How to look naturally beautiful!

More and more women are daring to bare their natural beauty in makeup-less photos thanks to the growing phenomenon #wokeuplikethis. We have a few tips and tricks on how to "cheat" your way to flawless, effortless beauty!

Healthy skin

Healthy skin is the foundation to any makeup routine! It's important to adopt a healthy lifestyle, drinks lots of water and stock up on the right skincare products. Make sure to thoroughly clean your face before going to bed. Next, apply a serum to your entire face (this will help smooth your skin's texture) and a few dabs of revitalizing eye cream to the contours of your eyes.

A flawless complexion

For a naturally flawless complexion, it's important to opt for a lightly tinted cream instead of a regular foundation. Next, use a corrector palette and brush to cover up dark spots and minor imperfections and apply a cream blush in natural pink to your cheekbones. Finally, set your makeup using a large brush and a thin layer of translucent powder.

Radiant eyes

For seemingly thicker lashes, apply black kohl liner across your upper eyelids—it's just as stunning as liquid liner! Next, brighten your look by applying white eyeliner to the inner corner of your eye. Finally, if you have brown hair and a light complexion, add a touch of brown mascara to your lashes.

Defined brows

Your brows frame your eyes so it's important to define them. Using a pencil or powder, fill your brows in, then add a luminous effect to your brow bone and inner eye with a natural finish highlighter. We love Annabelle's 2-in1 Brow Show Liner + Highlighter!

The finishing touch

The last step is to show off your kissably soft lips by applying a thin layer of lip balm (opt for lightly tinted or clear)!
