If you’re keeping makeup to a minimal, make sure every detail is polished. You’ll want your skin to look flawlessly radiant, not oily. Brows should be full and if you have to use an eye shadow, go for a neutral shade. When it comes to lining your eyes, go for a more delicate shade or a fine-tipped liquid liner for precision. Brush two coats of mascara (if you’re looking to get naturally defined lashes, try shu uemura’s ultimate natural mascara, $50) and finish off the look with either a lipstick or lipgloss that is two shades from your natural lip colour. Try to avoid products with shimmer or glitter for this look. Photos: Showbit.
