Makeup can be a really complicated territory, especially if you are lazy (just like me). I mean, we do love putting makeup on, but on the other hand, we hate spending hours in front of the mirror trying to perfect that winged eyeliner or nail that contouring. So, what’s a lazy girl to do? Stop wearing makeup? Ab-so-lu-te-ly not.
Learn how to ace your makeup look in minutes with the help of these near-genius tips mentioned below.
01. A statement pout

A statement lip colour is the easiest way to look all glammed-up without really putting in too much effort. All you need to do is keep two or three bright and bold lipstick shades (this includes a red you love, obviously) handy and swipe it on to liven up your entire face in an instant. Additionally, a bold lipstick shade can make you look well put-together even if you’re wearing no other makeup. Try it out; we know you’ll love it!

02. Glitter eyeshadow

Another great way to amp up your outfit without trying too hard is by wearing a pigmented glitter eyeshadow. This is an effortless way to make your eye makeup the focus of your look while keeping the rest of your makeup pretty simple with a nude pout and a hint of blush. Just don’t forget to apply two coats of mascara for va-va-voom lashes!

03. Graphic eyeliner

Graphic eyeliners were a huge trend last year and will continue to reign supreme in 2021 as well, and we know why. This is such a cool way to level up a simple eyeliner look. Plus, graphic eyeliners provide so much more freedom to try different textures and colours to create a look that best suits your personality.

04. Monochrome makeup

For those of you who want to try something different without taking too much effort (duh), the monochrome makeup look should be right up your alley. Recreating this makeup look is super simple because all you need is just one product – a lip and cheek tint. Simply apply it as a lipstick, blush and eyeshadow, and there, you’re good to go. It’s really that simple!
