It's been a long time since I've worn makeup (aside from dabbing a little concealer under my eyes to drop out of school early this morning). After almost a year of working and staying at home, you can rightly assume that my makeup bag in the corner of my bathroom has collected cobwebs. As someone who has never left the house without mascara and lipstick, I tended to miss my makeup!
While I was primarily focused on skin care in 2020 – which is certainly not a bad thing – I'm officially ready to revitalize my skin this year face again with makeup. Because the reality is a little makeup, I feel strong, confident, and ready to tackle the day – even if it's just a simple look. In fact, I'm all about simple makeup looks with little effort right now – something that makes me look and feel good without taking too much time or effort.
Today I wanted to share some of the effortless makeup looks that I have saved on Instagram that I would like to copy for myself this year. Take a look below for inspiration to reach for your makeup bag again.
As someone who loves a glowing complexion, I can't wait to get into rotation again. Similar to this look, I dab a little on my cheekbones and forehead bones and finish the glowing look with a subtle strip of eyeliner.
I am always amazed at how a little rosy blush can invigorate our complexion in no time. I'll go for one with a creamier texture that can easily slide on the skin for a moister look. Team it up with a berry lip tint and you have a nice, simple, and low-maintenance look.
A good base works wonders in keeping your skin looking even and preventing redness or blemishes. Use it along with an easy-to-mix concealer and complete the look with a pretty pink lipstick – a simple and effortless look won't take time.
If you're like me and you can't feel without your mascara, this beauty look is likely to grab your attention. Keep the rest of your complexion in a neutral color palette and pop your eyes with a voluminous mascara, brow enhancer, and eyeliner if you want to go a step further.
A subtle, but eye-catching, bold lip will instantly energize your look. Team it up with a bronzer, soft eyeshadow, and small mascara for a simple, no-fuss look.
French girls know a thing or two about effortless, low-key makeup, and this soft, matte look from Sabina Socol is great for achieving that makeup look without makeup.
Sometimes all you need is a lip gloss and bold eye shadow to revive your complexion. So simple and yet so brave.
