Harsh lighting exaggerates everything, so preparation is half the look. Let moisturizer set for ten minutes before base so it grips instead of sliding. If flash is likely, keep SPF out of the makeup step and rely on earlier skincare zinc/titanium and HD silica powders can bounce light and create a white cast. Use a thin, buildable foundation layer; two sheer passes beat one heavy one. Correct only where needed: a whisper of green on redness, peach for under-eye blue, then micro-conceal with a tiny brush. Set strategically by pressing a small amount of translucent powder through a puff onto the sides of the nose, center of forehead, and chin; leave cheeks with a skin finish so you don’t look flat. Finish with a fine mist setting spray to re-meld powder into the base, then tissue-blot once to remove hotspots. Keep a pocket kitblot papers, lipstick, and a mini mist and you’ll look alive under LEDs instead of lacquered.
