6 Tips to Get a Minimalist “No-Makeup” Look With Your Travel Size Makeup
At Subtl Beauty, we believe that among the millions of makeup trends out there, there’s one that'll never go out of style: minimalistic makeup. Given that our trusty Starter Stak can help you achieve both minimalist and full-glam moments, we thought it would be fun to explore how to use your travel size makeup for one of our daily go-to looks — the 'no makeup, makeup' look.
Here’s more about us, Subtl Beauty, and our travel size makeup Starter Stak. Plus – keep reading after the video to find out the steps to our favorite minimalistic routine:
Make Sure to Always Do Skincare Before Applying Your Travel Size Makeup
Not included in your travel size makeup Starter Stak is skincare, but hey – that’s a venture we might tackle one day. For now, let's go over why starting with skincare matters. MUA Jason Hoffman says: “Proper skin care is a must. The skin should be hydrated, which will enhance any product you use. Well-prepped skin gives you a beautiful glow and helps you use less product.”
Check out our skincare recommendations to use before your travel size makeup Starter Stak:
- The MOX Starter Set cleanses, softens, exfoliates, and much more
- e.l.f’s Power Grip Primer extends your makeup’s wear time and helps it stick to your skin
- The Essence Volume Lash Primer boosts your normal mascara’s volume benefits

Try a Sculpt and Tone Tool Before Applying Your Travel Size Makeup
If you haven’t joined the skin tool/face massage movement, then hear us out: Gua shas and ice rollers are game-changers, just like the innovative Subtl Beauty Starter Stak. Studies have shown that facial massages using tools like a gua sha can alleviate stress, improve circulation, relax both your mind and body, and reduce the appearance of wrinkles by boosting collagen.
Check out our skin tool recommendations to use before your travel size makeup Starter Stak:
- The Blunt Skincare Rolling Stone Gua Sha because it’s cute and beneficial, obviously
- The IMEASY Customizable Ice Roller because jazzing up your ice with herbs is fun
Apply the Concealer in Your Travel Size Makeup
It’s time for your travel size makeup, so grab your Subtl Starter Stak’s Cream Concealer. According to Alexx Mayo, Lizzo’s makeup artist, reflecting on what minimal means to you is crucial before application. They emphasize that coverage is subjective; what's full coverage to one person could be sheer to another. In other words, cover the areas you think need it.
For those wanting a bit more information on our Cream Concealer, it’s transformative, versatile, lightweight, and long-lasting. Infused with Coffee Seed Oil, it's perfect for reducing puffiness during long layovers or busy mom mornings. We offer a choice of nineteen shades to go with your Starter Stak, and if it’s not a perfect match, we’ll replace it for free!
Take a look at this Subtl Beauty who replaced her foundation with our Cream Concealer entirely:
Add a Gentle Wash of Color With Your Travel Size Makeup
While optional (though we can’t fathom why you’d say no to a dash of color), now's the time to infuse some liveliness into your face with our travel size makeup Lip & Cheek in Terracotta Tour Guide. Boasting the perfect buttery consistency, it lasts all day, requiring no touch-ups. To get a trendy flush, apply it to the tip of your nose, the middle of your chin, your cheeks, and your lips.
Interested in a more in-depth look at our Lip and Cheek in Terracotta Tour Guide? This versatile and multifunctional product is a velvety 2-in-1 powerhouse, ensuring a flawless finish that lasts all day. Available in four stunning shades tailored to complement your skin tone and style, a few finger taps are all you need to add a dash of color to your look, no matter where you are.
If Terracotta Tour Guide isn’t your aesthetic, check out our other Lip & Cheek shades that you can add to your Starter Stak:

Set Your Look With Your Travel Size Makeup
The Subtl Beauty travel size makeup Shine Control Pressed Powder (another key feature of the Starter Stak) is sure to become your BFF. If you haven’t used a translucent powder before, listen to this easy application tip from MUA Kate Mellinger: "Product is always denser the first place you lay it on your face, so starting on your forehead, nose, and chin is super useful.”
Can we give our Shine Control Powder some praise? Not only is it an everyday, minimalist game-changer, but if you’re traveling in 2024 to warmer destinations, it expertly keeps oil at bay. Unlike a lot of other translucent powders on the market, ours is lightweight, cake-free, sets your makeup in place, and will last nearly as long as an entire plane ride across the globe.
Here is a Subtl Beauty with and without our Shine Control Pressed Powder to show you how it works:
