The trick for a natural look is to find the right products and to apply the right amount of each product. Here are all the products you’ll need for an au naturel look.

Primer

Primer First things first for an au naturel look and that's a primer! A primer, usually applied on a clean, dry face, is applied before applying makeup. The purpose of a primer is to prevent fading or creasing of makeup. Plus, a primer helps colours stay true to what you see in the palette/bottle, thus making primer necessary for makeup application.

2

Tinted Moisturizer

Tinted Moisturizer Foundation can be heavy and it can be a challenge to find a colour to match that of your skin. An alternative is tinted moisturizer. Many tinted moisturizers are lighter than liquid or powder foundation but provide similar coverage. However, if tinted moisturizers don’t provide enough coverage, then a few dabs of concealer in areas that need it will help to hide problem areas.

3

Setting Powder

Setting Powder A light setting powder will help to keep your makeup in place. Plus, a translucent setting powder will help to give your tinted moisturizer, or whatever liquid foundation you use, a more flawless, airbrushed look. Setting powders can also come with a hint of shimmer if you want the appearance of a glowing complexion.

4

Bronzer

Bronzer A light sweep of bronzer can go a long way. Not only does bronzer add colour to your face but it helps to give you a glowing appearance. Plus, bronzer can help to define your cheekbones and jaw lines. However, for a natural day time look a quick sweep of bronzer on your cheekbones is more than enough.

5

Mascara

Mascara For an all natural look, a few coats of mascara will do. Many women like to opt out of using mascara during the day because they can't rub their eyes or be too fussy around the eye area without smudging their mascara. However, I highly recommend applying a few coats of mascara because mascara is a great way to bring attention to your eyes. As well, mascara can make your eyes look bigger and more alert.

Brow Powder

Brow Powder Thick, untamed eyebrows are a trend amongst young Hollywood because they look more youthful and natural. Unfortunately, many of us can't pull off an untamed eyebrow look without looking messy or un-groomed. A great alternative is to fill in your eyebrows with a powder (if you have full eyebrows that need a bit of touch up) or a brow pencil/crème (for sparse eyebrows). Although filling in your eyebrows seems like it's taking a step away from a natural look, you'll find your eyebrows will look fuller and neater once filled in.

Tinted Lip Balm

Tinted Lip Balm Tinted lip balm is the perfect way to finish up your au naturel makeup look. Not as bold as lipstick or as sticky as lip gloss, tinted lip balm is the best of both worlds. Not only will your lips be hydrated throughout the day but you won't have to sacrifice a coloured lip for the sake of a balm.

Rather than covering up our natural beauty, let’s try to find products that enhance it. The best tip I can offer for an all natural look is use as little makeup as possible. However, if you need to use more products, use only a small amount. What are other tips, tricks and products for an au naturel look?

I'm only 18, and I haven't really used make up. I really appreciate all the makeup advice here. Thank you.

Ok, using primer with tinted moisturizer is a waste of product, since the things the primer is meant to provide (moisture, SPF) are included in the primer. As for setting powder: with moisturizer? Really? Because that's practically like putting setting powder on bare skin!

Not only is this routine perfect for a natural looking complexion but also for beginners people who are starting out with makeup!
