moonlight Shimmer, says it all. Seriously, one sweep across your lid (you can even do without looking in the mirror) and you'll feel instantly pulled together.
