13 Hair and Makeup Life Savers

Flawless skin in a flash

It’s what we all want and Stila makeup artist Sarah Lucero gave us the secret formula backstage at Lela Rose. Her method: use eye shadow primer on lids to clean them up and make your mascara stand out more. Then use a good primer to cut redness, dark circles and brown spots. The more work your primer does, the less your foundation has to cover. And if you want a satin matte finish (it was all over the runways), stay away from primers that are glowy or dewy, that’ll mess up the texture of your skin even if you use a matte foundation on top of it. No huge surprise, but she likes Stila One Step Makeup, $44.
