What can I do to get a "Natural Look"with makeup?

Answer 1

Hi,
This system of applying makeup for a natural look is fast and easy when you get the hang of it.
STEP 1: Understand that a 'natural' look is one that uses colors that are right for your skin tone. How much you use, and where, depends on your personal style.
STEP 2: Make sure your concealer is yellow in tone since it mutes imperfections without adding color, giving your skin a natural look.
STEP 3: Apply foundation that matches your skin tone. The right foundation will seem to disappear on your face. If you are African-American, it's a good idea to have light, medium and dark shades of your foundation to allow for different gradations of color on different parts of your face.
STEP 4: Apply eye makeup in earthy tones'beige, brown, gold or plum for shadows and brown and charcoal gray for liner and mascara. Skip liner or shadow entirely if you want to keep makeup light.
STEP 5: Choose a blush color that is close to the color of your cheeks after you've exercised.

So you want to make your features pop, but you don’t want to wear a lot of makeup? No problem!

With so many new makeup lines on the market and the trends moving towards a clean soft look, the sky is the limit. Here are a few quick tips, start to finish, for a flawless, beautiful face.

Start with a sheer foundation to even out your skin tone. Tinted moisturizers are a nice way to lightly even out your skin tone without feeling and looking like you have a lot of makeup on. If you have oily skin, try a light oil-free foundation and apply it with a damp sponge for the sheerest application.

Next, apply a creme blush to the apples of your cheeks. This will give a healthy, youthful glow to the face. Peaches and pinks are colors that will give a nice glow versus browns and earthtones that will create more of a shadowed look.

After applying all you creme products, set them with a silky translucent loose powder. Instead of applying it with a brush, try using a velour powder puff and rolling your powder on. This technique will set your makeup in place without moving it around (which can happen with a brush). The puff will also give you a little more coverage.

The Eyes. Instead of using two or three levels of color on your eye, try doing a wash of color. Start with a light shimmery, satin eyeshadow all over the eye. For more depth add a complimentary color over the lid to the crease. Finish with a dark brown or black mascara, and don’t forget to groom your brows!

With so many pretty lip glosses and sheer lipcolors on the market, there is no end to your options. For the most natural looking lips, stay with sheer, light reflecting colors. Instead of lining your lips first, try lining after you have applied your lip color or even skip the liner completely. Remember, keep your lips looking there best by applying a lip treatment at night before you go to sleep. This will keep chapping down to a minimum.

Finish your natural look with some of the shimmer powders and bronzers. Place the shimmer powders on places you want light to bounce off. Cheekbones, browbones, temples. Bronzers should be used sparingly and placed in all the areas that are suntouched.

And remember, always use good brushes to get the best results on your makeup application. Your tools are everything!

I hope I've helped u!!!!!!!
All the best for that beautiful look...........

I would suggest using Maybelline Dream Matte Mouse Foundation. I personally hate wearing makeup, in fact, I avoid it at all cost! But, the other day my mom came home with that particular product and I asked her if I could try it. To make a long story short, I used it, and I loved it. It's actually like a foam that turns into a powder when you put it on, and it's extremely light weight. It gave my face the most flawless look I ever achieved with any type of cover-up, liquid foundation or powder in my 26 years of life! I felt so NATURAL but smooth at the same time. I have very uneven skin tones on my face as well as a pond of oil all over my entire face, but it worked amazingly! Give it a try, I think you'll like it as well. Good luck☻

You can get a foundation matching the colour of your face skin.
Take a drop or so in the palm of your hand and mix a little water in it another drop. and make it into a thin paste, apply this on the face and neck,slowly. then apply a litle rouge on the cheeks and let the pink colour blend with the foundation.Then take the face compact matching with your skin colour and gently apply that on the face.

For the eyes, take a good eye liner and apply that on the eyelid.
then with an eye pencil colour the inside of the eye. now apply the eye shadow,

For the lips take a lip pencil and mark the outline of the lips. Now fill the inside with a good lipstick.. take a kerchif and press your lips on that slowly and gently.
your make up will be good and Natural Looking.

Answer 4

to get the natural look use a tinted moisturiser instead of foundation.then lightly dab some face powder.don't overdo.for the daytime look u can apply just a bit of rose tinted blusher on your cheeks.it will give a natural glow to your face.skip the eyeliner and also mascara if u have naturally thick and curled lashes.if not ,then apply just one sweep of mascara on your upper lashes.for your lips u can apply a tinted lip balm or a gloss. since u want the natural look, use as less as possible.

Answer 5

Natural look does not require any makeup.

Answer 6

first figure out ur skin type-normal,oily or dry..accordingly use a cleanser first then a toner n then moisturiser..just in case u need concealing use a very small amount of concealer or face powder..the idea is not to overdo it..use kohl (kajal) for the eyes and lip gloss for those shiny lips..that works out very fine in obtaining a natural look without looking entirely dull.

Answer 7

tinted moisturizer which is a shade or two darker than your natural skin color to give you that sunny look, put a little blush- if you use powder blush- apply it very lightly on your cheeks, or just use those cheek/lip tint and pinch your cheek with them- use sparingly. Finally curl your lashes, put on mascara and some naturally pinkish brownish or just pinky lip gloss... Viola, you're all set for that natural look!

Answer 8

use very little bit makeup so it gives u a natural look

Answer 9

Loreal has a light natural powder called Bare Naturale. You can find it almost anywhere. Choose a shade closest to your own skin color. If you have blemishes you can use a smaller brush to help with more coverage. Try it it really does work.

Answer 10

You should use a tiny bit because less is more and because if you use a lot, you would not get a natural look.
