“I love the Milk Makeup Hydro Grip Primer because it gives a firm grip for your base to evenly stick to and stay set and secure,” says Louise. “I recommend using your hands to apply it, as this allows the warmth of your hands to melt it into the skin like butter!”
What’s the secret? This multitalented formula is brimming with aloe water, cherry blossom, hyaluronic acid andB vitamins to keep skin comfortably hydrated while performing a suction-like grip on your make up. And if you’re wondering about the colour, you have blue agave extract to thank, which provides extra make up-protecting properties. Simply wait for 60 seconds after application to allow the formula to fully absorb, then apply your make up as normal.

“The Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder is my go-to powder,” says Louise. “It gives a smooth, even finish, and most importantly photographs really well, avoiding flashback in photos. It’s also mattifying, which is ideal to create long-lasting make up and prevent the look of oiliness.”
Suitable for all skin tones, this finely milled formula works to minimise the look of pores, shine and fine lines and wrinkles on the go, without any cakeyness, drying or cracking. Simply dust over your complexion to absorb excess oil, brighten your appearance and smooth skin texture.

Infused with minerals, fruit oils, nourishing butters and coconut water, there’s no wonder this is Louise’s go-to lip balm. It’s rich, creamy and conditioning, helping your pout be its most hydrated, plump and pillowy self — what’s not to love?
Finally, why not heed the make up artist’s top tip: “Buy a small fan to keep in your bag! They’re great at keeping you cool, preventing your make up slipping off and even drying tears!”

One of Cult Beauty’s Junior Copywriters, Emma is a beauty obsessive who loves nothing more than keeping on top of the latest beauty trends, ingredients and innovations. Efficient, potent skin care with proven results is her weakness (she’s never without her ride or die Emma Hardie Moringa Cleansing Balm) and loves a relaxing evening in with a face mask, hair oil and candle. When Emma’s not staying up to date with the latest industry news or ordering a Cult Beauty haul, she can be found with her head buried in glossy magazines, obsessing over dogs of *every* shape and size, or visiting her favourite movie locations (Bridget Jones’ flat, anyone?).
