My Go-To Glow Base!

Hi Girls! I’ve always liked makeup that leaves my skin looking fresh and naturally radiant rather than completely matte. A glowy base makes such a difference to the finished look, especially when I’m keeping my makeup light.

Three products I’ve been enjoying for that effect are rhode Glazing Milk, Saie Glowy Super Gel, and MERIT Great Skin Instant Glow Serum.

1. rhode Glazing Milk

rhode Glazing Milk is a product I like using before makeup because it gives my skin a fresh, comfortable feel. The milky texture is lightweight and layers easily with the rest of my routine. I especially like it when I’m doing a simple makeup look. It gives me a nice base without making my skin feel overloaded with products. Foundation and concealer also sit nicely on top, which makes the whole routine feel easier.

2. Saie Glowy Super Gel

Saie Glowy Super Gel is my go-to when I want a more obvious glow. I like that I can use it in different ways, either underneath makeup or mixed into my base for extra radiance. A small amount is enough for me. I prefer a soft, luminous finish rather than looking overly shiny, and this makes it easy to adjust the level of glow. I also love using it with lighter makeup because it keeps the complexion looking lively.

3. MERIT Great Skin Instant Glow Serum

MERIT Great Skin Instant Glow Serum is another favorite for creating a fresh-looking base. I like how simple it is to work into my routine, especially when I don’t want too many layers underneath makeup. It works well with a minimal base too. I can follow it with concealer, blush, brows, and mascara and still get that polished, glowy finish I like.

For me, the best glowy makeup starts before foundation even goes on. rhode gives me a fresh base, Saie adds more luminosity, and MERIT keeps everything looking simple and polished. Sometimes, that little bit of extra glow is all my makeup needs.
