The Best Natural Makeup Look for Glowing Skin
Master the no-makeup makeup look with our step-by-step natural glowy makeup routine for radiant, healthy-looking skin.
Introduction
Glowing, radiant skin never goes out of style. The natural makeup trend—also known as the "no-makeup makeup look"—emphasizes your best features without looking overly done. Whether you’re heading to brunch or a casual date, this effortless beauty style enhances your natural glow. Here’s how to nail it with Floradisse’s expert guide.
Step 1: Start with Skincare
The key to a glowy look starts with skincare.
-
Cleanser: Use a gentle, hydrating cleanser
-
Toner: Apply a hydrating toner or facial mist
-
Serum: Choose one with Vitamin C or hyaluronic acid for brightness
-
Moisturizer: Opt for a dewy-finish cream to plump skin
-
SPF: Always use sunscreen as your final prep step
Step 2: Use a Glowy Primer
A luminizing primer creates a radiant base.
Top Tip: Focus on high points of the face—cheekbones, nose bridge, and forehead—for a subtle glow-from-within effect.
Step 3: Choose a Light Base
-
Tinted Moisturizer, BB Cream, or Skin Tint: Use a lightweight formula that evens out tone without masking the skin
-
Application: Use a damp beauty sponge or fingers for a seamless, skin-like finish
Step 4: Conceal Strategically
Use concealer only where needed:
-
Under eyes
-
Around the nose
-
On blemishes
Blend well to keep the natural look intact.
Step 5: Cream Products for a Luminous Finish
-
Cream Blush: Tap onto cheeks for a fresh flush
-
Cream Bronzer/Contour: Add warmth and definition subtly
-
Cream Highlighter: Apply on cheekbones, brow bone, and cupid’s bow
Cream products blend into the skin better and create a more natural effect.
Step 6: Define with a Light Touch
-
Brows: Fill in sparse areas with a brow pencil or gel
-
Eyes: Use neutral cream shadow or soft brown tones
-
Mascara: One coat is enough to open up the eyes
Step 7: Finish with Lips & Glow Mist
-
Tinted Lip Balm or Gloss: Go for a natural pink or nude shade
-
Setting Mist: Use a glow-enhancing spray to set makeup and refresh throughout the day
Bonus Tips for Lasting Glow
-
Exfoliate 2x/week to keep skin smooth
-
Mix liquid highlighter with foundation for all-over radiance
-
Avoid heavy powders—opt for luminous finishes instead
