Silke used these products for her Scandi party look

What makes a party look beautiful and Scandinavian? One of the key words is natural glow, and that is what your makeup needs to be able to do. The trend is no longer to cover up with a layer, but to blend in with makeup that works naturally and smoothly with your skin.

 

SWAE makeup is built on important skincare principles, which makes it different and easier to create a beautiful party look with than anything we think you have ever tried before.

1. The Base – Nude Skin Tint + Concealer

The base is what makes all the other makeup look good. SWAE's Nude Skin Tint adapts in a magically adaptive way to your skin tone, and evens out shadows with medium coverage. The result is a uniquely harmonious and natural glow.

Silke did not use any form of primer – that job is handled by hydrating humectants in our Skin Tint, which is really practical. To get an ultra-flawless look, Silke in this case applied 02 Nude Skin Tint Medium with a brush, but the result is almost the same with a beauty blender or your fingers.

Afterwards, she used Concealer 02 Medium to lift light shadows under the eyes, and covered a little redness here and there. The SWAE Concealer is related to the Skin Tint, so it blends like a dream and is buildable.

2. Bronzer

When aiming for a Scandi look, it is important that your bronzer does not leave a too yellow or reddish cast, which is a problem you have probably noticed many bronzers have. SWAE’s Bronzer, on the other hand, is Scandi-approved, and adds a warm glow to your skin in a unique way that looks natural.

Silke used a brush and applied 01 Light Bronzer in a flowing figure-3 motion from the temples down below the cheekbones and further down to the jawline. Afterwards, she added a little extra under the cheekbones to accentuate them. Remember 'less-is-more' when it comes to bronzer.

3. Highlighter+Blush Combo

Scandi blush+highlighter should be easy to use and the result effortlessly chic. Many products on the market 'try too hard' with shimmer and berry colors that become way too much. With SWAE's blush+highlighter combo, in the colors peach, champagne nude, and fresh fig, you can instead create the beautiful Scandinavian glamorous look all your friends have been sighing for.

With her fingers, Silke first dabbed the cream blush from our 02 Blush Highlighter Combo Champagne/Peach along the cheekbone and blended it in an oval, directed from the outer part of the apple of the cheek up towards the ear. Be careful not to go too far onto the apple of the cheek towards the nose - because that is not the trend.

Afterwards, Silke dabbed and blended the highlighter from the combo in a line on the cheekbone. And with a fingertip of highlighter in the inner corner of the eye and on the brow bone, the blush+highlighter look is perfect.

4. Brows, lashes and eyelids

To define her brows, Silke used SWAE 02 Medium Brow Shade, which with its ash-brown color is beautiful and neutral. If you have slightly lighter brows, the SWAE brow shade is a life-saver that frames your brows nicely and naturally, without any color cast on the skin beneath the brow. As eyeshadow, Silke used a little SWAE 01 Light bronzer, and everything was finished off with mascara.

5. Lipliner and Lipgloss

Virtually all women are lipgloss experts, so we don't need to say much here. Other than that Silke used a lipliner first, to accentuate the lip contour slightly, and then applied our ultra-popular 01 Beyond Nude Lipgloss.

Hvilke faver på produkterne skal du selv bruge for at få looket? Silke er det vi i årstids-terminologien for hudtoner kalder 'forår'. Dvs. hendes undertone er varm og hun får peachy-røde kinder når hun fx har det varmt. Det betyder den let varme Champagne+Peach Blush Highlighter Combo passer godt til hende. Har du en lidt køligere undertone og dine kinder fx får rødlig farve allá frisk figen når du går op af trapperne, så er 02 Lush Nude/Sheer fig comboen formodentlig rigtig smuk på dig.
