No-makeup makeup gives a soft and subtle freshness in looks while allowing the natural one to shine out. No-makeup makeup literally deals with very light coverage that gives a healthy glow and undramatic enhancing that leaves someone looking perfectly set up without it being cakey. Whether it's going to work, running errands with friends, or you're looking for a no-makeup, low-maintenance look for a more casual daily approach, no-makeup makeup is here to revolutionize your face.
This
tutorial breaks down the details you'll want to cover and master for achieving
your perfect no-makeup makeup look:
Step 1: Skincare – The foundation of a natural look
First and
foremost, the skin needs to be prepared. It is hydrated, healthy-looking skin
that really makes a difference in making a base as healthy as possible.
Clean Skin
Gently
wash your face with a cleaner suited to your skin type to remove dirt, oils,
and impurities and get a clean slate on which to lay makeup.
Exfoliate for That Perfect Base
Dead skin
cells exfoliate and clear; makeup feels smoother over the skin. For that
radiant glow, gentle exfoliation can be used 2 to 3 times a week.
Moisturize
Light moisturizer is sufficient for elastic skin. Moisturized face helps in applying makeup smoothly with no visible dry spots.
Apply Sunscreen
It's still
good enough to be used for no-makeup makeup. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or
higher for maximum protection against UV rays.
Step 2: The Base
The
no-makeup makeup look is all about getting an extremely natural-looking base.
It's all about evening out your complexion without looking heavy and caked.
Lightweight Foundations or Tinted Moisturizers
Tinted
moisturizer, BB cream, or light-coverage foundation instead of heavy
foundation. All of them give a smooth finish with no cakey feel.
Spot Conceal for a Natural Finish
Make use
not of a thick layer of concealer over your face, put it on the areas where it
is needed-around the eyes, close to the nose, or to skin imperfections. Blend
in with a wet sponge or the pads of your fingers.
Finish with a Light-Weight Powder (optional)
For oily
skin, a light dusting of translucent powder over your makeup will help remove
that excess shine especially on the T-zone.
Step 3: Defining Your Features
While
minimal makeup means you do not have to emphasize, subtle definition is what
can help you move from looking fresh and natural to unhealthy. Define Your
Brows
Well-groomed
eyebrows frame is the sweet framing of face. Outline sparse spaces that are not
too shaggy to notice, coloured gel, or even the fine point.
Eye Soft Makeup
This
provides the eyelid with additional dimension through use of lightweight
eyeshadows soft in tone and available in neutral colours. Make them less
aggressive by using lengthening brown. Shake the mascara at end lashes to try
lifting your up from the bottom.
Eyeliner
(optional): A brown or nude eyeliner can be used to line the lash line for a
very soft definition.
Apply a natural flush of blush:
A cream
blush gives that healthy, flushed look that just melts into your skin. This can
be applied to the apples of the cheek and then just layered around and fades
outwards for a soft look.
Soft contour and highlight
Apply
cream bronzer and lightly contour all the pointed features of your face such as
cheekbones, brows or nose bridges with some liquid highlighters to give that
slight glow.
Step 4: The Lips
Stick to
nude shades on your lips which is to say, use shades that complement the colour
of your lips.
Lip Balm
Moisturising
lip balm to make your mouth stand out and keep your lips moistened.
Lip Liner for Definition (Optional)
If you
want a lip look more defined, then do so with a lip liner that gets as close as
can be to matching your natural colour, but slightly blur it over.
Step 5: Lock It In
So it all
lasts throughout the day, I'll set the look with the setting spray:
Light in
weight setting spray keeps that skin looking healthy and hydrated despite the
longevity it provides-but not heavy in one place or ashy in others.
