What Is “No Makeup” Makeup?

June 20, 2022 by Amy Leave a Comment

“No makeup” makeup is obviously an oxymoron, but it’s an oxymoron that may have a place in your makeup cabinet. The idea behind “no-makeup” makeup is a simple makeup look that barely looks like you’re wearing anything at all. It can be a great makeup look for anyone who’s not interested in drawing too much attention to themselves, or anyone whose workplace may not allow bright makeup looks. Here are a few products to use an Ulta coupon on if you’re looking for a no-makeup makeup look.

1. Foundation

The first step is foundation. Typically, you’ll want to stay away from a matte foundation for this look, instead looking for a BB cream or a tinted moisturizer. With these types of foundation, you can cover any irregularities within your skin while also allowing your natural skin to shine through. This creates the perfect starting point for a no-makeup look.

2. Concealer

Concealer is a key component in no-makeup makeup. You want a makeup product that can help you cover up irregularities in both tone and texture on your skin. Most frequently, you’ll see people use this under the eyes, as well as tapped on any individual points where you might want to cover something like a pimple or an acne scar.

3. Blush/Contour/Highlighter

The key to blush, contour, and highlighter in these looks is to go extremely light. If you go too hard on these products, as much as you might love them, you run the risk of making it look more like you’ve applied makeup, which isn’t the point of this makeup style. Use a very light, very fluffy brush to apply these products, so they blend smoothly out into the rest of your makeup.

4. Eyeshadow

A matte eyeshadow in a slightly darker neutral shade is one of the best options for no-makeup eyeshadow. You can also look for a cream eyeshadow formula that’s very close to your skin tone. Above all, if you’re really trying to sell the “no-makeup” look, avoid eyeshadows with any glitter in them, as they’ll often look strange when paired with other no-makeup tips.

5. Lipstick or Lip Gloss

Finally, you need a nude lipstick or lip gloss. Finding a nude lipstick can actually be surprisingly difficult, so make sure you know what lipstick looks best on your skin tone, then stick with it. A lip gloss will typically look best if it’s relatively clear, with just a small amount of pigment in it to give your lips a bit of a shine. Plus, for both lipstick and lip gloss, you can go for anything from a quick swipe to multiple coats for more color.

Conclusion

The no-makeup makeup look has become more popular over recent years, and it looks like it’s probably going to be here to stay at least in some from for many years to come. Even if you only do it every so often, it’s still a good idea to know how to create your perfect “no-makeup” look. Use these products to create your look and feel your best.
