Natural Beauty with Barely Any Makeup!

Hi there!

Today's post is going to be all about natural makeup. I can barely get myself out of bed lately, let alone put tons of makeup! So in the spirit of being tired... here's the tutorial!

Wash your face! This is really important, you need to get all of the gunk off of your skin. (I use Cetaphil's Daily Facial Cleanser)

Tone your skin by using witch hazel or a toner. This helps to get dead skin cells off without shredding your face! (I use Burt's Bees Garden Tomato Toner.)

Now use a moisturizer or organic hand lotion. This helps to calm your skin and also add some extra moisture. (I use either Eucerin Everyday Protection with SPF 30 or Burt's Bees Baby Bee Buttermilk Lotion. I know this isn't meant for the face, but it's great!)

This is the time to use concealer if you need it, the key word is need. If you have dark circles (like über-dark) put a little on under your eyes and around your nostrils. This will help keep your skin looking calm all through the day! (I use Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in 15)

Now curl your eyelashes gently. Don't go ripping them all out.

Next if you want to, apply a tiny bit of mascara to the base of your eyelashes. You just want some definition. (I use Maybelline Great Lash Mascara in Black)

That's it! You're finished and still look like yourself. This is quickly becoming my favorite look!


(All of these products were bought and I'm not being paid to mention them. Just so ya know.)
