Fasting can make your skin feel dry and tired, which may affect how your makeup looks. But with the right techniques, you can maintain a fresh, dewy look all day, even without touch-ups.
1. Start With a Hydrating Base
A well-moisturized face is key. Use a lightweight, oil-free moisturizer before makeup. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid or glycerin lock in moisture and prevent your foundation from looking cakey.
2. Use a Luminous Primer
Apply a hydrating or glow-boosting primer to create a smooth base. It helps your makeup adhere better, stay longer, and maintain a natural glow.
3. Choose Lightweight, Dewy Foundation
· Opt for tinted moisturizers or light-coverage foundations.
· Avoid heavy matte foundations as they can make skin look flat during fasting.
· Mix a drop of liquid highlighter with your foundation for an all-over radiance.
4. Set makeup Strategically
· Use translucent powder only on oily areas (like T-zone).
· Finish with a dewy setting spray to lock makeup in place and refresh your skin.
5. Cream Products Over Powder
· Use cream blushes, bronzers, and highlighters instead of powders.
· Cream formulas blend naturally, maintain a dewy finish, and prevent your makeup from looking dry or patchy.
6. Hydrate Your Lips and Eyes
· Apply a tinted lip balm or moisturizing lipstick.
· Use cream eyeshadows or pencils instead of powder to prevent creasing and dryness.
7. Blot Instead of Reapplying
If your skin gets oily, blot with tissue sheets instead of adding more powder. This maintains your dewy look without looking cakey.
8. Carry a mini Mist
A facial mist is a fasting lifesaver. Spritz lightly whenever your skin feels tired or dull to refresh makeup and boost hydration.
Pro Tip: Pair these makeup tips with a hydrating skincare routine during Suhoor and Iftar to keep skin naturally glowing. This way, your makeup stays fresh, radiant, and comfortable all day long.
