My Go-To for a Low Coverage Base.

low coverage base concealer maybelline rimmel fit me stay matte bh cosmetics brush
Usually when it comes to wearing makeup, I prefer to go all out. However, sometimes when I need to quickly head out and run some errands, it really is not practical or efficient to spend loads of time on my makeup, especially on  my base which is usually the most time-consuming. As you can see, for me it literally takes two products and a specific brush in achieving that low coverage base - they're great products to achieve that bare minimum look.

I totally skip on foundation and go straight to concealer. I simply swipe my concealer under my eyes and on my T-zone and blend away. I love using the Maybelline Fit Me concealer for this especially since it has really good coverage, but it is also very moisturizing so it doesn't dry the skin when applied all over the face without foundation underneath (which most concealers can do). To set my concealer, plus add a bit more coverage, I apply a light powder all over. Even though this shade is translucent, it does indeed smooth the entire skin and makes it appear as if you have a high coverage base, in the most flattering way possible. I apply these products using a large powder brush as it is not dense which means that it applies makeup much more softly and lightly, which is exactly what I want for a low coverage base. Also, its size is perfect for quickly and easily covering the entire face.


I love the combination of this effortless base as offers the right amount of coverage that balances out a somewhat polished look with a fresh natural face. What are your go-to products for a low coverage base?

  4. I like to go in with a powder foundation! I know it's technically not low-coverage as my MAC Studio Plus gives light-medium coverage, but I like it on casual days or when I'm in a rush.
