How to Apply Makeup for a Natural Look

 

 

Don’t look scary after applying your make-up. A fresh and natural face is always in style. Don’t over-paint (or don’t apply excessively) your face always, the ‘natural look’ style of applying make-up on your face will be perfect for you. With a little bit of time and practice, you’ll get the sweet natural look you’ll always admire.

Applying Makeup to Your Face:

Clean your face of any previous makeup. Put makeup remover or water on a cotton ball. Dab or rub the cotton ball in small circles to remove old makeup. Determine your skin type and cleanse, tone and moisturize with suitable products twice daily. If you have skin problems like spots or blackheads, exfoliate your skin.

For a more natural look, instead of using foundation, use a tinted moisturizer. Tinted moisturizers blend in while evening out your skin tone and commonly contain SPF (Sun Protection Factor). Apply concealer to any blemishes and around your eyes. Applying your concealer before foundation helps keep foundation to a minimal amount. Make sure this is the exact same color as your skin. When you apply the concealer, do so directly on the spot and not around it. This is to avoid a halo effect and emphasis of the spot. Be careful not to overdo it on the concealer; you only need enough to cover the spot.
Apply a powder foundation on the oilier parts of your face. Before you start, it’s best to determine whether or not you’re using the right foundation color. Get in a natural light and test the foundation to make sure it’s the right color for your skin. Dab a few marks on your cheek and angle your face different ways to see if the color matches. Take your finger or a sponge dab in the foundation, and dab it on your face, blending it until it looks like your skin tone.
Be sure to go underneath your jaw line; if you stop at the edge of your face, there will be a clear line where the foundation ends, making it look like you’re wearing a mask. If you have bags or discoloration under your eyes, make three dots on the line of the circles under your eyes. Blend it gently using your ring finger. Apply Bronzer, some people wait until after they have applied makeup to their eyes to add bronzer or blush. Bronzer is a great way to give yourself a natural glow. Lightly brush bronzer all over your face or just along your cheekbones and T-Zone for a natural suntan appearance. However, bronzer can look silly on people with pale skin if applied incorrectly.
 Like we say “Practice makes Perfect” practice at home with bronzer to see if it looks good on you before going out with it on. If you don’t like the way it looks, skip it. Apply Blush. If you were not happy with bronzer, you can apply blush instead. Creme blush generally works better than powder because it gives you a dewy look and lasts longer. Rub a little on your ring finger and blend onto your cheekbones. Note that you should not apply both blush and bronzer, choose one. And what next? You’re good to go girl! On that make-up but quite natural look.
