Your Step-by-Step Guide to Feeling Like That Girl ✨

1) Prep Your Skin Like a Pro: Your Makeup Starts Here

If your makeup has ever looked “cakey,” “patchy,” or disappeared by lunchtime… it’s usually not the foundation. It’s the prep.

My simple routine:

• Cleanser: wash away the day (or the sleep 😴)

• Moisturizer: match it to your skin type (dry girls, don’t skip this!)

• Primer: the smooth base that helps makeup sit pretty and last longer

Primer types (quick and easy):

• Silicone-based: gives that blurred, smooth finish

• Mattifying: bestie for oily skin + shine control

• Hydrating: perfect for dry skin or winter skin

Little life lesson: If you treat your skin with love, your makeup will love you back. 😉

2) The Flawless Base: Foundation Without the Fuss

A good base should look like skin… just a little more polished.

Choosing foundation:

• Know your skin type (oily, dry, combo)

• Know your undertone (cool, warm, neutral)

• Pick your formula: liquid, cream, or powder (whatever feels best for you)

How to apply (choose your weapon 😂):

• Brush: more coverage, smooth finish

• Damp beauty sponge: natural, airbrushed vibe

• Fingers: fast, warm, easy blending

Jemmie tip: Start with a little, then build. You can always add more… but taking it off mid-face is a whole situation. 😭

3) Concealer + Contour: Brighten, Lift, Define

Concealer is like sleep in a tube. Contour is like angles on demand.

Concealer:

• Use a slightly lighter shade under the eyes

• Spot conceal blemishes with a small brush or fingertip

• Blend gently (we’re not scrubbing the face, okay love 😄)

Contour basics:

• Bronzer/Contour: hollows of cheeks, jawline, forehead

• Highlighter: cheekbones, bridge of nose, inner corners

• Blend like your life depends on it (because harsh lines are the enemy)

Life lesson: Blending in makeup and blending in life… both need patience. 😌

4) Eyes: Everyday Soft to Full Glam

Eye makeup can completely change your mood in the best way.

Everyday look:

• Neutral shades = easy + pretty

• Thin liner close to lashes = instant definition

• Mascara = done and cute

Smokey eye (without stress):

• Soft matte shade in the crease

• Darker shade on outer corner

• Blend, blend, blend

• Finish with liner + mascara

Winged liner (the legend 😅):

• Flick upward from the outer corner

• Connect back to lash line

• Fill in the triangle

• Use tape if you want it crisp (and don’t feel bad doing it!)

Quick laugh: One wing always wants to be the “main character.” Don’t fight it—just match the other one. 😂

5) Lips: The “Finish Her” Moment 💋

Lips pull the whole look together—whether it’s a nude gloss or a bold red.

Lip care:

• Exfoliate gently (lip scrub or damp washcloth)

• Balm first (always)

Lip application:

• Bullet lipstick: center out, clean edges

• Liquid lipstick: thin layers for best results

• Lip liner: stops feathering + makes color last longer

Jemmie tip: A liner that matches your natural lip color is a must-have. It makes everything look polished, even on lazy days.

6) Set It and Forget It: Make It Last

If you want your makeup to stay cute through work, errands, and life… set it.

Setting powder:

• Lightly press into areas that get oily (T-zone)

• Translucent or tinted—both work great

Setting spray:

• Mist to melt everything together

• Mattifying for oily skin

• Hydrating for dry skin

Life lesson: Sometimes the final touch is what brings it all together. Same with makeup… same with confidence. ✨

Final Reminder From Me to You 💛

Makeup is supposed to be fun. Some days it’s full glam. Some days it’s brows and lip gloss. Some days it’s nothing—and you’re still beautiful.

Practice, play, and find what makes you feel like you.

And if you ever mess up? Wipes exist for a reason, love. 😂
Happy blending! ✨
