thanks!Natural make-up? ....how do I do it?
Lots of different brands will offer you similar make-up colours - and that's what's important in natural make-up; not necessarily the brand.





So in terms of the make-up itself, leaving the rest for you to go on a shopping spree for 'em (and after all thats the fun part), natural make-up can be achieved through:





- using a foundation and concealer first to hide blemishes/ even out your skin tone but you're still looking natural (get a shade that suits you; and if you don't know, ask a beauty consultant at the counter.





- for eyes, in the summer you can use brown/ bronze shades which looks natural yet attractive and suited to the season. Thus, eyeliner if used at all should be a charcoal or brown shade and eyeshadow could be a shimmery bronze - or no shadow at all (it's not completely necessary) if you really want to go natural.





- eye lash curlers will keep your eyelashes looking nice, but without looking fake. You can shade them with mascara if you like, but stick to one layer only and make sure there aren't any clumps - a big no-no.





- a tinted moisturiser instead of foundation is very natural; and if you do go with foundation, focus on the cheeks and 'stay away from the hairline'!





- a sunkissed bronze on the apples of the cheek/ the orbital just below your eyes will add to a natural summer look.





- if you've drawn attention to your eyes, complement this with a nude/ caramel gloss and remember not to smear it all over your lips; just put it on the thick part, that's all.





Ironically the natural look seems to use the most make-up but it's all for a good cause ;DNatural make-up? ....how do I do it?
just use natural shades, clinique is really good, you can get ';almost makeup'; which is like a foundation only not as heavy and obvious. also instead of black eyeliner or mascara, use brown, only if your hair is brown or blonde though. Also, it looks more natural with just the clinique blush, mascara and a touch of lip gloss.





you can get all of the stuff online but if you are unsure of the colors you might want to go to macy's, nordstrom or another store that sells clinique near you

1. Mascara- in your avatar I assume your blonde, so use lash exact by cover girl in brown.


2. Concealer- use any from mabelline that goes with your shade of skin.


3. Eye liner- use loreal's pencil black liner.


4. Eye shadow- only for special occasions, by a cream eye shadow that is the same color as your skin with a bit of sparkle to it.


5. Lip gloss- Lip smackers gloss in watermelon





hope i helped
I like bare escentuals. Its a mineral powder based product and provides a level of coverage and UV protection while looking very natural. I get it at Sephora. Try looking at www.sephora.com for a variety of lines and looks (including ';natural';).
