14 Super Simple Makeup Looks That Showcase Your Natural Beauty

#1 Simple Foundation

One of the trickiest things about getting a natural look with your makeup is coverage. You want to hide uneven skin tone, or maybe some blemishes, but you don't want to look like a cakey mess! Some helpful tips to avoid a botched foundation attempt include:

- Making sure you skin is clean and moisturized before applying any foundation

- Using a foundation brush for application and blending out from the center of your face

- A damp beautyblender softens the look without absorbing any product

- Tap on concealer if you have any blemishes or redness

- Finish with a translucent powder by sweeping it over any shiny areas (between eyebrows, down and around the nose, under the eyes, and on your chin)

#2 Nude Lips

A nude pencil can create the perfect, soft, natural finish on your lips, but without some sort of moisturizer, it can be really dry. That's the opposite of what you want.

- Start off by applying a super moisturizing lip balm

- Take a nude pencil and define the lips by staying close to your natural lip line and using gentle strokes to fill them in

- Finish the look with a layer of tinted balm in a color similar to your lip pencil

#3 Full Lips

If you want a fuller lip but aren't a fan of using bright, bold lipstick, try this handy trick:

- Apply a non-drying concealer to your lips and line the perimeter with a dusty rose pencil. This will make them appear larger.

- Using a lip brush, fill them in with a pink lipstick

- Finish the look off with a gloss for dimension and shine

#4 Eye Pop

To achieve a natural, "no makeup" look, you want to limit the number of products you use. This simple trick is perfect for natural eye makeup:

- Apply a light flesh-colored pencil to your waterline

- Blend a shimmery shadow to the inner and outer duct area

- Using a dark eyeliner pencil, line your eyelid outward, starting in the center. You want to gradually thicken the liner as you work your way out.

- Smudge the liner with a Q-Tip or small brush

- Lastly, curl your lashes and apply mascara, wiggling the wand back and forth to get most of the product on the base of your lashes and sweeping the rest up towards the ends.

#5 No Eyeliner

Sometimes there isn't enough time or patience to deal with eyeliner application. For a great, natural look without the hassle of liner, try this:

- Apply a luminizing foundation with a beauty blender, followed by coral blush on the apples of your cheeks

- To warm up your look, sweep bronzer on the forehead, hollows of the cheeks, and chin line

- Blend eye primer into the eyelid and above your crease

- Create a base coat on the lid with brown shadow

- Dust with a shimmery, bronze shadow and blend around the crease with a fluffy brush

- Also apply this shadow to the inner and outer bottom corners of your eyes

- Curl your lashes and coat with mascara

- Complete the look with pink lipstick

#6 No Makeup, Makeup

Achieve this look with a few simple products and these easy to follow steps:

- Start by washing your face and applying moisturizer

- Conceal your eyelid and under eye area (you can use a light liquid foundation or concealer)

- Using a brow pencil that resembles your natural hair color, lightly fill in your eyebrows and blend with a brow brush

- Next, find an eyeshadow that is lighter than your skin tone and apply it to the inside corner of your lid and brow line

- Follow the light shadow with one that is a bit darker than your skin color. Brush it into your crease from the outside corner to the center of your lid

- Take an angle brush and line your top lash, starting from the outside corner and working your way in as far as you desire

- Do the same on your bottom lash line

- Top it all off by curling your lashes and applying a good coat of mascara

#7 Fresh Face

This "no makeup" routine doesn't involve any foundation! If that sounds appealing, check it out!

- Instead of foundation, start with a BB cream or tinted moisturizer with SPF (remember to exfoliate your skin beforehand)

- Cover your eyelid with a light brown shadow and then apply brown or black eyeliner to the lashline

- Coat lashes in mascara

- Using a brow brush, comb eyebrow hairs upward

- Sweep bronzer on cheekbones and temples, followed by a highlighter, and use a peach or rose blush on the apples of your cheeks

- Finish the look with a coral gloss or lipstick

#8 Quick & Easy

- Fix any complexion issues with a correcting concealer and highlighter (around the nose, chin, forehead, and eyes)

- Apply mascara, wiggling the wand back and forth to get most of the product on the base of your lashes and sweep the rest up towards the ends
