Nude look style rules
The basis of such a make-up is a few simple secrets:
- Only pastel shades close to the woman's color type are used;
- Colors are carefully shaded. There are no transitions between shadows, pencils and tonal bases;
- Smoothness of lines is observed. No sharp arrows, clear eyeliners, contrasting shadows;

The perfect bow in stages
Stage One: Perfect Skin
So, let's start creating a masterpiece. First of all, we put our face in order. By what means is the color evened out?
- Base or base. Should have a shade similar to its native, light texture. It lays down softly, perfectly shaded. Prepares space for the main tone;
- Tone cream. Its colors may vary depending on the season. For example, in the summer, when you are tanned, you can choose a darker tube. And in winter, find one that is close to your native scale.
- Proofreader and concealer... These funds perfectly mask flaws and imperfections: acne, blackheads, pimples, age spots.
Combine several shades. If you look closely at the face, some parts of it are slightly lighter, others are darker. Achieve complete naturalness.
Advice! How to find your native color? Take 3-4 jars and apply strokes to the chin. Attention, not on the back of the hand, as everyone used to do it! Then, in daylight, determine the subtone that merges with the body. This is what you need.
Second step: paint the eyes
Eyes play a huge role in the appearance of any person. Women's eyes have always attracted the opposite sex, made them drown in their depths and were remembered for a lifetime. That is why, even in makeup without makeup, they must be painted over very carefully. And, we repeat, absolutely imperceptibly.
Put aside bright and black pencils, eyeliners, shadows. Choose beige, cream, pinkish, gray, or brown. Remember the type. Shadows are only soft, matte, pastel. No glitter. Also, pearlescent compositions are not suitable, because they look catchy. The eyelid is not burdened with many colors. One or two is enough:
- Comb your eyelashes with a brush;
- Draw light shadows on the brush, shake slightly. Cover the movable eyelid with one stroke;
- With a shade one tone darker, outline the orbital in a semicircle (the area above the fold, with the entry into it). With one light sweep. Ideally, you shouldn't notice this shadow;
- The paint is not rubbed to the eyebrows, to the temples, not applied to the brow space;
- With the same color, draw a line over the upper lashes. Press very lightly on the brush. A slight haze is formed, without visible color;
- Do not touch the lower cilia. If you wish, you can also bring it down, but most likely it will become very noticeable;
- Curl your eyelashes with a special clip;
- Finish with gray or brown mascara. But in the classic version, nude look does not accept this attribute.
For applying eyeshadow, it is best to take a narrow brush with delicate fibers. In contrast to the applicator, it grinds the pigment more accurately and more transparently.
Third level: turn of eyebrows
Beautiful, even and symmetrical eyebrows solve the problem of completeness of the appearance. They make their mistress stylish and well-groomed. They need regular care, correction, painting.
- Comb and straighten the eyebrows;
- If necessary, pluck hairs that protrude beyond the desired contour;
- If the arcs are naturally thick and dense, they don't even need to be tinted. Just follow the smoothness and symmetry of the lines;
- When they are rare, uneven, with bald patches, correction is required. A hard, non-greasy pencil, special fondant or matte eyeshadow will work. Their color should be close to their own. Blondes are allowed to choose a subtone a couple of shades darker;
- Do not disturb the natural shape of the arches.
On a note! Have you ever done permanent eyebrow makeup? It is very convenient and long lasting. You don't have to keep track of color and shape every day. There are different tattooing techniques. The most fashionable genre is suitable for no makeup - powdery or spray method. The dye is injected under the skin at a minimum distance, in small, frequent dots. It seems that the eyebrows have been tinted with colored powder. It looks very natural.
Stage four: paying attention to the lips
In the usual make up, the rule is to highlight only one area of the face, for example, the eyes or lips. Nude make-ups don't emphasize anything.
How to apply lipstick? Do I need to do this? We read below:
- They can be left unpainted if the natural tone is juicy. Also, if the lips are plump. In simple terms, if they are, so bright. Any cosmetics will only attract eyes to them, and we strive to avoid this;
- Discard contour pencils, any eyeliner;
- Be sure to apply foundation on them. After it, any pigment will seem more natural;
- Lipstick color should be from the appropriate range: pinkish, peach, light coral, soft cream;
- It is optimal to use a non-glossy gloss or hygienic fondant;
- A matte product is perfect.By the way, in this case, a more expressive tone is allowed: pale cherry, light scarlet;
- It is recommended to paint the surface with a brush.
Good to know! In order not to overdo it with the amount of fondant and paint it with a thin layer, proceed as follows: apply the pigment to the middle of the lip and blend it to the corners with your fingers.
The final step: powder, blush
At this stage, the make-up is finished. They correct the nuances, check if everything is smooth, if there are any shortcomings. A wide brush with blush is used to highlight the cheekbones, temples, chin. Use less pigmented products, no reddish, yellowish or gray undertones. Let them be a couple of shades darker than foundation, from the same line.
It is allowed to go over the face with reflective powder. But do not be zealous so as not to shine like before the New Year's disco.
By the way, do you know what a pinning top is? This is a special spray that is sprayed onto the face with a complete make-up. It prolongs the life of your bow, does not let the tone "crawl", and the shadows smear. This is one of the little secrets that professional makeup artists regularly use.
Makeup without makeup is a great opportunity to showcase your natural appearance. Show the world her charm. The beauty of the natural cut of the eyes, the sensual contour of the lips. If you are accustomed to wearing bright makeup, at first it will be difficult for you to go out “without a cosmetic bag”. Over time, you will definitely get used to it.
