Natural makeup or nude color: how to get the "washed face" effect

Get a natural look and be so well taken care of and detail that it seems that we are not made up is an art. The nude color makeup is perfect for those days when you need some makeup but you do not want to attract much attention with powerful colors . It is also perfect for a summer night in which thanks to the sun your makeup does not need much more than a few strategic touches on the face to give it the luminosity and natural effect and "washed face" we want to achieve.

For those who do not want to give up makeup nude color becomes their biggest ally. The secret is in the base. Depending on the event and the time of day you can use:

1 . Day cream, BB cream or CC cream : for lighter effect

2 . Foundation or makeup base: for a more elaborate natural look: it will always give more coverage to the face. But above all, keep in mind that now there are many products of light and light textures with which to achieve a perfect nude color look.

What is the step by step for a perfect nude makeup

1 . First (optional): to achieve a more durable finish you can also apply a primer first that will also bring light   to your face.

2 . Foundation : what we look for after all is an embellished effect and without imperfections, so a foundation of makeup (light as we said before), is essential for our natural makeup. Unify our skin and cover any type of stain, imperfections, pimples, redness, pores ... is the goal of a good natural makeup.

3 . Concealer : if you do not have dark circles this step you can skip it but to unify the color of makeup and cover bags and dark circles it is important that you use a good concealer. No matter the type you use, everything depends on the type of skin you have, there are cream, liquid, stick ... everything is a matter of trying to find the one that feels best to your skin. But the correctors that you will have to use are several depending on the imperfection that we want to cover:

      > Green : for redness

      > Yellow : for dark violet or dark circles

      > Damask / beige : it is for marks, spots or more evident signs of fatigue.

4 . Powders : to give a much more defined finish and makeup also lasts you can choose to apply a powder to seal both the base and the correctors that you have used to cover imperfections. A few sun powders will be perfect for summer while you can opt for more translucent powders for other times of the year so that they simply have the function of sealing makeup without adding color.

5 . Shadow eyes : eyeshadows and use a nude color or a color rosita cover both the eyelid. You can also use them in a more brown tone as eyeliners for both the upper and lower water lines, below the lashes. A good mask of eyelashes in both brown and black will open the look and create the effect of depth that we seek. Always keep in mind that the texture of the eyelash mask is light so that the natural effect continues to exist.

Experts also recommend instead of using mascara, creating spots with brown eyeliner between the lashes and then applying a little bit of mascara.

6 . Illuminator: we will bring a touch of light in the areas where the light hits our face in a natural way: on the cheekbones, nasal septum, cupid's arch and under the eyebrows.

7 . Blusher : as a final touch we will bring the blush on the cheeks. It should always be as natural as possible to get that nude color makeup we are looking for, the pink blush would be for those with fair skin and blond hair, blond ash, platinums ... Those more brown can use more brown colors and even pulling the terracotta. And those that have a more intermediate skin or copper hair or redhead can opt for those blushes in coral tones. It is very important that the blush is based on the base to achieve the most natural effect possible.

8. Labial : who prefers the matt tones and who the glossy tones. Choose the one you choose, keep in mind that it is always among the most natural range of colors possible. The rositas, beige colors, brown very natural nude tones or just a balm , vaseline or shine will be perfect to complete your nude color look.

How to make up at home?

Make up correctly is not an easy task and to do it correctly it is necessary to know your own face and its tones, in order to get the right products (Own)

How to make up at home?

The use of cosmetics goes back to the classic civilizations but even today many women have problems to paint themselves. What are the best tricks?

The Egyptians were the first to put on makeup, as shown by the tombs of the time. Cleopatra wore a red lipstick, which was made with the carmine of beetles. Later, the Greeks and the Romans imitated them, painting their faces with mineral powders and crushed stones. In the Middle Ages, this aesthetic trend fell into disuse and was more noble and was better seen having a pale face. At the beginning of the 20th century and until today, makeup became fashionable again. 

What is the function of the makeup base?

Match the tone of the skin and cover imperfections. Those with a matte finish are indicated for mixed-greasy skins and those with a luminous finish for normal-dry skins.

How does it apply?

A small amount of product should be placed in the palm of the hand. Then use a brush to apply the product with small touches on the face, starting from the center of it and towards the ends.

What foundation of makeup should be chosen according to the skin?

It should be the most similar to the color of the face. The best way to find the perfect tone is with the strip test : to do this, make a strip with the makeup base you want to try from the cheek to the jaw. If it disappears, you have found your perfect tone. In case of doubt, decide for the lightest shade, but you should bear in mind that the key to a makeup without imperfections is to blur.

What kind of basis do you recommend buying and why?

One that adapts by its texture to the needs and tastes of each person ( mousse , fluid, base with silicone ...) and, above all, that moisturizes the skin, which is the most important thing for a makeup to last.

How to use the concealer of dark circles?

It is used on parts of the face that need additional coverage. Apply with your fingers or a sponge, using small touches, based on makeup. It is preferable that it has liquid texture, because it facilitates its application.

Which corrector should you choose?

To correct spots and disguise pimples, you have to use a concealer the same shade as the skin. For dark circles, apply over the dark area and to the lacrimal area. If these are very deep, use a lighter shade than the skin itself. The yellow concealer is only used to cover redness on light skins.

How is eyeliner applied?

Draw a line flush with the tabs (lower or upper) of the desired thickness (thick or thin), with pencil (more defined) or shadows (more blurred).

What eyelash masks do you recommend to use?

The ideal is to choose a mascara according to the final result you want to obtain: there are some that provide definition, volume, water resistant and even lengthen the lashes.

What is your best application?

Curl the lashes first, gently pressing 10 seconds. Apply first at the tips and follow from the base and zig-zag up.

Which eye shadows are the most successful?

The mineral shades that include antioxidants. The neutral tones are applied throughout the eye and the lacrimal and serve as a basis to apply other colors. The dark ones are used to emphasize and give depth: they are applied in the crease of the eye and along the line of the eyelashes, being ideal also to create smoky effects. The diamonds are perfect to illuminate the lacrimal and the bone of the eyebrow. And, the most vivid colors are applied on the mobile eyelid and bring a change of look instantly.

How do you recommend applying lip makeup?

First, I would outline them with the lipstick, as this prevents the glossfrom coming off the lip. Also make up the corners, blurring even the center of the lip, so as not to create a contrast of color, in case the tone of the pencil and the lipstick are not the same. Then, with the desired lipstick, apply it by the center of the lip mixing with the pencil. And finally, the gloss -which can be the same color as the bar or transparent-, will be applied in the center of the lip to create the optical effect of thickness.

What areas should be highlighted from the face and how to do it?

The areas that are usually highlighted are lips and eyes. If we have small eyes and fleshy lips, we will enhance the lips as this will divert attention to them and vice versa. 

How to distribute makeup powders?

They are always applied with a brush, because with the tassel we compact the makeup and it does not look so natural. They should be placed after the base of the makeup. Depending always on the light that there is and the time: if it is in the morning, with natural light, tones equal to the skin; If it is at night and artificial light, one or two darker shades of the skin, since this way it will not look so clear.

Write down some essential makeup tricks that we do not usually take into account.

Apply a moisturizer before the base, because most people do not moisturize the skin before putting on makeup. Choose a good base, suited to our needs. And know how to use the lipstick correctly.

A recommendation that she makes to her clients, so that they are put on makeup depending on the color of the face, skin, hair ...

It is important that at the time of makeup is used or the same tone of the skin or a lower tone, to give more light, which is not suitable to go out at night, because it will make the skin look paler and look that you are sick
