Back-to-School Makeup Basics: Simple Works Best


Faze makeup artist Sophia Whyte says, “Keep it simple.”

When you’re applying your makeup in the morning you should be enhancing what you have, not trying to create a new person. This season, once again, “Less is more,” she says. “You shouldn’t need a lot of time to put on your makeup when you’re going to school. What you need should be able to fit into a pencil case.”
