The No-makeup Makeup

Glowing Everyday Makeup Look
With just some regular makeup products you can get your everyday glowing makeup look. If you ask me i prefer matte look more than i prefer shimmery glowing makeup, but in winters a little bit of glow on the face looks picture perfect and gives a fresh feel. And that glow comes from the perfect highlighter and a rosy blush (rosy shimmery blush is the magic product here). This make up look does not require any kind of bronzer, it's a very light and fresh look for everyday routine, perfect for college girls ;)


Before i start with the tutorial let me introduce you to the best highlighter products in town. 

Liquid highlighters are like my favoruite, and the best one is elf. In pressed powder form, one of the very best highlighter that's not mentioned above is Diorskin Nude highlighter and that's like the best thing ever, for fair skin go with pink and light gold and for tan skin a shade darker of rose gold/metallic gold.

Now let's begin with the tutorial, shall we?
So for the products, you'll need:
- Maybelline Dream Liquid Mousse (i have fair skin)
- Mac extra dimension skinfinish Whisper of gilt 
- essence all about CURL mascara
- essence white eye pencil
- essence silky touch blush baby doll
- Bourjois 3D effect lipgloss 07

Step #1

Cover your entire face with Dream Mousse foundation, specially under eye area, create an upside down triangle under the eye and blend, this way your dark circles will be covered perfectly. For the nose, use your finger tip to draw a straight line and blend downwards. On the forehead, cover the area between your eyebrows and the area right above them, blending it upwards to your hair line. 

Step #2
After you're done with your face, do the eyes first, what i did here is i painted my lower lash line with essence white eye pencil and applied mascara, that's it. Though for a fancier look you can apply eyeliner, i skipped it here though.

Step #3

Next comes the Blush and highlighter. Using angled contour brush apply highlighter on the cheek bones, nose, above the eyebrows, a little bit on the chin followed by essence silk touch blush on the cheeks and a bit on chin and under hair line. See the picture for help. Oh and a bit of highlighter above the lips too.

Here's something to help you.
