Porcelain makeup refers to makeup products and techniques that are used to create a very pale, translucent complexion. This look is often associated with doll-like or ethereal beauty and is achieved by using light-colored foundation, powder, and concealer, as well as highlighting and contouring to create the illusion of a smooth, flawless complexion. Porcelain makeup can be used in both everyday makeup looks as well as in more dramatic or theatrical settings.
