1. Double cleanse your skin: Start with a thorough cleansing using micellar water or an oil-based cleanser to remove makeup and sunscreen. Follow up with a hydrating face wash for a clean and hydrated canvas. Don't forget to use two serums and an oil base moisturizer to prep skin. 

2. Use an airbrush machine or blow-dryer to apply makeup foundation: Many tutorials are showing how to apply 3-4 layers of makeup using airbrush machines or a blow dryer. 

3. Freeman Cucumber Peel Off Face Mask:  Incorporate a water-based essence containing ingredients like water, glycerin, and hyaluronic acid to provide deep hydration and support overall skin health.

4. Use Kryolan for Glass Skin: Beauty rumors are suspecting that Pat Mcgrath and her team of experts used Kryolan to achieve the 'glass skin' finish.
