Looking your best natural self does not need expensive skin treatments or regular trips to the salon. The secret lies in confidence coupled with a few essential makeup products to sport the barely-there makeup look.

The country’s leading cosmetics brand, Ever Bilena, shares some useful tips and essential makeup products to keep in your makeup bag to pull off the “no makeup” makeup look:

Tip #1: Wash, rinse, moisturize

To truly achieve the all-natural makeup, forego the foundation. Instead, prep the skin by cleansing it with your preferred facial wash then exfoliate to brighten and smoothen your complexion. Finish off with a moisturizer and sunscreen so that you face is protected and fully hydrated.

     

Tip #2: Conceal

The trick to a healthy and fresh complexion is spot-concealing any blemishes and redness using your concealer brush. However, for dark circles, use your ring finger to pat on the concealer as it has the lightest pressure.  

Tip #3: Groom the brows and lashes

One way of opening up the eyes is by grooming the brows. This way, you only need to brush up the brow hairs using a spoolie or brow mascara and you’re good to go. Add definition to the lashes by swiping it with mascara.

 

Tip #4: Choose shades that are close to your skin color

For bright, wide-awake eyes, apply eye shadow that’s close to your skin tone. Your safest bet is light brown. Gently apply shadow from the lash line and blend upwards, fading as it gets closer to your brow.

For cheeks, cream blush easily gives the natural-looking glow. With a synthetic brush or your fingers, apply blush on the apples of the cheeks and blend upward toward hairline. This makeup trick instantly makes you look youthful.

Tip #5: Go for Ever Bilena’s Matte Nude Lipstick

The last step to complete the barely-there makeup look is a good nude lipstick. Luckily, Ever Bilena offers a new line of matte nude lipsticks where each stick is infused with antioxidants and moisturizer so the lips feel soft, smooth and supple despite the matte formula. Retailing at P165, it comes in six colors namely Dolce, Amore, Fia, Bellissima, Caramello and Baci. Each shade is perfect for different skin tones.
