Who doesn't dream of flawless makeup from morning to night? At Clever Beauty, we share our best tips for making your makeup last longer, while taking care of your skin and nails. Discover our expert advice and essential products for long-lasting makeup.
1. Prepare your skin and eyelids
Good makeup hold starts with well-prepared skin. Before any application, cleanse and moisturize your face with a light cream suited to your skin type. We recommend the good-skin cream from a local natural brand we love, Pulpe de vie.
For your eyelids, an essential step is often forgotten: applying a mattifying powder before eye pencil.
Why powder your eyelid before applying an eye pencil?
Applying a thin layer of powder to your eyelid helps absorb excess sebum and prevents your eye pencil from smudging into creases throughout the day. This creates a slightly grippy base that improves pencil adhesion and optimizes its hold. Try this technique with Clever Beauty eye pencil, with its clean and ultra-pigmented formula, for an intense look that lasts all day.
2. Fix your mascara for sublime lashes that last longer
Mascara is essential for enlarging and intensifying the gaze, but it can sometimes fade during the day. To avoid this, apply a first thin layer of Clever Beauty mascara, let it dry for a few seconds, then add a second zigzag layer to coat the lashes thoroughly. A little extra tip? Use an eyelash curler before application to maximize the volume and curl effect.
3. Lipstick that lasts all day
For perfect lips from morning to night, it's essential to prepare them well. Exfoliate them once or twice a week and moisturize them with the lip serum in the evening or throughout the day before applying Clever Beauty lipstick. For enhanced hold, apply a thin layer, then blot your lips with a tissue and apply a second layer for long-lasting wear.
4. Perfect nails with long-lasting polish
For a manicure that stands up to daily life, follow these essential steps:
-
Start with the Clever Beauty 3-in-1 care polish as a protective base.
-
Apply two thin coats of your favorite Clever Beauty nail polish.
-
Finish with a coat of Clever Beauty Green Top & Base for optimal shine and hold.
