Capsule Collection - Part 1: Base

Capsule Collection - Part 1: Base

How to build your Capsule Collection Part 1: Base I’m all about less-is-more and think beauty should be simple. Here’s my absolute must haves on how to build a strong capsule makeup-wardrobe that works all year around. Refresh your makeup bag with clean and vegan staples!   Foundation It’s always good to have two foundation shades to use through the year. One for your skin when you’re as pale as you get and one for when you’re tanned. I use shades 06 and 09. Mix and blend together through the seasons. Shop Glass Skin Foundation here. Powder 2.  I use our Miracle Powder in shade 02 all year around since it has skin matching pigments. I use it daily when I want a light fresh look with nothing else underneath, or on top of my foundation to fixate when I want more coverage. Shop Miracle Powder here. Blush 3. I’m a big fan of fresh rosy cheeks. I use Cheeky for the perfect allround shade. When I’m tanned, I love experimenting with colors based on the look and season. Shop Air Blush Cream here. Lips 4. I think it’s good to have two choices for lips in order to switch depending on your mood and occasion. Here’s my two favorite ones that I use all the time. I think it’s good to have a Nude Lip Combo and a more colorful combo to play around with. Shop the Lip combo here. Eyes 5. It’s an absolute must for everyone to have a bright and a brown pencil in their capsule makeup wardrobe. You can create multiple looks with both. Everything from a classic wing and a smokey eye – to just a fresh look that makes your eyes look bigger. Shop Satin Kohl Eye Pencil here. Mascara 6. A fresh mascara to switch every 3 months. Shop Cloud Mascara here. Eyebrows 7. No matter how much or little makeup I have on I always need to fill in my brows with our Brow Pencil in Medium Brown. It creates super thin, hair-like strokes. I prefer having quite light brows since it gives a softer look. Shop Brow Pencil here. Tools 8. High quality tools, such as pencil sharpener, powder brush, blush brush, foundation brush, eyeshadow brush, angled/spolie & a lash curler are essential! Shop the tools here. A fresh makeup bag 9. Make sure to switch your makeup bag every now to make the experience more enjoyable. Shop capsule collection here.

A key to find harmony in your makeup is to match the shade of your cheeks with your lips. My favorite way to do that is to use the it-shade this season - our Air Blush Cream in Fancy Face. I love this cool red tone that gives you that “fresh out of a long walk-look”.  Follow my 3 step guide below!  Shop Fancy Face here.
