What do the snatched makeup aesthetic and Alex Consani have in common? 2024 was undoubtedly both of their years. Having headlined runways for some of the hottest designers in the world, amassing over five million followers across her social media platforms and becoming the first transgender woman to be crowned Model of the Year, Consani took the modeling world by storm this year, and we can’t get enough.
You’d assume that walking runways and participating in all those high-fashion shoots makes one proficient at nailing their makeup routine. Consani’s “Beauty Secrets” video for Vogue affirmed that thought. While giving viewers an in-depth tutorial on her classic, smokey glam look, the model detailed her sure-fire routine for snatching your face with contour, and we are all taking notes.
Alex Consani’s Bronzer Hack for the Perfect Snatched Look
When we think of bronzer and creating a model-like visage, we typically go right to the cheekbones. But, as Consani showed in her Beauty Secrets video, the secret to really locking down that suctioned-up look is to apply product around the cheekbones as opposed to right on them.
As Consani depicts in the TikTok above, applying bronzer with a fluffy brush just below the cheekbone and right above—starting about where the eye begins and buffing up to above the brow—helps give that “feline, snatched mug,” as she so eloquently describes it. New Year, new contour routine!
