How to look good without makeup
With the title of this post, you may think of the ‘no makeup-makeup’ look, as it is trending now. But this is not about it. This blog post is about how to look good with no makeup at all. I personally do that look often, but I never go to work straight from bed. I’ve some tips and tricks to make you feel more beautiful – because beauty is in you, not in makeup.
1. Eyebrows are one of the most interesting features of your face, in my opinion. And I think your eyebrows pop up when you’re not wearing any makeup. So I recommend to dye your eyebrows and eyelashes regularly, if you’re not blessed to born with dark facial hairs. You can do this at home, or at beauty salon, where you can also have a professional to shape your eyebrows.
2. Skin care. This advice may be obvious from me, but it’s important. Take care of your skin! You’ll feel better when your skin is in good condition. Moisturize, exfoliate, use serums, eat healthy, drink water.
3. Nice hairstyle works. I always do a nice hairstyle with no makeup- look, because it makes me feel more beautiful, regardless of my skins current condition. Different braids, curls, refreshed hair color.. you name it.
4. Dress better. Have the clothes you feel comfortable in and that suits you well your body type.
5. Lips. Keep your lips moisturized with a good lip balm. Super soft lips make you look pretty without an effort. The another thing is exfoliation: just don’t overdo it.
One gentle trick to do this is with a toothbrush. Dip your toothbrush in oil (any oil you can find in your kitchen) and gently brush the dead skin off your lips.
The second one is sugar-based scrub. Try for example to mix equal parts of olive oil and sugar in a bowl. Then massage the mixture onto your lips for about a minute, maximum. Rinse the mixture off with warm(not hot) water.
After exfoliation comes the moisturizing step. I love the organic lip balms better than petroleum jelly etc.
6. Be grateful of what you have and smile every time you can. We all know smiling makes you more beautiful in the eyes of others. I believe the true happiness comes with appreciating life.
Smile, and let the world wonder why. 🙂
