Yes! So true. RayeRaye, You look stunning. At the start of the video, I thought u already had make up on then I realized that was just you naturally. :D
Tatiana Williams damnnn even in all that humidity it was on point like that...?!?! Gotta say, I wasn’t entirely sold on the whole powder before foundation thing but now I’m for sure bout to go try it out! 🙆♀️
So I have been doing translucent powder before applying my foundation for years. No flashback issues. I use way less foundation and my skin has a flawless look all day. The trick (for me) has been using a fine powder that is close to my skin tone. Absolutely not something white... Unless that's your tone 😉. I promise you, if you can find the right tone for the powder, this hack is well worth it. 👍🏽👍🏽 #WeAreAll👸🏽
More like Never! I hope this is a more of a hobby for her cuz as beautiful as her skin already is.. everything except the lipstick and eyeliner is a complete waste of time🤦
I remember when she first started making videos and her intro was her husband singing "Its my, it's my, it's my RayRay" I still sing that intro whenever I watch one of her videos.
I don't wear glasses, but my friends that do tend to set there nose area where the pads would sit a little more than everywhere else and it works for them.
I’ve been doing this for awhile and it definitely helps to minimize pores and controls oil throughout the day. Which leaves me with a flawless application for hours.
This is an old school hack I learned from a model several years ago. Works wonders on oily skin. Wouldn’t recommend on dry skin. Loved the video and your makeup is flawless!
See I’m not sure if my skin is oily or dry cause when I touch it, it feels moist, but I tried this, and it looked really bad so that means my skin is dry? Someone please help! I’ve been trying to get flawless make up I’m just not good at it cause I’ve never really used it before.
I use the Laura Mercier translucent powder or Maybelline shine free powder before applying my foundation. It works wonders and doesn't give flashback or a white cast
4aCurlie I put the same amount as if I'm going to bake. I press it in tho with a beauty blender tho. Before applying the foundation. I get really oily throughout the day and that's the only thing that helps me
Shelby pope right i hate the times we’re in now it’s like damn clearly you knew there would be applying makeup n telling her she look better without it wtf
Sam Nichol That's their ignorance, and I would make eye contact and speak! Just practice saying "Hello" when you are out..and C the difference! Have a great day!✌🏽
bronzed beauty yes I use the Make Up For Ever Step 1 Skin Equalizer Base Mattifying Primer and I let it sit for about a minute then I move on to my powder and my makeup routine.
i absolutely love your personality! most youtubers like to be over the top and loud and it just gets annoying... seeing someone as chill and laid back as you is so refreshing. you’re also super gorgeous, and your skin is literally so nice!!! i should definitely try differin, it’s that time of the month rn and i’m breaking out HELLA. i’m only 1 minute into this and i already subbed btw, i love your content!
I use this technique whenever I wear makeup, to avoid the white cast, I brush off the excess powder that didn’t absorb. Plus the translucent powder I use is like peachy color.
Hey Raye, here are some constructive criticisms to your technique. 1) You're suppose to apply primer first then set the primer with the powder. This adds an extra barrier to keep the oils in your face at bay as the day goes on, not to immediately soak the oil in your face, 2) You did apply too much, you don't bake, you set the powder like you would your foundation after 3) After your foundation and concealer is applied you set your face again to add the normal powder barrier for your oils 4) I think it was just the powder that caused flashback cause this technique doesn't cause me flashback. I think you should try it again using these steps and your results will be better. Love you xoxo
Yeah, that's what I was thinking as well. Even though she didn't recommend it here, most of the people I've seen do this used Laura Mercier (setting their primer with it as you said, either with a brush or a beauty blender) and have loved it. No flashback. So I hope she sees these comments and tries this technique again for herself to see if she likes it better with a different powder and if there's no flashback
Love this hack on oily skin. Your skin look flawless and not greasy at all. Great for the bride with oily skin, just touch up with powder to be picture perfect.
any translucent powder with silica will cause flashback! Usually the ones that are purely white like that will have silica, so make sure to check the ingredients when you purchase translucent powders
Humm....I got the white issue with bare minerals....I wonder if it has silica. I mean honestly I am a really pale girl but I looked outright dead man hahaha
I really thought that everybody was doing this already that's how I apply my makeup I could truly say I'm not as detailed as you are but it really pays when you are more detail doing your makeup cuz I guess it really shows off everything but I'm happy somebody came out and said the secret I mean I thought everybody was already doing it but I love your video keep up the good work.
Everyone complimenting on her skin must be new viewers. It took work and a great routine to get to that point because she used to struggle with acne. She has videos on them.
Anna Baker buy talc free baby powder. Solved. Most don't have talc anymore anyway. Also, unless you're slathering pure talc that naturally contains asbestos all over your lady parts, the chances are pretty damn low of developing any sort of ovarian cancer (which is the only one it's *very* loosely linked to.)
