Nude natural look... oopppsss... I should have use my stuff instead...

This look is very-very suitable, for sunny country especially Malaysia... I wonder why people are too crazy to look white, while being gold or even bronze is still attractive... this goes to all tanned skin girls out there... Instead of trying to look fairer and pinkier, how about looking like a gold-goddess, or bronze-maiden... I would say this look take not much effort, and it can be an everyday make-up...


So the effort is getting the perfect base...This is how I do this look.

(I did this on my sis... too lazy to do on myself)
1. Apply your base makeup (liquid or powder foundation, or BB cream... whatsoever but must match your skintone accordingly). It is advisable to forgone pinkish skinbase or anything you use that make your face pink (forget about pink radiance for this look)
2. If your not satisfy with base go back with the foundation, powder or concealer where is necessary - it is better to start out lighter, then just layer on more product on spots that need more coverage.
3. Bronzers on the hollow of your cheeks.
4. Apply matte eyeshadow, closest to your skintone but lighter, something in light peach, yellow,or beige, all over your eye lid from lashes up to your brow.
5. With bronzers, or bronze-like eyeshadow, but not too dark, apply using eyeshadow brush on the crease of the eye, this is to accentuate the shape of eye and sockets.
6. Reapply, more concentrated the matte lighter eyeshadow on the middle of the eyelid, just under the brow and on the inner corner of the eyes.

(mind her ungroomed brows... but actually her brows are presentable enough)
7. Top it off at the same spot with vanilla shimmery eyeshadow, or gold or bonze (better for darker skin)... you want your skin in the yellow, golden spectrum. Blend well!
8. Apply a nude blusher on the apple of the cheeks and and apply the highlighter on the cheekbones and nose bridge.
9. Line the lashline only on the outer corner with brown eyeliner and to make it stay, top it of with dark brown eyeshadow.
10. Fill in the lip with liplinergo for nude toward orange, brown, peach but not nude pink or red.
11. Fill your lips with lipstick – again, go for colour toward orange, peach, coral. Probably gloss on top of it, I know many people love gloss.
12. Curl lash , appy lash primer and black mascara , but not too much though.







The finish look (this my sis-she has good skin....~~envy)
Okay, this is not really a statement look, the features are in mid-tone or nude, on the eyes, lips and cheek. There are key items to this look, so I just put out stuff that I used and recommended:-

First : A great BASE Makeup ... I use Revlon Colorstay Liquid Foundation RM55
Second: Nude Blusher and Higlighter ... I use MAC Mineralize Blush in Warm Soul RM95, MAC Fafi Iridescent Powder in Verve-acious RM 80
Third : BROWN eyeliner... not black!
Fourth : Nude and Coral-like lipcolour... lipstick or lipgloss is up to preference. I use MAC Satin Lipstick in Alibi RM 67
Fifth : Light Shimmery Eyeshadow... in vanilla, gold or beige...


PS: As you can see, this is just my way of doing it and it can look too much effort for an everyday look. But all this effort result to the best result you could ever get, like you can how define my sister's lip is and her cheeks are structured. however some people are in a hurry so certain stuff can be left out and be optional.
