8 Foolproof Tips for Barely-There Makeup That Looks Effortless

Everyone wants the “no-makeup” look. Surprisingly, getting that “I woke up like this” face can take a lot more work. Unless you’re Beyoncé or Lili Reinhart. They’re just gifted. Finding the right products to wear when you’re going for natural-looking makeup can be more complex than you think. You don’t want anything too cakey, too bright, or too dark. You can’t go too heavy on the contour, either. Basically, you don’t want your makeup to be noticeable enough that you’re getting complimented on your shade of lipstick. The “natural” look does indeed require some makeup application—and some skill, too. The good news is that it shouldn’t take as much time, especially if you have a many-step makeup routine.

For starters, we always recommend wearing colors close to your natural skin tone, or ones that enhance it. You don’t want a situation where your face looks like it’s a different shade than your neck. You should have a trusted concealer and a light-weight foundation, preferably powder. When it comes to eye makeup, it should also be subtle—you’re going to need to leave the eyeliner in your cosmetics bag for this look.

Below are more beginner-friendly tips and tricks along with some of our favorite beauty products for getting your no-makeup look just right.

Our mission at STYLECASTER is to bring style to the people, and we only feature products we think you’ll love as much as we do. Please note that if you purchase something by clicking on a link within this story, we may receive a small commission of the sale.

Moisturize First

Creating a clean base for your makeup is very important. After washing your face, moisturizer benefits your skin by hydrating and promoting anti-aging benefits. By bathing your skin in nutrients before applying coverage, you’re creating a smoother palette that your foundation or concealer can seamlessly blend into.

The Ordinary.

The Ordinary Natural Moisturizing… $13

CeraVe.

Buy: CeraVe Facial Moisturizing Lotion $11.89

Keep Your Coverage Minimal

Erase dark circles, fine lines, or blemishes with a medium coverage concealer. This will disguise imperfections and leave your skin looking flawless, or in other words—like you found a secretly amazing Instagram filter for your selfie.

NARS.

NARS Mini Radiant Creamy Concealer $13

buy it

Benefit Cosmetics.

Benefit Boi-ing Cakeless Concealer $22

Stick to powder or light foundation

When your goal is a barely-there finish, we recommend using a powder or an airy liquid foundation. Thick, cakey makeup doesn’t exactly support the illusion we’re going for. Be sure to apply evenly with a brush or sponge for an even, non-streaky, finish.

bareMinerals.

bareMinerals ORIGINAL Foundation Broad… $32

buy it

Covergirl.

Buy: Covergirl, Clean Fresh Skin Milk Foundation $9.98

Keep your blush subtle

Cream blushes work well because you can build and blend as much as you like for dramatic or subtle color payoff. Depending on your skin color, blush colors will vary, but peaches tend to look great on everyone. Apply to the natural cheekbone line where pink undertones normally show. For most of us, that’s just under the outside of the eye and going toward the temple.

MILK MAKEUP.

MILK MAKEUP Glow Oil Lip + Cheek $15

buy it

Fenty Beauty.

Fenty Cheeks Out Freestyle $20

buy it

Opt for neutral shadows

Sweep a neutral color over your lids for a muted but beautiful eye moment. Choose a color that is just a shade or two darker than your skin tone; anything too dark will take you into dramatic territory.

Ulta.

Naked3 Eyeshadow Palette $54

buy it

NYX Cosmetics.

Buy: NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Ultimate Shadow Palette $14.04

Find your favorite nude lip color

When choosing a lip color, go for the light pinks, peaches, and sand colors. You could also nix the lipstick and swipe on a little gloss for an even more pared-down pout.

NYX.

Buy: NYX PROFESSIONAL MAKEUP Butter Gloss $3.99

Neutrogena.

Buy: Neutrogena Hydro Boost Moisturizing Lip Gloss $7.12

Swipe on just a little mascara (if any).

A thin layer of mascara is all you need. You still want your eyes to stand out, so if you have light lashes, a layer of mascara may be a good idea. If you naturally have dark, full lashes you might want to skip altogether.

Maybelline.

Buy: Maybelline Lash Sensational Washable Mascara $6

L’Oreal.

Buy: L'Oreal Paris Bambi Eye Washable Mascara $9.97

Step away from the liner

While eyeliner is great for a dramatic eye, it doesn’t fit with the natural makeup look. Don’t apply any eyeliner on the top or bottom. Not only will your face look naturally stunning but you’ll love how easy taking off your makeup is!

Justin & Hailey Bieber Can’t Get Enough Of These Chic, Affordable Face Masks

If you told me in 2019 that I’d be—once again—writing about Justin and Hailey Bieber’s street style in 2020, I wouldn’t have batted an eye. But if you told me that I’d be talking about Justin and Hailey Bieber’s face masks, I’d probably have done a sitcom-inspired spit take. The fact of the matter is, we had no idea we’d all be styling protective face masks with our cutest outfits this year. Yet, here we are, working to make masks a part of our daily lives—without sacrificing style.

When it comes to masks, Justin and Hailey Bieber have their look down pat. I didn’t think anyone could have a signature mask style, but the Biebers definitely do. The couple typically sports either a black or white face mask, along with their can’t-miss street style looks—some sort of Drew or Yeezy ensemble for Justin and usually a casual-but-cool denim outfit for Hailey.

When you look closely at their ‘fits while out and about, though, you’ll notice that both Justin and Hailey seem to always wear face masks from the same place. (We stan a consistent couple!) I did the zooming in for you and discovered that their masks are from evolvetogether—a brand that makes chic and affordable disposable face masks. And yes, this means that you can shop them for yourself to get the look.

