Makeup Tips for a Natural Look 

 

When applying makeup, many women want to give the skin a polished, finished appearance without looking overly painted. Ideally, makeup will enhance your natural beauty and best features.

The first step toward a flawless but natural finish is the foundation that you apply. Choose a shade that is similar to your skin tone when picking a foundation. Choosing foundation in a color that is similar to your skin tone, whether its tan, golden or ivory, will help you to achieve the natural look that you are going for, while helping to even out your skin tone and hide blemishes. You may want to opt for a tinted moisturizer for this look.

Use a light touch with blush that is similar to your natural cheek color. A warm peach or pink works with many skin tones.

Next, choose a liner for your eyes. Again, you want to go with a color that is close to the color of your skin or light in appearance for a natural look. You may choose a brown or gold. Whatever you choose, pick a liner that is fine point. Line eyes with the liner delicately. Instead of going for a bold look on your eyes, you just want to help them stand out more than they do naturally.

Once your eyes are lined, coat your lashes. When going for a natural look, choose a mascara that is clear or brown. These shades of mascara will help your lashes to stand out without making them look fake.

Finish your natural looking makeup with a lip balm or a lightly-colored lip gloss that resembles your natural lip shade.
