As a drag queen, having a flawless makeup look is essential for slaying the stage and turning heads. But achieving that perfect canvas starts long before the first swipe of foundation. Proper skincare is the key to ensuring your makeup application is smooth, long-lasting, and camera-ready.
At The Drag Queen Store, we know a thing or two about drag queen beauty. That's why we're sharing our top skincare tips to help you prep your skin for a killer drag look.
Cleanse and Exfoliate
The first step in any good skincare routine is cleansing. Start by using a gentle, non-drying cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, or impurities from the skin. Follow up with a weekly exfoliating scrub to slough off dead skin cells and reveal a brighter, more radiant complexion.
Our top picks? The Drag Queen Detox Charcoal Cleanser and the Slay Everyday Exfoliating Scrub. These products are specifically formulated for the unique needs of drag performers, helping to keep skin clear and prepped for a flawless makeup application.
Hydrate and Nourish
Once your skin is clean, it's time to hydrate and nourish. Look for a moisturizer that's packed with skin-loving ingredients like hyaluronic acid, vitamin C, and niacinamide. These powerhouse ingredients will help plump, brighten, and even out your skin tone for a smooth, makeup-ready base.
We recommend the Drag Queen Glow Getter Moisturizer. This rich, creamy formula absorbs quickly without leaving a greasy residue, so your makeup will glide on seamlessly.
Prime and Protect
The final step in your drag queen skincare routine is priming and protecting. Start by applying a pore-minimizing primer to create a smooth, even canvas for your makeup. Then, don't forget to slather on some SPF to keep your skin safe from harmful UV rays.
Our go-to products? The Flawless AF Primer and the Drag Queen Sunscreen. These essentials will help your makeup last all night long, while also keeping your skin healthy and radiant.
Remember, taking the time to properly prep your skin is the key to achieving a flawless drag look. So, grab your favorite products from The Drag Queen Store and get ready to slay all day (and night)!
