I heard all the girlies are doing this muted brown makeup look, so I had to give it a try and show you exactly how I’m getting that minimal, “it girl” vibe without doing the most. I start with a base that makes everything sit pretty—using up my old Euphoria primer (because we’re finishing products in this house), then layering on the Merit Uniform tinted mineral sunscreen. It’s honestly such a perfect match for me in shade 28, and SPF 45 is pretty freaking good. I keep it clean with a little Urban Decay Stay Naked Quickie under the eyes, and I’m just happy to report we are over the hormonal acne, everyone. For the actual muted-brown moment, it’s all about soft dimension: a cool-tone contour (my ancient ColourPop one), subtle nose + lip contour, and then glow placed strategically with Giorgio Armani Luminous Silk highlighters—pink pearlescent on the bridge/tip/Cupid’s bow and a white pearlescent shade for inner corners and under-eyes. I use ColourPop blush (Mulan “Matchmaker”) and a nude palette to lightly contour the eyes, then tightline with the Jones Road pencil in brown and add a tiny wing to elongate. Finish with mascara (let it dry, then re-curl—key), and a sheer brown lip combo with Merit Tabac + Tabby for that effortless, muted brown finish.
