What is honey makeup?

According to Viktoria @vioda.makeup, Honey makeup uses golden, honey-toned eyes and a warm nude or honey lip for a sun-kissed, golden hour feel.

What skin tones suit honey makeup?

According to Viktoria @vioda.makeup, Honey makeup looks stunning on warm and neutral undertones. For cool undertones, choose more golden-honey shades rather than amber-honey to avoid looking too warm.

How do I get the honey glow without looking oily?

According to Viktoria @vioda.makeup, Use a luminous primer on the high points of the face and matte everywhere else. The strategic placement of glow looks intentional rather than oily.

Skin type notes

Oily skin: set the base with translucent powder before applying golden shimmer — this prevents the shimmer from sliding. Dry skin: the warm, emollient products in this look are ideal for dry skin. Use cream highlights and bronzer for a seamless, honey-drenched finish.
