The Best Ways To Use The New Hyaluronic Palette, According To a Make-Up Artist

‘The best part about these face palettes is how versatile they are and actually how clever it is to have multiple shades of powder in one space. Each palette has 4 different shades inside so you can really tailor the way to use all 4 shades for different parts of your face and you can really create dimension to the skin with them.

Having multiple shades also means the palette will work for you all year round too so when you may be slightly paler in the winter and when you have a sun kissed glow in the summer!
The shade in the bottom right in the Light-Medium palette works as a lovely soft bronzer for all year round for me but I love using the Medium-Dark Palette as bronzers when I am more tan in the summer time.’

‘I would recommend using the lighter shades under the eyes to brighten and set your concealer, underneath the cheekbone to intensify your contour, throughout the centre of the face to add and all over depending on your skin tone throughout the year!

The darker shades can be used around the perimeter of the face to add depth and dimension to the face. I’d also suggest to use them over the eyelid to ensure a seamless eyeshadow application.

A pro tip of mine would be to use the powders on the eyelid underneath eyeshadow and to help blend any eyeshadow you may feel isn’t blending well! Swirl your brush into the powder and buff through any harsh edges of your eyeshadow look for a seamless blend.’

‘For a seamless and natural application, I always use a slightly smaller brush so I can focus on applying the product just where I want it. I personally have two different techniques to apply the product too.

When I want a softer, more natural application, a fluffier brush is best for a lighter dusting of power. I would lightly tap the brush onto the skin first to make sure you are not picking up any product underneath and then use more sweeping motions to blend for a seamless effect and more natural finish.

When I want to go a little more glam and intensify the coverage, I use a more dense brush and a ‘press and roll’ technique to basically push the powder into the skin. This technique is great at keeping oil at bay too so if a client of mine has oilier skin, I will always press and roll the powder.’

‘When I am on a job, these palettes are KEY for me as I have everything in one from shade range, to easy application. As the formula is pressed, I can do quick touch ups without the mess and faff of opening multiple powders for each models skin type and tone!

When working on celebrity clientele for any occasion whether it is for an event, filming or red carpet, cameras are always out so any product I use must look flawless on the skin at all times.’

‘One of my favourite things about the Hyaluronic Hydra-Powder Palette is that you can touch up your makeup throughout the day with the palette without the product building up and looking heavy. It’s perfect to take your makeup look from day to night! Add a touch more under the eye to brighten, and a little more of the darkest shade in your palette to add warmth and colour back into the skin.’
