There’s a reason the no-makeup makeup look always comes back— NUDE looks great on everyone; you look fresh, well-groomed, and most importantly, like yourself. Bobbi Brown has perfected the nude look and we tell you about it.
Prep your face with moisturizer, SPF, and primer (if you use it). Find a moisturizer that immediately plumps up your skin right after you apply it.
Cover dark circles, blemishes and spots with concealer or tinted moisturizer. Be particularly careful while doing the under-eye area and try using a concealer that is a shade lighter than your skin tone.
Set the foundation with a delicately shimmery illuminating powder.
On the cheeks, try a little cream blush on the apples of the cheeks, followed by a swipe of shimmery highlighter on cheekbones.
For a natural eye makeup look, use a nude eyeshadow palette and play around with different colors to find something that blends into your face. Enhance your natural eyelashes with an eyelash curler and/or mascara, if desired.
For lips, try a nude lip liner that matches your natural lip color, then fill in with nude lipstick, lip gloss, or tinted lip balm.
Nude lipsticks can come in different tones, including peach, pink, brown, and even reddish. It’s all about working with your skin tone to find which compliments you. A good starting point for finding “your” nude lip shade is to find one that matches your inner lip.
Tinted balms and glosses add a bit of color to your lips, working with their natural shade to enhance them.
