I’m obsessed with the no-makeup makeup look. And like any other beauty enthusiast out there, I spend hours watching makeup tutorials trying to perfect this natural makeup look that makes the skin look super radiant and glowing.
While I do love wearing a full face of makeup on some days, there’s just something so appealing about the no-makeup makeup look that makes me want to wear it more often. If you want to give the no makeup-makeup look a try, here’s a list of the only products you’ll need.
Moisturiser
To perfectly nail this makeup look, it is really important for your skin to look plump and healthy. Therefore, after you’re done with cleansing, toning and using a serum, apply a coin-sized amount of the Lakme Peach Milk Moisturiser SPF 24 PA++ all over your face and neck. This will keep your skin hydrated and supple all day long.
Primer
A primer is that holy grail product, which apart from extending the wear-time of your makeup, helps to minimise pores, fill in the fine lines and wrinkles and makes your face appear smoother. The Lakme Absolute Blur Perfect Makeup Primer covers minor skin imperfections and gives your face a smoother, more even-toned appearance.
CC cream
A foundation may just be a little too much for a no-makeup-makeup look, therefore opting for a BB or CC cream makes more sense. Besides giving just the right amount of coverage, a BB cream comes with a plethora of skin benefits. Apart from hiding imperfections to delivering moisture, The Pond’s White Beauty BB+ Fairness Cream delivers an instant glow as well.
Blush and highlighter
Who does not crave that rosy, sun-kissed glow? Blush and highlighter make for the two most essential products when it comes to creating a no-makeup makeup look. We would recommend you to opt for a matte blush like the Lakme Absolute Face Stylist Blush Duos and Lakme Absolute Highlighter – Moon Lit as it not only looks natural but also works well with textured skin.
Mascara
For a natural look, skip applying eyeliner and instead, apply two coats of the Lakme Absolute Flutter Secrets Volumizing Mascara to help open up your eyes and make them appear bigger and brighter.
Lipstick
To create the ultimate no-makeup makeup look, it is important to choose a lipstick or a lip gloss in a nude shade; something that is closest to your natural lip colour. Opting for a bold colour will only take the focus away from your face and make your lips stand out — something you don’t want.