Same effect u get from spraying setting spray on before your foundation ....ultimately the key to flawless make up is good skin once u get past knowing how to apply it and what works for you
chi chichi for flawless you need full coverage aswell as skincare as medium and light coverage won't do a thing for flawless bases unless you have perfect airbrushed skin with zero imperfections which will never happen no matter how hard you try as everyone's face has imperfections and always will
Aaron Walker what I meant by "flawless" is not having any raised blemishes or scabs ...things like large pores and dents in skin can be filled in and concealed with good primers and moisturizers
chi chichi make up can't erase raised blemishes it can only correct redness and as someone with terrible raised breakouts who uses all high end luxury brands no amount of make up can change that fact unless you use a photo editor to smooth out the skin for flawless none raised blemishes you need a acne skin care routine not make up as no make up can erase texture or bumps and all these beauty gurus use filters when filming their videos which is a proven fact
let me just tell yall something... I struggled with oily skin for sooo long and this is definitely a HACK! it works sooo well I had a photoshoot today and the sun was blazing hot !! I tried this trick before my shoot and my face stayed matte for a very long time and when a little bit of oil finally started to show it didn't look cakey or oily it just looked like a natural glow/dewy look. I'm so happy I seen this video and tried this out this will be part of my makeup routine for sure!
ive been using this technique for a long time! i use laura mercier brightening translucent powder but i dont use alot. i get some on my fluffy brush and buff it into my face then i get my NARS luminous weightless foundation and buff it in and BAM! FLAWLESS!
So many saying you look better without makeup. I agree with the fact you’re just a natural beauty!!! But I personally love love love your look both ways!! You’re slaying it!!! Love 💕 your channel!!!
I just wanted to say that this video was the first one that i checked out on your channel. If I would dare to compare you with any of the "high up there" youtubers, you should know that you make me feel more welcomed and on the same level. The thing about you, is that you dont try to be something that you aren't. I feel like you are so thankful for your channel, and for the products which are given to you. That makes me really happy. Would I watch some more? Yes please.
You look so much better with just your brown and no other make up on. Beautiful woman. Thank you for this! I don’t wear a bunch of makeup, but I will be trying this technique.
Tynesha Smith I'm saying she should make an update one because her skin ain't never looked this good on here. I honestly thought she had on foundation when the video started lol
I think the flashback is due to that powder. When I do this with my Laura Mercier Medium Deep powder or my Fiona Stiles Amalfi powder it doesn't give me any flashback. And I don't get cake face with either of those. I also don't bake with it. I just press the powder into my skin so that it disappears with a sponge and foundation goes over it with no problem.
You can use powders that are close to your skin tone to avoid flashbacks. But this is the same as adding another layer of makeup, so with the foundation, concealer, and additional powder, it's gonna look cakey. It may look good in pictures but in real life Ya cakey!
OMGGG ur skin is flawlesss !! I need that skincare routine sis and it was so satisfying watching you apply foundation on top of the powder ! Subscribed 💞💞💞
tbh, i think she's prettier without makeup 😍 I love how she looks with make up on too, but she's just SOOOOO adorable and cute without makeup 😍💕 and not to talk about her adorable baby hairs.... LIKE GURL, U SLAYY❤ she literally looks like a real life disney prinsess😍 gurl, u beautiful.
I dont think the flashback was from the translucent powder. Heres why: Because in the photo, your WHOLE face had flashback, and in places where you didnt even apply the translucent powder. If it was from the powder, you would have received flashback only in areas of your face where the powder was applied. It could be from another product, sometimes setting sprays can also give flashback in pictures & photography.
Even tho she applied the powder in certain areas, blending it with the liquid caused it to transfer. Using normal foundation on TOP of the translucent powder before applying foundation minimizes the white face. I learned that from a drag queen. 😉
Missy Smith what do you mean? She didn’t mix any powder in with the foundation she said that it recommended she did that but she didn’t. All she did was put the powder on her face and then put foundation over it. I also don’t think it was the powered that caused the flashback because her forehead was not white at all and she put a good amount of power on her forehead. That’s just my observation. Maybe I misunderstood your comment.
Gabi Mecillas Well since this is makeup I didn't want ppl thinking AaliyahJay the youtuber. Just thought automatically that would happen if I didn't clarify
Girly!! Your skin!!👍🏽😩🙌🏽 Looking good. I know you were having problems before, so awesome to see this! Beautiful with or without blemishes!! 💕☺️ love you!!
ItsMyRayeRaye OMG no babe.. you're NOT fat not even the slightest.. I have 5 children and there's always a change in skin .. It's a glow.. can't explain it.. It's not a bad thing
daisy r I've read that silica powders need to be applied and pressed in with a damp sponge to lessen flashback. I wonder if it was something else cause her WHOLE face had a white cast and she only put the powder on her tzone and chin.🤔 even if her phone camera setting was on auto, I think the white balance was maybe thrown off by a "dark" background(being in the dark) I hope all that makes sense lol
DRY SKIN: still works!☺️. I have dry skin & looks great! I saw it on a short on RU-vid a few weeks ago. OMG amazing. I’ve had a lot of ppl compliment my makeup. IMPORTANT: hack I learned is THIN layer of powder, then prime on top. For dry skin, use a hydrating primer . I use “Georgio Arman luminous silk.” I tried hack on 1/2 of my face, & not on the other 1/2, big difference! I also used Laura merciier powder & drug store, both worked great.
