This makeup routine will take you max 10 minutes, seriously. It’s the perfect dewy makeup routine that works for nearly every occasion. I mean sure, you can always glam up your routine even more, but this look kills it for day-to-day and date night. Sooo yeah, I’m pretty dang confident it’s the last 10 minute makeup routine you’ll ever need.

Three Makeup Products You Can’t Live Without
If you’re going for a *I’m wearing makeup but not wearing makeup* look, these are the three makeup products you can’t live without. For this 10 minute makeup routine you will get the perfect dewy look.
The Ultimate Skin Tint
When I say this is the ultimate skin tint, I’m not kidding. I love love love this product. I was hesitant at first because I ordered it online after taking the shade match quiz and was afraid it wouldn’t match my skintone, BUT IT DID! Not sure if that’s actually impressive, but I was shocked. I ordered it before Sephora started carrying ILIA, so now if you’re worried about trusting the shade match you can go into Sephora to figure out what shade you are.
Once you know your shade, you can go onto ILIA’s website and under each shade they list what you’d want for other products! Which is super helpful so you only have to find your shade for one product. You also don’t necessarily need different shades for Summer/Winter because the skin tint melts into your skin and sort of settles/adjusts to your skin tone – obviously only to an extent.
The Cleanest Looking Mascara
This is by far the cleanest looking mascara I have ever used. It has a dual-sided brush which helps with getting the product onto the lashes and also making sure you don’t have any clumps. You can add a lot of length with this mascara which really compliments the whole dewy makeup look.
If you’re looking for more volume than length, you can also try their Fullest Volumizing Mascara!
The Best Color Correcting Concealer
This is by far the best color correcting concealer you’ll ever use. And if it’s not, I need to know what else you’re using 😉 . The suggested shade I got based off my Skin Tint shade is perfect for me. Seriously, it gives great coverage for any zits or dark circles.
It made me realize that I had been buying the wrong shade of concealer my whole life, no joke. The color correction is top notch.
Three Products That Elevate The Dewy Look
If you want to create a natural look, these are the three products that elevate the dewy look. These are the products that make it a 10 minute routine instead of a 5 minute makeup routine. So on days I’m really running late, I can skip these and still have a put together look.
The Best Brow Gel
I have a love/hate relationship with brow gels and still feel like I’m trying to figure out what the best brow gel for me is. Here are my thoughts on the ILIA brow gel…
Pros:
– Dual-sided brush is great for making your brows look extra fluffy
– Looks natural
– Medium hold
Cons:
– It can get kind of flakey
– Medium hold
As you can tell, I have mixed feelings on the medium hold. SO yes I like it and use it all the time, but there are a few others I want to try. I’ll link the ILIA brow gel in case you want to try it. But I’ve heard that the Kosas brow gel might be better. I haven’t tried it though so I can’t speak for it!
I also want to try a stronger holding brow gel in the future just for comparison. Here’s the one I want to try next… I know I know, it’s not ILIA, shhh! But I really want to try a brow wax and I’ve heard good things about the Brow Freeze by Anastasia Beverly Hills.

The Best Cream Blush
The multi-stick is the best cream blush for a dewy look. It blends so nicely with the skin tint and gives the perfect sun kissed look. I put this on my cheeks, nose, and lips using just my fingertips!
I can’t get over how creamy this Multi Stick is. There are so many shades but my favorite is All of Me. It looks really red in the pictures, but doesn’t go on that way. It gives some nice warmth and could work with an array of skin tones.
The Best Highlighter
The Illuminator is the best highlighter ever and is a great option for a highlighter and eyeshadow combo. This product really completes the dewy makeup look providing a natural glow. I apply this in shade Stella By Starlight to my eyelids, cheekbones, nose, and upper lip with my fingertips.
The Illuminator and the Multi Stick are great compliments to each other, but can 100% be used on their own!
