The ‘no makeup makeup look’ has become increasingly popular in the beauty world. It’s a subtle and natural look that requires a lot of effort to achieve. Beyond just applying makeup, it is essential to take good care of your skin to ensure that it looks healthy, hydrated, and nourished.
This means following a proper skincare routine, staying hydrated, and eating a well-balanced diet. By doing so, you can create a flawless canvas that looks beautiful without needing much makeup.
Dr Soumi Dey Sarkar, Group Lead R&D at Simple Skincare, Hindustan Unilever highlights the importance of skin care in mastering this look. She says, “Essential to this is a healthy skin barrier and optimal ceramide production, crucial for a radiant appearance. Ceramides help maintain moisture and protect against environmental damage, ensuring smoother, more even-toned skin.”
She further went on to add, “To master the no-makeup makeup look, your skincare regimen is paramount. Begin with a 100% soap-free, refreshing facial wash to gently cleanse without stripping the skin of its natural moisture. Next, apply a calming toner to rebalance your skin’s pH levels, setting the stage for optimal absorption of subsequent products. Follow this with a hydrating hyaluronic acid serum, which dives deep into the skin’s layers, offering profound hydration and plumping effects. Seal in this moisture with a replenishing rich moisturiser, a formula designed to maintain hydration and ensure your skin remains supple and smooth throughout the day. ”
Siddha Jain, Chief Business Officer, Bombae, shares, “The no-makeup makeup look is an it-girl favourite! COVID brought with itself a lot of changes, but the one that stayed has been this. It shifted the focus from makeup to skincare and how. The idea is to get a glass-like glow with more skincare and less makeup. It is a great place to navigate a skincare routine that works for you while achieving flawless makeup.”
“One can start with a hydrating cleanser with ceramides that cleanses and repairs skin health. Follow it up with mild exfoliation every 2-3 days using a gentle face razor that is dermal-tested to effectively remove peach fuzz and exfoliate dead skin away. Shaving also opens pores for better skincare absorption which is a real game-changer when it comes to glowing skin. Follow up with a ceramide+ moisturiser and dewy SPF,” the expert added.
Do not forget, you can also add a little bit of blush to get a natural flush, with minimal eyeliner and mascara and voila! You have instantly glowing and healthy skin for days!
