How often should I clean my makeup brushes?

Clean your makeup brushes at least once a week to prevent bacteria buildup and ensure optimal performance. Use a brush cleaner specifically designed for makeup brushes.

How do I get a more natural glow?

Apply the finishing powders all over the face using a light hand. This will set your makeup and provide a soft, natural glow. If you'd like a more subtle highlight, mix the highlighter with the finishing powders before application.

Troubleshooting

Powder seems cakey or uneven.

Ensure you are using a clean brush and applying the product in thin, even layers. Lightly tap off excess powder before applying.

Highlighter is too intense.

Use a lighter hand when applying the strobe highlighter, or mix it with the finishing powders to tone it down. Use a setting spray to soften the effect.

Product is not blending well.

Make sure your skin is properly moisturized before applying makeup. Use a blending brush to ensure smooth, seamless transitions.
