Learn Katie Jane Hughes’s Sweat-Defying Hack for Dewy Skin

To me, Katie Jane Hughes is more than a celebrity makeup artist—I’m officially appointing her to Director of Dewy Skin. A well-hydrated beat is her MO, after all, and she somehow nails *just* the right amount of shine using minimal product. Her immaculate yet approachable techniques are the ones I often feel most confident replicating for my own daily looks.

So imagine my surprise when I attended a virtual masterclass with the queen of dewy skin herself and found out it was centered around setting powder. Um, isn’t powder known for mattifying oil and thus dulling your shine? It turns out I couldn’t have been more wrong. (Phew!) Keep scrolling for the genius dewy skin tip I learned from Hughes. If perfectly luminous skin is on your mood board like it is mine, I promise you it’s worth your while!

First thing’s first: The powder you choose can totally influence your dewy results. Hughes demonstrates her routine using Tower 28’s new GetSet Pressed Powder, a breathable, pore-blurring formula infused with hydrophobic silica to gently wick away sweat. It comes in four shades—a translucent, deep, and brightening pink and yellow—and like all of Tower 28’s offerings, it’s safe for sensitive skin. I personally used the pink shade since the hue can brighten under-eye circles and neutralizes dark, greenish tones, while Hughes used the translucent version.
