A30 Pro Brush - Domed Kabuki Brush

A blended and blurred look is where makeup has invisibly melted seamlessly into your skin, creating a smooth, even finish where imperfections, lines and texture have disappeared. It’s a wonderfully natural-looking “soft focus” appearance that is always appealing, always flattering. And it’s surprisingly easy to create, if you know how. The key is new Impeccable Blurring Second-Skin Matte Foundation from Anastasia Beverly Hills.    Step1: Prime Start by prepping your skin with your favorite skincare or primer. (If you have dry skin, we recommend making our Hydrating Oil part of your routine.) Then apply 1-2 pumps of Impeccable Blurring Second-Skin Matte Foundation, starting in the center of your face and working outward. Blend with A30 Pro Brush in circular motions to a seamless finish. Focus on desired areas to build coverage, using pressing motions to massage the product into your skin. Step 2: Perfect Next, let’s brighten and conceal any visible imperfections with Magic Touch Concealer. Using the wand, apply directly under the eyes, over blemishes or discoloration – anywhere you want extra coverage. Start with a light layer and build as desired. Blend and diffuse using Brush 18 or tap with your fingertips using gentle pressure. To cover blemishes, select the shade closest to your natural skin tone. To neutralize redness, select a shade with a golden undertone. Step 3: Set Finally, set your new look with Impeccable 24HR Blurring Matte Setting Spray to blur and mattify for a long-wearing finish. Shake the bottle before use. Hold it 6-8 inches away from your face and mist 2-4 times over in an X-and-T pattern so you coat the skin evenly. (Be sure to keep it out of your eyes!) For an extra locked-in look, finish with Loose Setting Powder – this lightweight, silky formula is wonderfully blendable and sets makeup with a smooth, matte finish.
