Glowing Skin & Clean Girl Glam with Georgia Caine
Georgia Caine makeup by Vanessa Barney
Glam Breakdown at the bottom of the page.
On Friday, I had the absolute pleasure of glamming the gorgeous and incredibly kind Georgia Caine. Georgia was visiting from Melbourne, and since we’ve worked together before, I was so happy we could line up our schedules again.
She requested a soft and timeless clean girl makeup look think radiant skin, a wing, and just the right amount of glow. I was gifted the new Benefit Glow-La-La highlighter and this was the perfect opportunity to use it.
Let me tell you — this highlighter delivers. Glow-La-La is a silky-soft powder with the most stunning high-sheen payoff. It glides effortlessly onto the cheekbones and gives that gleaming, light-reflecting finish we all love.
The secret?
A hybrid formula made with finely milled powders combined with nourishing oils and gels, making it feel almost creamy while still being a powder.
I used the shade Raya, which gave Georgia that lit-from-within glow — fresh, effortless, and long-wearing.
And speaking of long-wearing, Glow-La-La ticks all the boxes:
12-hour wear.
Waterproof & humidity-proof
Transfer-proof & smudge-proof
Fade-proof
Non-comedogenic
Top tip: Sweep Glow-La-La along the cheekbones and make sure to blend the edges well. That soft diffusion is key to a seamless, skin-like glow.
Creating this look reminded me just how powerful subtle details can be — a soft wing, radiant highlight, and fresh skin never go out of style.
