How to get the faux freckles makeup look?

Step 1: 

Moisturize your face and follow your desired makeup regime.

Step 2: 

Take an eyebrow pencil that matches your skin tone and sharpen it to precision.

Start from the bridge of the nose and move towards the cheekbones. Press and twist gently for dots to mark.

Continue the process until fake freckles are placed evenly all around the nose, cheek, forehead, and chin area.

Dab in lightly the freckles with your fingertips to blend them nicely within the skin.

Step 6:

Finish off with a spritz of setting spray for the freckles to remain firm.
