3 soft glam makeup looks to try with a subtl stak

soft glam makeup is the best and easiest trend for those wanting to look put-together while on a time crunch (it's especially perfect for the holiday season!). makeup newbies, here’s the gist: soft glam makeup is all about a natural, polished look – think glowing skin, soft travel size makeup hues, and just enough definition to highlight your features without looking too glitzed up. 

soft glam makeup gives you a full-glam look with fewer, more strategic steps, making it accessible for pros and beginners alike. here’s 3 soft glam makeup looks from some of our favorite celebs to recreate with a subtl beauty stak:

soft glam makeup looks to try with a subtl stak: rihanna

to get rihanna’s soft glam makeup look with your travel size makeup, here’s what you’ll need:  bronzer powder, cream concealer, lip and cheek tint in passport to plum, powder blush in daytrip at dawn, powder highlighter makeup in gin fizz, eyeshadow duo in takeoff, 3-in-1 brow bff, translucent shine control pressed powder

to get rihanna’s soft glam makeup look with your travel size makeup, here’s what you’ll need:

follow these steps with your subtl stak to slay rihanna’s soft glam makeup look:

  1. with your travel size makeup kit, find and unstak your cream concealer because its lightweight formula can double as a foundation (check out the tutorial here). we’ve infused our cream concealer with coffee seed oil, a skin-loving ingredient that’s pro at reducing puffiness.
  2. this is where you can do any bronzer vs contour steps that are in your routine. if you’re new to bronzer vs contour, check out this guide to teach you what the difference is.
  3. define your brows with subtl’s 3-in-1 brow bff to replicate rihanna’s soft glam makeup look. this multitasking tool is next-level for shaping brows on the go with its built-in spoolie, creamy pencil, and locking gel – a true all-in-one brow solution.
  4. grab subtl’s powder highlighter makeup in gin fizz. for the beginners needing pro tips on subtl’s highlighter makeup, check out our guide on what it does and where to apply it.
  5. use the travel size makeup 4-piece brush set with our eyeshadow duo in takeoff. apply the shimmer to your lid then buff the warm matte into your crease. note: in rihanna’s soft glam makeup look, she finishes by adding a dash of highlighter makeup under her brow bone.
  6. with subtl’s powder blush in daytrip at dawn and our best travel blush brush (also dubbed the stak brush bff), blend the pigment upwards onto the apples of your cheeks and out.
  7. for riri’s lips, you’ll need the lip and cheek tint in passport to plum. she uses a light layer in this soft glam makeup look, so dab a small amount and blend (you can also add a topcoat of vegan lip balm for extra shine). 
  8. to lock your soft glam makeup look in place, apply translucent shine control pressed powder.

  • “a little over a year ago i was scrolling social media and rachel’s beautiful face appeared showing a stak of makeup. it was simple, had great colors, and was super affordable. i was looking for new makeup. something that showcased my skin and how hard i’ve worked to make it healthy. enter my first purchase with subtl beauty. the stak i purchased had a concealer, lip & cheek, and bronzer in it. i’ve been a subtl customer for a year now and have never looked back.” - denisa r. 
  • “the new stak is such an upgrade! the cream concealer is hands down the best i’ve tried (no creasing or caking on my dry under eyes and it lasts all day) and hibiscus highway lip and cheek tint is the shade i never knew i needed. even the highlighter makeup has been improved, and i wear it every day now. i really believe in this company, i respect their mission and how they listen to their customers and continue to improve. subtl fan for life here!" - mollie b.
  • “wow! i absolutely love this starter stak. i appreciated being able to choose the lip & cheek tint color in addition to the cream concealer. the colors are perfect and the quality of the products are fantastic. i have fairly sensitive skin and my pore get blocked easily. i have had zero issues with breakouts or sensitivity issues when using these products. this starter stak is now my go to makeup products. it's completely changed my make up routine for the better. thank you!” - amy
