How to Apply Natural Looking Makeup Easily
By grad09
Make-up is very important to me!
My face is not the clearest face in the world! I had acne when I was younger, so I still have slight scarring, and definitely discoloration.
Since I am not completely comfortable with my bare face, I never leave the house without make-up. This means, my everyday make-up must look like I'm not wearing anything, because who wants to be known as the girl who wears a ton of make-up?
I begin by washing my face every morning. I use Clean and Clears Advantage Acne Control Kit. This way my face is a blank canvas every morning!
I then begin with CoverGirls Tru blend foundation. The foundation is very important, if it is too oily it will look completely fake, which is not what you're going for! Tru Blend is a great choice because it does not dry out and it definitely doesn't make you too oily.
After the foundation, which is applied with a sponge, not your finger, I apply CoverGirls Simply Powder. A powder must be used to make sure that you are not at all shinny! This makes you smooth and gorgeous!
Once the powered is on, I then you a bronzing powered. This gives me that glow everyone looks for! It's important to match the colors to your skin-tone or it will look very fake!
The eye make up is up to you. A natural color with a little bit of eye liner and mascara is the way I do it. Any bright or bold colors and you look like you're about to go to a club. It's a great way to change up your look for night, but you don't want to wear it everyday to work.
Natural is the way to go, and this is the way I have found most effective! Hope this helped someone!
