When you’ve spent 25 years painting the faces of Gisele Bündchen, Miranda Kerr, and Sofia Richie, you learn a thing or two about what makeup products are worth the hype.
This week on The Formula, renowned makeup artist Michael Brown joins Kelly to peel back the curtain on his iconic pro kit. Michael lets us in on why he’s moved away from heavy powders and high-end foundations in favour of "velvet blurring" and affordable chemist finds (including a $10 root touch-up trick).
Plus, we tackle the ultimate Australian beauty dilemma: how to keep your hair and makeup from melting when it’s 95% humidity. Michael shares the exact "barrier" method he uses to prep celeb skin and the "Dream" hair product that kept JLo’s hair perfect during the Super Bowl.
