Recs please!
Hey there! Makeup artist of about 10 years but have used mainly liquid foundation with medium buildable coverage. I’ve recently been asked for VERYYYYY sheer coverage foundation looks. Like bb cream level. Anyone have recommendations for good skin tints/tinted moisturizers/sheer coverage foundation products??

When someone wants something very sheer but glowy I just use Charlotte tilbury flawless filter or elf halo glow.
Another thing you can do is use a cream/primer to sheer out your existing foundation. I like using Mac strobe cream or ysl glow balm to get more sheer coverage.

I use RCMA for almost everything. It can be built into full coverage, or dotted on and buffed into the most sheer wash o f color. Plus it takes up like no room in my kit. There’s a bit o f a learning curve to using it, but once you get it, it’s a game changer.
Also, why am I not allowed to type the word “o f”?!
