The wetlook trend did not start with makeup; it starts with skincare. A hydrating glowing skin lays the foundation for any beauty look and can make a statement of natural beauty. Achieving a, “step out of the spa”, look requires the right skincare products and techniques to lock in moisture and create a dewy look.
Here are the guides to achieve a healthy dewy look with skincare.
Double cleanse for a fresh base
Oil based cleanser to melt away makeup and sunscreen.
Then follow my a water based cleanser to deep clean without stripping the skin.
Exfoliate
Use a chemical exfoliator like BHAs 2-3 time a week for a gentle effective glow.
Note: exfoliate at night so your can can repair while you rest.
Hydrate with toner and essences.
Lightweight hydration is key for a dewy look
Hydrating with humectants like hyaluronic acids and glycerin to plump the skin. Use your hands to gently press the toner into your skin for maximum absorption
Layer a hydrating serum.
Serums have concentrated active ingredients like hyaluronic acids for hydration and vitamin c for enhancing and brightening the skin. For instant dewyness, opt for serums with light effective finish or pearl-like particles.
Apply while skin is damp to boost hydration.
Moisturize for glow
A rich moisturizer seals in the hydration and and creates a smooth supple base essential for the wetlook.
Use a light weight gel cream for the oily skin or a rich cream for dry skin. Opt for ingredients like ceramide and shea butter for long lasting skin hydration. Tip: warm moisturizer in hands and gentle press into the skin to enhance absorption and maintain the radiant sheen.
Seal glow with face oil
Face oil acts as a final touch to create a high shine. Lightweight oils such as jojoba and rosehip will not feel greasy. 2-3 drops pressed into the high points of the face gives a wet finish look as it locks in moisture.
