While not all details have been released, the Miami-based artist reportedly revealed that the routine requires 40 separate creams, blushes, powders and gels. All these for a grand total of USD1200.
If you are not able to attend the class, well fret not because we’ve got the 5 essential take away tips you need to note right here.
DO YOUR MAKEUP FIRST AND HAIR SECOND
Mario suggests beginning with your makeup routine before moving on to hair. Doing your hair first might result in the accumulation of hair products such as hairspray on the face. To resolve that, simply wipe the face with makeup wipe prior to makeup application.
DO NOT FORGET TO APPLY FOUNDATION ON YOUR EARS
It is crucial to blend foundation out evenly on your face to avoid any streak marks but it is as important to blend foundation on your neck, eyelids, and even a little on your ears. This helps to ensure that there is a balance in the overall colour tone and your skin tone is as even as possible.
CREAM PRODUCTS BEFORE POWDER PRODUCTS
This is a given. Set all of your cream-based products with powder for an intense, thick and rich finish. This intensifies the colour pay off of your product.
BAKE YOUR CONCEALER
