We've all seen women who just plaster their makeup on,
looking more like a mannequin than an actual person. If you would rather have a Natural Look Makeup, you don`t need to go completely bare, it`s all in how you
choose and apply your makeup. Here you`ll learn a few tips to keep your face
glowing and lovely without resorting to heavy handed techniques. The trick is
to keep it light and to highlight just one area of your face, your eyes or your
mouth.
Coverage
When it comes to concealer and foundation, many women tend
to cake it on in an attempt to hide blemishes. That tends to result in the
cracked face issues that occur a little later in the day. By using the
following tips, you can make your face look natural while still covering up
those spots and blemishes.
- Opt for tinted moisturizer, it blends and evens out the
skin while moisturizing and is so thin that it`s literally unnoticeable.
- For heavier coverage, use concealer chosen to blend with your skin to dot
over spots and then finish the face with a tinted moisturizer for a lighter
look.
- Concealers with yellow undertones tend to hide blemishes best.
Eyes
Your eyes are one of the first things people notice, so the
last thing you want is for them to focus on how much makeup you`re using!
- For long lashes, consider using clear mascara to give them volume without
adding too much.
- Use foundation lightly applied to your lids for a natural boost. This also
brightens the eyes and lays an even foundation for any shadow you wish to
apply.
- Choose eye shadows that enhance your eye color, blue or green eyes look
smoking with pink or brown shadows and brown eyes work well with darker plum
shades.
- When using eyeliner, stay away from black and unnatural shades. Opt for brown
or charcoal grey instead and blend slightly to create a natural line.
Lips
Lips don`t have to be bright to be noticeable. If you want
your mouth to stand out, but still aim to use natural looking makeup, leave
your eyes simple and focus the color on your mouth.
- Avoid glittery or super glossy lipstick, which looks very
made up.
- To choose the appropriate color, bite your lips gently to see what color
comes up. Match the lipstick color to this.
- Make your color last longer with a clear lip gloss to set it.
- For days when you want your eyes to be the focus, stick to just a transparent
gloss for your lips and let your natural color shine.
Cheeks
Blush should give the impression that you`ve just jogged
half a mile, with a natural glow spreading over the cheekbones. Be sure you
choose the right colors and don`t overdo it, the attention should be drawn to
your eyes or lips, not your cheekbones.
- Check your cheek color after a bit of exercise to choose
the right blush. Alternatively, you can just pinch them to bring up the color,
but this won`t tell you where the blush should be applied.
- Apply blush in the same areas that you naturally color when exercising for a
truly natural looking makeup.
- Keep it light. You just want a dusting of color, nothing too obvious.
