How to (fake) the No Makeup Look!
1. Instead of your normal foundation, apply a BB Cream, Tinted Moisturizer, or Tinted Sunscreen instead. Taking good care of your skin is an essential precursor to this.
Try: Garnier BB Cream, Jouer Luminizing Moisture Tint, or MAD Skincare Tinted Sunscreen
2. Apply a blush that is very close to your natural cheek color or just apply a very soft blush. One easy way to figure this out is to pinch your cheeks and pick a color that mirrors that normal blush color. I used the Body Shop Blush in 04 Golden Pink. Try this blush or a Maybelline Bouncy Blush for a hint of color.
3. Apply a tinted lip balm, tinted chapstick or Revlon lip butter that best matches your natural lip color. I used Revlon Lip Butter in Berry Smoothie and I applied this very lightly. Try this or Burts Bees Tinted Lip Balm or Maybelline Baby Balm.
4. Apply just 1 coat of mascara. Try Rimmel Lash Accelerator or Tarte Lights Camera Lashes.
5. Line just the very outer top and bottom lash lines, ie the "V area" where the lash lines come together with a dark but flattering color to compliment your eye color. I used Urban Decay's Crash which is a deep plum. Try this or Stila Blue Ribbon (navy blue) or Urban Decay Rockstar (dark eggplant) or Underground (metallic taupe).
6. Optional: Using a fluffy powder brush, lightly sweep a light matte bronzer all over your face and neck area. Try: Too Faced Chocolate Soleil or NYC Sunny or Tarte Park Avenue Princess.
7. Wear a bright color that compliments your skin tone!
This can pretty much be done in 5 minutes and you can leave the house looking like you aren't wearing makeup, and we can keep this our little secret. :)
Yours in Beauty,
