Step-by-Step: Achieving The ‘Au Natural’ Makeup Look!!!

Known for her dramatic makeup looks, rumor has it that KANYE WEST‘s actually prefers his  girlfriend KIM KARDASHIAN  toned all the way down.

WEST like many fellas find makeup looks that result in  a more natural appearance more attractive.

Now if giving a more au natural look is something you are going for, know that there is no magic formula to clean appearance.

Wearing makeup while maintaining a natural appearance is actually quite easy and  you can still enhance your features without wearing makeup that is way too obvious and overdone.

Check out Juicy‘s four tips for getting the natural look!

Step 1. Use foundation that correctly matches your skin tone.  Don’t use heavy bronzers or cream. Still apply your moisturizers, cover up, or any other product that improves your skin.

Step 2. Find eye shadows slightly darker or lighter than your skin tone. Beige, brown, taupe, light pink, and neutral tones are best to try.  If using more than one shade make sure that you carefully blend. Shades that are too dark or too bright won’t produce that natural appearance.

Step 3. A few strokes of mascara is perfectly fine, but for a more subtle look don’t use eyeliner. You also may want to opt to not use your false lashes when trying to obtain a natural look.

Step 4. Natural doesn’t mean skipping lip color – it is highly encouraged. However, you should use sheer, nude, or light shades. Lip glosses and tinted lip balm usually works better to avoid bold and bright colors.
