Either skip the eyeshadow altogether or use a light brown or cream color.
I don't like wearing eyeshadows on a regular basis. It usually gets cakey and smeary by the end of the day. I just wear mascara and it looks clean and fresh.
What do you think? Answer below!
Check out covergirl’s eyeshadow trio in “Shimmering Sands”. It has neutral colors that are gorgeous. It has a highlight, lid and contour color. Its around 5 dollars at any drugstore. Go to youtube and type in “Covergirl shimming sands tutorial” and there are hundreds of videos on how to use it for a natural look. Hope this helped!
Face: Use a light foundation or tinted moisturizer if you need one, some concealer
Eyes: Any natural eyeshadow (browns, some gold, gray?, light pink)…don’t use bright colors for school. Research which colors look best with your eye color. If you want to wear eyeliner, choose a brown one- black doesn’t look natural. And for mascara, you should try a black-brown color, or even a clear mascara that simply lengthens your lashes.
Lips: Go with a nude lip gloss or even some tinted chapstick, if you want it to look more natural.
Hope this helps!
Check out this video, it should help (:
This is what I do
Maybeline fit me foundation : I apply a tiny bit of foundation just to make my skin look flawless but not cakey
Then I apply a light beige eyeshadow! try and stick with earthy tones they are more clean and natural I use a MAC eyeshadow but you can use drugstore products in any brown shade too
Apply Mascara *black* preferrd
” I use carbon by loreal” its great
and then apply black liner on your lowerlash only, and ot make it not smudge take a bit of black eyeshadow and light apply a tiny bit on your lashline on top of the liner this will make it stay in its place for a longer period of time
finally apply a tiny bit of blush or bronzer on your cheek bopne and go for a nude lip and gloss!
