So recently i have been really into cooking sweet cakes, biscuits and slices and today i was just popping into my local supermarket to pick up some almond meal for the macaroons i was making. Personally, i never cook with makeup on so when i needed to go out to the supermarket while cooking i was stuck between doing my makeup or not worrying when i realised that i didnt have to do my whole face and i could just apply some minimal makeup. This post is about the basic makeup you can wear when you want to put a little bit of makeup on but don't want to go overboard or even look like your wearing makeup. I thought i did this post before but when i looked back on my history i realised i didnt ever post it but only ever kept it as a draft because i felt i couldn't say enough. Now, through experiencing more times where i have needed to use the minimal makeup effect i have much more to share with everyone in these simple steps to perfecting a natural look.
1. Concealer: use this to prep your eyes and cover any trouble areas you have on your skin.

4. POWDER: either a natural loose powder applied with a kabuki brush or a light coverage powder like an MSF natural by MAC will give you nice natural looking skin and will work well with the concealer.

5. LIPS: for the lips perhaps a tinted moisturiser (eg. MAC, TLC), clear gloss or lipbalm would be a subtle shine or hint of colour as well as keeping your lips nice and moisturised.

After completing only 5 steps, you are left with a beautiful and natural simple makeup look. Easy, uncomplicated, requires only the basic pieces of makeup and achieves an amazing result.
