Let's Get Baked!

It seems as though everyone is catching on to the trend of contouring and highlighting, but lately the new trend is "baking" or "cooking" your face. This term actually comes from the drag community, and they have been using it for years. This method is used when you apply translucent powder onto your face and let it sit for about five to seven minutes before brushing it away. This allows the makeup to have a flawless, creaseless look to it.

1. Hydrate - I always hydrate my face before I do this process. I mainly put a bigger focus on hydrating my under eyes to make them look more awake.
2. Concealer - Apply concealer to your under eye to the apples of your cheeks, and wherever else you want to apply.
3. Translucent Powder - I use a damp beauty blender to apply my powder. I find that this trick collects more powder to apply to your face. When actually applying the powder I place it on my under eye, on my jaw line, and the center of my chin. I then allow it to sit for 5-7 minutes, and then brush it away with a fluffy brush. I tend to use an  E.L.F. blush brush.

Have fun baking!
