Celebrity beauty guru Sara Hill has just pioneered a makeup look that is set to take 2019 by storm. She calls it the "Yoga Skin" look. It's designed to make you look as fresh and as clean as though you've just stepped out of the yoga studio. Not sweaty. Just glowing and natural appearing skin!
To get in on this hot new trend, try these tips:
1. Using your favorite cleanser, clean and prep your skin as normal.
2. Apply a small amount of silicon-free primer and allow it to sink into your skin.
3. Into a small makeup pot or bowl, put 3-4 pumps of a water-based sheer to medium foundation.
4. Add in one drop of your favorite facial oil.
5. Add in one drop of liquid highlighter.
7. Mix this into the bottle by shaking it up, and then massage this mix into your face with your hands. Don't use a brush. You'll want to use your hands to get your circulation going and help your base sit more evenly.

How To Get Glowing Skin Without Makeup
Now you know how to get that "fresh out of the yoga studio" look with your makeup. But what if you could do it without makeup? Here are some tips for healthy, glowing natural skin.
Stay Hydrated
Our skin maintains a natural and healthy glow through elasticity, and it keeps elastic when it's hydrated. Dry skin is thin and shows up fine lines and wrinkles more clearly. Make sure you drink enough water and eat hydrating fruits and vegetables to keep your skin healthy.
Eat More Iron-Rich Foods
Iron is well known for promoting healthy skin. Eating spinach, dark green vegetables, beans, and other iron-rich vegetables and meats can help you with healthy, hydrated skin. Not only does it help with hydration, but it can help with pimples, discoloration, and a host of other skin problems.
Regular Exercise
They call it yoga skin for a reason! Regular exercise improves circulation and helps keep your skin healthy all over. Try facial yoga stretches to keep your face elastic and lower the visibility of stress lines and keep your skin healthy and glowing.
Coconut Oil
A great natural treatment for your skin is coconut oil. Applying virgin coconut oil to your face and neck and leaving it in overnight will help keep your skin hydrated and healthy. It also helps give you an even base for your makeup.
Healthy Fats In Your Diet
It may sound counterproductive, but adding healthy fats to your diet can help your skin stay healthy and even-toned. Greasy, processed fats are not good for your skin, but healthy fat that cuts down on the stress hormone in your body can help you maintain healthy, glowing skin. Avocados, olive oil, eggs, and fatty cuts of meat can actually help keep you healthy. If you find your diet lacking in healthy fats, Omega-3 vitamins can help.
Prevention Is Key
Never underestimate the power of prevention. That means protecting your skin whether it's sunny, cloudy, or snow outside. Harmful UV rays can really do a number on your skin, more than most people even realize. The problem is no one has time to put sunscreen on every two hours as recommended. This is where ZINC IT OVER® Sunscreen Facial Mist comes in! It's small enough to put in your purse so you can reapply right over your makeup and with no white cast. And don't worry, it's natural ingredients are packed with antioxidants to keep your skin moisturized, refreshed, and glowing.
"Yoga Skin" is a great way to get a healthy, just-out-of-the-gym glow to your skin with your makeup. If you want to find a way to give yourself that same glow without makeup, diet, exercise, and sun protection can help keep your skin healthy and energized.
