“Michelle is like, makeup [or] no makeup, she just looks amazing and effortless every time you see her.”

Skin Prep

For skincare, Rebecca particularly loves the brand U Beauty, relying on products like The Super Hydrator, The Mantle Skin Conditioning Wash, and The Plasma Lip Compound.

Additional products she used on Michelle include the OSEA Anti-Aging Body Balm, Elta MD Face Sunscreen, and Shani Darden Hydration Peptide Cream.

Face

Rebecca turned to several brands to create Jaclyn’s glowing skin but Ciele was one of her favorites. She explained that she loves that the brand’s products aren’t pore-clogging and have a high SPF.

She specifically used the Tint & Protect Medium Coverage Serum Foundation in two shades — a lighter shade in the middle of Michelle’s face and a darker shade around the outside to provide “depth without any harshness.”

Additional products she used by Ciele include the Filter & Protect Finishing and Setting Powder and the Blush & Protect Liquid Blush in the shade Kirsty.

To complete the look, Rebecca used Cle De Peau Beaute Concealer as a spot concealer, Saie Sun Melt Natural Cream Bronzer, and RMS Beauty Luminizer.

Eyes

Rebecca kept Jaclyn’s eyes simple, using Ilia Liquid Powder Eye Shadow Tint Glaze, Charlotte Tilbury Colour Chameleon Eyeshadow Pencil, and MERIT Clean Lash Lengthening Tubing Mascara.

Lips

Rebecca wanted to keep Jaclyn’s lips as minimal as possible and turned to the U Beauty Plasma Lip Compound in the shade Rose.
