Breaking the mould of curated, edited content that's become synonymous with traditional social media, photo sharing app BeReal offers users a more authentic, pared-back way to share their stories. With its strict two-minute window to post and no-filter option, it aims to bridge the gap between polished, embellished beauty and what we actually see in a mirror. Here, we share the best skincare, haircare and makeup tips to help you live your best #filterdrop life.
THE EARLY RISER
A clear, luminous complexion paired with barely there makeup is a trend that will never go out of style. While makeup can amp up the glow factor, makeup artist Lasalle Lee says the key is to focus on skin prep. To do this, plump skin with a hydrating face mask before applying any makeup.
POOL POSITION
Here's how to look polished without overdoing it.
Add a swipe of statement-making white eyeliner to make your peepers pop.
For added staying power, layer a cream eyeliner over a pencil formula in the same shade to set your eye makeup.
NIGHT MOOD
Makeup for night calls for something more dramatic. Instead of your usual smoky eye, opt for a head-turning wispy lash look.
Achieving spidery, separated lashes can take a little bit of work, but Lasalle has a pro secret: Skip the mascara and decorate each lash line with individual falsies for a subtle take on '60s fashion icon Twiggy's signature lashes.
