Have you ever felt like your makeup looks better in the middle of the day than when you first put it on? Well, you’re not alone, as there's now a name for that trend: “Lived-in” makeup.
Makeup that has fully settled in radiates a natural skin texture, helping achieve that effortlessly dewy glow. Your makeup looks slightly messier, but that’s actually what gives the look its charm of "lived-in" makeup.
Content creators on Tiktok have been trying to recreate that midday makeup look, and the results are actually quite chic. It’s a simple, kind of messy, barely-there look that feels tailor-made for summer and the humid climate of the Philippines.
Not yet entirely sold on the trend? Here are some celebrities we spotted who give off that “lived-in” makeup vibe:

2. Foundation and concealer
Apply a light layer of foundation and concealer that allows your natural skin texture and freckles to peek through while balancing out your skin tone. The Issy Active Skin Tint and Concealer can help you achieve that "your skin but better" look.
Use a cream or liquid contour such as the GRWM CosmeticsRadiance Tint Multiuse Base in the Honey shade to get that snatched look. To avoid harsh lines, make sure to blend it well with a beauty blender.

4. Sunkissed blush

5. Blotted lips
For the "lived in" lips effect, apply Sunnies Face Fluffbalm. Otherwise, take a regular lipstick, dab it on the center of your lips, and spread it out with your finger to create a natural, slightly faded lip tint.
Groom your eyebrows with a brow gel and lightly fill any sparse areas using an eyebrow pencil. Try the Ever BilenaBrow Serum Duo to achieve perfectly groomed brows.
