Okay, guys, so I saw this “orgasm makeup” trend going around, and, well, I just had to try it. You know me, always up for a beauty experiment! Here’s how it went down:
The Prep Work
First things first, I started with my usual skincare routine. You gotta have a good base, right? Cleanser, toner, serum, moisturizer – the whole shebang. I even popped on a hydrating sheet mask for like 20 minutes, because apparently, dewy skin is key to this look. I wanted my skin to be, like, glowing from within.
The Base
Next, I grabbed a light-coverage foundation. Nothing too heavy, I needed that natural skin to peek through. I dabbed it on with a damp beauty sponge, just to even things out a bit. Then I went in with a creamy concealer, just under my eyes and on any little blemishes that were bothering me. I made sure to blend, blend, blend! No harsh lines here.
The Flush
Okay, this is where it gets interesting. The blush is everything in this look. I chose a peachy-pink cream blush – I figured it would look the most natural. I smiled like a goofball to find the apples of my cheeks, and then I applied the blush… generously. Like, more than I usually would. I blended it upwards and outwards, towards my temples, to kind of mimic that post-… well, you know… flush.
- I used my fingers to really melt the blush into my skin.
- I even added a tiny bit to the bridge of my nose and my chin, just for that extra “sun-kissed” vibe.
The Glow
Highlighter time! I picked a liquid highlighter with a subtle, champagne shimmer. I dotted it along my cheekbones, down the bridge of my nose, on my cupid’s bow, and a little on my brow bone. Again, I blended it out with my fingers – I wanted that “lit-from-within” glow, not like I’d just bathed in glitter.
The Eyes
I kept the eyes super simple. I curled my lashes and applied a couple of coats of brown mascara – I didn’t want anything too dramatic. I skipped eyeshadow altogether, but you could totally add a wash of a shimmery, peachy shade if you wanted to.
The Lips
For the lips, I went for a “my lips but better” shade. I used a tinted lip balm that’s a rosy-nude color. I wanted my lips to look soft and kissable (obviously!). I blotted it a bit with a tissue to make it look even more natural.
The Final Touches
I sprizted my face with a setting spray to keep everything in place and add to that dewy finish. I fluffed up my eyebrows a bit with a clear brow gel, and that was it!
Honestly, I was pretty surprised by how much I liked this look! It’s definitely more blush-heavy than I’m used to, but it does give you that healthy, radiant glow. It’s like, “I just had the best time of my life” kind of look, without actually, you know… having the best time of your life. 😉