STYLECASTER | Justin and Hailey Bieber Face Masks

Though there are now plenty of fun, patterned and reusable masks on the market, occasionally you just need a classic solid color (Black and white go with everything!) and a pack of disposable masks you can throw away after they’ve been worn. We’ve all been testing out different masks to find what works best for us, and sometimes that means keeping a stockpile of both reusable cloth face masks and disposable ones. Yes, reusable face masks are important to have as a sustainable option, but these disposable evolvetogether masks are the next best thing—and have a bit more protection than some cloth masks.

I Am a Voter Face Masks $8.97

buy it

The Biebers are seen wearing the black iteration of the evolvetogether masks quite often—and the brand just released a new version that’s definitely worth snagging this fall. The I Am a Voter face masks (which come in a pack of seven, by the way) will help you remind the world that you use your power to vote, and you’re not afraid to encourage others to do the same. This particular mask also features the coordinates of Independence Hall in Philadelphia, the birthplace of democracy. Geographical nerds unite!

APEX/MEGA.

Of course, sometimes Hailey Bieber will slip on something a little different—including the evolvetogether mask in white. These NYC face masks are marked with the global coordinates of New York City. The brand wants it to serve as a reminder that we’re all connected no matter where we live. Plus, you can’t deny that the white goes perfectly with Hailey’s blazer and denim cut-offs look. Even masked up, she’s still a street style queen.

In addition to the chic exterior, the evolvetogether face masks are medical-grade. (!!) They feature three layers with extra filtration, a hidden nose bridge (for comfort!) and are shipped in biodegradable and recyclable packaging.

Amazonia Face Masks $8.97

buy it

If neither white nor black is your thing, the Amazonia face mask is here to please. This set of seven is marked with the coordinates of the Amazon River—reminding us all to protect one of Earth’s greatest resources. In fact, for each purchased, evolvetogether donates masks and proceeds to One Tree Planted, to plant trees and protect volunteers.

Each set of masks—which are available in packs of 30 as well as seven, FYI—also come with a sustainable mask keeper, so you can have all your masks at-hand without having to stuff them into a plastic bag or let them float around the bottom of your purse. They’re a total game-changer and approved by Justin and Hailey Bieber—and that’s good enough for me!

Court documents now reveal that Angelina Jolie’s co-star will testify in her custody trial with Brad Pitt, reports Entertainment Tonight. A witness list, originally filed on September 21, was obtained by the outlet on October 1—just days ahead of Pitt and Jolie’s upcoming trial date of October 5—confirming earlier rumors surrounding Pitt’s witness.

As for the witness in question, Pitt, 56, reportedly called upon Jillian Armenante, 52, to testify on his behalf. In 1999, Armenante starred as Cynthia Crowley alongside Jolie, now 45, in Girl Interrupted. The actresses later shared another co-starring run in 2007 for the film A Mighty Heart. Pitt’s 21-person witness list reveals that Armenante is expected to testify “regarding her interactions and communications with and observations of Petitioner [Jolie], Respondent [Pitt] and/or the children,” reports ET. According to the outlet, Pitt’s list also includes “multiple psychologists.” Meanwhile, Jolie’s list only includes seven names—all of whom reportedly overlap with Pitt’s list, including domestic violence speaker Alyce LaViolette.

News of Armenante’s upcoming testimony is just the latest development in Pitt and Jolie’s complicated custody trial. The pair share six children: Maddox, 19, Pax, 16, Zahara, 15, Shiloh, 14, and 12-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox. Pitt and Jolie have been working on co-parenting ever since The Maleficent star filed for divorce in September 2016, following an alleged altercation between Pitt and his eldest son, Maddox. They were married for just over two years before Jolie’s filing, although their relationship officially began in 2004.

All these years later, however, tensions continue to rise over their children’s custody trial. In August, Jolie delayed their originally scheduled court date after she requested that the judge overseeing her and her estranged husband’s case, Judge John W. Ourderkirk, be replaced due to his past relationship with Pitt’s attorney, Anne C. Kiley. A source at the time told Us Weekly that Pitt believed Jolie has “gone way too far” with their divorce, and had no other choice but to “fight back” against her motion.

His court documents at the time claimed that Jolie’s request would do nothing but “hurt” their children. “Jolie’s abrupt cry of judicial bias reeks of bad faith and desperation, not to mention careless disregard for the procedural rules intended to root out legitimately conflicted judicial officers,” read the court documents, originally obtained by HollywoodLife.

ET reports their rescheduled trial is set to take place from October 5 to October 21.

What Scary Halloween Monster You Are, Based On Your Myers-Briggs Type

Well, we are deep into the Spooky Season, and you’ve gathered around my, uh, large cauldron (?) for one express purpose. What if I told you I had a list of all—that’s right, all of em!—the Myers-Briggs types as Halloween monsters? After all, what could be ~spookier~ than that level of sheer self-awareness? And what is a truer form of knowing oneself than the kind that comes from being assigned to one of 16 possible MBTI creatures of the night? In terms of tricks and treats, this kind of knowledge is a major treat, so you’re welcome in advance.

Halloween is the perfect time to look within and make plans with your inner monster. Should you spend your October 31 building your own best friend out of spare parts, howling at the moon or biting your neighbors?* There’s literally endless (OK, there’s 16) paths, and only one way to find out which is yours to take.

Allow me to set the scene. Crows begin to flock all around us while other seasonally-appropriate creatures do their various things as I unfold my scroll (Dusty tome? Ancient text? Use your imagination.) of personality test-based soothsayings. I have looked deep into your consciousness and assigned you a dark and wonderful Halloween monster based on my findings. Now, all you need to do is find the perfect monster Halloween costume to make my prediction a reality. The question is: Are you brave enough to read on?

*DISCLAIMER: Please do NOT bite your neighbors, regardless of what your Myers-Briggs Halloween monster is.
