How to get a natural-looking skin w/ make-up?

Question

hi ladies, I don't know if this is a crazy question. But please help me!! I understand that celebrities have lots of money to invest in their faces, skins, and stuffs. Even though we all know they DO wear make-up and have the best makeup artists with them, they still look very natural l and look like their skin is fresh and bare. Please help me!! If there is any way possible to get any closer to the look of the ceb's skin-look, please show me how!! I would LOVE for my skin (with make-up @ a resonable cost) to look natural like theirs. Please help help help!! Thank you very much!!!!!! xxx

Answer 1

Celebs prob don't look as great close up, they can edit pics and everything they are really not the super perfect stars they apear to be on tv or in magazines. For healthy skin try going to a spa and getting deep pore cleansing. And for breakouts don't use an oil base coverup because that will just clog your pores use a powder base one. If you still want to use an oil based one than use a powder over it and it will look more natural.

I had a similar issue recently, My face looked like bumpy and i would conceal to make it look smooth but it still felt bumpy and ugh it's frustrating, now I know it's difficult to ask, because once you get into a routine it's hard to break, but over winter break i was just with my family for about a week, and I wore no concealer, no cover up no powder nothing, bare face, wash morning and night followed with oil free facial moisturizer. I put a little eyeliner on so i could look acceptable but other then that i was bare. Your face needs to get "fresh air" sometimes and if you can go a few days, a long weekend without any makeup and lots of cleaning it will look healthier. redness will go away because the irritation will be less, and pores will clear up because nothings clogging them. Also, if it's a different color from your neck, keep in mind that if you wear makeup all over, a lot of makeup contains sunscreen, the sun probably tanned your neck and not your face.

something to try is just get mac concealer for like imperfections, use it on whatever you want to cover, then use a normal foundation, like the ones you find in walmart or walgreens then use bare minerals over it. it sounds like alot but it works REALLY good and wont fade or wear away during the day, and looks really natural, it doesnt look cakey if you do it right. bare minerals alone is good, but it doesnt provide enough coverage for alot of people alone

Answer 4

Well you will need a little makeup. First start with concealer. Remember go one shade lighter then your natural skin tone.(It's blends better with your skin) Then dust on a little bronzer on your cheeks and t-zone. It will naturally highlight your skin and make you look really tan and bright but natural at the same time. Stick with a nude gloss and your set. Don't forget to curl your lashes to makes your eyes look like your wearing mascara even though you are'nt.

Answer 5

I love (Cosmedicine tinted moisturizer w/spf 20 $35 @ Sephora). It's your moisturizer, spf, and sheer foundation all in one! If you think about it it's not expensive. This moisturizer has emu oil, which it's claimed to be antiaging and moisturizing. It does moisturize and it doesn't make you look oily and covers very nicely. (NOT ORANGE) like other tinted moisturizers! Then you can put on a light blush, mascara, and gloss. Favorites: Benefit's Benetint for both cheeks and lips mixed with a little Benefit's Hollywood glow for a quick glowing look.

Answer 6

there are several herbal things u can use to have healthy smooth skin like celeberaty.
you can prepare papaya pulp pack at home and apply daily night, leave it for 20 minutes.wash it off with cold water.
you will have natural glowing skin.

Answer 7

Either you can use Bare Minerals (it is resonable and incredible) or use self tanner mixed with foundation. I use Revlon ColorStay with neutrogena self tanning foam. Just a little.

Answer 8

Cover up any blemishes you have. Then Apply foundation. Then Aply bronzer

Answer 9

buy a home micro-dermabrasion kit to smooth out the skins surface...for a foundation and blush i recommend Bare Naturale it's by L'oreal...they have foundations and blushes that keep your face looking flawless and very natural...and they're not terribly expensive like bare minerals.

Answer 10

continue to take care of your skin twice a day: cleanse, tone, moisturize! also, keep in mind the have diet regiments, so thats a big factor in skin care. remember to drink LOTS of water.

..this will keep your skin fresh and clean.

oh yeah, and try tinted moisturizers - it will give you a nice finish and its not as harsh as makeup. [smashbox has a great line]

good luck!
