20+ Women Who Choose “No Makeup” Makeup and Shine Brighter than Celebrities on the Cover of Glamor Magazines

Makeup is an incredible outlet for creativity for many of us. But for everyone who’s ever experimented with it a lot, the moment inevitably comes when they get tired of cut-creases, glitter, and heavy contour. At this very moment, the best thing we can do is to embrace our natural features and let them shine through minimal no-makeup makeup.

“I’m practicing doing my own makeup for my wedding. My goal is to still look like myself and keep it pretty natural.”

“I usually apply a lot of makeup, so this is new territory for me!”

“My everyday makeup: My brows are the most important part of my face since they change everything.”

“I just can’t live without a highlighter on the inner corners of my eyes. I feel like it instantly distracts attention from my dark circles.”

“I had an eye injury a month ago, so I have dark circles under my eyes. This is my updated everyday ‘no-makeup’ makeup look.”

“My ’no makeup’ makeup goal is to walk out of the bathroom after an hour and leave everyone wondering what could’ve taken me so long in there.”

“When you wanted to find out the name of your blush and it turned out to be an eyeshadow. I thought that I was using a blush the whole time.”

“No-makeup makeup look!”

“Almost all the makeup products I use aren’t expensive. I either bought them at a drugstore or got them as a gift. I hate spending money on makeup, because my skin tone changes so dramatically throughout the seasons that it’s not worth it.”

“I want to try to be naturally pretty instead of applying a lot of makeup to look pretty. I love red lips and dark liner, but I feel I need to start embracing how I look.”

“Natural beauty compared to natural makeup:”

“Sometimes it feels like I’m putting a lot of makeup on but when I compare the before and after, the difference is very subtle.”

“Before and after ‘no-makeup’ makeup look. After many years of fighting acne, I’m finally happy with my skin.”

“My everyday ‘no-makeup’ makeup for hooded eyes. The most important thing is to make the shadow from the crease lighter, the crease itself smaller, and the eyelid bigger. And if you curl your eyelashes, it’ll change a lot!”

“Been feeling a little blah lately, so decided to put on a little makeup today. A soft natural fall look.”

“Finally getting the hang of this natural/no makeup look.”

“No makeup makeup (also no brushes used!)”

“I’ve been using eyeshadow as a substitute for eyeliner recently. I prefer minimalist makeup and it makes it so soft and subtle.”

“Everyday look.”

“I needed to show the younger women that it’s okay to age! So I came home and literally applied minimal makeup. Take your uniqueness and love it.”

“My skin has been looking rough lately, so practicing a day-to-day no makeup (ish) look. I always feel it looks a bit nothing when I do neutral but that’s kinda the point isn’t it.”

“Tried some warmer orange tones with my every day natural makeup.”

Do you prefer natural or bright makeup? What kind of makeup do you apply every day?
