It’s funny that the “No makeup” makeup looks actually take longer for me to do than a full face of makeup! I think it has to do with lack of foundation and concentration of pinpointing the areas that need concealing. Let me show you how I did it!
+ Always prime! I used four eye shadows including a cool toned brown crease color, a skin colored lid, highlight color, and a warm dark brown for the outer third of my eyes. The key to my no makeup eye look is the highlight color. Not only did I use it on my brow bone, but I also used it to brighten my inner corners and just a little on the middle of my lids. Then, I did my brows with a brow pencil, keeping everything as natural as possible. I curled my little eyelashes and nixed the mascara. (The shock horror!)
Eyes: UD Naked | MAC Rice Paper| ABH Brow Wiz | Benefit Stay Don’t Stray | Shu Uemura eyelash curler
+ For lips, I apply lip balm. Then I go in with MLBB lipstick. Think natural, people!
Lips: Bite Beauty Musk
+ I only used concealer, powder and blush for my face. Very minimal. But I did end up using three different concealers. They did different things, I swear. The first was an orange based concealer to cancel out the imperfections under my eyes. Afterwards, I topped that off with my skin tone colored concealer. For my blemishes and redness, I covered up with a waterproof formula, which lasted all day. I powdered my entire face since I get so oily throughout the day. Lastly, I put my favorite peachy pink blush on the apples of my cheeks for a healthy looking complexion.
Face: MAC Blotting Powder | MAC Spaced Out | MUFE concealer | Eve Pearl concealer | Benefit Boing! Concealer
And now we’re done! When I did this makeup look, I wanted it to look natural and use the least amount of makeup possible. I really enjoyed doing this makeup look and I hope you like the look as well — Thank you for reading!
Aww, you look so nice in both before and after π

This is such a gorgeous look! I love that this is a no-makeup makeup look that actually looks like a no-makeup makeup look, rather than those awful ‘no makeup’ looks that include a full-on contour and smokey eye. Love it. π
