If you thought foundation was absolutely necessary, these celebs say otherwise! They completely avoid it when doing their makeup offscreen. And don’t get me wrong, a good foundation can make your skin look good in photos, but ditching foundation in your everyday makeup routine can make your skin look good IRL.
Don’t believe me? Take it from celebs like Ananya Panday, Shraddha Kapoor, Zendaya who skip foundation all the time and use other complexion products to look fresh and glowy instead. If you’re intrigued by this no-foundation makeup routine, here’s how celebs do it.
Ananya Panday
“I don’t use foundation. I put concealer under my eyes and all over my face and set it with a loose powder,” said Ananya in an interview. Over that, she guses a colour corrector and blush. Ananya said, “I’m obsessed with blush. I use it on my cheeks, nose, chin, and forehead. I just love that pink-flushed look.”
If you want to glow like Ananya without using foundation, add the Etude Dear Darling Water Gel Lip & Cheek Tint 5 G – PK004 to your everyday makeup routine.
Zendaya
The Euphoria star has spoken about her experiencing hormonal acne and so when she needs to do her makeup when her skin is breaking out, she skips foundation. Zendaya recommends cleansing and moisturising her skin and then dabbing a concealer on blemishes and her under eyes with her fingers. She then mattifies and sets her entire face with translucent powder and adds cream blush, bronzer, highlighter, mascara, and gloss.
Zendaya also said that lip gloss is one of the most underrated products and it definitely makes her skin look even more juicy and glowing. The Type Beauty Soak It Lip Lustre For Dry Lips – Salty is a great product for the pout.
Shraddha Kapoor
When asked about what products she uses in her everyday makeup routine in an interview, Shraddha said, “Some recent additions to my everyday makeup routine are BB Cream, Concealer and Compact. An eyebrow pencil for defined brows and a swipe of bold lipstick, and I’m ready to set out!”
BB creams are a great alternative to foundation as they offer coverage with skincare benefits too and the MyGlamm Super Serum BB Cream is an excellent pick.
Palak Tiwari
In an interview, Palak said, “In 2015-2016, I used to think that the more the better, like the more makeup I put the better I’ll look but as I grew older I realised that your makeup needs to suit your skin. And my skin looks better with less coverage on my face. So, now I really avoid foundation.” She instead uses concealer only on her under eyes and only sets the area with powder. She then uses cream blush, cream contour, and powder highlighter to complete her base.
The Gush Stacked In Your Favour 3 In 1 Vegan Face Palette – Weekdays To Weekend is a product that has all three in such a cute package!
So the next time you want to skip foundation but are on the fence about it, take cue from these stunning celebs and their fresh and minimal makeup routines.
