The Ultimate Facetime Date Beauty Checklist

Blackhead Clearing Fizz Mask, £19.50, Dermalogica

Step one: It’s face mask time

First up, is a little pamper time post-shower with a bit of self-care skincare. This unique mask’s active fizzing formula effectively cleans pores and helps target blackheads. The technology inside activates upon application, helping to open pores, decongest skin and facilitation blackhead extractions. Sulphur provides anti-microbial benefits to help keep skin clear, Kaolin Clay absorbs excess oil and purifies the skin while Apple Fruit Extract helps to maintain hydration.

Step two: A lick of moisture

The brand philosophy creates so many luscious skincare formulas and this lightweight water cream of theirs is a must-have in your collection. The fast-absorbing texture of this innovative cream replenishes parched skin by increasing hydration levels +86% and delivering a cool burst of 72-hour hydration. If after a soak in the bath or a nice hot shower, you find your cheeks just won’t cool down, this is the perfect product to ensure a lovely smooth, cooling base under your makeup before the big call.

BB Cream, £9.95, NOTE

Step three: One subtle and luminous base

I know, I know, when it comes to makeup while you’re stuck at home, you’d think that rarely anyone is making the effort to be looking even more beautiful than they naturally are but why not add a little something for the camera? After all, you’re going on a date via Facetime so why not feel and look your best? This BB Cream by NOTE cosmetics offers medium coverage with citrus and grape extracts to give your skin that added boost of rejuvenation.

So Kiss Me Lipstick & Liner Set, £9.95, SOSU by SJ

Step 6: A final touch of colour

Last but not least, lipstick. Adding a lip colour really makes a difference. When it comes to Facetime dates, I think it’s safe to say we’re all trying to build on that natural glow rather than go for that heavy-duty evening out look. Playing around with different shades of nudes is always your best bet to finally find that ‘my lip colour but better’ shade to let your subtle blusher pop and your highlight glow keeping the attention on your sultry, luminous base.
