No more layering all your makeup.
Full glam has its appeals, but not everyone loves how it feels on the skin.
After all, thats a lot of product to apply to a single canvas.
But fear not: Theres a way to get the complexion-smoothing benefits of full glam, without the drawbacks.
Its called the Demi Method.
It promises to enhance your skin, versus simply covering it up.
Sound like your kind of routine?
Read on for all you gotta know about the Demi Method.
What is the Demi Method?
The Demi Method is a happy medium between a clean look and a full-face glam, Gibson says.
The approach is all about strategically placing color in specific areas to balance and conceal.
By brightening certain spots and darkening others, you might create an even, uniform complexion without excess product.
With the help of color science, redness is minimized and other problem areas are concealed.
Think of it as color-correcting, but with your regular makeup products.
How Do You Do Demi Method?
To nail the Demi Method, youll need to follow a few key steps.
Start with a super-hydrated face, says Gibson.
Underpainting comes next and be warned, it may look a little strange when you first start.
It might look a little scary at first, but itll look cute soon enough, Gibson says.
The key is to avoid over-blending the bronze base.
Thats what will create depth and contrast for the final look.
To tie it all together, use some cream blush on the center of your lips.
Since this look is all about skin, Gibson suggests using minimal powder.
To warm up the face, she recommendsHuda Tantours, because its neither too warm nor too cool.
