Baby shower makeup
Season changes the skin before it changes the look, and the base has to follow the skin.
Written by Lamyaa Aissi, professional makeup artist, Casablanca.
Decide the intensity before the first product goes on, not halfway through.
What actually decides it
Humidity and temperature. Coastal humidity rewards matte finishes; dry inland heat punishes them and wants layered hydration underneath.
The specific case of baby shower. Start from the condition it has to survive — how long, in what light, photographed or not — and work backwards to the formula. Choosing the product first and hoping is what produces most of the failures.
On Moroccan skin, in a Moroccan climate
Casablanca and Rabat are humid year-round while Marrakech and the interior are dry — so a seasonal rule written for one is wrong for the other, in the same country and the same month.
What it will not do
Seasonal adjustment cannot fix a base chosen for the wrong skin type.
