Then a flawless complexion was achieved thanks to the Perfect Luminous Liquid Foundation which has been dimmed to the outside: the center of the face towards the ears. To hide the redness and create a flawless complexion, Perfect Luminous Concealer was applied to the imperfections of the face and tapped under the eyes. Cheekbones showed a warm hue and romantic thanks to the application of the new Blush in the shade Bacio 50, swept cheekbone towards the ears. The face was illuminated with The Illuminator in Eva shade 3, applied along the top of the cheekbones and the bridge of the nose while the tone was set with The Pressed Powder around the nose and forehead.
