Gaya

You know we had a little chit-chat with the gorgeous <a href="https://aura.ng/culture/the-busayo-element-turning-authenticity-into-creative-currency">Busayo Joan</a>. But what you might not know is that we also stole her recipe for gorgeousness. We asked for the makeup brands and products she swears by, and guess what? The once-upon-a-time makeup artist gave us everything you'll—especially the girls with<a href="https://aura.ng/beauty/everything-actually-worth-adding-to-your-skincare-routine-in-2026"> skin</a> problems—need for a flawless look. These were her responses and our guide on how to utilise them:

Start with AA Beauty Foundation. Apply evenly across the face. Blend into your hairline and down your neck. This forms the even-toned base for everything else.

Next, use LA Girl Concealer. Apply under your eyes, at the centre of your forehead, on the bridge of your nose, and on your chin. Rub it in properly for a highlighted effect. The goal is to conceal darker pigmentations that the foundation isn't hiding enough.

Use the Zikel Powder Palette to blend out foundation and concealer where necessary. The powder balances out that matte and polished look that is neither too bright nor unfinished.

<b>3. LA Girl Pro Makeup Holding Spray</b>

Wrap up with the LA Girl Pro Makeup Holding Spray. Spray evenly across your face and let it dry naturally. This is your guarantee that your makeup will remain perfect until you're ready to take it off.

As a bonus, for a pop, Busayo highly recommended Fenty Lip Stains. Apply directly to the lips in small quantities. Available in any colour of your choice, it won’t come off so easily and give the right contrast your lips need to make your look unforgettable.

Voila, you're good to go! This is how you can temporarily hide flawed skin…while you keep looking for a permanent solution to <a href="https://aura.ng/beauty/beauty-in-2026-how-to-curate-your-own-standards-and-choose-yourself">hyperpigmentation</a>. And please, stop touching your face.
