WHAT’S CLOUD SKIN? HOW TO GET IT.

Complexion trends in the beauty world are way more diverse and dynamic than many people might think. From the velvety matte finishes to the dewy, radiant, clean girl aesthetics of the summer. The vibe of makeup is forever changing. What’s the latest contender in complexion that’s emerging on the horizon? That’s right – Cloud Skin makeup.

Cloud skin makeup, characterized by its soft-focus, ethereal glow reminiscent of a perfectly curated Instagram filter brought to life, is likely all over your TikTok feeds and FYPs. The allure of the cloud skin trend lies in its ability to elevate your skin to radiant heights – a hazy luminosity you’ll totally love.

It’s all about prepped and hydrated skin but with a hazy, lit-from-within finish that looks like your favorite filter has gone IRL. Take your fave looks to fresh heights with cloud skin.

Start with foundation.

To embark on the journey to cloud skin makeup perfection, your foundation serves as the canvas. Cloud skin makeup requires hydrated and smooth skin, achieved through a skincare regimen focused on hydration. Choosing complexion products infused with skincare ingredients further enhances the luminosity and longevity of the look. The Filter Effect Soft Focus Foundation delivers just that, designed to create a soft-focus, semi-matte finish that blurs imperfections seamlessly. Enriched with skin-loving ingredients such as hyaluronic acid and vitamin E, this foundation not only amps up your glow but also nurtures the skin, leaving it radiant and supple. For best results,
applying it with a damp beauty sponge will create that natural, skin-like
finish.
