How do u get that dewy look?

[Candyflossie]

Where the skin glows but isn't greasy..how do you achieve that dewy look? Is it a serum?

An oil based foundation, not a matte one.

Dry oil under my moisturiser. Coconut does the job. For extra dewiness olive oil under moisturiser but sparingingly .

Cream products such as blusher, bronzer and highlighter. I have powder products now I have wrinkles, I don’t mind dewy wrinkles.

*hate not have!

You need an illuminating primer. I like the Benefit one

Charlotte tilbury flawless filter! Or even better glow foundation by Clinique.

Highly recommend Charlotte Tilbury flawless filter, got some for Christmas and have had so many compliments on my skin. Love this stuff.

Careful with oxidation of foundation over oil.

Avoid powder

@5128gap olive oil, really?! Why not a normal facial oil?

I started in lockdown when I ran out of facial oil and read that it had started to be used in a lot of products. Its cheap, even at the top end, always in my cupboard and full of vitamins. I figure if it's OK for my insides its OK for my face. I use it every night under night cream too and my face is like velvet.

was just coming back to the thread to say the same thing! A base of that, with a thin layer of Boots No7 HydraLuminous moisturising foundation over the top gives a lovely finish, subtly dewy, not like an oil slick.

Refy gloss highlighter is a fantastic product. Also IT Cosmetics Your Skin but Better is gorgeous and dewy but not oily/shiny

I asked someone on a makeup counter this question, only I couldn't think of the word 'dewy' and so asked how can I achieve the 'sweaty' look !

Maybe I'm very old school...but Beauty Flash Balm by Clarins does this beautifully

I've got some Glossier skin tint coming as I want to try the same and was drawn in by the excessive marketing. I'll let you know how it goes!

Flawless filter is amazing but I also LOVE her youth glow. I’ve stopped using foundation and use tinted moisturiser now, bare minerals is great. Also I’ve been religious doing skincare and I think that’s really helped. Cleanse twice a day, glycolic acid toner (love nip and fab pads), serum and then moisturise!

I use Trinny London BFF as a base gives a lovely glow

It's all about your skin rather than make up products! I wanted this so started a new skincare regime using the 10 step korean beauty regime (not always 10 things everyday!) My skin has transformed to better than ever before. I then just use a nice illuminating primer/ bb cream.
It's all about hydration! Read up on Korean skincare, really can't speak highly enough of it!

I am 61 with some wrinkles, I only use cc cream and try to use cream blushers, but I find with wrinkles if my skin is to dewy looking the wrinkles look worse, so then I have to put a little powder on top.

For me, it’s all about setting your makeup with the right product. I use either Laura Mercier candlelight or Hourglass Infinity ambient light powder. Keeps shine at bay but gives the skin a lovely dewy finish.

I mix castor oil with my foundation and get exactly the effect you mean, OP. You can mix them on a small plate or even on the back of your hand. I then apply with either a damp beauty blender or a (kabuki) brush.

Glossier Futuredew and Marcelle Golden BB cream do it for me.

I use a shimmery highlighter over moisturising liquid foundation. Both just from no 7 and not expensive at all
