"Hi, I'm Kim with Simply Beautiful in Austin, Texas. Let me show you how to touch up your make-up. Just going to do it really quickly, just a light touch-up. So we're going to do just some of our basic steps. We're going to take a little concealer, pat it under my eyes just to brighten the face a little bit. It's been a long day, had a long day. Maybe your eyes look a little tired. So a little concealer underneath patted on. Take your powder. This is a powder foundation from Lancome called Dual Finish, love it. On a brush because you don't want too much on. Sweep it around your face, it's going to give you a little light foundation. Now I don't generally re-apply eye shadow, but I love to put my eyeliner on again. So just go over your liner, deepen it just a little bit, top and bottom. Just give yourself that fresh look once again. And just using the same brush you used with your powder, just want to pick a, pick a blush. Generally when we're touching up, you might need a little extra color than you used in the morning. So but if you have your blush in your make-up bag so just starting in the apple of your cheek, not too much, blending, blending, forehead, nose, cheeks, chin. And because we want to sparkle and we want to shine when we're touching up our make-up, we're going to use a little gloss rather than lipstick. We're going to use gloss. And again, later in the day you want to touch it up, the more color you might want because if you're feeling tired, a little color is a great pick me up. So a little concealer, a little powder foundation, a little blush, a little eyeliner for extra definition, and a little gloss and you're good to go."
