If you love effortless and natural-looking makeup, Alexa Ilacad has all the beauty inspo you'll need. ICYDK, this 21-year-old actress actually did a lot of makeup tutorials on YouTube in her mid-teen years. It's been a while since her last beauty-related upload, so we were totally thrilled when she posted her updated makeup routine on Instagram yesterday!
Here's an easy step-by-step guide on how she achieves her youthful and effortless makeup look:
1. Prep with skincare.
Alexa stresses the importance of taking care of your skin first since that will serve as the base of your makeup. She uses Belo Acne Pro Pimple Patches to cover and protect inflamed spots from further irritation.
2. Go with tinted sunscreen.
To keep the look light and natural, Alexa skips foundation and goes for tinted sunscreen instead. Her personal favorite is Belo Sun Expert Tinted Sunscreen, which is actually what she wore during PBB filmings!

3. Fill in your brows.
Alexa is already blessed with thick brows, so she just lightly fills in her arches with a brow pencil. Set with a brow gel to ensure all-day hold.
4. Add definition with a bronzer.
Alexa uses a cream bronzer to give warmth to her overall look and further sculpt her facial features. Her tip: Sweep some of the pigment across your eyelids to tie the whole look together.
5. Brighten up your eyes.
With black liquid eyeliner, she draws on her signature wing along her upper lash line. She tops it off by curling her lashes and coating them with mascara.
6. Go for a naturally-flushed, sun-kissed glow.
Apply cream or liquid blush to the high part of your cheekbones to mimic Alexa's sun-kissed glow. Blend with a stippling brush and clean up the rest of your base with your favorite concealer.

7. Finish with a rosy nude lip.
Lastly, define your lips with a nude lip liner and follow with an MLBB lippie. Alexa focuses the product on the outer parts of her bottom lip to get a sheer wash of color that's almost gradient.
