Natual-Makeup Face Of The Day

I am positively surprised of my zero effort makeup today. I normally add a brown eyeshadow in the corner and outer crease of my eyes for a somewhat natural look, but this time decided to use Bordeaux eyeshadow and eye pencil. I usually make an inner cat-eye in some shape or form, but thanks to putting the ordeaux in the nose crease I needed no extra lines.
I have no mascara on as well!


This is perhaps the most natural and close to my no-makeup face I've ever got, minus the brows, third eye, lips and the one and only - concealer!
I will probably make a no-makeup face one day, for Halloween maybe, would be appropriate...
Fun Fact: the reason I wear concealer is because I have permanent red-pink circles under my eyes. I mentioned people mistaken be for being sick or tired when without it numerous times, which has led me to wear it non stop. The bordeaux looks pencil looks very much like my dark circles, however I find putting it under my eyes actually compliments me and shapes my eyes without being too bold like brown or black. Curious things, our bodies are...

I only look sad, I'm just anguished inside.


I felt very pretty today!

    I'm jealous you can feel pretty with minimal make-up, but then again, it's not that surprising, with this beautiful face of yours D:

    It makes your eyes look big! That's a nice lip color too. And your brows are perfect

      Thanks! I still try to make my eyes big whenever I can. The lipstick is like a very big lipliner pen I got from essence yesterday, it's not bad actually. And that was definitely a good eyebrow day.

    Looking gorgeous! I do really like the eye pencil colour, and I agree that the lip looks great.

    You are very pretty and a natural beauty.
    I don't like to put fondation or even concealer because they all feel sticky and I feel like my skin can't breathe. So I came to accept my blue veins and circles. But I can understand one dosen't feel ok with circles. :)

      I completely agree, I hate wearing makeup most of the time, I just wear concealer and it looks natural enough. But society has played its cruel tricks on me..

    Nothing wrong with pink undereyes though and it might even avoid conversations you dont want to do! - on the other hand, this makeup here looks great on you!
