Frecklier Than Ever: My Everyday Makeup Routine ๐โจ
Hey Babes!
Lately, I’ve been embracing my skin more than ever and honestly, I’m naturally frecklier than ever, and loving it. For years, I used to reach for heavy coverage foundation thinking I needed to “perfect” my skin. But now? At 30, I’ve finally fallen in love with the features I once tried to hide. It took me a while (okay, 26 years ๐ ), but these days, I’m frecklier than ever and absolutely here for it. My daily makeup is all about celebrating what’s naturally mine which is glowy skin, soft details, and a bold lip to tie it all together.
Whether I’m wandering through the streets of Madrid, grabbing coffee with friends, a night out with the girls, or a date night, this is my go-to look. It’s simple, wearable, and lets my freckles steal the show. Let’s get into the products that make the magic happen from skincare prep all the way to the final touches. ๐
โจ The Look: Freckle-Forward, Glowy, and Just the Right Amount of Bold
I’m obsessed with this combo, lightweight coverage that enhances, not hides. Glowy finish? Check. Pop of color? Double check. My freckles? Loud and proud. Here’s the breakdown:
๐งด Skin: The Freckle-Enhancing Glow
I avoid heavy foundations and go for light, buildable coverage that lets them shine through.
Skin Prep: Hydration is Everything
- Moisturizer: Belif The True Cream Aqua Bomb – a burst of hydration that plumps and preps perfectly. My holy grail!!
- Eye Cream: Belif Aqua Bomb Depuffing Eye Gel – brightens, hydrates and smooths my under-eye area for a flawless base.
- Primer: e.l.f Power Grip Primer – helps my makeup grip without hiding texture.
๐ซ Base: Radiant, Lightweight, and Glowy
This combo is my secret to that glowy skin from within look:
- Flawless Filter (Primer/Base): Charlotte Tilbury Hollywood Flawless Filter (Shade 3) – gives that radiant glow before anything else goes on.
- Bronzing Base: Saie Glowy Super Gel in “Sunglow” – adds warmth and makes my skin look sun-kissed before foundation.
- Foundation: Fenty Beauty Pro Filter Hydrating Foundation – offers natural coverage while still letting my freckles peek through.
- Concelear: Charlotte Tilbury Beautiful Skin Radiant Concealer (Shade 3) – brightens where I need it without looking cakey.
- Blush: Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk – gives that flushed, fresh natural look.
- Highlighter: Charlotte Tilbury Beauty Light Wand (Pillow Talk) – liquid gold glow.
- Powder Bronzer: Nars Bronzer Powder (Laguna 03) – soft warmth and subtle sculpting.
๐๏ธ Eyes & Brows: Soft, Defined, and Simple
I keep things understated but polished. Just enough to frame the face without overpowering it.
- Brow Pen: Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Pen (Medium Brown) – featherlight and helps me create fluffy, defined brows.
- Eyeshadow: Anastasia Beverly Hills Soft Glam Palette Vault – perfect everyday shades that blend beautifully.
- Mascara: Lancome Hypnose Drama Mascara – long lashes without clumps or smudging.
๐ Lips: That Bold Red Berry Moment
If there’s one thing that elevates this natural skin look, it’s a bold lip.
- Lip Liner: Huda Beauty Lip Contour Matte Lip Pencil (Terracotta)
- Lipstick: A mix of Charlotte Tilbury Pillow Talk (Medium) and Nars Explicit Lipstick (Unauthorized – 863)
- Lip oil: NYX Fat Oil Lip Drip Vegan Lip Oil (Splash of Cream)
โ๏ธ FInal Touches
- Setting Spray: I rotate between Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Setting Spray for a soft matte hold and Anastasia Beverly Hills Blurring Matte Setting Spray for that juicy glowy finish.
So, Why “Frecklier Than Ever”?
Because this version of me feels more confident than ever. I’m not hiding anything; not my texture, not my freckles, not my personality. This look is about owning what’s already there and adding just a little extra glow, worth, and pop.
If you’ve been wanting to go lighter with your base, or feel your freckles deserve their moment, this is your sign. Try it out, tag me, and don’t be afraid to go frecklier than ever. ๐
Love, Dee
