Underpainting promises perfect make-up like a professional

It doesn’t matter if you’re already a makeup professional or a complete beginner – this makeup hack is for everyone. Instead of many small steps, make-up, contour, concealer and blush are applied all in one. Sounds too good to be true? We thought so too – but as numerous videos prove, you can achieve a wonderful result with the trend within a very short time. We’ll show you how it’s done.

Celebrity makeup artist started the trend

None other than celebrity make-up artist Scott Barnes started the trend. The beauty guru is known for his great make-up looks and is regularly booked by world stars like Jennifer Lopez.

This is why the makeup hack is so hyped

We totally understand why the trend at TikTok is going viral right now – because Scott Barnes’ make-up method not only saves us a lot of time in the bathroom, the finish of the make-up is also a lot more even and does not look cakey at all “. How strong the make-up is is up to us. The more product you use, the more opaque it becomes. The make-up look is therefore suitable for both day make-up and a full glam look.

The order and the right products make all the difference

The order in which the products are applied plays a decisive role here. Because we don’t start with the foundation as usual – instead we use the concealer first. But before we start, a small but nice tip: It is best to use only cream products for the make-up look, they are easier to blend and later ensure a nicer finish.

Highlight the beauty of your face

Beauty TikToker @scortezzbeauty shows how it’s done: Grab your favorite concealer and apply the product under your eyes as usual. The concealer is also used on the bridge of the nose, on the middle of the forehead and on the sides of the nose. Then you use either a beauty blender or a brush and work the product very easily into your skin.

Let’s get bronzed

Then we apply our Contour product. We prefer to use this above the forehead, on the nose and on the cheekbones. This is followed by the blush, which we apply to our cheeks as usual. A little tip: the higher the blush is applied to the cheekbones, the more lifted and alert your gaze will look later.

Blend, blend, blend

Now grab your foundation and a fluffy make-up brush and put a little product on the brush. Then run the brush over your face in a circular or stroking motion. The aim is for your make-up to combine with your base of contour, concealer and blush. You repeat this process a few times until you can no longer see any hard edges. Now just fill in the eyebrows a little, apply mascara and emphasize the eyes with an eye shadow – your perfect full make-up look is ready!
