*a bit baffled by 'baking'? huda's ingenious 'insta glossary' describes it as applying a thick coat of translucent powder over your foundation in areas you want to look the brightest (often underneath eyes, along your jawline and down the center of your nose) letting it sit for 3-5 minutes then dusting it off with a clean, fluffy brush.

prep your skin with a moisturizer or primer. apply concealer under the eye. flip the jar upside down and tap the base twice to release powder:

apply a generous layer of powder under the eye, t-zone, laugh lines, outer corners of the mouth, and chin.

let powder bake for 3 to 5 minutes.

gently dust away excess powder.

other suggestions for use:

- apply a light amount of powder all over your face to remove shine and set any liquid formulas applied.

- use throughout the day to touch up, and control shine without the cake.
