BEAUTY Eyes Matte eye powder has a classic texture that works well on any skin type to get a natural look. When applying mascara, start applying from the root and wiggle the wand back and forth at the lash base. Focus less on the tips because It’s the mascara near the roots not the tips -that gives the illusion of length. If you want to add volume to your lashes, use individual false lashes because they look more natural than a full fringe lash. You should opt for a regular mascara for a natural look. Make your eyes pop by sweeping on a dark shadow where the brow bone meets the crease. Lips Remember to exfoliate your lips and apply a lip balm often. When choosing a shade of lipstick colour for nude looks, it’s important to keep skin tone in mind. Try a peachy, pink or totally nude shade if you have fair skin. Go for a peachy beige, light brown or something warmer in colour if you have a brown/ dark skin. Use the similar colour of lip liner with the shade of lipstick you chose to make it more natural and stay for longer as well. Lips should be neither overly glossy nor completely matte. Don’t forget to add your lip gloss very lightly after finishing with your lipstick. Stay away from pale beiges, creams or white tones when trying to get a natural look.
