A seamless, glowing look begins with your skin, not your foundation. Learn the professional techniques to prep, match, and set your makeup for a long-lasting, skin-like finish.

The foundation of all my makeup looks is proper skin preparation. Here you can see how I use a hydrating sheet mask to ensure the skin is plump and ready, which allows the base makeup to blend seamlessly for a natural finish.

For my Christian brides, a luminous, flawless base is everything. I teach how to build coverage strategically so the skin glows from within, creating a timeless and elegant look that feels light and comfortable.

We cover how to use products like the NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer effectively. You'll learn the right way to cover dark circles and blemishes without the product creasing or looking heavy.

Setting your makeup is a crucial step for longevity. I demonstrate how to use a loose setting powder, like this one from Huda Beauty, to bake and set concealer for a smooth, airbrushed look that blurs pores.

Choosing the right setting spray is a game-changer. I explain why the Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray is a staple in my kit for locking in makeup for a fresh, no-melt finish from morning to night.

One of the most common questions I get is about color. I teach my students the art of custom mixing foundations, blushes, and lip colors on a palette to create the perfect, unique shade for any skin tone.

About Core Skills: The Flawless Base

Many of my students come to me frustrated with foundation that separates or creases by the afternoon. The fix is not buying more expensive products, but understanding your skin's specific needs—like whether your under-eye area needs a hydrating concealer or a color corrector. I show you how to map these products on your own face, ensuring you walk away with a routine that actually lasts all day.
