Are you tired of having to choose between having skin that shines during the day or displaying a complexion plastered by makeup from morning to night? A new powder application technique called pinpoint powdering seems to be the answer to this problem. We present to you this very simple trick that changes the game!
If in terms of makeup of the complexion two clans clash – team complexion glowy Vs team matte complexion – everyone agrees that skin that shines when it regains fat can ruin even the most beautiful of makeup. While it is generally necessary to choose between taking the risk of posting a few unsightly shine throughout the day to ensure a natural complexion or be content to excessively powder our face to avoid them at all costs, we must recognize that the ideal is to create a fair balance between areas of light and shine, and areas of impeccable mattness on the face. Only in this way can we display an ultra natural complexion while wearing makeup and well powdered. Easier said than done…
Fortunately, the celebrity makeup artist Nikki DeRoest, to whom we notably owe the perfect complexions of Hailey Bieber and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, shared the secrets ofpowder application to obtain this ideal result, or rather those of a technique named pinpoint powdering which is starting to make people talk about it on the web.
The technique of pinpoint powdering, what’s this ?
the pinpoint powdering, which can be translated into French as “precision powder”, is a special way of applying powder that disrupts the outdated precepts according to which we should apply the finishing powder all over our face. More concretely, this technique is based on a targeted application of the powder on only a few areas of the face in order to let the glow natural skin stand out in other places despite makeup. The result is a perfect complexion that gains in dimension, areas of skin that are well matified and others that see their sublimated radiance. What to display a skin healthy perfect and avoid complexion cakey.

How to reproduce the technique of pinpoint powdering ?
Rest assured, this technique is much less complicated to practice than to pronounce! In order to achieve this precise application, it is necessary, as the star make-up artist explains to us in a video posted on his Instagram account @nikkideroest, to equip oneself witha translucent powder and use a different brush from the one naturally used for the powder. Rather than opting for a large brush with a large puff, the make-up artist advises to choose a small makeup brush type eye shadow blending brush to be able to easily target the areas of skin to mattify on application.

The steps to follow in detail:
- Start by taking a little powder with the small brush then sweep it gently between your eyebrows to erase the unsightly shine that often appears there.
- Go up gently with the puff towards the center of the forehead only, in order, this time, to keep the shine on the sides of the forehead.
- Continue by depositing a little more powder in the nasolabial folds because it is a very prone area to shiny skin and visible pores. To do this, make small, delicate movements on the wings of the nose with the brush.
- Then add a hint of powder in the center of the chin, without ever going up towards the sides of the mouth which must remain natural.
- If you tend to have makeup that just flies under the eyes because your skin regains quickly in this area, do not hesitate to deposit the leftover powder that are on the brush by gently sweeping it under your eyes. Just be careful to keep a light hand on this area where the skin is very thin because an excess of powder could give the impression that your skin is dry or, worse, bring out the small fine lines.
