This week, our February 2018 #CalyxtaGirl keeps things sweet and simple by matching a naturally flushed look with a pretty highlighter, and subtle coral lips!

Learn how to get the basics of this look by going through these quick and easy steps using cruelty-free favorites:

1) Work on that flawless base by starting out with a primer that is best suited for your skin type. If you’re more on the oily side, get a mattifying primer to keep you shine-free all day just like the ELLANA BLUR MAKEUP PRIMER, P599.

2) For a full-coverage, natural-looking matte foundation, PINK SUGAR OUR LIL’ SECRET FOUNDATION, P399, is the key! Apply with a damp beauty sponge to blend it out evenly.

3) If you find yourself wanting or needing more coverage on your undereye area, try the MILANI RETOUCH + ERASE LIGHT-LIFTING CONCEALER, P600, to conceal dark circles, spots, and other blemishes. Plus, it gives your face that extra brightening effect!

4) Prevent makeup from moving, melting, or creasing by making sure to set it properly with a loose powder. Try the GLOSSIER WOWDER, P1,650, which is a non-dewy loose powder that sets makeup for longer wear.

5) Achieve that naturally flushed look with the MILANI ROSE POWDER BLUSH, P500, for a radiant blush with a flattering matte finish. Lightly apply to cheeks, forehead, chin, and nose, and blend well for a soft glow!

6) Work your way into getting Carla’s highlighter look with the COLOURPOP PRESSED POWDER HIGHLIGHTER, P630, for a highly reflective highlighter that leaves your skin with a gorgeously radiant glow. Lightly apply on the tops of your cheekbones, tip of the nose, inner corner of your eyes, and on your cupid’s bow for the ultimate full-faced glow.

7) Give your eyes some extra depth and definition by drawing a thin, natural line with the MISSHA THE STYLE SHARP EYELINER, P209. This eyeliner is water, sweat, sebum, and smudge-free for long-lasting wear!

8) After curling your lashes, apply a layer or two of your favorite mascara to brighten up your eyes. The W7 ABSOLUTE LASHES MASCARA, P449, gives you an instant boost of volume, length, and extra curl!

9) For a playful coral lippie, try the OFRA LONG-LASTING LIQUID LIPSTICK in Sunset Beach, P850. It dries off matte without looking dry or chapped!

10) Seal your makeup look by spritzing on the W7 THE FIXER MAKEUP FIXING SPRAY, P299, for a fresh, dewy finish that sets your makeup in place. This fixing spray helps prevent your makeup look from smudging and melting, especially in this weather!
