4 reasons to fall in love with nude
The main thing that distinguishes this type of makeup is moderation. Cosmetics are used to a minimum and only to slightly tweak the appearance. At the same time, it takes a little time to prepare the image for leaving the house: as a rule, applying funds does not require special skills.
Although the face is painted very moderately and modestly, with the help of a couple of strokes of the brush and sponges, you can prepare for the evening event.
Makeup artists and image makers highlight several undeniable advantages, thanks to which nude is loved by millions of fashionistas:
- Suitable for any face shape and any skin type. Correctly selected foundation and base neutralize excessive grease and dryness. And contouring tools will allow you to hide the flaws in your appearance and emphasize your advantages.
- Can be used at any age. If young girls can easily wear bright glitters and shimmery shadows, then they will play a cruel joke with adult ladies. But the correct nude, on the contrary, will refresh the face and even "rejuvenate" for 10 years.
- Doesn't require a lot of cosmetics. You don't have to spend money on endless glitters and shadows. It is enough once to choose a suitable shade of funds and buy only it.
- To correct imperfections, you can once learn the technique of applying and shading cosmetics and use it every day. For this type of makeup, you do not need to graduate from a makeup school or any courses; even beginners will be able to create a gentle everyday look.
Simple rules to become a queen
Like any technology, nude make-up has its own rules. Only by taking into account and following them, you can get that reflection in the mirror that will arouse admiration.
Here are the key points to consider when applying makeup:
- The main secret is perfect, well-groomed skin. To make any nude look great, you need to regularly use a moisturizer and choose the right foundation, powder and concealer.
- All color shades should be muted. Brightness should be left for other situations. Therefore, a must-have of any fashionista is shades of gray, beige, sand and lipsticks of peach or delicate rose color.
- Glossy textures are best left for the evening. And matte coatings are more suitable for work. In addition, they are more stable - lipstick or eyeshadow will last all day.
- The eyebrows are sure to be emphasized - they set the tone for the whole image. At the same time, you do not need to simultaneously brightly paint both eyes and lips - for the evening it may be appropriate, but in the daytime it most often looks ugly.
- The perfect make-up will provide quality lighting. It is best to work by the window. This will make all the colors clearly visible and you can check the quality of the shading.
Only good means will create that very "naked face" effect, when it seems to others that the girl is not wearing makeup at all.
Good cosmetics is the head of everything
One of the most unforgivable mistakes many girls make is buying low-quality products. As a result, the lipstick dries quickly and clogs into the folds of the lips, the tone "turns red" in the evening, and the mascara crumbles.
Therefore, before learning the techniques of nude makeup, it is important to learn how to choose the right tools.
Here's what you might need for a make-up:
- Cream, powder and corrector for problem areas. It is important to choose light textures that will smoothly even out the tone, but will not form a dense mask. The tone of the foundation must fully match the tone, but the corrector is selected for a specific area. Green is used to mask pimples, and orange to hide circles from lack of sleep.
- For an accent on the eyes, choose shadows. The matte texture is ideal, which does not crumble and is easy to blend. Universal shades - beige, gray and peach.
- For the lips, you need a nude lipstick and a pencil. They must be the same tone, otherwise this combination will look vulgar.
Not all fashionistas know how to choose a palette. For a foundation, the rule is simple: a small amount of the product is applied to the cheekbones or wrist and compared to the skin tone.
It is more difficult with lipstick - each color type has its own recommendations. Even before going to the store, it is better for a girl to clarify which group she belongs to - Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter.
There are different trends
Even though it seems like nude makeup always standard and the same, every year new trends appear among professional makeup artists and amateurs.
2021 is no exception - this season also has stylish features. You can study the trends in more detail from photos from fashion shows or from beauty bloggers.
The most popular trend that has captured makeup artists around the world is furry eyebrows.
If earlier the girl diligently combed her hair and fixed them with gel and wax, now noticeable negligence is relevant. The hairs are directed in different directions, due to which the width of the eyebrow seems even larger than it actually is.
Another trend is the emphasis on the cheekbones. The attractive cheeks are accentuated by gentle blush. Peach and coral colors are in fashion.
By the way, all over the world, makeup artists use a secret from Korea: blush can be smeared not only on the cheekbones, but also on the lower eyelid. So the girl will seem more young.
If there are no pronounced cheekbones, you can draw them. You will need a contouring kit and a special brush.
If your favorite part of the face is shining eyes, you can highlight them with an eyelash arrow.
Here the girl has several options:
- a clear but thin arrow drawn with liquid eyeliner;
- a slightly shaded pencil of the same tone as the eyelashes themselves;
- permanent makeup that will last a couple of years.
