How to get natural makeup step by step

OBJECTIVE: Very natural day makeup

In this case, we understand makeup as an enhancer of our authentic beauty and not as a carnival tool. It is clear that radiant and luminous makeup is what we want for our summer day to day and we have a firm objective: to achieve perfect skin and marked and illuminated features without appearing to have a single gram of product on us. We give you the keys to get a VERY natural makeup.

First step: Clean and hydrated skin

You thought you could skip this step from time to time, but you can't imagine how important it is to clean your skin well. Makeup a dirty and dehydrated skin is not only a bad idea for its integrity, but it does not look good at all . Make sure to dedicate time in your routine to these two steps, which will take you little but will contribute a lot.

ALTERNATIVE STEP: BRIGHTEN YOUR SKIN BEFORE MAKE-UP

Although it is not a mandatory step, it will make your skin look much more luminous and hydrated . For this, life has given us illuminating primers, which are used prior to makeup base (as the name suggests) and create a light so powerful that it is seen through the rest of the products that you put on top. If you have oily skin, you may want to skip this step. But if it dries up in summer and you want a 'glowy' face , this is your cream.

Second step: BB creme

Since they became fashionable thanks to the powerful current of Korean beauty that came into our lives, many of us have left aside the classic makeup base. And it is that BB creme are, in reality, colored creams that take care of your skin. The key is that you choose a very light and fresh one for this time of year. It will cover your imperfections and unify your tone without showing that you have a gram of it.

Third step: Corrector, the righteous

Concealing dark circles is an important step to achieve the desired 'good-face' effect in this case, but be careful, you may have been using the concealer wrong. A dark circle is covered with a color that previously neutralizes yours (either salmon or yellow) and, later, your EXACT shade of concealer . We are used to going for shades lighter than our skin and the raccoon effect is not cool at all.

Perfect skin without blemishes

Once we have made all the pertinent corrections, being very careful not to go overboard with the quantities, it is time to add color to that little face. The good news is that, for this makeup, you will not need shadows or eye pencils: with bronzer and highlighter we will do EVERYTHING .

Step four: tan and illuminate

Sun powders are essential in summer to enhance the tan. Along with them we will add light in strategic points with an (important) CREAM illuminator . In addition, both products will serve our eyes. We will apply powder in the crease of our eyelid to add depth and color and then we will dab in the middle of the eyelid with the finger impregnated with highlighter.

Fifth step: eyelash moment

We all know that the effect that good eyelashes give to the look is practically miraculous. For this reason and, although we are not going to abuse the amounts, we will apply a small dose of mascara. Forget layering and layering, just lightly curl them and give them a darker touch. Plus, it doesn't take a lot of money for a mascara to be the bomb (like this one).

Alternative step: the most beautiful touch

Do you need to fix those eyebrows? You are doing well, because you cannot imagine how much beautiful eyebrows do for our face. In addition, using the pencil with which you fill them, you can join the most beautiful trend of the summer and paint yourself some small false freckles. The tone of the eyebrow pencils are usually neutral to cold and this will make them look super natural. If freckles seem too much for you, you can try two or three false (and discreet) moles.

ET VOILÁ: Natural day makeup finished

The goal is to achieve a makeup so natural, beautiful and radiant that you look more beautiful than ever with the least amount of product possible. It is not about disguising our skin or changing our features, but about highlighting the color of the sun, the light of hydration and the brightness of our eyes . Okay, Hailey Baldwin wears pink on her lips, which is a very interesting alternative step if we delicately fill it in with a nude lipstick .

"Oops, I don't wear makeup. I don't like going as a door." ERROR. This and other myths about makeup are what we have to dismantle. You can wear makeup and not go like a door and that is what we come to demonstrate today. Our goal is to get the most natural day makeup to wear all summer.

Wearing makeup is not bad, we just have to make sure to remove all traces afterwards with a good facial cleanser . Therefore, we are not going to worry about how many products we use on our face every day, but how we take care of it BEFORE and after. We don't say it, science says it.

How to get a natural makeup, step by step

We have to have a very clear objective and that objective is to highlight our features and give us color, without looking like we are disguised. In fact, with this simple step-by-step, people will think that you are not carrying a single gram of product when in reality you are going to use a few.

Mandatory step: cleaning and hydration. You have no excuses for not doing it, it is two minutes a day when you get up. It won't do any good if you want a natural makeup if you are going to do it all on dirty, blemished and dehydrated skin.
Alternative intermediate step. Use an illuminating primer . The luminous aspect is the most sought after in summer and with products of the style we manage to radiate light all day, regardless of the amount of products that we apply next.
Mandatory step after primer. BB Creme or colored cream. This will protect your skin (better if it has a sun and / or urban protection factor) and will also correct imperfections and unify the tone.
Mandatory step: correct. Make use of your fingertips to apply concealer or dark circles remover. In this way you will apply it in a much more natural way since your own finger heats the product and helps it to blend better. IMPORTANT: make sure it is the exact tone of your skin or, at most, a lighter tone only.
Mandatory step: light and color. Bronzer and highlighter for your cheeks and strategic points of the face. And, also, as an alternative step, we can use both on our eyelids to add a touch of depth (bronzer) and extra luminosity (illuminator) to our eyes.
Mandatory step: mascara. Because yes, because there is nothing that improves the look more than slightly wavy eyelashes with a touch of darker color.
Alternative step: false eyebrows and freckles. Eyebrows are essential in our face and wearing them with the correct width and length will change our face completely. Additionally, you can use an eyebrow pencil to make small (and subtle) fake freckles or moles.
