Dewy Makeup

A luminous, hydrated finish with visible glow.

Written by Lamyaa Aissi, professional makeup artist, Casablanca.

Where it sits

Varies.

Where a look sits on the natural-to-glam scale decides more than the products do. Establish it before starting rather than discovering it halfway.

The technique it depends on

Glow on the high points only. All-over dewiness reads as sweat.

On Moroccan skin, in a Moroccan climate

Difficult in coastal humidity. Better inland, and better on dry skin than oily.

One rule carries across every look on this site: check undertone rather than depth. Olive and golden skin greys against neutral and pink-based products however well the depth matches.

When it is the wrong choice

Oily skin in a Moroccan summer.
