From Salon Chair to Makeup Bag: How Artists Use Runway Room for Real-Life Glam

At Runway Room, our products aren’t just designed for beauty lovers—they’re crafted, tested, and perfected by the artists who use them every single day. In the salon chairs, our team transforms real clients with techniques that are uncomplicated, flattering, and completely wearable. And the best part? Every look they create can be recreated at home using the same pro-approved products.

Today, we’re taking you behind the scenes to show you exactly how our artists use Runway Room to achieve flawless, real-life glam for brides, events, and everyday radiance.

 

1. Skin Prep Is Everything — And Our Artists Never Skip It

Before any makeup touches the skin, our artists start with glow-focused prep to ensure a seamless finish.

Artist Technique:

Hydration first: A layer of First Base Primer to provide a layer of hydration to the skin and calms any problems areas, making it the perfect prep product for makeup.

For oilier T-zones, a layer of Mattifying Primer in the oily areas, before foundation helps control shine and extend wear.

This routine gives the skin that signature Runway Room glow—fresh, hydrated, and perfectly prepped for makeup.

 

2. The “Perfect Base” Method: Luminous, Long-Wearing & Realistic

Our artists use a simple but strategic base technique clients adore.

Key Products:

Face Base Luminous Foundation

Mineral Cream Concealer

Mineral Glow Sticks

Base Blur Mineral Powder

Artist Technique:

  1. Apply Luminous Foundation with a brush for an airbrushed, skin-like finish.

  2. Brighten under the eyes with Mineral Cream Concealer, always blending upward for lift.

  3. Apply our Glow Sticks, to melt into the skin first, laying down a soft, natural layer of colour and definition. 

  4. Set where needed with Base Blur, keeping the skin radiant—not flat or matte.

This is the “bridal-approved” formula: long-wearing, luminous, and comfortable in any light.

 

3. Sculpting the Face with Warm, Natural Dimension

Our teams swear by effortless definition—never harsh, never heavy.

Key Products:

Brosh

Glow Palette

Artist Technique:

Brosh across the cheeks, forehead and jawline, adds soft colour + warmth in one step, whilst also adding dimension.

Glow Palette to add flush and highlight across the cheeks

 

4. Bridal & Event Eyes: Soft, Timeless, Elevated

Our artists specialise in wearable glam—looks that still feel like you, just elevated.

Key Techniques:

Soft matte bases in taupes and warm neutrals to contour the eye.

Shimmer pressed pigments pressed onto the lid for soft radiance.

A subtle wing created with shadow or pencil liner —for a diffused, flattering lift.

Mascara + optional natural-style lashes for definition.

For brides, the focus is always longevity + timelessness. No trends, no heaviness—just beautiful eyes that look stunning in photos and in person.

 

5. The Real-Life Glow: Why Clients Keep Coming Back

One of the biggest compliments our artists hear is:

“This looks so natural—but so glam!”

 

That balance comes from our product philosophy:

Mineral-based formulas that let skin breathe.

PFAS-free, Australian-made ingredients.

Buildable textures that blend effortlessly.

Shades designed for real skin tones.

 

Whether it’s a beach bride in Sorrento, a birthday glam in Armadale, or an everyday fresh-face appointment, Runway Room products perform in heat, photos, long days, and real life.
