Looking Natural, Naturally

Despite what some may think, sporting a bare face not the same thing as looking natural. You may think, what’s the difference or what’s the point, you’re hardly wearing makeup, but a natural look is all about just that. You can enhance and define your greatest features in understated manner and that reflects a healthy looking complexion. You can look more awake, less stressed, and overall put together. Bring out the glow in you, without looking like you’re trying too hard or wearing a pound of makeup. Creating a natural makeup look is simple especially when using natural beauty products - it’s good for your skin and the environment!

Complexion Correct

To even out your complexion from any redness, discoloration using a lightweight tinted moisturizer helps to moisturize skin with a bit of color. During the summer it’s a good idea to keep makeup as light as possible to allow your pores to breathe. It’s also helpful to use one that has sun protection. Plus a face full of makeup during the summer can be ruined by sweat, humidity, and heat and the aftermath isn’t as pretty.

Try Sukicolor Tinted Active Moisturizer made with completely natural pigments, this daily moisture works to hydrate skin and smooth pores. Or try Living Nature’s Clear Lights Tinted Moisturizer, it gives sheer coverage while it moisturizes.

Liner

Use eye liner to draw line the top of your eyelid from your innermost part working your way to the edge of your eyelid. The line can be as thick or as thin as you’d line. For added flare, you can drag the edge out a tad for a winged eye. The result is a defined eye that preps and complements mascara.

Try Living Nature Eye Pencil, it’s made of vegetable wax and is gentle on the eye. Or Christopher Drummond Enduring Eyeliner Pencil, for a highly pigmented and rich line.

Mascara

Apply two coats of mascara to each eye. Start on one eye, wiggling from base to tip and then repeat on the other eye. Return back to the original eye and add to a second coat, do the same to the other. This opens up your eyes and makes your lashes appear lush and full for a youthful look.

Try NVEY ECO Moisturizing Mascara, it’s full of vitamins to keep your lashes soft and supple. Or try Living Nature Conditioning Mascara with manuka honey for nourished lashes.

Blush

Swirl a makeup brush into your blush and apply it to the apples of your cheeks. Not sure where that is? Just smile and the two fattest parts of your cheeks are directly below your eyes and apply there. Makeup artists often mention the easiest way to appear young is to swirl some color on your cheeks. It gives you a natural and healthy looking flush like you just jogged around the block.

Try NVEY ECO Organic Powder Blush that comes in 4 natural looking shades, or try Christopher Drummond Blush - Sateen, a vegan loose powder blush available in 5 colors to flatter your cheeks.

Lip Gloss

A quick swipe of lip gloss adds shine that can make your lips appear fuller. This works well with those who have thin lips to add fullness. You’ll want to choose a sheer color, nothing too light or too dark. Any color that is similar to your natural lip shade or a few shades darker will do. Lip color is the last addition to complete a natural look.

Try Sukicolor Luscious Lips Berry Cream Trio, a convenient collection of shades for everyday of the week. Or try NVEY ECO Lip Lustre, it’s made natural minerals and added sun protection and comes in 10 sheer shades.
