Once your skin is prepped, it’s time for foundation. The trick is to find one that has a natural finish, meaning it is somewhere between matte and dewy. “I would choose a foundation that’s a natural finish, such as Catrice’s True Skin Foundation (£12), which is perfect for drier skin too,” Gray says.
TikTokers tend to use true matte foundations to achieve the look, but Gray says this can backfire if you have dry skin. “You don’t want to choose a foundation that is too matte because you are going to be putting powder all over on top of it, and you still want it to look hydrated and glowy underneath the powder,” she says.
