S/S '13 Makeup Trends: 'No Makeup Makeup': Drugstore Edit

Hey Guys!


I've decided to do a series of posts based around the drugstore products you would require to recreate the on trend makeup looks for this season so you can get a catwalk ready look for less!





The first trend I've decided to write about is 'no makeup makeup'- because this is a really fresh faced, natural look which is easy to recreate and can be worn to a variety of places, from school/work to a party (giving you a laid back but still pretty appearance).



A key feature of this look is skin which is perfectly powdered in the right places (T-zone) but still has a glowy effect on the cheeks to give a youthful feel and stop you from looking unnaturally matte. Additionally, a natural foundation and concealer have been combined to create a flawless base.

A light natural toned blush should be swept across the cheeks, and the eyebrows can be lightly filled in if needed. Then a product such as a tinted lip balm can be used to add a 'sheen' to the lips.



Finally, a brown gel eyeliner (or black on darker skin tones) can be used on the top lash-line to create the illusion of thicker eyelashes, and a nude eyeliner in the lower waterline for a 'wide awake' look. Finish with a few coats of a non-clumpy mascara. 


Drugstore Product Picks:



These products are all great on their own but ,when combined, will create the dewy-natural finish you're after so you'll look as good as the models at London Fashion Week for a fraction of the price!