In 2021-2022, red lipstick is relevant. Classic scarlet is not the best color for a discreet daytime make-up. However, everything is decided by a specific shade: for every day it is quite possible to choose a lighter or muted red.
We teach materiel
So, when the girl figured out the peculiarities of makeup, chose the right cosmetics of the right tones and prepared all the tools, the question must have arisen before her - what kind of techniques are there?
After all, different makeup artists mean completely different things when they mention nude.
Most popular techniques:
- Smoky Eyes - the use of several shades in the same color scheme on the upper and lower eyelids at once. Necessarily with careful shading.
- Contouring - correcting the face with dark and light powder. Allows you to visually enlarge and reduce the nose, cheekbones, hide the second chin or flews.
Different looks for brunettes and blondes
Hair color is the simplest guideline when choosing cosmetics.
A more restrained make-up is recommended for blondes, and juicy shades are allowed for brunettes.
Owners of chic blond hair should take a closer look at coral and peach lipsticks.
And brown-haired women will probably suit orange-brown and light scarlet.
Ah, those eyes opposite ...
When choosing a palette for the eyes, you can focus on this plate:
| Green | Warm palette: ivory, beige, all shades of dark green |
| Brown | Plum, gray, brown, burgundy colors |
| Blue or gray | Brown, pink, terracotta and earthy tones |
Not sure about the correctness of your choice?
Nobody can go wrong with beige eyeshadows - they are universal.
How to rejuvenate yourself by 10 years?
How many older women know what techniques are in vogue now?
Most likely, only a few. However, many people want to look good. Therefore, make-up artists have proposed a special method of applying cosmetics, which can rejuvenate for 10 or more years.
Taking into account some of the features of the face oval and the condition of the skin, you can remove with the help of shadows drooping eyelid, using tonal means - tighten the oval... And the right color scheme will not make you look out of place.
So what are these rules?
More attention will have to be paid to the base: you need a persistent and smoothing one. A light concealer is applied over it. It can be used to highlight the bridge of the nose and lips. The dark concealer will hide the unevenness of the skin.
Since the delicate skin of the eyelids is most likely not as smooth as in youth, any pronounced arrows will instantly give out age.
To make the eyes look brighter, it is allowed to add a little glitter to the upper eyelid. It is still better to choose a satin finish. Banned - gloss, metallic, sparkles.
For lips - only natural, natural shades. A small amount of gloss is acceptable, but it is important not to overdo it.
Getting started: everything is simple and clear
Even a novice makeup artist will definitely cope with this option. The step-by-step instructions are as follows:
- Prepare the skin - remove all impurities with a foam, rub with a toner, remove dead particles with a scrub, and then apply first a moisturizer and then a primer.
- Using a slightly damp sponge, spread the foundation so that the coating is thin and the borders are barely noticeable. Pat the corrector into the under-eye area with patting movements of your fingers.
- Accentuate eyebrows with pencil or shadows.
- Apply blush or bronzer to cheekbones.
- Apply your favorite mascara to your eyelashes.
- Lightly highlight the lips with a translucent gloss.
At this stage, the makeup can already be considered complete. But if you wish, you can still work on the upper eyelid - make a smokey-eye in nude tones, draw an arrow.
In the new season, small glitters are increasingly considered nude: mainly on the temples or on the eyelids.
You can hardly come to work with a strict dress code with such decor. But when getting ready for a walk or a date, it is quite possible to experiment. The main rule: the color of the sequins should match the color of the shadows or be one tone darker.

Makeup artists revealed all the secrets
If possible, it is worth completing the "Makeup for yourself" course. The professional explains in detail how to work with the student's data: select a palette, hold brushes.
To always look perfect, you can use some tricks that experienced craftsmen reveal.
Tools play an important role:
- for a foundation - a flat brush;
- for powder - wide;
- for shadows - beveled and applicator;
- for lips - thin and narrow.
The second secret is the unconventional use of funds. For example, lipstick can be applied not only to the lips, but also to the cheekbones and eyelids. Of course, here it needs to be shaded well. But the result will be a fresh, rested face.
Another way to remove traces of fatigue is a pearly white highlighter, which spreads over the inner corner of the eye and blends well. After it, you need to carefully paint your eyelashes with mascara: not only from above, but also from below. And be sure to follow the movement of the hand: so that each eyelash is coal-black, the brush is carried out in a zigzag manner.
Make-up artists suggest applying not only blush on the cheekbones, but also a transparent shine. This technique will allow you to slightly correct the oval of the face if you do not have a strobing and contouring kit at hand.
Image makers and stylists advise you to always have a package of matting wipes with you in order to remove grease on time.So the makeup will definitely last until the evening in its original form.
