Last week clown contouring was the hottest topic in the beauty industry and now it’s all about “baking” your make-up.
It’s a trick used in the drag community for years and aims to give you long-lasting make-up.
If you’re prone to shine and seeing your make-up completely disappear halfway through the day, then you might be missing out on this key step.
Baking, or ‘cooking’ your make-up, basically means that you allow translucent powder to sit on your face for ten minutes.
Kim K and her make-up team are fans of the technique
The heat from your skin gives your concealer and foundation the opportunity to melt into your skin.
While this sounds a little mad, the result (according to beauty pros) is a flawless face, minus open pores.
‘Baking’ is a trend favoured by Kim K’s make-up guru Mario Dedivanovic so if you’re a fan of her style, this is one trick you’ll want to perfect.
Make-up artist Heidi Hamoud explains “baking” in the below tutorial and now, we’re off to practice.
