How to Get a 5-Minute French Girl Makeup Look

If French women are known for one attribute, it’s their beautiful, healthy skin. French girls don’t load on the powder or wield a contouring brush like a baseball bat. They prefer a natural approach that lets your natural skin shine through… with a few minor corrections, of course.

This morning makeup routine with French beauty and fashion vlogger Justine Leconte will show you how to get that easy, breezy French girl look in five minutes (well, actually eight). At the end, it doesn’t even look like Leconte is wearing makeup, but she still looks healthy and put-together. Where to start, except with sunscreen? Protection is always key. Followed by a BB cream (no foundation!), a little under-eye concealer, and the most toned-down version of contouring you’ve ever seen.
