Natural Glam | Autumn Makeup




Natural and glam are two words that don't normally go together, especially when it comes to makeup. However, I think there's no better way to describe this particular makeup look. Natural, because it doesn’t require full coverage foundation, winged eyeliner or false lashes; and glam because it still features a bold(er)lip and a bit of eyeshadow.

This is a look I have been wearing a lot recently (not for university, but a lot in the weekends) and I really wanted to share it with you. It is also achieved using some of my old time favourite makeup products.




Let's start with the base. After moisturizing and priming my skin, I like to go with a light to medium coverage foundation. The one I use varies depending on the day and the finish I am looking for, but some of my favourites are the L'OrĂ©al Nude Magique Cushion Foundation or the Bourjois CC Cream. Then I go and apply some concealer to my under eye are (I use the Mac Pro-Longwear one in NC15) and to any redness or spot (for that I use the Too Faced Born This Way Concealer in Light).  As always I apply a tiny bit of powder and then I bring some colour back to my face with some bronzer and blush. Lastly, but certainly not least important, I apply some highlighter; my ultimate favourite is the Nars Hot Sand Highlighter.

Now moving on to the eyes. I fill in my eyebrows as usual and then I go directly onto eyeshadow. I have been loving the Becca Ombre Rouge Eyeshadow Palette as it is perfect for this time of the year. I use shade 2 all over my lid and then I apply shades 3 and 4 to my crease. Then to add a bit of shine to the look I apply a tiny bit of the Mac Pigment in Tan to the center of the lid. Lastly, in order to define the lash line a bit more I take a bit of shade 5 from the Becca Palette on a pencil brush and I apply it close to my lashes. To finish of the look, I give my lashes a good curl and apply some of the YSL Volume Effet Faux Cils Mascara (one of my all time favourites).

Then to finish of the look I'm going to use my current favourite lipstick. It is the Nars Satin Lip Pencil in Golshan and it's the most perfect burgundy I have ever seen. It look great on the lips and it's really comfortable to wear.


I hope you like this makeup look and that you enjoyed the post!
