Celebrity Makeup Looks: The Benefits of No-Makeup Makeup

By Haley Lerner

No-makeup makeup is the perfect celebrity makeup look for summer when you’re not looking to go bare, but also don’t want to cake on a whole face of beauty products. No-makeup makeup fools others into to thinking that you have the most flawless, glowing skin naturally. This will hide your under-eye circles and small blemishes. This makeup look does take time and precision, but luckily, we have the beauty tips to help you get the look.

Check out these beauty tips to help you achieve the perfect no-makeup makeup look!

1. Cover-up lightly: The key to a flawless no-makeup makeup look is a very light base on your face. Ditch a heavy foundation and opt for a tinted moisturizer or BB cream. Or, skip the foundation all together and cover up your blemishes with a liquid concealer applied with a small, flat brush. Matten any shininess in your T-zone with a translucent powder.

2. Cream eyeshadow and blush: A neutral-toned cream eyeshadow will help brighten your eye area. Go for a shade that has a touch of shimmer in it to give your eyes some subtle sparkle. You can simply use your ring finger to blend the cream shadow up from your lash line, faded towards your brows. To give yourself a natural rosy flush, apply a cream blush to your cheeks with your fingers. Start applying it at the apple of your cheeks and then blend back and upward toward your hairline.

3. Subtle lashes and brows: Use an eyelash curler to lift up your lashes and then apply a coat of mascara to your top lashes only to keep it natural. Then, use a clear brow gel to neaten up and shape your brows.

4. Highlight: A natural toned highlighting cream will help give your look the perfect overall glow. Apply highlighter on top of your cheekbones, in the inner corners of your eyes, below your brow bone and on your cupid’s bow.
