NATURAL MAKEUP TIPS WITH LESS PRODUCTS

Makeup isn’t as difficult as you may think.

Makeup is a pretty personal thing to people. Some like it, some don’t, and some wear it because they feel like they have to. Some people like dramatic makeup, and some people like natural makeup. The variety is what makes cosmetics such a great art form. However, for the people that wear it because they feel as though they need to in order to be pretty, you are not alone. Our society has given young girls and women the idea that they need to cover their flaws, and while some people see makeup as an art form and a fun activity, a lot of girls would rather just do enough to look presentable. This article is for the women that just want a clean, fresh face that doesn’t take up too much time in their mornings.

The first step to getting a natural makeup look is to go out and buy a pack of spoolie brushes. These are basically eyelash and eyebrow combs, and they will do wonders for framing your face. If you want to take it a step further, buy an eyelash curler as well, as curled eyelashes look great even without mascara. Make sure to take the spoolie brush and brush out the eyebrow hairs neatly. To look more natural, you can brush most of the hairs upward until you reach the arch of the brow. Next you can buy a clear mascara or brow gel. This is basically a clear gel that has a spoolie brush as well, and it will hold your eyebrows in place. You can also use them on your eyelashes as a mascara as well, if you do not like regular mascara.

For face makeup, the easiest solution is to buy a BB cream. You can get some great BB creams at the drugstore for a good price, and they are designed to benefit your skin. You can use your fingers or a brush to apply this, but a brush is recommended. The next, most important step, is to buy an all-over face tint. This might sound weird, but it is actually a lipstick, cream eyeshadow, and cream blush all in one. ELF Cosmetics sells them at most Target stores for an amazing price, and they work very well. Finally, to keep your light makeup in place, you can purchase a setting spray. Nyx has setting sprays for matte finishes and dewy finishes, although dewy finishes look more natural. To use this, take the bottle and spray about 2-3 times and evenly coat your face. Let it dry for a few seconds, and voila! Your makeup look is finished!

At the end of the day, the most important step is to have a good skincare routine. You do not have to buy expensive skincare products to keep your skin healthy, but you should make sure to know your skin type and purchase your skincare products accordingly. If you have dry skin, look for products that are highly moisturizing. For oily skin, make sure to buy oil-free products. For combination skin, look for labels that say that the product is balancing for your skin. Normal skin is the easiest one! You generally won’t need to look for certain labels, but make sure your products don’t dry you out or make your face too shiny.
