If we talk about natural beauty, Eugenia Silva is one of our best references. The Spanish model and businesswoman is synonymous with understated elegance. And in her makeup bag there are no miracle products, only well-chosen cosmetics and a routine that adapts very well to her needs.
In fact, in one of her latest Instagram videos, she herself shared one of her big tricks up her sleeve: «today I have some very natural studio photos, they are portraits and as you can see my skin is a little red because I started using retinol». At 50, she admitted that she only uses it once a week and that at first it scared her a lot. To mitigate the effect and achieve a natural makeup look she follows a very quick and flattering step-by-step routine.
First things first? Sunscreen. Always and no matter if the day is cloudy, followed by her flagship foundation, the iconic Luminous Silk by Armani. Then she uses an eyebrow stick to fill in gaps, «very, very little blush on the eyelids, I use it for everything, really». Add a bit of lip gloss, some bronzer for the neck and voilà, a ten-out-of-ten makeup. «In the studio I’ll touch up again. Easy, I’m not a professional, but I’m already ready»
