Hunter Schafer's Makeup Artist Shares Her Best Beauty Tips

The Contouring Hack Hunter Schafer's Makeup Artist Swears By

Spoiler alert: Schafer already has damn good skin — or "angelic," as Ganzer put it — but there is a little prep work she does to all her clients that goes into the pre-makeup process. "When doing makeup, I almost always start with the NuFace [Mini Facial Toning Device ($199)] to awaken and sculpt the face, so I don't have to do it later with contour," she said.

That's right: you can put down the contour kit.

When you already have crystal-clear skin, you needn't smother it with foundation. Instead, "I'll use a good illuminating moisturizing primer, like Dr. Lancer Glowing Skin Perfector ($95), or the Glamglow Glowstarter Mega Illuminating Moisturizer in Nude Glow ($49)," Ganzer said. "That's enough to make her look even and glowy."

Ganzer has been working with Schafer for months already, but she still credits her makeup look for the Variety magazine event as one of her favorite moments.

"I hadn't seen what she was wearing yet, but I was packing my kit beforehand and spotted these crafting pearls and thought I could maybe incorporate them into her look," she said. "Then I showed up and saw the dress she was wearing had pearl appliqués, and the first thing she said was, 'I forgot to ask you beforehand, but do you have any pearls in your kit?,' as I was simultaneously saying, 'OMG, I brought pearls hoping you'd let me use them on you!' We both kind of laughed at that."
