Mocha No-Makeup Makeup Look Guide

Makeup should not be used to cover your face with a thick layer but should help in enhancing your facial features and overall look. In the year 2022, makeup trends are changing every day. Beauty goals have changed drastically – from women applying heavy makeup to now women focusing on skincare and natural-looking makeup #cleanlook. The famous makeup artist Bobbi Brown also believes that natural-looking makeup is one of the most universally flattering makeup looks.

Why No-Makeup Makeup look?

This look has been trending and is very popular among both makeup artists and women who love to flaunt their beautiful brown skin. The busy schedules of women don’t allow them to do heavy makeup and bold makeup like glossy eyes in a client meeting, or to work on a regular day is a no-no. Therefore, this #cleanlook also works with them. No-Makeup Makeup look is essentially a misnomer, makeup products are used for this, although they are used in a way that they go unnoticed. Here is how you can easily sport this look.

Start with Skin

Have a good skincare routine. Prepare your skin with moisturizer, then SPF and finally primer. Use a moisturizer which makes your skin look and feel better, right after you apply it. A good moisturizer will hydrate your skin, soothes dry skin and keep breakouts at bay for that radiant glow. Primer will give you an even looking skin and will prime it for makeup.

Face Makeup – Creating a Base

Makeup artists recommend refraining from using foundation for no-makeup makeup look. Instead apply a good bb cream which matches your skin tone to instantly brighten and beautify your skin. If you are still not feeling confident, you can try a light coverage foundation which will even out the skin tone and shine through.

Apply Concealer strategically

Concealers are heavy makeup products and used mostly when you are going for a party. To get best results, apply it strategically. Apply it wherever you find any blemishes, redness, or dark circles only. Blend the concealer with your fingers for a natural effect. Use a light powder to set the base on your T-zone and under the eyes.

Go for a Natural Eye Look

You need to keep your eyes simple and bare. Don’t overdo it. Tightline your top and bottom inner rims of the eyes with liner, staying as close to the lash line as possible. For a light look, we suggest using a brown eyeliner.

Get fuller Lashes and Brows

“A good eyelash curler is a must”, say makeup artists. Enhance your natural eyelashes with an eyelash curler to give your lashes some body and a black or brown mascara to intensify your lashes.

Blush your Cheeks and Lips

On the cheeks, use a small amount of cream blush on the apples of the cheeks and a smidgeon of shimmery highlighter on the cheekbones. Lips, the favorite part of a women’s face, it should not be highlighted much and should suit your skin. Apply a nude lip liner that matches your natural lip color, then fill in with nude lipstick, lip gloss, or tinted lip balm.
