Think skin-focused makeup: soft matte base, barely-there eyeshadow, wispy lashes with just the right wash of color on the cheeks and lips. But is there more than one way to wear the coveted makeup look? According to Kathryn, there is. With her proficiency with the beauty format, she has shown how to wear her daytime signature in more ways than one. Ahead, we curated her best entries with some insider tips on how to achieve it.
The tint benefit
It’s undeniable that every beauty girl has a perennial staple in their beauty library. And as for Bernardo? It’s tints. It’s a foolproof way to add the right flush of pigment on the cheeks and lips. Most formulas are also relatively lightweight and buildable, the kind that settles into a natural-looking finish. Pro tip: Achieve the same monochromatic daytime look by swiping the same shade of multi-tasking tint on the eyes, lips, and cheeks.
Pink lips, anyone?
The combination of a daytime makeup look and pink lips is nothing short of chic—just take a cue from Kath herself. Oscillating between tints and mattes, the actress often opts for a swipe of a rose-colored lipstick to achieve a more romantic look. Pro tip: Looking for the perfect eye-lip makeup pairing? Do it her way. Keep the eye look pared-down with a barely-there eyeshadow and a swish of mascara. Elsewhere, swipe on a more saturated pink on the lips for the right statement.
The bronze appeal
The sunkissed glow has always been omnipresent throughout the actress’ beauty journey. But as years passed, she has found a way to upgrade her soft-glam signature into something that can be worn everyday. The secret to achieving the look? Underpainting method. Pro tip: Strategically place and blend the cream bronzer into your key points before applying foundation. Once accomplished, gently swish a powder bronzer format to the same areas.
