Makeup Made Right

Get a natural look with all-natural products—there’s no reason why good makeup shouldn’t be good for your skin and your surroundings.

A classic look we love no matter the season is the natural look. Best thing about it? You can dress it up and down, and keep it darker months appropriate with the right colors. This season, go for the neutral look with all-natural makeup. However, there are a few tips and tricks to keep in mind to make your natural fall look stand out, rather than washed out.

Many makeup brands are focusing on developing eco-friendly, vegan and all-natural products to keep you looking your best and feeling it, too. And luckily for us, they are getting good at it. You no longer have to choose if you want the environmental friendly brand, or the best one. There’s a ton of makeup out there that works wonders and doesn’t harm the environment.

 

Cohesive Complexion

Opt for a liquid foundation that melts into the skin for a glowing, almost wet finish. Combine it with a highlighter to give you the right glow, and add a little blush for those rosy cheeks.

 

Illuminating Eyes

Use matte soft colors for an everyday look and build it up with darker, more shimmery colors for a more dramatic look at night. Bronze, Auburn and beige shades, and some metallics, are fall and winter favorites. With a good eyeliner and mascara, you can easily add a more dazzling look to your eye makeup.

 

Locked Lips

Stick with your stains. These long-lasting formulas have sheer coverage, which allows you to build up the color and go for a deeper or lighter version of your signature shade. Try a nude lip to show off natural beauty and soft femininity, or go a little darker for nights out.
