There’s something so mesmerizing about a natural glowy makeup look. It’s clean, effortless, and perfect for any occasion. No need to wonder how to achieve that barely there glow without spending hours on your routine. In this post, I will walk you through 10 simple steps to enhance your natural beauty and give you an effortless glow.
Skin Prep
1. Cleanse
Cleanse your face with a gentle, hydrating cleanser that won’t strip your skin, or any cleanser that works best for your skin type.
2. Moisturize
Start by applying a moisturizer. If you have dry skin, go for a moisturizer with peptides that will deeply hydrate your skin. If you have combination skin or oily skin, use a lightweight moisturizer. Moisturizers keep your skin plump, stop your makeup from cracking, and soften dry patches. It makes your skin smooth to work with.
3. SPF
Do not step out without sunscreen. Even under makeup, you need to protect your skin. You can use a regular or tinted sunscreen. If you’re someone who doesn’t like skin tints or doesn’t need a lot of coverage, tinted sunscreen is the perfect option for you.
The Natural Effortless Makeup Look
1. Fluffy Brows with Brow Gel
Start by brushing a clear or tinted brow gel through your brows to make them look fuller and keep them in place. The goal is to keep them looking fluffy, natural, and effortless.
2. Spot Conceal
Pick a concealer based on the type of coverage you require. Dab a lightweight concealer under your eyes and on areas with redness or blemishes.
Blend it out with a dense brush for a skin-like finish. This keeps your skin looking seamless and fresh, not cakey.
3. Set it with Powder
Lightly dust a setting powder over your face using a fluffy brush. This locks your makeup in place and produces unwanted shine while giving your skin soft and natural.
4. Natural Flush with Cream Blush
Apply two dots of blush on the highest points of your cheek and blend towards the center, apply a tiny bit on your nose too. Cream blush is perfect for adding a natural glow without it feeling heavy or dry.
5. Mascara
Use a lash curler (optional). Apply a single coat of your favorite mascara for wispy lashes.
6. Lips
Swipe on a lip tint, oil, or gloss to hydrate and add a touch of color. Choose a shade that enhances your natural lip color for a polished look.
Final Step: Seal it with Setting Spray
A quick spritz of setting spray ensures your makeup stays fresh all day while giving your skin a natural glowy finish.
There you have it, a fuss-free routine that is easy to follow and enhances your natural beauty. This routine is quick and perfect for busy mornings or a day out with your girls.
