MONDAY
THE VIBE: Go back to school looking refreshed and ready to tackle the year. Keep your look simple and classic, with glowy skin and a pop of red on your lips.
GRWGL: Apply a tinted moisturizer over a hydrating face cream (cover any blemishes with a creamy concealer so the skin looks natural and even, says makeup artist Nydia Figueroa), then prep your lips with a rich balm. Sweep blush over the apples of your cheeks (pick one that complements your lipstick) and gently dust highlighter over your cheekbones for a luminous effect. Finally, wipe away leftover lip balm and apply cherry red lipstick. “To perfect your lip line, dab a brush in a little bit of concealer or foundation and clean up the edges,” shares Figueroa.
