Do you ever want to wear makeup but you don't want it to be super noticeable? This article tells you how to do just that, and this routine is only 10 minutes.
Steps
-
Wash your face with a facial cleanser to avoid blemishes, and to wash off any excess dirt or oils. After you have washed your face, apply a gentle face moisturizer to prep the skin for makeup.
-
Take a concealer that is 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone and put it all around your under eyes to hide any dark circles, and blend the concealer to the brow bone to prime the eyes for eyeshadow. Don't forget to conceal any blemishes or redness.Advertisement
-
Take a little bit of foundation that is also 1-2 shades lighter than your natural skin tone, and with your fingers, a sponge, or a foundation brush, blend the foundation all over your face and down to your neck. This will give you smooth, flawless looking skin. After you apply the foundation, take a face powder that matches your skin tone and, with a powder brush, lightly blend the powder all over your concealer and foundation to set the makeup.
-
Take your favorite mascara and wiggle the wand through your lashes to avoid clumps and to add volume to the lashes. Remember to clean up any mascara that got onto your eyelid!
-
Take a brown or black eyeliner and lift your upper lashes up and apply the liner underneath the lashes. Gently line the bottom lashes with your eyeliner to open up your eyes.
-
Put a light brown eyeshadow over your entire lid and blend into your crease. This will give dimension to your eye without applying too much eyeshadow.
-
Take a small blending brush and blend your brown eyeshadow underneath your lower eyelashes, just like we did earlier with the eyeliner. You don't need to apply too much, just a little will do the trick!
-
Take a light, shimmery eyeshadow color and blend it with your blending brush underneath your eyebrows, and in the corner of your eye. This brightens up and widens the eye.
-
Next, apply your favorite lip balm to moisturize your lips.
-
Apply a light pink lip gloss onto your lips, and then you are done!Advertisement
